“Lawyer has handled your divorce proceedings. The divorce proceedings are over, and you're officially a virgin widow."
Anita glared at her manager.
Manager ignored him.
"The lawyer is pretty good. Apparently, your ex-husband demands nothing and you don't suffer any material losses. Give me the phone number later, I'll look for it if I have a problem. The envelope I gave you came from a lawyer. He said you never went to get it. You know, shouldn't you be paying more attention? I think I'm the one who got divorced, not you.”
Without waiting for Anita to speak, she immediately regretted what she said and even slapped herself. He has been in a relationship with his wife for five years. They just got married this year. They are still in the honeymoon phase, and she is the lover of her heart.
Anita casually placed the envelope in the office drawer without seeing it at all.
“I don't know him, he doesn't know me. We don't have any connections, and we won't have them in the future. Isn't it natural for us to get divorced?”
Anita was sure of that.

Haris pushed the leftover marmot food forward. And Haris looked at her as if to say, 'you must eat.'
The cat reluctantly ate some bribes and then refused to eat more. He secretly ran towards Haris, tried to crawl into his arms, and acted spoiled.
Haris did not let go of her embrace. He touched his slightly swollen belly and stuffed the marmot into the cat's cage.
He simply put on a sweater and left by taking the cat outside to a special veterinary clinic.
Since it was late at night, there were not many people in the pet hospital. There was only one young man who brought his pigs to be vaccinated.
Soon, Haris's turn.
"What's the problem?" ask the veterinarian.
"Look at my cat's stomach swell like a pig's stomach and he's been eating little and not finishing his food lately."
"Give me your cat, I'll check it out."
After several examinations and ultrasonography, the haggard kitten crawled into Haris' arms as if he had been molested.
The doctor checks the examination results.
“Definitely ascites (A swelling in the abdomen caused due to fluid accumulation, often associated with liver disease). I am not sure if FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) is a viral disease in cats caused by feline coronavirus (FCoV) with the main forms of effusive (wet) and non-efusive (dry). Clinical symptoms in this case include anorexia, lethargy, jaundice, fever, and significant weight loss). We have to wait another two hours.”
He put the file away.
“I have to tell you, we generally recommend euthanasia (Euthanasia is an action that aims to eliminate one's suffering by ending one's life) if it is FIP. The death rate is 95%. There is currently no cure. We can only continue to provide care. Plus, the price is not low. And often times, the cat will remain sick even after spending the money of its owner.”
Haris nodded, revealing understanding.
"No matter how expensive, I want this marmot treated."
After a while.
"The last diagnosis indicates that your pet has FIP. It cannot be cured, but can be given treatment to relieve the symptoms until it can survive for a long time. As for the cost of treatment and treatment …."
Fortunately, he was able to make a lot and make money quickly at his job. Often, the tips alone can reach the same amount as a month's salary. Haris also did not have anything he needed to spend, so, even though he was not trying hard to save money, he still had a lot of money in his savings.
But all of his current savings would run out to finance the care of the Dragon Rabbit.
Haris went ahead and paid the cost of the first treatment session with a sore heart for losing a lot of money.
The doctor said, "I want to confirm your decision."
The vet took a deep breath and took out the *******.
“So, although the symptoms are not serious now, this requires long-term treatment, it cannot be stopped in the middle of the road. If in the end you can't afford to pay, I suggest stopping it. It would be better for you two–”
Haris cut off the doctor's talk.
“Please prescribe the medicine, please.”
He spoke bitterly, feeling sorry for the Dragon Rabbit.
If asked if he liked the cat or not, he would not be able to say that he liked the cat very much. However, when he accepted it, he had already decided to take responsibility for his life. Then no matter even if he went broke being poorer, he would still take care of his cat.
Haris rarely approached the cat, but this time he hugged his cat in his arms. The little cat formed a ball and enthusiastically licked Haris' palm.
Haris breathed. “Huh …! You are very unlucky right with your illness.”
Haris will not shirk his responsibilities at work, if he finds a lifestyle he feels comfortable with, he will still do it.
Haris is actually a rather lazy person.
However, he wouldn't change unless he really had to, as now. Even in her best days, her current salary and tips could only cover the cost of her cat grooming.
"It looks like I'll have to find a part-time job to earn some extra money."
"Swildering work ... Where should I propose? It's pretty hard to get a decent job because I'm just a SMU graduate in the world."
"Huran ...! I was an S1 graduate in my previous life."
"Oh, yeah, why don't I just take two shifts at the western restaurant where I work right now? One shift is about 5 hours, and two shifts are 10 hours. I can still bear it."
Haris put the Dragon Rabbit into the cat cage and went home.
Along the way, he thought of having other alternatives to earn money besides taking two shift jobs.
"I really have no other idea but to take two shifts at the restaurant I work at right now."
"Am I trying to get around the neighborhood tomorrow morning to see the vacancies?"
"Forget it, I need to rest and sleep because I'm tired. I'll think of another way tomorrow after I wake up."
Haris finally arrived at his home after walking away from the clinic.
Haris washed his face and took off his clothes and left only the boxer and fell asleep in bed.
