Chapter 176

In the hospital.

Ben felt his heart skip a beat and had a bad feeling.

He covered his chest with a blank expression on his face. How long had it been since he last felt this way?

“Ben, the three–day deadline is up,” Leo said from the side. “Have you decided whether you want to get a divorce or give her the shares?”

Ben suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and took out a divorce agreement expressionlessly.

Susan had already signed her name on the divorce agreement.

Although Ben hadn’t signed his name on it yet, no one thought that Ben wouldn’t.

Leo took a look and felt a little regretful that he couldn’t get any more benefits out of it, but he still said reluctantly. “Okay. You should settle the divorce as soon as possible.”

“Ben,” Isabella, who was next to him, asked tentatively, “Will I be attending your wedding soon?”

Ben glanced at her and said indifferently. “Who knows?”

He didn’t deny it directly.

Isabella was excited immediately.

“Ben! Is it Monica? You’re getting married again?” Leo asked Ben curiously.

“Who knows?” Ben replied again calmly.

Leo understood immediately. He replied with a smile, “It’s basically settled then. As your younger brother, seeing that my business has yet to pick up, I can’t afford to give you a gift. I’ll just give you a few words of congratulations

for now.”

“Why are you congratulating him? It is not confirmed yet.” Isabella’s voice became sharp suddenly.

Leo looked at her in confusion. “So what if it’s not confirmed yet? Why are you so agitated?”

Realizing that she had lost her composure, Isabella coughed a few times and said, “I’m sorry, I… I’m just too shocked.‘

“What’s there to be shocked about?” Leo looked at her strangely.

Isabella smiled perfunctorily and said nothing.

Just then, a joyful voice rang out.

“Ben, I’m here.” Monica was dressed brightly and came happily.

over to

She walked over to Ben and held his hand.

Ben resisted the urge to push her away and didn’t move.

Isabella’s face fell immediately.

“Ben, why did you call Ms. Lynn over?” Leo asked curiously.

Monica said coquettishly, “I heard that Mrs. Landor was hospitalized, so I came to visit her myself. After all, she is Ben’s mother and my elder too.”

Isabella couldn’t help asking, “Is it the proper way to dress like this to see a patient?”

Monica’s outfit was suitable for attending a gathering of socialites, but it was obviously a little out of place if she was coming to visit someone at the hospital.

Monica said matter–of–factly, “I’m dressed well, and Mrs. Landor would be happy to see me. Maybe she’ll recover from her illness then.”

“Mom is in a vegetable now. She can’t see you!” Isabella couldn’t stand it anymore and said.

“Oh, how did she become a vegetable?” Monica was shocked. “It’s so sad. If I become a vegetable, I’d rather die.”

“What do you mean?” Leo got angry immediately.
