Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 763 - 743 Divorce Agreement (2)

Jiayi’s body stiffened, and suddenly she rose to her feet, walked over, pulled open the small window on the iron door, and stared intently at the policewoman.

The policewoman’s voice halted abruptly, and in a moment, she was stricken with a shiver under Jiayi’s gaze.

On the pallid face of the petite woman, a pair of pitch-black eyes shone like cold stars, as if jewels embedded in the desolate, deep sky, making people feel utterly uncomfortable.

"He won’t neglect me, you shut your mouth."

Her lips stubbornly parted and closed, a flush of excitement appeared on her cheeks.

Her hair stood on end as if she were a little leopardess, baring her fangs and claws, ready to fight at any moment.

All the confidence she had in her life seemed to culminate in this instant.

She firmly believed that he would never abandon her.

He must be out there, working hard to overturn her case.

The policewoman hadn’t expected that Jiayi had overheard everything, and was slightly shaken by her rebuke.

After so many days of silence in the cell, the young mistress of the Huo Family, who seemed like a meek bride, was actually capable of resistance.

In front of her, after all, stood the mayor’s wife, with whom it was not good to completely fall out.

The policewoman, after all, dared not retort back with a scolding, and with a snort, turned around and continued her patrol along the corridor.

Listening to the fading footsteps of the policewoman, the tension on Jiayi’s face, which had been like that of a warrior, instantly relaxed.

Her stomach still didn’t feel great, waves of nausea surged up.

Remembering Fang Yao’s advice, if she still felt unwell, to inform the officers at the detention center, and they would take her to the hospital inside the facility.

After a moment’s hesitation, she finally gave up.

She did not want the detention center officers to add accusations that she was using her husband’s status, or mock her behind her back for being delicate, treating the detention center like a stay in a five-star hotel, too pretentious.

Now, even being sick was her fault.

She returned to the hard bed, sat down, leaned weakly against the concrete wall with her arms wrapped around her knees, and rested her head on her forearms, nestled between her legs.

The curvature of her body provided some relief from the discomfort of her internal organs.

"How many more days until you come..."

"You’re under more pressure than me now, aren’t you..."

"I’ll be good, I won’t let you come again..."

A faint voice in her heart kept talking to her.

That was how she managed to feel a lot better.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when she felt the cool dampness on her wrist and laughed at herself mockingly, swallowing back her tears.

In the following two days, Xia Tingxuan didn’t come during visiting hours.

Jiayi assumed that Zaizai and Mummy were too busy with her case to have time, and she didn’t think much of it.

Until the third day when the visiting hour arrived.

Scattered footsteps came from outside the cell.

Accompanied by the voice of an officer leading someone in, the lock on the iron door clanged open.

Jiayi thought it was Mummy who had come and mustered her energy, walking to the door.

It wasn’t Xia Tingxuan and Fang Yao. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The two officers at the door had cold expressions, and between them stood a man dressed in a suit and leather shoes.

The man looked like a professional, holding a blue and white folder in his hand.

It was the sort of folder commonly seen in offices, nothing special, but its appearance here made Jiayi’s heart skip a beat, inexplicably jumpy.

She curled her palm slightly and looked towards the two officers, "Officers, is there something wrong?"

The policewoman glanced at the man in the suit behind her.

The man stepped forward, his face expressionless as he handed over the file, his tone devoid of any emotion:

"Mrs. Huo, hello, I am a lawyer from the Huo Group’s legal team, my surname is Yang. I am here today representing Mr. Huo. This document, please sign it," said the attorney.

Jiayi saw a hint of sympathy and pity on the faces of the two police officers accompanying Lawyer Yang. She was momentarily disoriented but composed herself shortly afterward, "... What document am I signing?"

Lawyer Yang raised his hand and pointed to the document, indicating that she could take a look for herself.

Her throat moved as she opened the folder; it was an A4-sized agreement.

The first page, with black letters on white paper, stood out distinctly in her vision.

Divorce Agreement.

Her fingertips reflexively flicked the page slightly, and her eyes instantly became vacant. She either hadn’t processed the information yet or couldn’t bring herself to believe it. She looked up, "What does this mean?"

The two police officers exchanged glances, shaking their heads, thinking that Mrs. Huo must have been shocked—the words ’Divorce Agreement’ were so prominent that even a primary school student could understand them!

Lawyer Yang took a deep breath, "It means exactly what it says."

She finally seemed to grasp the meaning, gripping the corner of the agreement.

Her fingertips crinkled the paper slightly before she let go.

After a long silence, she moved her lips slightly, "He wants to divorce me."

Her statement sounded like a question to the lawyer and a murmur to herself.

The woman in front of him showed no excitement, no signs of sadness, and she did not cry or demand the reasons behind it.

Yet, it was this calm demeanor that softened the heart of Lawyer Yang, who had fought in many lawsuits and was experienced, but still, he mustered his professional spirit and nodded, "I hope Madam can understand your current situation and circumstances; it is for the best for both you and the Boss. Please sign the agreement immediately."

Having said this, he took out a pen from his suit jacket pocket and handed it over.

This was not a negotiation, but a demand.

The lawyer’s words were clearly direct orders from that man.

He wanted her to understand her current situation?

How cold these words were, yet they were so consistent with his usual way of doing things.

Yes, for her own good and his, she should sign this agreement.

That way, neither his image nor the Huo Family’s would continue to suffer because of her, a murder suspect.

And the constant rumors accusing him of protecting his wife would subside.

Her lips twitched slightly, her movements somewhat stiff as she took the pen.

An inappropriate thought surfaced in her mind about the day in the study...

That day, the question she wanted to ask him but was too shy to ask now had a clear answer in reality.

In the past few days, his absence with no trace and his failure to appear had made her self-comfort in the detention center a self-deception in front of this divorce agreement.

Her lashes fluttered, concealing the true emotions in her eyes.

Without giving the substantial content of the agreement another glance, she maintained a calm expression and turned directly to the last page, gripping the pen tightly.

The pen tip slid down, touching the blank space for the signature on the agreement.

"Madam, wouldn’t you like to read the content first?" Lawyer Yang cleared his throat, reminding her.

She pulled back some of her thoughts from distraction, raised her head, and tried to keep her voice calm, "Who gets Zaizai?"

She only needed to know this.

The rest was unimportant.

"The young master is still little and not suitable to live without the care of his birth mother. He will live with you, the Boss will provide alimony, and someone will be sent regularly to visit the young master," explained the lawyer.

That did surprise her a little.

But it wasn’t strange.

It must be out of guilt that he made such a concession, right?

Otherwise, how could he let go of Zaizai’s custody? To allow his offspring to be seen outside?

Zaizai is the lifeblood of the Huo Family.
