Chapter 422 Divorce Agreement
Chapter 422 Divorce Agreement
The man slightly bent down, with a business card in his hands, and handed it to Julie. He introduced himself, "I'm Lawyer Jin of Blue Sky Law Firm. I'm entrusted by Mr. Jack and find Miss Rachel."
Standing at the top of the stairs, Rachel heard the sound clearly.
'Lawyer?
Why did he come to me?'
She walked up and said, "I am Rachel. What's wrong?"
Lawyer Jin pointed to the room and said, "May I come in and have a seat?"
Rachel asked Julie to get a cup of water. When she turned back to the kitchen, she took a look at the golden lawyer who was drinking tea leisurely and asked, "Lawyer Jin, what are you doing here?"
Lawyer Jin put down the teacup, took out a document from his briefcase, put it on the table, and said lightly, "Mr. Jack entrusted me to deal with your divorce affairs. This is your divorce agreement. Please have a look. If there is no problem, sign your name at the back."
On the white cover, several black divorce agreements were particularly conspicuous. Rachel's hands were trembling slightly. She opened the agreement and read it carefully. But gradually, she only felt that her eyes became blurred. She quickly put it down and stood up. "Sorry, I have to go to the bathroom." This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
She leaned back against the door and bit her lower lip to stop herself from crying. It turned out that he was so eager to divorce her.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Rachel closed her eyes and directly threw herself on her face with cold water in both hands. Then she slowly calmed down, walked out of the bathroom and looked through the agreement in front of her again. Pointing at one of the agreements, she asked coldly, "What does
this term mean? This divorce agreement doesn't come into force immediately, but after I give birth to the baby? "
Lawyer Jin nodded and said in a deep voice, "Yes, it is clearly stated that this agreement will come into force after the child is born."
He paused, looked at the expression on Rachel's face and continued to explain, "During this period of time, you must live in the same room with Mr. Jack, and you can't refuse his request at all. In this way, after divorce, you will have the custody of the child, or else, the custody of the child will belong to Mr. Jack."
What a domineering agreement!
Rachel refused without hesitation. "I don't agree. We has said that as long as I stay here until the baby is born, I will have the custody."
Lawyer Jin smiled and said, "That's just an oral agreement between you two. You should know that these oral promises have no legal effect. Moreover, before I came here, Mr. Jack also told me that it doesn't matter if you don't agree. Then you have to live here all your life and can't go anywhere!"
Rachel's eyelids twitched and the corners of her mouth twitched. There seemed to be smoke above her head. In the final analysis, Jack regretted that he wanted to take back the custody of the child, so he proposed such a divorce agreement!
At this moment, she couldn't help regretting not signing an agreement with him at the beginning.
The idea of sitting down and having a good talk with him, which had just sprouted, was directly trampled under his feet and destroyed.
After a moment of silence, she picked up the pen and said, "I'll sign it!"
She had no other choice!
With the agreement sent by Lawyer Jin in his hand, Jack felt mixed feelings when he looked at the last page of the agreement, on which there was the signature of Rachel.
He closed the agreement and handed it to Lawyer Jin. "Put it away first. Remember, don't let anyone else know about it!"
"I won't." Lawyer Jin carefully put the documents away. Seeing that Jack waved at him, he turned around and walked out of the ward.
Sitting on the sofa in a daze, Rachel didn't respond Julie when she came out and was about to ask her what she wanted to eat for dinner. Then Julie walked up and gently pushed her shoulder.
She trembled and slowly came to her senses. The moment she curved the corners of her mouth, tears spilled over her eyes uncontrollably.
"Miss, are you okay? What's wrong?" Julie was startled and thought she was not feeling well. She quickly reached for the phone on the side and said, "Please hold on. I'll call the ambulance right away."
"I'm fine."
Rachel didn't know why, but she had never been like this.
No matter how sad she was, she would eventually endure it. Besides, wasn't this the result she had been looking forward to?
Now she was about to reach her goal. Why did he feel so sad?
She wiped her eyes with one hand, held her waist with the other, and slowly stood up. "Julie, I'm a little sleepy. I want to go upstairs and have a rest."
Perhaps, only when she fell asleep could she forget these messy things.
