Chapter 444 Rachel Agreed On The Divorce

"Okay, I accept your conditions but you must bear the promise in mind." Chris agreed almost

immediately and said," I'll arrange everything for you and will meet you at the gate of Civil Affairs

Bureau at 8 am tomorrow. Once you finish the formality, I'll give you the credit card and ticket. Is it

okay?"

"OK," Rachel answered happily knowing she just landed a good deal. She had thought it through and

realized that it was the best decision she could make under the circumstances. After all she was still Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

young enough to start a new chapter abroad.

Rachel went home and packed up all her belongings including valuable jewelries and handbags, she

was preparing to take everything with her.

On their way home, Edward looked at Chris and said," Why did you agree to her terms?"

In Edward's mind, it felt like a waste giving Rachel even a penny let alone one million that Chris had

promised.

"Did I do something wrong?" Chris smiled and said to Edward," Isn't it worth it to get your freedom and

put an end to your concerns at a cost of one million?"

"But..." Edward frowned slightly. "I referred to the dowry my grandpa had prepared for me on purpose

so that you would tell me about the dowry you would give me."

"What?" Amazed, Edward looked at Chris. He couldn't believe that his beloved daughter cared and

thought only about his wealth.

Edward felt so crippled by sadness and he felt like he simply could not trust anyone any more.

"Please let me finish what I am saying before you react..." Chris continued with an assuring smile," I

was really very angry and upset when you decided to marry Rachel. I cared about you so I was

constantly worried that she might cheat you, I feared that she would take away your ability to love and

also your wealth. With that, I decided to do something to help you so that at least you wouldn't lose

everything when you face her reality. I considered for a long time and finally decided to keep your

wealth in the form of dowry, which would be inaccessible for her."

Chris added," I planned to keep everything you gave me aside just in case you were cheated by her.

But I didn't expect Rachel to show her true colors so soon that I just took an action."

Chris went on with a bright smile," I didn't expect that would happen so soon. With that said, I found it

worthy to buy your peaceful life hereafter with one million."

Edward was so moved by her thoughtful and loving gesture that he was rendered speechless. His

beloved daughter helped him so much secretly even when he constantly chose Rachel and didn't listen

to her warnings. He felt so sorry for her and yet guilty about everything.

He had never taken care of her by himself. On the contrary, Chris was the one who was always

concerned for him once they were reunited.

He let out a sigh. "I owe you too much, child," he said with gratitude.

"Don't say that, Dad!" Chris said with a warm smile. "As along as Rachel is far away from you,

everything I did is worthwhile.

Edward was so moved by Chris' kind words. From now on, he would try his best to compensate her to

ensure that she would lead a happy and fruitful life.

"Autumn!" As she entered the house, Chris yelled out ecstatically at Autumn who was eating fruits on

the sofa. Autumn was scared by Chris' sudden loud voice and asked," What happened? Is everything

okay?"

Chris gave Autumn a big warm hug and kissed her on her cheeks, and then she said," Autumn, I found

Rachel. Thank you so much. I don't know what I would have done without your help!"

"Really? I am so relieved and happy to hear that." Autumn also got excited for Chris. "So how did you

deal with the entire situation?"

"I exchanged my father's freedom from her for a million. Rachel agreed to process the formality of

divorce with my father tomorrow morning. I am so relieved." Chris' joy was very clearly reflecting on her

face. She looked at Autumn and said," Autumn, it's completely your contribution that helped me solve

this issue. From now on, if you have any trouble, I'll spare no efforts to help you."

Autumn said with an assuring smile," We are family and we should always help and support one

another."

"My father strongly believed that." Chris smiled and added," He said that he misunderstood you

because of Rachel's lies. He felt embarrassed to apologize to you so he let me speak on his behalf. He

also said that he would give you a big gift the day your baby is born."

"Oh that is alright. Now the only thing you need to do next is to prepare your wedding." Autumn advised

her in a playful tone.

"It's time for dinner." Nancy had already prepared the dinner and said to Autumn," Mrs. Lu, I saw an old

lady selling silky fowls in the market and they looked pretty good as they were raised by the woman

herself, so I bought one and have been stewing for about six hours. Please drink some soup. It will be

beneficial for the babies and you."

"Okay, I will surely do that." Autumn answered gratefully as she reflected upon Nancy's dedication.

Chris looked into the room and asked," Where is my brother?"

"He just called to let me know that he needs to work in the company late tonight and we should not wait

for him to have dinner." Autumn said in a calm tone. She asked," Chris, what is the destination of

Rachel's flight?"

"Europe." Chris said indifferently," She very clearly said that she wanted to go to Europe."

"Is that so?" Autumn smirked and said," Why not..."

Autumn drew closer to Chris' ear and said a place, then she looked at Chris with rapture. Chris was a

little shocked, but she burst into laughter soon after. She couldn't help holding her belly with hands to

stop her laughter and said," Autumn, you are so bad."

She would expect Rachel to get annoyed as she saw the ticket.

"She had done so many evil things with our family and now it's our turn to play a little prank with her..."

Autumn answered in a naughty and yet hushed tone.

"OK! Let's do it." Chris agreed happily.

The next day's morning, Chris dressed up and picked Edward up to go to Civil Affairs Bureau. They

met Rachel the moment they arrived. Rachel was armed to the teeth and complained," Why weren't

you here by 8:00? It is so late now."

Chris checked the time. It was 8:20. She smiled and said," Let's go inside now, better late than never."

There was a traffic jam on their way so they arrived late. However, Rachel found fault with them for

such a trivial and non-consequential matter.

Rachel stopped her as she was about to enter the gate and blurted out," Wait! Have you prepared all

the things I requested for?"

"Of course, it is all ready." Chris cast a scornful glance at Rachel and said," There is one million in this

card. It has no password and it will be yours right after you finish the divorce formality."

Rachel felt reassured when she checked the card and ensured that there was one million in the card.

Chris sneered and said," The ticket is for 10 am on the day after tomorrow. Do you want to check this

as well?"
