She Became Rich After Divorce by Georgina Lane

Chapter 71: Nobody Likes to Suffer

Cheyenne handed Iker a cup of warm water and his medicine.

“Okay, take your medicine quickly. Once you’re done, I need to go back!” The black capsule pill looked extremely bitter and had an even more unpleasant smell.

Iker wrinkled his brow at the scent and resisted, “How about you go back first? I’ll take it later.” “Are you sure?”

“Of course! I’m not a child. Do you think I’m afraid of taking medicine?” As they say, those who are guilty often speak the loudest. His behavior was no different from someone caught red-handed!

He looked up and saw Cheyenne’s smile freeze on her face. A sense of unease began to rise within him. Though she was smiling, there was an underlying sadness in her eyes that she couldn’t hide. “You’re right,” she said softly. “I was with him for three years, but he couldn’t stand me for even one day.”

Damn it!
