Chapter âWhy are you being quiet? Is Jerome caring for another woman making you sad again?â Celeste teased Mikayla when she saw her frowned thoughtfully.
Mikayla rolled her eyes at Celeste.
âDo you think a fiveâstar hotel would have such an accident for no reason?â
âIt shouldnât happen,â Celeste said. âDo you think thereâs something suspicious about Kylieâs Injury â
Suspicion was inevitable, but Jerome should have already investigated the cause.
If nothing was found, it meant Kylie had executed her plan perfectly.
Mikayla doubted she would anything even if she investigated.
Even if she did find something, Jerome would likely think she had ulterior motives, and even misunderstood that she couldnât let him go.
Anyway, it was Kylie who was hurt.
As long as she didnât care about Jerome, Kylieâs plan would have no impact on her.
âLetâs not talk about this anymore. I have some news to tell you!â Mikaylaâs tone brightened.
âWhat news?â
âJerome agreed to sign the divorce agreement. As long as Mrs. Miller Senior is not alarmed, itâs possible for us to get the divorce certificate tomorrow!â
Celeste was surprised.
âDid Jerome really agree to it? Didnât he say a few days ago that he needed the consent of both sideâs parents? How did he change his so quickly?â
Mikayla chuckled.
âHe just wanted to make things difficult for me. With Kylie seriously injured this time, heâs probably afraid that if it drags on, Iâll hurt Kylie even more.â
âHold on! Jerome suspects you are the one whoâs responsible for Kylieâs injury?â Celeste realized something. âIs he out of his mind? He knows you well. If you had a grudge against someone else, you wouldâve settled it right there. Why would you make such fuss?â
Mikayla was silent for a while before saying, âI canât tell if youâre complimenting me for being straightforward or mocking me for being brainless.â
Celeste ignored her playful remarks and asked, âKay, did you insist on getting a divorce because of this?
Mikayla was laying on her bed, flipping through a magazine.
She said casually, âItâs one of the reasons I canât explain everything. Anyway, weâre not compatible, donât want to be him marriage. Consider it a mutual liberation.â
Before she could finish speaking, Mikayla heard the door slam.
looked up and saw Jerome.
wasnât certain if he had overheard her conversation earlier, but his face was even colder and more forbidding than before Mikayla was about to question him about why he had returned, but his angered appearance made her swallow her words.
Jerome didnât say anything.
He walked to the bedside.
He took his pillow and grabbed his glasses and other belongings He then slammed the door again before leaving From entering to leaving, the entire thing happened for only a few seconds It was so fast that Mikayla didnât even have time to react âWhy did Jerome come in? Celeste seemed to be frightened âDid the two of you have a fight? His face looked so scaryâ
Mikalya walked over and locked the door.
She said annoyedly. âWho wants to fight with him? He was being sarcastic about my friends outside the steakhouse in the evening. He dragged me back home, and then heâs been staring at me like Iâm some strange creature. Forget about him. Did you see the photos I posted on Instagram?
âI didnât notice. Whatâs wrong? Celeste asked as she checked her Instagram. âHoly crap âWhat do you think? The photo looks very artistic, right?â Mikayla brushed her hair proudly âWhy is there a handsome guy? Celeste asked âA handsome guy?â
When Mikayla zoomed in the photo and took a closer look, she discovered that Michael was also in the photo Kenny took for her.
