Chapter 19: Where Have Things Gone Wrong?
If it was not for the fact that he had seen the usual shoes that Rachel would wear in the front porch, he
would have thought that he had rang the doorbell to somebody else’s house.
“Mr. Kenneth.” Osmond extended his hand, and showed a friendly smile towards Kenneth. “We met in
H & Y Hotel previously. I’m Osmond Cox, I’m Rachel’s senior.”
When he revealed this, Kenneth only recall that previously when he was having lunch with clients in H
& Y Hotel, he bumped into Osmond and Rachel, and they seemed close as they laughed and bantered
cheerfully. Their relationship might be more than senior and junior.
Kenneth immediately felt uncomfortable, but in order to feign politeness, he reluctantly shook hands
with Osmond and said, “I’m Kenneth Shawn.”
When he saw a little girl who was playing with a tablet on the sofa, he threw a glance at Osmond,
thinking that she must be his daughter. Strangely, he felt relieved at this fact.
Theresa and Rachel were scurrying around in the kitchen as Kenneth walked towards them. He asked
Rachel, “Do you need any help?”
“It’s okay, you are the guest. Please wait in the living room.”
Seeing that Rachel did not even look at him while speaking, Kenneth’s brows were tightly knitted
together.
He could sense that this was not just a meal.
In a blink of an eye, a whole table of delicacies were served, and everyone took their seats around the
table.
Theresa pulled Osmond over and whispered something in his ears. Kenneth learnt that Osmond was
Chapman’s former disciple, and now he was divorced.
It seemed that Theresa was fond of Osmond, she was seen sending some dishes into his bowl. She
did not seem to acknowledge Kenneth’s existence, but the ambience around the dining table was not This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
entirely heavy although it was not good either.
After everybody had finished eating, Rachel finally made her move.
Rachel placed the divorce certificate in front of Kenneth with a calm expression on her face, “Kenneth, I
hope you can sign this.”
“Haven’t we agree that we will discuss about this?” Kenneth confirmed his suspicion that this was not a
simple meal, but he did not think that it would come to this. He said, “Tell me now, why did you go to my
office and leave behind the ring without saying anything?”
When he was back to his office, Rachel was already gone for some time. Sabrina pointed at the rings
on the table and said with difficulty, “Ken, I was thinking to show Rachel around while waiting for you to
come back. She did not look too happy, she just left behind this ring and left. She asked me to pass on
this to you.”
He had just gone for business trip for a week, nothing special had happened since then, so he was
confused as to why she was dead set on leaving behind the ring?
Where had things gone wrong?
“That ring was bought by you, and now we are going to part ways, there’s no point for me to keep it.”
Rachel did not want to reveal the lies and make things awkward in front of everybody. “I hope that you
can keep in mind that our marriage has lasted three years, and sign on the divorce certificate.”
There was a burning sensation in Kenneth’s throat as he felt wronged. “Why do you have to do this?
You also know that we have married for three years.”
He was always thinking that after four years, both of them would part peacefully. It was just that Rachel
suddenly made her move out of nowhere, and he couldn’t swallow this fact.
And he couldn’t find a reason for not willing to resign himself to this fact.
“That’s because I have fallen in love with somebody else.” Rachel shot a glance at Osmond, her eyes
full of tenderness. “The person that I love is someone who will sincerely treat me well, sincere in our
marriage and there will not be any dealings before marriage.”
Kenneth saw through her tricks and he suddenly understood everything. He remembered that he had
requested for someone to help Chapman, but in the end the loot had been returned, and judgement
had fallen on Chapman. His face gradually darkened.
“Does that mean that you also borrowed two million yuan from him?”
Seeing that Rachel had remained silent, Kenneth suddenly felt angry, “Rachel, it doesn’t mean that I
have done nothing even if I didn’t tell you anything. I just want you to tell me on your own accord. Now
you are even borrowing money from an outsider, you’re excellent!”
Osmond quickly shielded Rachel, afraid that Kenneth would do something reckless because of his
anger.
“Mr. Kenneth, Rachel has already made up her mind. I hope that you can respect her, and part ways
peacefully.”
Kenneth’s dark and depthless eyes were locked onto Rachel who was standing behind him.
The crumpled divorced certificate was reluctantly being restored on the tea table by him.
