Chapter47
After getting into the car, she could not help but mutter, “Nigel, it must be Lottie’s doing. She never liked me to begin with.““How else do you think it could be such a coincidence? Coincidentally, she left from house Archie before we arrived.”
“Did she dislike you, or did you dislike her?”
Nigel narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “I’ve said it many times. She doesn’t have as many thoughts as you think.”
Esther gripped the hem of his coat tightly and looked at him steadily. He saw that his eyes were red. “Why do you always trust her unconditionally?”
“Esther,”
Nigel pinched his eyebrows lightly. “The police still pay attention to evidence when handling cases. What do you think she said? Where’s the evidence?“““Do you still need evidence?”
Esther sniffed and said firmly, “She has never been on good terms with me. Coincidentally, she’s Archie’s student and happened to go to Archie’s house before us…”
Nigel said, “If the police work like you, how many people will
Chapter47
die unjustly?”
“I-”
Seeing that she was still not convinced, Nigel’s patience ran out bit by bit. He was a little helpless. “Why don’t you stop learning
from traditional medicine and become a screenwriter?”
As he spoke, Lottie’s figure suddenly appeared in his mind.She
either went to the clinic or fiddled with the things she liked at
home. She never spent time on these things.
The little girl was very simple–minded.
Thinking of this, he glanced out of the car window and suddenly said, “Chester, stop by the side.”
He got out of the car and walked into a dessert shop to buy a strawberry cake.
When Esther saw this, the anger in his heart dissipated a little. He reached out to take it. “For the sake of the cake, I forgive
what you just said…”
“For Lottie.”
Nigel avoided her actions and placed it in the empty front
passenger seat. “She’s young and likes to eat these sweet things.
Chapter47
Aren’t you controlling sugar?”
Esther looked at him in shock.
The man was as gentle and handsome as ever. He had clearly
not changed at all.
She thought for a long time in a daze and suddenly understood.
Perhaps his heart had changed.
He kept saying that he treated Lottie as his younger sister, but in
the end… he realized that he was tempted and did not know
it.Her nails dug into her palms as she looked at Nigel in
dissatisfaction. This time, she did not ask him if he was
interested in Lottie.
“Are you so good to every friend’s sister?”
“She fell out with Lewis to marry me.”
Nigel felt that her question was unnecessary. “Shouldn’t I be
nice to her?”
Back home, Lottie took a hot shower. Just as she was drying her
hair, Nancy walked in with a plate of cherry and stuffed it into
her mouth. “Tell me, what happened?”
Chapter47
“Yes?”
“Although you’re not too unhappy.”
Nancy took out a piece of paper for her to spit out the seeds. “But my sharp eyes can still tell that you’re not in a good mood.”
Lottie could not help but laugh.
Her life, she sometimes thought, wasn’t so bad after all.Her teacher’s wife treated her very well and had a good friend, Nancy.
She put the hairdryer aside. “Do you know who I bumped into when I came out of the teacher’s house?”
“Who?”
“Nigel and Esther.”
Lottie pursed his lips. “He’s going to pave the way for Esther. He
wants the teacher to take Esther in as a student.”
She couldn’t tell what she was feeling.All in all, it was suffocating.
Nigel became familiar with her teacher because she was the
middleman.
Chapter47
She never thought that he would use this relationship to
matchmake his sweetheart.
It wasn’t that she was sad….
“What is Nigel thinking? Is he slapping your face? At the end of
the day, you haven’t gotten your divorce certificate yet. Isn’t he being too open?” Nancy was a little angry.
‘Right.It was like being slapped in the face.
This feeling was not good.
After saying that, Lottie felt much better. He let out a long breath. “I guess only Esther knows what he’s thinking.”
“What about the divorce papers?”
Nancy wished she could get out of this terrible marriage as soon
as possible. “When exactly is his mother going to send it over?”
“I just asked him today. He said it’ll be soon.““I’m not lying, am I?”
“I won’t”
Erin looked like a friendly person, but he was actually very shrewd and decisive.
Since she had already asked for so much in front of Erin, she
Chapter47
would not be the daughter–in–law Erin wanted.
Right now, Erin was probably more eager to get a divorce
certificate than her.
