The Fifth Year of Marriage to Him novel Chapter 318

Chapter 318

“What are you doing?”

Harlan asked him.

“For the medical bills. I’ll cover them.”

He transferred a sum of money, enough for Harlan and Maricela to see a doctor, recover, and even go on a trip.

Harlan scoffed. “What do I need your money for?

You think I can’t afford to get this treated?”

“It’s my responsibility, so I’ll pay.”

Maricela said from the side, “It’s not your responsibility anymore, Cedrick. Aren’t you… divorcing Lucille?

He’s not your brother–in–law anymore.”

Cedrick froze, then lowered his head in despair.

“What’s wrong?

Is it already final?”

Harlan guessed.

Cedrick nodded. “Yeah.”

Harlan sneered. “So ruthless. Couldn’t even wait a single day to get it done.”

“Cedrick…” Maricela called to him, taking a clear box from her bag. It was filled with Wishing Tokens. “Cedrick, don’t be sad. This is for you. May the rest of your life be smooth and happy.”

Cedrick’s gaze fell on the Wishing Tokens, but a sour feeling grew in his heart.

“Thanks.”

He said hoarsely.

Chapter 318

“What’s with you?”

Harlan scolded him. “Mari spent several all–nighters folding these things for you. She got hurt last night, beaten up like that, and she was still folding them for you. As soon as they were done, she had to bring them to you today. She cares so much about her looks, but she didn’t even care if people would laugh at her face!

And here you are, acting all lifeless.

But Cedrick didn’t react much, just repeated, “Thanks.”

“Cedrick…” Maricela’s eyes turned red, looking like she was about to cry. “I don’t want your thanks. I just want you to be happy.”

“Yeah, it doesn’t matter that the business is gone. What’s important is that we’re still together, living happily!

We started from scratch. With the company at this size, how can it be harder than when we first started?

We’ll just earn a little less, that’s all!”

Harlan added.

“Yeah, Cedrick, even though you’re divorced, you still have us. We’ll always be with you.”

Maricela said with red eyes, pouting.

But Harlan kept giving her looks, and she didn’t understand what he meant.

“I know, I know I still have you guys.”

Cedrick rubbed the bridge of his nose. “I’m just a little tired. I want to be alone for a bit.”

“Are you… trying to get rid of us?”

Harlan said unhappily.

Cedrick shook his head. “That’s not what I mean. It’s just that there are some things I haven’t sorted out yet. I need to calm down and think.”

“About the asset division?”

Harlan pressed.
