All Chapters of Divorced Heiress Strikes Back : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

~Liam came out of his ward, frowning at first. Then he assessed the situation.While Haley knelt on the floor, her hair was locked in his mother's fingers. The woman let go of her instantly and she got to her feet, massaging her scalp. Was his mother bullying her again?Hadn't he sent her away because she wouldn't stop badmouthing his brother?Why did she come back?“Son- Son!” Vera scurried up to him, face pale and eyes wide. “Haley’s talking back again. Can you believe this barren woman who can't give me a grandchild had the guts to insult me?”So his mother would never change.Hadn't he warned her already?“Will, I'm afraid for your mother.” Leah let out a sigh. “Because of Haley, she's developing high blood pressure. You know someone like her can't tolerate insults.”“Uhm, before I forget.” Leah changed the topic. “Grandma asked me to apply this balm on you.”Liam's gaze strayed to the tiny bottle in her hand. It looked similar to the type of balm Haley would apply on his sti

…The Next Day.Liam rested on the hospital bed, blinking at the ceiling, one arm settled underneath his head. That crazy girl. Would she not visit him today?Didn't Joye deliver his message to her that she had to come in the morning? It was already afternoon. Haley hadn't shown up yet. Should he call the police to make her take responsibility?Why was he even bothered about Haley coming to visit him?Liam sat up, confusion swirling in his mind. Was he desperate?“Mr. Nash, you're awake.” The doctor walked in and checked out the IV Drip. “Good news. Your body's responding to treatment.”“When will I be discharged?” Liam asked. The doctor smiled, hanging yet another IV Drip on the stand and removing the finished one. He connected the drip to Liam's arm. “While we await the new x-ray results, I suggest you remain here and recuperate fully.”“An x-ray?”Hadn't they done it before Liam was even admitted to the bed and put on treatment? “Yeah. We need maximum assurance, Mr. Nash. I

…At DG Jewelry Corp.“Madam, Mr. Nash might fire me! Why did you cut the call?”Joye looked as if his favorite candy had been snatched from him. Haley could almost envision a bucketful of tears pouring from his eyes. “Tsk. Next time Liam calls you, don't answer the phone in my presence,” Haley replied, unapologetic. Why did Liam ask that she was leaving the city when she was sitting right here?Would that man ever leave her in peace?“Madam, you weren't like this before. Why're you giving Boss the cold shoulder?” Joye's voice was full of worry and grief.“Is it true that you've hit your head somewhere?” He added. “Because the boss has given me a new mission to look for the best mental health doctor.”Huh?Was that what they all thought?That she was crazy? Well, Liam was the craziest scumbag who couldn't understand that her eyes were now open.Was it hard to believe that she would no longer be the same foolish girl?Didn't it bother him that she kept letting him step on her?Joye'

Andrew's statement landed like a clap of thunder, deafening everywhere. All the employees' eyes popped out, blood draining from their faces. Leah's expression fell, her brows furrowing as she stared at Andrew as if he was a piece of puzzle.Haley facepalmed inside. Wasn't her brother overacting? Did he want to blow her cover?Stepping close to him, Haley nudged him secretly, giving him a silent signal. Andrew, who could read the silent message in her eyes, didn't appear pleased. But he obliged, to Haley's relief. Facing the employees, he faked a smile. “And… It's April first! Loosen up, Guys!”A wave of relieved sighs swept across the area. “Ah, you've got us right there, Mr. Woods.”“We've forgotten it's April Fool's Day.”“Hehe, you're full of humor.”“Right. Carry on with work!” Andrew shooed them back to their cubicles, gesturing with his hands.As the employees disappeared one after the other, Leah sauntered forward, her heel clicking. “Indeed, you're humorous, Mr. Woods

~He never held back. This time also, he didn't. Liam touched her everywhere, rendering her weak.One moment, he was kissing her lips, and the next moment, he kissed his way down her chin, her nape, and…Panic enveloped Haley's heart. Snapping awake, she struggled, her lungs stuffed with the fragrance that only belonged to him.Not here. Not now.“Get off me, you pervasive scumbag!” Haley exhaled deeply, but her lips were once again crushed by the man. Moments later, he pulled away, his piercing gaze drilling a hole through her. “Didn't you state the reason for divorce is ‘Disharmony in sex'?”No. Not that. Haley shut her eyes, her face flushing. “I'll show you I'm more than capable.” Liam went on, his fingers working their way up her shirt's button.Haley wrote it that way, not because she was so desperate. Yes, it was disappointing that he'd set that rule. But she only wrote it like that to hold up her pride and irritate him a bit. It turned out her statement had caused the
