Chapter 13 We Don’t Have Feelings for Each Other?
About Walter and Ashley? I frowned. I almost forgot that Ashley was pregnant. Given how much he
cared about her, I figured that he was about to talk to me about our divorce.
I couldn’t help but sigh deep down. I thought he was gonna wait until he healed, but he was so
reluctant to hurt Ashley and so eager to give her a name.
After a moment of silence, I nodded and said calmly, “I have no objections regarding our divorce. After
all, you and I don’t have feelings for each other. Yet we used to be a legally married couple, and I hope
that you can give me some time. You know that my dad is ill. If he knows now about our divorce, it
might be too much for him. So, Mr. Hinton, can the divorce be postponed for a few days? Also, the
things about our divorce involved two families, and you know better about the consequences than I do.”
I failed to detect his mood. The only thing I knew was that his face right now was a bit frighteningly
cold. Inexplicably, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped several degrees, making me shiver. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
He pressed his thin lips, and his dark eyes were obscure. After a while, he said in a low, magnetic
voice, “We don’t have feelings for each other?” He sneered and looked at me, “Tabatha, should I thank
you for your sensibility?”
I pressed my lips, not understanding why he was angry, and said, “If you are in such a hurry to be with
Ashley, I will immediately move out of Water Villa. I won’t stand in your way.”
“Get out!” He suddenly flared up, glaring at me without blinking, looking like a wild beast.
I was startled and in a daze. Hesitant, I stood up, looked at him, and finally said nothing. It seemed that
things didn’t go smoothly.
After getting out of the hospital, I felt a bit powerless. It seemed that I should find a chance to talk to my
parents as soon as possible so that they wouldn’t be shocked by the news.
Once our divorce became a fuss, it would embarrass both families.
I didn’t go to the hospital for the next few days. For one thing, Rudolf was hospitalized, and there was a
lot going on in the Conner Group. Though I wasn’t in charge, I was Rudolf’s daughter after all, so
people from the company always came to me no matter what.
Therefore, I was busy.
For another, I guessed that Walter probably didn’t want to see me either. After all, Ashley was staying
with me, and my appearance in the hospital seemed unnecessary.
On the weekend afternoon, after dealing with the company’s affairs, I prepared to go directly back to
Water Villa. After a busy week, I wanted to rest early.
To my surprise, I saw Roy outside the villa.
Seeing me, Roy looked at me cautiously. “Mrs. Hinton, Mr. Hinton is about to be discharged today. Do
you have time?”
I was stunned for a second and thought back to that day. I promised that I would move out of Water
Villa immediately to make room for Walter and Ashley. There had been so many things going on these
days, and I was so busy that I totally forgot about it.
It only came back to me after I was reminded by Roy. I figured that he was sent by Walter to remind
me. Otherwise, if I bumped into him and Ashley when they went back, things would be awkward.
Therefore, I looked at Roy and nodded. “I do. Please tell Mr. Hinton that I won’t stand in the way
between him and Ashley. I’ve packed up.”
Roy looked at me, confused. “What?”
I smiled. I wasn’t in a good mood, so I simply said bye to him without saying much and then went back
to the villa.
I didn’t have many belongings, most of which were clothes and jewelry. After packing up, I went to
Rachel’s apartment with my suitcase. Though I was the daughter of the Conner family, Rudolf and I
hadn’t been on good terms since what had happened five years ago, so I didn’t own any property.
Of course, I couldn’t go back to the Conner’s place, or Eileen would definitely ask me what had
happened. I could only go to Rachel.
Knowing that I was about to get a divorce from Walter, Rachel was shocked, and even her face was a
bit twisted. “What did you say? Ashley is pregnant, and Walter wants to divorce you? He even kicks
you out? Tabatha, you’re the unluckiest rich girl I’ve ever seen. For real!”
I was a bit irritated and said, “He didn’t kick me out. I have self-awareness. He doesn’t love me anyway.
Now that his beloved is back and pregnant, I should make way for her.”
Rachel stopped talking and just looked at me.
I felt weird under her gaze. I pursed my lips and said, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
