You Had This Divorce Coming Chapter 112
On the way to the hospital, Gideon replayed Otto's words in his mind.He called Otto twice. Both times, an automated message informed him the number was unavailable.Otto was strict about his sleep. Every night without fail, he turned off his phone. Gideon had always known that.His own wife was in the hospital, and he could still sleep soundly? Then again, perhaps Otto wasn't much better a husband than Gideon himself.He dismissed the thought. But the moment he found himself comparing Lucille and Rayne, their tactics, their methods, the way each of them fought, any sense of satisfaction vanished. He might truly need to take a different approach with Lucille.Unfortunately, she had already left the company and moved out of Blossom Court. She refused to let him see their daughter. When he had tried to keep her by his side, she had burned the house down. Every part of her life was beyond his reach now.What leverage did he have left?…By the time Gideon arrived at the hospital,

Nonetheless, everyone had their blind spots, and Gideon's was his inability to see what he had done, even after Otto had spelled it out in plain terms.It made Walter question whether Gideon's judgment in business was really as sound as he had always believed.Was Gideon truly failing to understand? Or was he choosing not to?Otto had entrusted his loved ones to him out of trust. But staying by her side around the clock throughout her entire recovery had clearly crossed the line. Yet Gideon continued to defend himself."You both watched the livestream today. Yes, my mother and the others were wrong to go after Lucille. I'll admit that. But Lucille planned the whole thing. She let herself take the hits, had the entire incident livestreamed, and then ordered her people to slap them back twice as hard. Now my mother, Rayne, and my aunt are all lying in hospital beds."Even after all that, I still didn't blame her. I kept my temper, went to see her, and tried to leave the door open fo

Otto remained completely calm. His eyes narrowed slightly, giving nothing away. "So? You neglect your own wife to take care of mine?"Gideon, Walter, and Howard said nothing.Otto withdrew his gaze, walked over, and took the seat beside Walter.Gideon wanted to argue, but he couldn't find an angle to attack. He sat down as well, the hostility still evident on his face.He thought back to why he had called them here in the first place. He had wanted to find out what was going on between Walter and Lucille. He had never expected Otto to show up.And from the sound of it, Otto was clearly on Lucille's side. He showed no particular concern for Rayne.That made no sense. Otto and Lucille had barely interacted. At most, they had exchanged a few brief words for work.As the oldest of the group, Gideon felt an instinctive surge of irritated protectiveness. His expression darkened even further. "Rayne's face is badly hurt. You haven't gone to check on her?"Otto rubbed his brow. "She co

Elaine was nearly in tears with rage. "Did you go looking for that woman, Lucille, again? I heard from someone at the auction house that you bought a rare pink diamond. You're not planning to give it to her little bastard, are you?"She's already left your mother barely clinging to life, and you're still going to give that woman's child something so precious? If you do, I'm cutting ties with you!"Every word Elaine spoke blazed with fury. Her hatred for Lucille had reached its limit.Gideon was furious as well. Every nerve in his body was still on edge.He had spent that obscene amount on the pink diamond because he wanted Lucille to see the gesture, forgive him, and come home with their daughter. Instead, he had given away a priceless stone and walked away with nothing. He had lost a fortune and gained absolutely nothing.The more he thought about it, the worse it became. Lucille had once treated money as though it were beneath her notice. When had she become so mercenary?Gideo

"So I missed your childbirth and your recovery month. Plenty of men do. How many women make as much of it as you do?""Lucille, life moves forward. What I failed to do back then, I can make up for now. Do you have to keep bringing it up every single time?"Gideon spoke with the unwavering confidence of a man who believed he was being perfectly reasonable. His eyes even flashed with irritation, as if he were the one who had truly been wronged.Lucille's blood boiled. "Gideon, have you never heard the saying? Sometimes, a woman needs a man the way a paratrooper needs a parachute. If he wasn't there at that one critical moment, there's no point in him showing up afterward."Lucille trembled with rage as waves of cold washed over her body. She felt feverish. Something was wrong.Gideon stood there for a few seconds before stepping forward and pulling her into his arms. "I know I was wrong. The next time you give birth and spend your recovery month, I'll be there every hour of every da

Lucille couldn't make sense of it.In a situation like this, most people would do everything they could to distance themselves from any involvement. Walter had done the opposite. He had inserted himself right into the middle of it, looking for all the world as though he were daring Gideon to come after him.Gideon ended the call. His face was cold.He looked at Lucille. His eyes were sharp with contempt, the eyes of a man convinced he had finally caught her.When he spoke, his voice was low. "Lucille, Walter just admitted it himself. Is there anything you want to say? So that's why you were in such a hurry to divorce me. You already had someone else lined up. Isn't that right?"It felt as though icy arrows were being driven into Gideon's chest, one after another. He could barely stay on his feet."Sign it or don't," Lucille said.At that moment, Gideon felt every trace of warmth and sweetness from their five years together dissolve into nothing. "I won't sign it. Lucille, I won'

"What's she doing here?" Gideon muttered.Mark frowned. "This complex is full of design firms and studios. That's not good.""Why not?" Gideon asked."She only handed in her resignation a few days ago. If she's here now, she's probably looking for a new job. Or planning to start her own studio,"

Lucille stepped out of the café into a light, steady rain. The place sat tucked inside a side alley, away from the main road. Her car was parked at the far end of the lane, far enough that reaching it required a proper walk.She hadn't brought an umbrella. For a moment, she lingered beneath the awn

Lucille's expression darkened. She let out a short, cold laugh. "Then what exactly did you want from me today? I don't understand."Otto's expression shifted, something complicated moving behind the warmth in his eyes. "I've never liked overthinking people's motives. But I also refuse to be the las

Lucille looked straight at Otto. "He told me you asked him to. I want to know if that's true."A flicker of surprise crossed Otto's face, but he quickly regained his composure.He took a moment before responding. "Gideon and I are close friends. And considering how they grew up, he's practically R
