Chapter 15 Goddess Level Figure

When Maggie was two years old, she accidentally broke Joey's watch. Joey was furious. He didn't do anything, but Maggie was so scared that she had a high fever in the middle of the night.

She stayed in the hospital for seven days and nights, and even the people in the old house were alarmed. As she carried Maggie home tiredly, but he said coldly, "where have you been with the child?"

She held the baby in her arms stiffly and went upstairs, like a walking dead

After that, she didn't expect anything more. She just wanted her child to grow up well. There were more and more rumors about Joey. She endured all the unfairness of this marriage, and she had no complaints about his coldness and rudeness. As long as the child was not hurt, she was willing to bear everything.

But then Sally came back. she was extremely afraid. She was afraid that Joey would show such disgusting eyes again and that he would hurt Maggie. She knew that the child was the only connection between her and Joey. If she lost the child, the two of them would be like passers-by.

So she took the initiative to ask for a divorce, so that he didn't have to be embarrassed, and the people in Gu Family's old house would not say anything. She left with the child, so that Sally and Joey could go out together with the two of them aboveboard.

In this way, she and Maggie wouldn't have to be looked down upon by Joey anymore.

It was a good idea, but she had overestimated herself and underestimated Joey's feelings for Sally. Joey didn't want to let her go at all. SH even used her child to humiliate her, regardless that Maggie was his biological daughter.

Lois lowered her eyes. She didn't care about anything else. As long as Joey was willing to give her the baby, she could bear whatever he did.

The lunch ended in silence. Lois took the card to pay the bill, but was told by the waiter with a smile, "your bill has been paid."

When Lois was confused, Kent had walked to the front desk and asked, "what's up?"

Lois was confused. Kent had never left the table when they were having dinner. Then who paid the bill?

Shaking her head, Lois said, "the receptionist said that someone had paid the bill."

She put the bank card into her wallet and looked up, only to see Sally and a middle-aged couple coming out of the box.

The two eyes met. Suddenly, Lois realized that it was Sally who paid for her.

Sally put down her hand which was holding the middle-aged woman's arm and walked towards her, wriggling her waist.

She talked to Lois with a smile, "Miss Shen, you deserve to be a goddess. Even if you have broken up with Joey, there are still people around you who care about you."

Ignoring the mockery in her tone, Lois put her wallet into her handbag and said, "I would like to pay you back next time."

Ignoring the unwillingness on Lois's face, Sally looked up at Kent beside her.

His gentle smile and elegant temperament were no less attractive than Joey's.

Sally didn't show it on her face, but her heart was filled with jealousy. Why could Lois be so lucky to marry Joey? It was not easy for her to stir up the gap between them, and she hadn't appreciated her miserable situation enough. How could she get on another boat so soon!

Thinking of this, Sally smiled and said, "no, thanks. It's both Joey's money. No, Miss Shen is probably using this gentleman's money now... "

Before Sally could finish her words, she was interrupted by Kent. He said in a low and gentle voice, "Miss, you have to insult yourself, and then others will insult you. The old saying t

ells us that people will only be looked down upon by themselves as she look down upon herself."

Sally's face turned pale and then flushed.

All the guests around looked at them. Lois pursed his lips and lowered her head in silence. Kent held his briefcase gently but solemnly, while Sally glared at Lois with a red face.

After a short while, Sally's face turned better. She smiled and said, "yes, our ancestors told us to be polite, but Miss Shen and Joey haven't got married yet, but she dated with a man she is not familiar with..."

"Lois and I are schoolmates."

Sally held back her words again.

Even the mild Kent was angry. He was now resisting Sally, as if they were going to fight against each other.

Lois was both grateful and frustrated to Kent. Except for Tania, it was the first time that someone had stood by her side without flinching when she was divorcing Joey. But, It would be more difficult for her daughter to come back to her

"It's the first time that I've seen a thief. How can you be so aboveboard?" Sally looked at Lois with disdain. She was just a bitch hiding behind a man!

Lois was driven mad by her, but she grabbed Kent's arm. Even if she swallowed the fly today, she couldn't say anything more. If Sally really made things like last time, she didn't know how Joey would abuse the child.

Sally's mother walked to Sally arrogantly and looked at Lois who was trying hard to swallow insult and humiliation. The disgust in her eyes was mercilessly thrown to Kent and Lois. "Sally, don't contact with those bad people in the future. It will ruin your reputation."

Blue veins protruded on Lois's hand which was catching Kent, which showed how much strength she had used.

Seeing that Sally didn't say anything, her father didn't give her any chance to say anything more. He took her and her daughter and left in a hurry. The people in the restaurant were not children. They wouldn't think that the one who won was a good person. It was better to leave as soon as possible.

After the three of Sally them left, Lois loosened her grip on Kent's hand. She turned around and left the restaurant, followed by him.

Expressionlessly, Lois escorted Kent back to the hotel. She drove back to the company. She fixed the work like the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves, then she called Joey.

A slightly impatient voice sounded in her ears. which made Lois recall the days when she just married him. Although she was not happy, it did not seem to be so difficult. But now she was not as enthusiastic as before, and everything became so difficult for her

"Joey Gu..."

She called his name softly. She couldn't figure out what was wrong with her. At first, she thought this name was pleasant to hear.

At the age of twenty to twenty-five, she seemed to have changed from a sunny girl to a wooden old lady. She became weak and lifeless, experiencing all the process of living water turning into a pool of stagnant water.

Lois stood in front of the French window of the office with her phone in her hand. The sunshine was just right outside, but her heart was desolate.

"Go ahead."

On the other end of the phone came the voice of Joey, which seemed not as cold as usual. Lois smiled bitterly in her heart. Was it her illusion?

"Except letting me die. I promise you everything. " She had always compromised when she met with Joey. However, it was about Maggie, and she had no way back.

Unexpectedly, the man didn't get angry but kept silent.

Joey didn't say anything. He knew that Lois was ready to break up with him.
