Mr. Mysterious's Spontaneous Bride

Chapter 179 Extreme Method

Roland felt her anger was inexplicable, "Shawn hasn't done anything wrong, right? It's just that he used the wrong approach..." He shouldn't have said this. The moment he uttered those words, he immediately touched a nerve with Amy. "You understand nothing!" Amy scolded, "I've encountered too many cases like this. Nasty men say and do everything in the name of love, but the premise of love is built on making the other person happy. Look at Dr. Jones, is she happy?" Roland hung his head guiltily. "In the end, this self-righteous, domineering CEO style is just to please himself, to move himself. The woman gains nothing, and yet, because of this foolish behavior, she's forced into internal conflict, wasting time." Roland silently swallowed the tea in his mouth, feeling that something was not quite right. Although Shawn was his rival in love, was he really deserving of such criticism? "Indeed, his personality has some issues, but he's always been the big boss of DT Investments for so many years, just out of habit..." "Look, look, making excuses again. Is that all you men know how to do?" Roland: "..." He shouldn't have said that. Amy continued to scold for a while, rolling her eyes at Roland countless times. "Ivy, I'll help you with this divorce case, for free." The familiar lawyer changed her address to Ivy with just a few words. She shook hands with Ivy and said, "Think about what you want, and I'll help you get it. You didn't have a prenuptial agreement before the marriage, but this time, I can definitely help you get something from him!" Amy was confident that with Shawn's financial power, Ivy could definitely become a super-rich woman through this divorce. "I don't want anything." Ivy, however, remained calm, puzzling everyone. "You... Are you stupid?” Not wanting anything and hiring a divorce lawyer for what? That dog of a man would definitely sign the divorce agreement in seconds if he knew she didn't want anything. Amy didn't understand and looked at Roland.Seeing through Amy's thoughts, Roland shook his head. He looked at Amy sympathetically and said, "You'll understand later. Also, good luck!" "Amy, I don't want anything. My only request is that what it was like before marriage is the same after divorce. As for his money, I don't want it. Taking it will only keep us entangled, and I don't want that. So, please make sure to settle this divorce for me while I'm in England. About your fee, just charge me according to your rates." "Okay. I'll do my best." Amy's response sounded somewhat disappointed. She thought this divorce case wouldn't take much effort. Men, as long as their money isn't taken away, divorce is just a matter of minutes. She had fought divorce cases for so many years, witnessing many couples turning against each other over property distribution issues. This is human nature and also reality. This is why Amy, despite being single for forty years, didn't want to get married. That feeling was too scary. A once-loving couple turning against each other could make the previous vows and promises a joke. But Amy miscalculated. Just as she was ready with all the documents to find Shawn's team, she didn't even see the lackey around Shawn. Because, in the less than an hour it took to submit the divorce documents, all her major clients called, shouting that they would rather pay a breach of contract fee than continue to cooperate with her. At that moment, Amy had just finished a meeting. Hearing that dozens of her major clients were canceling contracts simultaneously, she, who had witnessed countless grand scenes, was still deeply shocked. "People from DT Investments say that if you give up being Ivy's lawyer, these clients will continue to renew contracts. But if you insist, they will make our law firm shut down." After hearing the colleague's report, Amy sat down heavily on the sofa, sweat dripping from her forehead. It wasn't until now that she finally understood why Ivy said so confidently that this divorce journey would last a long time and why Roland and she said to brace for the worst. It turns out that for some men, not getting divorced is really just because they don't want to let go.Stubborn, nasty men! Amy was caught in hesitation. Meanwhile, at the hospital, Shawn had already vented his anger. Sanders, accompanied by a bodyguard and an employee reporting work, stood outside the ward. Jasson and Luke, were inside, looking dejected. From the observation window, it was evident that both of them had been scolded harshly, independently and equally drenched in verbal abuse. Starting from the night when his wife found Amy, they had been aware of the situation. However, considering the boss's health, Luke and Jasson, had kept the information suppressed. They focused on preliminary work, such as suppressing Amy's law firm. The entire company kept it a secret for several days, and only when they saw the boss's health improving did they dare to report the current situation. At that moment, Shawn was half-leaning on the bed, smashing everything within reach. If it weren't for Jasson’s quick reflexes, he might have smashed even his own breathing. "Where is she?" The man asked in a subdued voice, making an effort to restrain his anger. "At the Livingston residence," Luke said, "Our people have been monitoring there for several days. She hasn't left the house, and our surveillance shows no sign of her." Shawn's eyes darkened, a tearing pain emanating from his heart. Seeing his heartbeat rhythm getting faster, Jasson thought it was bad and hurriedly added, "Don't worry too much. She hasn't left the house these days. Our people have been following the Livingston family's nanny when she goes out for groceries. Based on the analysis of her daily diet, it seems that Dr. Jones' mood should be quite good. Don't rush to see her. Let her digest your identity and the impact it brings. After all, in this matter, you are the one with the biggest problem." Jasson's voice became smaller and smaller, afraid that Shawn, in a bad mood, might tear him apart. God knows how much effort Shawn had put in to force himself not to get out of bed and find Ivy. "I'm doing this just because I don't want her to leave me. Is that wrong?" "No, no," Jasson hurriedly comforted. At this moment, he looked like a lion walking on the verge of collapse, "Your goal and starting point are not wrong, just the method is a bit extreme." The man closed his eyes, calming his emotions. "Did you find out when she booked a flight to England?""I haven't seen her purchase a plane ticket yet, but rest assured, if she leaves the Livingston family, we will inform you immediately. Your current priority is to recover your health and go see her with full spirits." Finally calming Shawn down, they called in a doctor and nurse to clean the man's ward. The two exchanged a glance, considering the situation settled. "Go and call Amy. I want to see her before leaving." As Jasson was about to leave the ward, he heard Shawn's voice. Neither sad nor happy, neither angry nor scolding, a calm undertow surged within. "Okay." ***
