What Separates Me and You

Chapter 182 You’ll Regret It

Lewis said indifferently, “Why should I be concerned for her well-being?”

Conrad wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He secretly roasted Lewis for constantly trying to save face. Nevertheless, he kept up the act. “That’s not very nice, though; it’s a human life we’re talking about.”

Lewis cast Conrad a glance, and the latter sheepishly shut up.

Lewis looked toward Josephine again. “What are you waiting for? Sign it, and we’ll get the divorce certificate this afternoon.”

Untimely, Conrad chipped in, “Sir, it’s Saturday today.”

Lewis’ face darkened.

Conrad cleared his throat. “I’ll be taking my leave, sir. Please call if you need me.”

Lewis didn’t say anything. Conrad turned on his heels and fled the scene.

Now, only Josephine and Lewis were left. Josephine stared at her incomplete signature and couldn’t bring herself to continue.

Unfazed, Lewis sat beside her, eyeing her coldly without saying anything.

Josephine was torn.

She had already stopped flattering herself. Indeed, Lewis had no reason to pay for Mrs. Jinkins’ hospital bills after their divorce. He wasn’t using Mrs. Jinkins to threaten her, and he definitely wasn’t reluctant to part with her.

If she signed the agreement, Mrs. Jinkins would have less than half a month to live.

Lewis finished two cigarettes. His throat felt raspy after that, so he covered his mouth with his fist and coughed several times.

However, Josephine mistook that as him urging her on. Squeezing the pen, her fingertips turned white.

Shortly after, Lewis asked impatiently, “Are you signing or not?”

Josephine put down her pen and gestured, “Don’t you try to trick me just because I’m not well- versed with the law. We’re husband and wife, so even if we get the divorce, you’ll have to give me half of your property.”

Lewis lifted a brow and said, “I’ll do that, then the remaining debt of 200 billion dollars is on you.”

Josephine opened her mouth but was suddenly at a loss for words.
