‘’A-What?’’ ask Cordelia not to believe it.
Adam frowned at the sign of annoyance. ‘’I don't like to repeat my words Cordelia.’’
Cordelia's eyes glazed over as she smiled faintly. ‘’Adam, I liked you a lot from the beginning and it was sincere, then you said I only liked Raymond's family property? You .... You really hurt my feelings!’’
‘’Is what I said wrong?’’ ask Adam.
‘’Of course! I sincerely like you but you accuse me of liking your family treasure,’’ exclaimed Cordelia.
Adam pulled out his phone and showed it to Cordelia. ‘’Then what does this mean? You withdraw money from the account with the amount of 500 million nine times for what?’’
Mr. Moriarty and Mrs Mary gasped at Adam's words and looked straight at Cordelia.
‘’What?! Withdraw 500 million nine times? Cordelia?! What do you use that money for?’’ ask Miss Mary.
‘’Adam alone never spent that much money, but why are you so wasteful?!’’ reprimand Lord Moriarty.
Whahuh? How did Adam know? Didn't the card he gave me this I manipulated so as not to be caught. Damnit damnit! This way I will really be kicked out of the Raymond family, Cordelia said in her heart.
‘’Why are you quiet? Already run out of excuses?’’ ask Adam.
Cordelia prostrated herself at Adam's feet, causing Reon to swerve. His mother always threw away the pride to beg in front of the cold man.
‘’Someone threatened me!’’ peekik Cordelia's.
‘’Threatens after you send him 500 million money nine times? Don't you have a more reasonable excuse?’’ ask Adam.
‘’I was really threatened! Actually I was afraid to tell you, so I was forced to use the money from the card you gave me. He always sends out threatening messages. He said he'd destroy Raymond's family. I don't want that to happen, because it will affect our family. So I shut him up and sent him that kind of money to keep him quiet. If you don't believe me, the threat message is still on my phone,’’ Cordelia said.
The woman turned on her phone and was about to show the threat message. However, Cordelia did not show the message, Adam grabbed the phone and slammed it on the floor.
Bruk!
‘’Adam, what are you doing?!’’ cordelia.
‘’You still want to show me that threat message? Would it be easier if you confessed that the threat message was also part of your plan, or maybe the person who sent the threat message was your hit man? You two worked together to blackmail Raymond's family, because all the rights you have I'm gonna have to withdraw after we get divorced. So, after we split up, you still have the money,’’ Adam said.
Plaque! Plaque! Plaque!
Adam clapped his hands because Cordelia's plan was going to end perfectly as he had said.
‘’Adam, I was really threatened, why are you accusing me so badly?’’ isak Cordelia was disappointed.
‘’It's okay, I'll be in touch for the last time. The money also means nothing to me if I have to liken it to you,’’ said Adam.
The deg!
Cordelia's tears are falling. His heart was really hurt not playing because of the man before him. In fact, he liked Adam more than anything, but Adam treated him instead as a woman who had no price.
Cordelia looked down while squeezing her clothes. Everyone could see the woman's tear drop on the back of her hand. Adam who saw it was silent.
Reon bluffs his teeth while clenching a hand. Her eyes were already heating up from holding back the anger of seeing her mother being treated like that.
Cordelia's eyes glanced at a small hand clutching her hand. He raised his head and already saw Reon beside him with a stifled look on his face.
‘’Mother, let's go. Our place is not here,’’ Reon said.
Reon tried to defend his face, though a glimpse of his tears fell. ‘’I know Mom is worried about me. But I myself can't stand living in a sickening place like here either. So let's go.’’
Cordelia closed her eyes until she finally let out a long sigh. His eyes opened slowly. ‘’Alright, if that's your will.’’
Raymond's family stared at Cordelia and Reon who were about to leave.
‘’I won't let you go that easy,’’ Adam said.
‘’Master Adam himself wanted us to leave, then why block us? What do you want exactly?!’’ exclaim Reon.
Adam's eyes are squeaking. ‘’I'll just let you go after Cordelia signs the divorce papers. After that it's up to you.’’
At that time, Secretary Rey arrived with a map. The man handed the map to Adam. ‘’As per Young Master's order, his divorce papers are done.’’
Adam grabs a pen and signs the divorce papers and hands them over to Cordelia.
Cordelia looked at the letter while reading it. Her husband did not mess with her words. His hand squeezed the paper and was about to tear it apart.
‘’As far as you want to rip it off, it won't have any effect on our divorce papers, because both of our marriage books are in my hands,’’ Adam said.
Cordelia just woke up with her wedding book.
Why did I just think about the wedding book? If only I had hidden the marriage book of the two of us, then this divorce could have been avoided, Cordelia said in her heart.
Seeing Cordelia shut up, Adam coded Secretary Rey.
‘’What are you doing? Let go of me!’’ cordelia exclaimed who was being held by 2 bodyguards.
Adam took the letter and placed it on the table, then looked at Cordelia. ‘’If you don't want to sign it, then I will force you.’’
‘’Adam! It's called coercion! I'm going to leave this house with Reon, but I don't want to divorce you,’’ Cordelia said.
‘’Quickly force him to sign the divorce papers!’’ adam's orders.
Cordelia rebelled while clenching her hands to avoid opening them. Secretary Rey and the two bodyguards were overwhelmed forcing the stubborn Cordelia.
‘’Uhuk! Uhuk!’’ reon's cough made Cordelia turn.
His eyes were round and saw Adam lifting the collar around Reon's neck, making the boy choke so much that he coughed. ‘’Adam!’’
‘’Stop stalling my time, if you're like this then I'll take custody of Reon and you'll lose the rights to this kid,’’ Adam said intimidatingly.
‘’Uhuk! I don't want my custody in the hands of a cold guy like you!’’ pissed Reon.
Adam raised his eyebrows while looking at Reon. ‘’Who wants to take your custody? My words are not finished yet, the custody of you will I leave to your own biological father, Jeremy Marlo.’’
The deg!
Cordelia and Reon flinched. Adam looked back at Cordelia and further raised the neck collar behind Reon's shirt up making the boy cough.
Cordelia's hand clenched with a stifled look. He closed his eyes so tightly that he finally let out a rough sigh. ‘’Adam Raymond... Using Reon to force me, you really are a Devil! You don't have a conscience by treating a child like that, alright! I'll sign this divorce papers, but release Reon first!’’
Bugh!
Reon fell to the ground as Adam immediately let go of his grasp.
