Chapter 1686

The old lady’s decision stunned Neo. Neo looked straight at the old lady without

blinking. “D*mned old woman, you truly are very arrogant! Watch if I don’t...”

Just as the old man was about to make a move, he turned around and saw that the

old lady was holding a cleaver in her hand.

“It’s just slaughtering pigs, right? I am a butcher’s mother! I know how to do it! ” The

old lady looked at the old man with an expression as if she was looking at a stranger.

Neo was shocked. He did not expect that the old lady was being serious. She

returned to her room and wasted no time packing up all her things. It was just a duffel

bag full.

“It’s all of my clothes in this bag and nothing else,” said the old lady. She left after that.

She had already thought it through. She had stolen fifty thousand dollars from the old

man to pay for the grandson’s tuition fee, so she wouldn’t mind going to jail. After she

had left that house, the old lady found a hotel and stayed here.

The following day, she waited for two hours at the city hall. When she saw that the

staff were about to clock out, the old lady then made a call to Neo. “Why haven’t you

come to process our divorce?”

On the other end of the line, Neo was a little panicked. “You...you truly want to divorce

me?”

“Have you gone nuts?” said the old lady patiently.

Neo ignored the question. “You won’t even have a place to stay if you divorce me, so

why are you being so arrogant?”

“Does it matter to you whether I have a place to stay or not?” asked the old lady in

return.

Neo was speechless. The old lady continued. “I have inquired with others just now

that if you don’t come over to get divorced, I can unilaterally go to court and file for

divorce. If you are not present, our divorce will automatically take effect two years

from the date I file my suit.”

The old lady hung up as soon as she said that. Neo called again right after. “Do you...

want to reconsider? I...can forgive you for many things. As long as you come back

and admit that you were wrong, I can then forgive you, alright?”

The old lady smiled and said in a contemptuous and self-deprecating manner. “Mister

Teacher! Are you pretending to be confused? You are an educated person! It’s me

who left your house now. I have already moved my things away, and I am waiting for

you at the city hall to get divorced! It’s not me who goes to you to admit my mistakes

and then beg for your forgiveness. Do you hear me?”

After saying that, she immediately hung up the call. She truly had had enough! An

hour later, the city hall was already closed. Only then did Neo come slowly and later.

There were also two managers, a man and a woman, from the accommodation for the

faculty member, who came together with him.

“Madam Cecilia, what are you doing? How can you be so dramatic?” The female

manager was calling the old lady’s name and pulling on her arm to lead her out of the

city hall’s lobby.

The old lady looked at the female manager. “Me getting a divorce is being dramatic?”

The female manager softened her tone. “ Alright, alright, alright. Say, why did you

want to get divorced? You first tell me what’s going on and let me be the mediator for

both of you. If we have managed to reach common ground, then let’s not get

divorced, alright? You’re already an old married couple. It’s not worth it to have a fight

between a couple.”

The old lady hung her head. “I have nothing more to say. Since I can’t do it this

morning, then I’ll wait until the afternoon to get divorced.”

“Just think of it like US, two ladies chattering, alright?” The female manager kept

holding the old lady’s hand and not letting it go. “Tell me, how exactly did he mistreat

you? Tell me, and I’ll help you vent your grievances, alright?”

Neo, who was standing at the side, rolled his eyes at the old lady. “Say what you want

to say! Don’t use divorce to threaten others!”
