Chapter 321 Dinner Before Goodbye

James started to dislike dogs from that day on.

He also didn’t want to see Jackson’s flamboyant, annoying face ever again. But he knew Lily was eager to get the divorce certificate. In order to get his grandfather, Henry’s approval sooner, he still spoke in a calm tone, “If he’s free tomorrow night, he can come over for dinner.

Dinner tomorrow night….

That meant the day after tomorrow, we’d be finalizing our divorce.

A dull ache pressed against Lily’s chest.

We got married so abruptly. He felt wronged and disgusted by it. I had already promised to go through with the divorce and wouldn’t go back on my word.

Even though I’m deeply in love with him.

“Lily…”

Urged by him, she quickly replied, “He… he’s always free. I’ll bring him over tomorrow night.”

“Okay.”

Maybe emotions were contagious, James also felt tightness and bitterness in his chest.

Still, worried she might stress about his grandfather not approving their divorce, he pushed the pain down and tried to reassure her.

“Don’t worry. I only like men. I can’t be with a woman. Even if Grandpa disapproves tomorrow night, I’ll still go with you to the marriage office the day after tomorrow. Let’s just keep it from him for now. He’ll agree sooner or later.”

Lily gave a soft nod.

He is clearly in a rush to get this divorce done. I’ll cooperate without hesitation.

I had already told Mr. Dean that my final performance would be the night after tomorrow.

Once I finish my last performance of “Cherry”, I’ll leave Capital City.

He will stay here, and I will return to a small town in the South. We’d never cross paths again.

Ashton was determined to earn that double year-end bonus.

He called in a few of his toughest guys. Though usually polished and well-mannered, he fought with ruthless speed and precision-classic polished thug.

The three Ginger brothers were all skilled fighters.

But Ashton and his team were no pushovers either.

And numbers mattered. Three pairs of fists were no match for several. The Ginger brothers took quite a beating, their faces scratched and bruised.

The commotion got so loud that someone called the cops. Once the officers arrived and broke up the fight, both sides finally stepped back.

No one was seriously injured, and neither side pressed charges, so after a few stern warnings, the cops let them all go.

The Ginger brothers were in a foul mood that night.

Even at the hospital, they refused treatment for their wounds.

After the doctor finished treating Mathilda, they took her home to the Ginger estate.

Once there, Bodger didn’t return to his own room. Instead, he found himself drawn to Lily’s.

The room had been cleaned daily by housekeepers and kept just the way she had left it-like she had never really gone.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw the plush bunny sitting on her vanity.

I had given it to her for her seventh birthday.

Its eyes were two sparkling diamonds. Paired with its fluffy white fur, it was irresistibly cute.

She used to love that bunny so much. Smiling sweetly, she had said I was the best.

She said she had the best brother in the world, and that made her the happiest girl alive.

Beside the bunny sat a pair of pink, cat-shaped diamond hair clips.

A gift from me on her eighth birthday.

I remembered the way she had smiled so brightly at me while blowing out her birthday candles.

I knew her wish had something to do with me.

Because I was her favorite brother.

But that warm little girl, like a ray of sunshine pulling me out of the dark, no longer wanted to call me her brother.

In fact, the way she looked at me now was filled with disgust and hatred.
