Countdown to My Divorce

Jim was surprised by Rachel’s claim. None of them could think of a solution to the problem. How could Rachel, just a lone young

woman, find a way around it?

But now that she was back, Jim knew he couldn’t just tell her to leave.

Rachel walked toward Cassandra.

“Mom, things aren’t what they seem to be. Tyler and I have a professional working relationship. At most, we are just ordinary friends.”

Cassandra crossed her arms in front of her chest. If it weren’t for Rachel’s hearing impairment, she wouldn’t even bother casting a glance her way.

She didn’t believe a word of Rachel’s claim. Instead, she pulled out divorce papers from her bag and slammed them on the table. “Sign it.”

Rachel wasn’t shocked by the divorce papers Cassandra produced. She knew from the start how much Cassandra didn’t like her -the latter despised her for her hearing disability and saw her as unworthy of being part of the Lewis family.

What’s more, the fact that Rachel wasn’t blood–related to the Lloyd family amplified Cassandra’s dislike of her.

However, Rachel would never sign the papers. If she did, William wouldn’t feel the impact of the ‘surprise‘ she had in store for him.
