After that, he picked up Riley Young and left the venue.
The scene was silent.
Try to put on a decent smile,
"Everyone can eat now."
When I got home, the left side of my face was still slightly hot.
After putting the child to sleep, I lay on the sofa with my cheeks wet.
I felt like there were dozens of lemons beating in my heart.
Sour. Swelling.
Even breathing became difficult.
It was not until late at night that the sound of the door being pushed open was heard.
Gavin Rivers reached out to touch my face, but I dodged him.
"I was wrong, Audrey Xu." He knelt on the ground and gently rubbed his face against my knees.
"But after all, you were the one who hit someone first."
"Ningning was drunk and talking nonsense. How can you argue with a drunk person?"
He smiled at me, straightened up and rubbed my nose, "Will you forgive me?"
In the moonlight, I saw the lipstick mark on the back of Gavin Rivers' collar.
I picked up the agreement on the table and handed it to him, my tone was filled with fatigue.
"Gavin Rivers, let's get a divorce."
"divorce?"
Gavin Rivers' expression was frozen as he took the agreement and read it over and over again.
After confirming that I was serious about filing for divorce, the agreement was thrown in my face by Gavin Rivers.
“Are you crazy Audrey Xu?”
"Luna just turned one year old, and you want to divorce me?"
"Do you think divorce can be accomplished with just a few words?"
"I know I was wrong today. I hit you, but everything has a cause and an effect."
"I've already apologized. When will your princess temper subside?"
"Get it straight. You're a mother now."
"Family harmony comes first!"
He said a lot and didn't notice the tears falling from my eyes.
There was a stinging pain on my face, and the wounds left by the staples on my face were burned by my tears.
Gavin Rivers subconsciously took out his wallet, his movements frozen as if paused.
"Your band-aid went to Riley Young, right?"
"I even ordered a bowl of porridge for her."
Facing my questioning, he was calm.
"So what? It doesn't mean anything."
"Divorce over a bowl of porridge and a band-aid."
“Audrey Xu, you’re making a fuss!”
Gavin Rivers spoke so loudly that he woke up his sleeping child.
The crying echoed throughout the living room.
Looking at his frowning brows, I asked,
"Do you know where Luna's bottles and formula are?"
The sudden question made Gavin Rivers freeze in his tracks.
There was a hint of sarcasm on his lips. How could he know where the milk powder was?
After having children, Gavin Rivers always believed that taking care of children was my job.
It has nothing to do with him as a father.
Holding the bottle, I signed my name on the agreement before entering the bedroom.
"You should sign it too, or I will file for divorce on the grounds that you cheated on me."
"You won't get any benefit then."
Gavin Rivers was still trying to defend himself, but I reached out and touched his face, which I had loved so much.
"Your mouth tastes like the red wine that Riley Young drank today."
"What did you do with her? It's hard to guess."
I coaxed Luna to sleep again, and when I came out, Gavin Rivers was no longer in the living room.
He tore the agreement into pieces and threw it into the trash can.
Even the pen was broken in half.
A luxury brand bag was quietly placed on the table.
That's what Gavin Rivers hid behind him as soon as he walked in.
When I opened it, a limited edition brand-name baby blanket appeared in front of me.
My eyes darkened.
