Kelly froze for a moment. What did she even like to cat? 90% +8 Pearls Five years in Solmaris, where the only food she had was bland grits, canned food, and things like luncheon meat. The vegetables and fruits were bitter and dry. Occasionally, she'd get a tasteless cucumber, but that was already considered a luxury.
Every day, Lucas's men prepared something special for Zev. He would hand her tomatoes and cucumbers, jokingly telling those people that his wife was a rabbit, didn't like meat, and had to eat grass instead.
During those years, Zev brought her rare, though not fresh, fruits every day.
She remembered a twhen Zev had cdown with a high fever after coming into contact with a local child who was infected. Back then, Kelly had been surprised that Zev still had shumanity left in him.
In light of that, Kelly had taken care of Zev as he battled his fever.
"Kelly, when we get back home, I'll take you out for barbecue." Zev had mumbled through his feverish haze, as though promising to take Kelly for barbecue and fondue. "Kelly?" In the restaurant, noticing Kelly had spaced out, Eric called out to her. "What would you like to eat? I'll buy it for you." Kelly snapped out of her trance, meeting Eric's gaze.

"You go ahead," Kelly replied, feeling no appetite. She typed a message, asking Eric to eat alone. "Once you're done, we'll sign the divorce papers." Eric furrowed his brows, looking at Kelly. "Are you eager to divorce me? When I married Regina, I truly thought you were gone. If I'd known you were still alive, I never would've married her." "You toldyou'd sign the divorce papers when I came," Kelly said, frowning as she stared at Eric. Eric lowered his gaze, took a deep breath, and glanced at the divorce agreement Kelly had handed him.
The agreement stated that Kelly would keep the old house and all the compensation for the property demolition, while for their shared home, Kelly only wanted the portion of the down payment her family had contributed. She wasn't counting the interest or the increase in property prices over the years.
Eric stared at the agreement, his brows furrowing. "Kelly, if we're being precise, the demolition compensation should also be considered marital property." Of course, he had the audacity to ask Kelly for that money.
"And what about the hefty accident insurance you bought for my parents?" Kelly questioned sharply.

Eric rushed to explain. "Kelly, you know me. Even if I made a mistake with Regina, would never....
He would never do something bad.
Eric stopped himself before finishing, unable to bring himself to say the words.
"Tyson and my parents would never have committed suicide," Kelly typed, staring at Eric. "I hope this has nothing to do with you." Eric took a deep breath, his hands clenched the edge of the table beneath him.
In that moment, Eric realized something-he and Kelly could never go back to how they were. In fact, they might even end up as enemies.
But Eric still held onto the past feelings he had for Kelly, not wanting to hurt her. However, how long could his conflicting emotions and feelings last? "I never wanted to divorce you. It never crossed my mind," Eric said, looking at Kelly. He picked up the pen and signed his non the agreement.
Kelly took the divorce agreement and looked at Eric's signature. She knew Eric too well, so she was just as familiar with his handwriting.
But the way he signed this agreement was completely different from his usual.
"Kelly, even if we divorce, I'll make sure to fight for what's rightfully yours. The Lynches aren't good people. They have money, and the harm they've caused you should be compensated. They've agreed to pay you 1.5 million in compensation, but I think that's too little. If they can afford this amount of money, they can definitely give two million. When we go to Beau's office for the negotiation, you should ask for two million." Eric's hand gripped the edge of the table tighter, and he dared not look at Kelly, just speaking on his own.
But Kelly never took her eyes off him.

Eric finally gathered the courage to look at Kelly, but when their eyes met, he quickly averted his gaze. Kelly quietly watched Eric, saying nothing.
"Let's go, Kelly. I'll take you there." e.
Eric stood up, ready to take Kelly to the hospital director's office. Kelly followed silently, walking behind Eric.
