Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier)

Chapter 188

"At least wait until the house is sold before getting divorced!" "Say something! You can't just keep ignoring my messages!"

Lily did want to reply, but even if she did, Hazel would just have endless things to say, trying to convince her not to divorce,

After thinking it over, she replied, "We've already gone to the courthouse to file for divorce. After the one-month cooling-off period, we'll go straight to get the divorce certificate."

It had been two hours since Hazel sent her the last message. When Hazel received the message, she jumped in shock, opened it, and walked over to Bobby, holding onto a shred of hope.

"Honey, there's still a month of cooling-off period. Maybe by now, Lily is pregnant with Xavier's child. The pregnancy will definitely show within a month, so the divorce won't happen..."

Bobby didn't believe it at all and shoved her aside. "What if she's not pregnant? They'll just go get the divorce certificate in a month. You need to find where she is. You must figure out how much money she's gotten from Xavier..." If a child couldn't keep the marriage together, they would have to get more money!

"I...I can't get anything out of her. Honey- Ah!" She started to suggest they sell the house first to avoid delays for Hayden's expenses, but Bobby slapped her before she could finish her sentence.

A clear handprint appeared on her face.
