The 78 Calls: When Love Fails Novel – “Ms. Nolan, the divorce agreement that you entrusted me to draft has been prepared and sent over.
You should have already received it, right?” Adeline Nolan took the documents sent by the lawyer from the local courier and nodded gently, “Mr. Reilly, thank you.” When the phone hung up, the deliveryman had already gone far away. Adeline turned around and walked into the room.
Soon after, the sound of the door opening came from behind her. The man’s deep and magnetic voice approached from afar and finally came behind her. “Adele, I’m sorry.
I’ve been too busy with my business trip these past few days and haven’t had a chance to check my phone, so I couldn’t contact you.” As he finished speaking, Brent Wilson turned towards Adeline, his profile leaning towards her abdomen, with a smile in his eyes.
“Has the baby been giving you a hard time these past few days?” “Brent.” Adeline suddenly spoke, which momentarily stunned Brent. He was ten years older than Adeline. She used to call him “uncle” playfully, but only when he took too long during intimate moments, she would cry and call him by his full name.
Before he had a chance to think much, she had already opened the divorce agreement in her hand to the last page, covering the contents on the paper, and handed it to Brent. “You said before that you would give me a gift once the baby is born.
I have already decided what I want, so just sign on this.” Her voice was calm and steady, and he took the documents without hesitation. He picked up a pen and quickly signed his name at the bottom. Adeline didn’t expect his actions to be so fast, he didn’t even glance at the contents of the document, looking slightly stunned. “You don’t even look at the contents of the document, aren’t you afraid that the document I gave you will ruin you financially?” Brent simply smiled indulgently and pinched her cheek.
“What’s mine is yours, and when we have a baby, it will belong to both of us.” As soon as he finished speaking, Adeline laughed. Unfortunately, this time, what she wanted was freedom. Before she could say anything, a ring sound interrupted her. It was Brent’s phone.
