Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau
Chapter 821 - 415: Fate and Blessings (First Update)Chapter 821: Chapter 415: Fate and Blessings (First Update)
Lawrence Winters was even more confused.
She stood at the entrance of the living room, helplessly clutching the strap of her Coach satchel, looking lonely, like a lost child, unable to find her way forward.
When Gabrielle Winters heard from the old Daoist that Lawrence went out early in the morning to get a divorce, she was half-scared to death and also very angry.
She hurried to call her, only to find that the child had turned off her phone, clearly set on breaking up.
She had no choice but to wait for Lawrence to return, intending to give her a piece of her mind.
But when she saw her daughter of twenty-one years standing in front of her looking terrified, recalling the hardships she endured when she was young and the pain of her birth, Gabrielle couldn’t help but soften.
She stared at her for a while, then sighed and said, "What are you doing with all this? Marrying as if it were child’s play, and divorcing as if acting in a play. Are you trying to drive me to my grave?"
When Lawrence heard this tone, she figured Gabrielle wouldn’t blame her anymore.
Her taut nerves suddenly relaxed, like a string pulled almost to the breaking point, suddenly released by a shot arrow.
All the pressure cleared away, and she sprang back to life like a spring.
"Mom... I had no choice," she said sheepishly, approaching Gabrielle, standing in front of her like a guilty schoolchild, hands hanging in front, holding her bag, head down, looking just like when she used to confess to mistakes as a child.
"No choice? I thought there was nothing in the world you couldn’t handle," Gabrielle mocked her lightly.
Seeing this, Nick Zeller felt pained and hurriedly said, "Oh dear! Isn’t this just right! I always said you got married too hurriedly! It must be that brat Kenneth Osborne treating Lawrence badly! Otherwise, how could someone with such a good temper not get along with him?! Lawrence, don’t worry, Dad’s got your back!"
Lawrence was originally afraid her family wouldn’t agree with her decision, but with Nick’s unconditional support, she felt embarrassed.
Softly murmured, "Dad... actually, I was at fault too. Kenneth and I, neither of us were willing to compromise, so... I think it’s better to get a divorce..."
Nick opened his mouth but nearly didn’t know how to continue defending her.
Gabrielle shook her head and beckoned her over, "Alright, come here."
Lawrence hurriedly put down her bag and nestled into Gabrielle’s embrace.
Gabrielle cradled her shoulders, stroking her hair tenderly, "Oh, child, why didn’t you talk to the family if something was on your mind? Holding it in by yourself, what if you make yourself ill?"
Lawrence blinked and said, "I did."
"Who did you talk to?"
"Grandmaster."
Gabrielle: "..."
Nick immediately said, "What good is it discussing these things with my master! He’s neither dated nor married! You’d have better results casting divination with the Five Emperors Coins than asking him!"
Lawrence murmured, "...I did cast divination too..."
Nick: "!!!"
Should he sew his mouth shut?
Clearly, he hadn’t comforted Lawrence, and he’d offended the old Daoist.
Because the old Daoist’s malevolent gaze clearly swept over him.
Gabrielle didn’t understand those The Book of Changes Eight Diagrams, but her grasp on relationships was likely more reliable than the other three in the living room.
Seeing Lawrence’s bewildered look, she chuckled and said, "Actually, you guys did rush into marriage, but I thought you’d already crossed the ’childhood sweethearts’ hurdle. Didn’t expect you hadn’t."
"What does crossing the childhood sweethearts hurdle mean?" Lawrence was even more perplexed, "Kenneth and I were childhood sweethearts, that’s why we fell in love and got married. That’s the cause, not the result, right?"
"Then tell me, why get a divorce?" When Gabrielle needed to be sharp, she was quite sharp.
Lawrence rolled her eyes and said, "Because we realized that after getting married, we didn’t get along as well as before. Mom, you also said Kenneth and I were childhood sweethearts, we’ve known each other for over ten years, shouldn’t he understand my thoughts? But after marriage, he intentionally disgusted me, even concealed and deceived me. Can these days continue?"
Gabrielle snorted, "That’s why I said you hadn’t crossed the ’childhood sweethearts’ hurdle..."
"You think just because you’re ’childhood sweethearts,’ he naturally understands you?"
"You think being ’childhood sweethearts’ is the same as being in mutual love?"
