The Divorce Prescription Novel Free Online

---- Chapter 1153 Nathan straightened up and took a few steps back. Without saying anything, he turned around to leave. And just like that, he left. Michelle slowly opened her eyes, but the tears still kept rolling down from the corners, one heavy drop after another. Just then, a clear, lilting ringtone rang out. Someone was calling her. Michelle took out her phone to check and saw that it was Sabrina. She answered, and Sabrina's voice immediately came through the line. "Hello, Michelle." "Mom." "Michelle, that illegitimate girl came to see you again, didn't she?

Now that you're pregnant , that homewrecker and her bastard daughter are going crazy. The Landon family won't even let them through the door, and Landon Group has kicked them out, too! "As I watch them suffer like this, all the resentment and bitterness I've had in my heart finally eased a little." ---- Michelle stared blankly at the office ceiling. She didn't speak. "Michelle? Why aren't you saying anything?" "yes, Mom, I'm listening." "Michelle, you're pregnant now. Don't push yourself so hard at work.

You have to bring this child into the world safe and healthy." "Okay." "Michelle , I know how hard you've worked all these years. I know how much you've endured. The proudest thing I've ever done in my life is giving birth to you. You're my pride." Michelle tightened her grip on the phone. "Mom... I'll be fine. Don't worry." "Great." The call ended. Michelle slowly lowered her phone, sat up, and put it back into her bag. She lifted her gaze to the mirror. Her face was pale, and her gaze was hollow. For a moment, she couldn't even tell what she was thinking.

She had grown up in a family that was never whole, never warm. She didn't know what fatherly love felt like. ---- All she knew was that from the moment Sabrina had tried to take her own life, she couldn't afford to be weak anymore. She had to fight-fight that homewrecking bitch and her bastard daughter. In more than 20 years of living, she had never allowed herself to make a single mistake. She studied hard and worked hard. She never once had the luxury of falling in love. And when it was time for marriage, she simply followed Luis! arrangement and married Nathan.

Then the struggle reached its critical point, and she had to get pregnant. She felt like a machine-controlled, manipulated, and pushed along by invisible hands. And just now, when Nathan had forced her onto the desk - when he'd said that if he wanted, that he could abandon her and the child with a single sentence, that other women could give him a dozen kids... Her tears had fallen without warning, without restraint. Because, at that moment, she felt like a joke. All her effort felt like a joke. Even her entire life felt like one.

Acrushing exhaustion surged up so violently it almost swallowed her whole. After 20 years of holding herself ---- together, something inside her finally broke. Michelle cried for a long time. Then, she dragged her heavy, exhausted body home. The moment she stepped inside, Rosa hurried out to greet her. She asked with concern, "Michelle, you're back? Have you eaten?" Michelle nodded quietly. "It's alright, Rosa. I ate." Rosa offered, "I've made some clam chowder for you. Have some and then go rest." "Alright." Michelle sat at the dining table while Rosa brought the clam chowder over.

Michelle picked up the spoon and ate slowly. Honestly, she couldn't even taste it. All she knew was that after crying, life had to go on. She couldn't fall now. There were still too many things she needed to do. She needed the child in her womb, and she really did love this child. In her whole life, she had never truly owned anything. But this child... This child truly belonged to her. Just then, Rosa asked softly, "Michelle , where's Mr. Lynch? ---- Didn't he say he was picking you up from work?" Michelle's hand paused midair, the spoon in her hand trembling slightly.

Then she lowered her gaze and said calmly, "He went back to the office." She had no choice but to tell a white lie.