She had slept for more than ten hours until eight o'clock in the morning of the second day. When she woke up, she felt a little dizzy. When Julie came in, she saw an abnormal flush on her face. She quickly raised her hand and gently touched her forehead. It was a little hot. "Miss, you have a fever. Get up quickly. Let's go to the hospital."
"I'm fine."
Rachel forced a smile. At this moment, she felt so weak that she even felt tired to say a word.
She put the pillow behind her back and said, "Now that I am pregnant, I can't take the antibiotic pills. It's the same whether I go to the hospital or not. Can you help me to buy some medical alcohol?"
"Okay."
Although Julie didn't know what she wanted to do and agreed directly, she was still worried about her staying at home alone. Before leaving, she called Lea.
As soon as Lea heard that Rachel had a fever, she jumped up from the bed immediately, and even the quilt on the bed fell to the ground. Feeling so cold, she shivered and was asked by Henry, "What are you doing?"
"Rachel has a fever. I have to go there right now." Lea threw the quilt on the bed and went to the cloakroom barefoot, without putting on her shoes.
Seeing her in a hurry, Henry was still worried. I sat up and opened my eyes. "Slow down. I'll drive you there."
On the way, Henry couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you let us talk about the matter of Rachel to Jack before?"
"She asked me to do that. I don't know the specific reason." Lea signed and turned to look at Henry. "Did we do the right thing?"
"I don't know." Henry frowned and answered truthfully.
It was said that it was difficult for a clean official to solve the family affairs, not to mention the emotional entanglement between the two people.
When they arrived at the gate of the villa, Henry whispered, "I'll go to the hospital to see Jack."
Lea nodded, turned around, pushed open the iron door of the villa yard and walked inside. Julie told her on the phone that she had hidden the key under the carpet at the door. She opened it and saw a key under it.
After she opened the door and entered the room successfully, Lea hurried to the bedroom on the second floor. She saw that Rachel was leaning against the head of the bed, her face had already been a little red, and she was holding a thermometer, on which the number thirty-nine was clearly shown on the screen.
Lea asked her, "Are you all right?"
"I just feel a little dizzy." Rachel patted Lea on her hand and tried to calm down. "I remember there are some ice cubes in the refrigerator downstairs. Can you help me take them out and put them in a plastic bag?"
Lea nodded. When she stood up, she saw a document on the bedside table. Subconsciously, she reached out her hand to pick it up, but Rachel picked it up even faster. She pulled it over and put it on the side. Her expression was a little strange. "It's just a document in the hospital. There's nothing to look at."
Henry drove to the hospital and walked into the ward. He came here to tell Jack what had happened to Rachel.
However, he didn't expect that Tracy and Scarlett were both in the ward.
He greeted him with a smile and winked at him deliberately, "Jack, I have something to tell you about the company."
He had hoped that he could ask Tracy and Scarlett to go out for a while, but unexpectedly, Jack just said lightly, "Let's talk about the company's affairs after I discharge from the hospital."
He avoided it directly.
Henry frowned and said directly, "Actually, I have something to tell you today, she..."
As soon as he finished his words, Jack's face suddenly darkened and interrupted him coldly, "No matter what happens, let's talk about it after I leave the hospital. I'm not in the mood to listen to these messy things now."
Henry was a little confused. He couldn't figure out Jack's attitude at once. The relationship between the two before was clearly seen by them. Even if there was any misunderstanding between them, it would be over now.
But now he had such an attitude.
Henry frowned deeply.
On the other side, Tracy's face changed again and again. She took a deep breath secretly, fearing that Henry would tell Jack everything about Rachel.
Seeing Jack's retort, she breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Henry and said, "Henry, I feel a little uncomfortable in my waist. I want to go home and have a rest, but the driver can't come here in a short time. Could you please send me back?"
Jack didn't say anything. After taking a strange look at her, Henry nodded at Tracy.
It had been cloudy and rainy these days in Ning City, but it finally cleared up today. The sun was not strong, but it made the carriage warm without turning on the air conditioner.
Although Henry and Jack had a good relationship, he didn't have much contact with his parents.
When Henry sent her home, he kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything. On the contrary, after a while, Tracy suddenly heaved a long sigh.
