Chapter71
She had taken the house and money for real. She was willing to cooperate with him to sign a contract.After dinner, she returned to the outpatient room and left with her bag.
Mathis family’s old residence was very quiet at this time.
Zhou Erma had the habit of taking an afternoon nap. He was also a light sleeper. The servants did things quietly and did not dare to make any noise.
As soon as Lottie arrived, he was led to the tea room by the butler.
Because of her exorbitant demand last time, Erin’s attitude was much colder. He handed the agreement that he had prepared long ago to her.
“Sign it.”Lottie’s smooth fingertips held the first page of the contract and gently flipped it open. He went straight to the point and asked, “When will the divorce certificate be completed?”
“Are you in such a hurry?”
Erin stared at her as if he had never seen her clearly. “Have you
Chapter71
been wronged to marry into our Mathis family? Lottie, ask.
yourself honestly. All these years, has Mathis family ever
mistreated you!”
This sentence sounded especially familiar to Lottie.
After reacting for a while, he remembered that he had just
heard Shang Erma mention it the last time he returned to
Pollard family.
Everyone asked this question confidently in front of her.’What
about her?”
Did she mistreat anyone?
But she didn’t want to be dragged back and forth between
questions that required self–incrimination.
Lottie lowered his eyes slightly and said emotionlessly, “Erin, it
doesn’t affect me much if the divorce certificate is delayed.”
“But this will affect your ability to find a wife for Brother Nigel.
Which normal family would allow their daughter to interact
with a married man?”
These words hit the nail on the head. Her expression improved a
little. “Don’t worry, I’m more anxious about the divorce
certificate than you are. It’ll be around Grandma’s eightieth
Chapter71
birthday at the latest.””
‘Soon, then!
The Ermath birthday was in four days.
Lottie did not ask anything else. His fingertips landed on one of the terms of the agreement. “If this is not changed, I can’t sign it.”
The clause states that Lottie shall not inform Nigel about the
divorce until Erin allows it.
It was normal here.However, the latter half of the sentence was
that if Nigel knew about the divorce in advance, it would be
considered a breach of contract. The penalty would be 50
million yuan.
Before Erin acted up, Lottie spoke methodically.
“I can only guarantee that I won’t volunteer this information to
Nigel, but if he guesses or finds out from someone else, it’s out of
my hands.”
“If you don’t say anything and I don’t say anything, where else
would he find out?”
Erin was naturally unwilling to change it. “Lottie, our Mathis
family yuan is not a big deal…”
Chapter 71
Before she could finish speaking, Lottie’s phone suddenly
rang.Caller ID Nigel.
As soon as she picked up the call, Nigel’s voice came through.
“Lottie, why are there rumors about our divorce?”
Lottie did not deliberately avoid Erin. Both of them heard what he said.
Erin frowned and warned her not to tell the truth.
She pursed her lips slightly and said in a guilty tone, “Who’s
spreading the news? How can I get a divorce alone?”
“Where are you?““I’m having tea with Mom at the old
residence.” Lottie’s tone was obedient.
Hearing this, Nigel felt a little more at ease. He looked at the time. “Then I’ll pick you up when I’m done later.“”
“Okay“”
Lottie agreed obediently. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Erin. “Look, I didn’t say that.”
Erin took a deep breath and asked the butler to call the lawyer in and change the terms on the spot.After signing the
Chapter71
agreement, Zhou Erma’s voice came from the living room.
Erin explained, “Grandma’s blood pressure has been unstable. I
haven’t told her about the divorce yet. Don’t let it slip.“”
Lottie agreed and went out to drink tea and chat with Erma.
Erma did like her. He held her hand and kept nagging.
As she spoke, Lottie took her pulse and could not help but
remind her, “Grandma, you have a basic illness. You have to pay
more attention to your diet. You must not eat meat, fish, and
oil.”
“Aiya, why are you the same as Erin? Don’t nag at
Grandma!“Erma pretended to be angry and looked at her, trying
to use his status as an elder to suppress her.
“Grandma.”
Suddenly, a sound came from the entrance. Nigel walked in
slowly and said gently, “Lottie is also worried about your
health.”
The man was tall and slender. He was dressed in a dark gray
suit and looked refined. His facial features were handsome and
outstanding.
