Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 552 Delivering Food

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Lainey stared at Jaydan in shock, unable to believe what he had just said.

"I said, we've been almost through the formalities for going abroad. You get ready, and I'll send you to Boletia for study in a few days,” Jaydan said in an unquestionable tone with a cold face.

Lainey trembled slightly, tears welling up in her eyes in an instant. Her voice was choked with sobs, but it sounded unusually firm. 'No, I'm not going."

"You have to." Jaydan got up angrily and slammed the table, making heavy noises.

However, Lainey raised her arm to wipe away the tears with her sleeve. "You have no right to limit my freedom even if you're my father. I'm not going abroad. You'd better drop the idea."

She then turned around and quickly left the study without giving him a chance to retort.

But she showed her vulnerability as soon as she returned to the bedroom alone.

Biting her finger, she paced back and forth in the room at a loss, muttering, "What should I do? What should I do..."

Just as she was burning with anxiety, her cell phone suddenly rang.

Shocked, she picked up the phone after calming herself down. "Roman, are you home?’ she said in a low voice.

Roman was standing on the balcony where Lainey liked to stay the most.

He looked into the distance with a faint smile. "Yes."

She pursed her lips and could not help but tell him what worried her.

Roman fell silent after hearing it.

There was dead silence but for their gentle breathing over the phone.

Lainey couldn't stop her heart from pounding due to uneasiness.
