Fall for You After Divorce by Callie

Chapter 17

Briana frowned and looked at him with an agitated expression. “Maxim, can you stop pestering me? It was my fault to marry you without your consent, but I’ve helped you heal your legs. These three years I’ve been loyal to you. Now I want to live my own life. Isn’t that too much?”

Maxim’s pupils shrank. It took several seconds before he gritted his teeth and said, “I’ve said it several times. I won’t divorce you!

“I have checked it out. You were not with Hector those few days. I know where you went and how you got the 8 million dollars. If you don’t want me to continue the investigation, go back to the villa with me right now.”

Briana’s hands tightened. She struggled and shook off his hand. She got into the car on her own.

On the way back, neither of them said anything.

Briana was quite agitated. She didn’t understand what Maxim was up to.

Wasn’t he supposed to rush to get the divorce certificate?

Neither of them was happy without the divorce.

Back at the villa, Briana went straight upstairs. As soon as she reached the stairs, Maxim’s voice sounded from behind.

“The day after tomorrow is your grandfather’s birthday. I bought a pair of antique vases a while ago. How about taking those pair of vases as his birthday gift?”

Briana tilted her head and looked at him indifferently, “You can do whatever you want. Don’t ask me about this kind of thing.”

Maxim frowned. “He is your grandfather. You…”

“So what?”

A trace of sarcasm appeared in Briana’s eyes. “We’re blood-related. That’s all.”

No one in the Schneider family ever regarded her as a family member. Nor did she have the hobby of pleasing them.

“Anyway, let’s go together to his birthday party.”

“Got it.”
