A Divorce Make Me Rich

Blatantly acting like a hooligan.

“Let go of me, I’m going to call for help.”

“Do you think anyone would dare to come into this ward at this time?” Anthony responded calmly.

Just as Mavis was figuring out how to escape, he suddenly let her go without warning.

“Alright, let’s not waste any more time.”

His quick change in demeanor shocked her.

It sounded like she was intentionally wasting his time.

“Turn around!”

Mavis scrubbed his back vigorously as if releasing her anger from earlier.

The next day.

Anthony felt refreshed after cleaning and having Mavis rest with him. It felt like winning a competition for affection and he was in high spirits.

He even contacted Chad and truthfully reported the progress from last night, waiting for him to give some advice on how to proceed further.

Chad: [If you want your relationship to progress further, you need something romantic that will move her.]

Anthony thought about it carefully and agreed with him. [What should I do?]

Chad: [Women love jewelry and handbags so just send some over.]

Of course he had planned on sending gifts but she probably didn’t need those things and it wouldn’t show enough sincerity. Anthony felt that this wasn’t enough by far.

Anthony: [That’s not sincere enough.]

With just five words, he rejected the idea.

Chad slapped his forehead on the other side of the phone screen, then quickly typed out a message saying, “I’ve got it! Let’s plan something more romantic!” He ended with an emoticon of an eyebrow-raised Shiba Inu watching intently.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

After listening carefully to Chad’s detailed plan, Anthony thought it could work.

As for buying all the necessary items? That pressure fell naturally onto Kane’s shoulders.

“Mr. Callahan why do you need so many roses? Is our company expanding into new businesses?”

Kane was confused; thousands of roses would cover an entire acre!

“No.”

“Oh! I know! You’re helping farmers right? Lately I’ve been seeing lots of livestreams about helping farmers. Mr. Callahan, you’re truly such a kind-hearted person!”

Kane kept praising him without realizing that Anthony had no concept of quantity whatsoever.

“Stop talking nonsense.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Kane ran off quickly outside.

“Daddy, are you trying to surprise Mommy?” The little one who had been silent until now suddenly spoke up.

Anthony couldn’t help but give him an approving look; truly worthy son following in father’s footsteps!

“Do you want me to help you?”

“Of course,” the father and son agreed with a clap of their hands.

Anthony was in charge of setting up the scene, while Alistair was responsible for keeping Mavis company to prevent her from accidentally discovering the surprise.

However, Anthony found himself lost in thought as he sat alone in the room. The simple roses didn’t feel special enough. He needed something more unique.

An idea struck him and he immediately had someone bring him $10, 000 in cash and called for twenty men to come to the hospital room with him.

Thankfully, there was a VIP floor where they could work without drawing too much attention. Otherwise, their conspicuous group of black-suited men standing at over six feet tall would have surely caused alarm among onlookers.

But then things took an unexpected turn as these burly bodyguards began clumsily folding bills into rose shapes. They looked out of place trying to do such delicate work inside a hospital room.

Despite this setback, Anthony personally got involved and they couldn’t really complain about it anymore.

After several hours of struggling through it all together, they finally finished folding all the roses. The rough-looking men breathed sighs of relief that they were done with such tedious work; running ten miles would have been more enjoyable than this!

As soon as they finished making paper flowers out of money bills on one end, Kane arrived with real roses on another end.

Only then did Anthony start slowly designing how he wanted everything arranged; first laying down real roses on top of the bed before placing his folded creations atop them all.

The entire room was instantly filled with an air of opulence and indulgence.

With everything in place, Anthony then had someone notify Alistair. Bringing Mavis over was now the little one’s task.

“Mommy! I want chocolate!”

“Then let’s go buy some.”

“No need! Daddy has lots upstairs already! He bought so many chocolates just for me!”

Without a hint of suspicion, Mavis followed him upstairs.

Strangely, Anthony was unusually quiet today, not acknowledging her the entire morning.

With Alistair leading the way, she trailed closely behind.

Upon reaching the doorway, the little one suddenly halted in his tracks.

Biting his finger and looking down, he stammered softly, “Mommy, I sneaked out to play secretly… um… I’m afraid Daddy might get mad. Can you walk in front of me?”

The little one tilted his head, blinking his beautiful blue eyes, his face radiating sincerity.

“Of course.”

Mavis walked ahead of him, entering the room.

She was met with the fresh scent of flowers and a striking visual of vibrant red.

At that moment, she stood frozen in place. It was hard to tell if she liked it or not, and everyone in the hospital room held their breaths waiting for her reaction.

“Mommy, this is a surprise Daddy prepared just for you!” Alistair quickly spoke up on Anthony’s behalf, afraid that she wouldn’t appreciate it.

The whole room was decorated like this and must have taken some time to prepare. Mavis never expected Anthony to be so thoughtful.

“But…” She furrowed her eyebrows seriously and officially criticized, “Roses and coins are really tacky.”

Although there was a slight emotional tremor in her heart, she didn’t release what was held at all.

“Tacky?”

Anthony immediately wanted to message Chad about his terrible idea. He probably didn’t want the necklace worth over 10 million anymore.

“Well… tacky!”

As tough as Mavis’ mouth was, her body was equally honest. She couldn’t help but bend down to touch those flowers while the smile on her lips refused to fade away.

“Mommy, you have a sharp tongue but a tender heart!”

Alistair looked up at Mavis with bright eyes and saw through everything from his perspective.

On the other side…

Moore grew increasingly uneasy lying on his hospital bed after being hospitalized. He could feel that he hadn’t gotten any closer with Mavis since then. Instead, Anthony seemed much closer with her now than before while he couldn’t even stand up yet after such severe injuries!

Thinking about how he had inadvertently helped them get together made him feel even more anxious inside than ever before!

He couldn’t sit around waiting for such an outcome. Therefore Moore tried contacting Bryleigh again. Upon hearing that Mavis might not be coming to the upstairs ward anytime soon, a familiar figure appeared at the doorway of the sickroom.

“Bryleigh! You finally came.”

Thank goodness he wasn’t alone fighting this battle anymore…

“How are you doing? Are you feeling better?”

Moore smirked slightly without actually smiling, “Same old same old… nothing’s changed much except they seem to have made progress with their relationship.”

“I’ve realized it too. If I had known you were so severely injured, I wouldn’t have inadvertently helped the two of them. I shouldn’t have taken that risk back then.”

Bryleigh’s expression was a clear display of regret.

If not for that, Moore could have been of much greater help to her. She wouldn’t have been left to toil and struggle alone, expending so much effort just to break them apart.

“What do you mean? What’s this ‘taken that risk’ you’re talking about?”

Moore keenly picked up on those words.

Could it be that he was lying here now all thanks to Bryleigh’s actions?
