Nelson had just signed his name when his phone suddenly rang . The assistant's voice came through the line , " Mr. Goodall , Ms. Compton has sprained her ankle . She's in too much pain to walk ... ' Nelson's expression darkened . " I'll be right there . " He put away his phone and looked at Jocelyn . " Kaila is injured . I need to check on her . We can have dinner another time . " " No need . " Jocelyn clutched the divorce agreement tightly . " I don't need your company ever again . " Nelson frowned , as if he wanted to say something , but after a moment , he simply turned and left . Jocelyn went to a law firm . The lawyer carefully reviewed the agreement and nodded . " The agreement is valid . It will officially take effect after a one - month cooling - off period . " " Thank you . " After leaving the law firm , Jocelyn went to school . In the principal's office , she handed in her resignation letter . " Jocelyn ? " the principal asked , surprised . " You've always done a great job as a teacher . Why are you resigning suddenly ? " " I'm getting divorced , " Jocelyn's voice was steady . I want to leave this city . " The principal sighed , " Alright . Finish the last few classes of this semester , and you can leave . " Thank you . " Jocelyn walked out of the office and took a deep breath . During her final class , she forced herself into the classroom , only to see Nelson and Kaila together in the corner . Nelson , dressed in a suit , sat in the back row , with Kaila leaning on his shoulder . They were whispering and laughing , their fingers intertwined . Jocelyn's heart tightened sharply . 000 44 16 % " AD Facebook OPEN > Play Games on Facebook See which Facebook Instant Games are trending now . Ohen the ann < 2 " I'll stay far away from Mr. Goodall from now on . Please , don't be angry ... " Nelson walked over quickly , his expression dark and intimidating . " Jocelyn ! Didn't you sign the agreement ? Why are you still giving Kaila a hard time ? " " I didn't . " Jocelyn looked at him calmly . " She did it herself . " " Mr. Goodall ... " Kaila wailed , burrowing into Nelson's embrace . " Maybe ... maybe you shouldn't pursue me anymore . Ms. Shaw is so angry ... I'm scared ... " Nelson pulled her into his arms . " Don't be afraid . She's just a nobody . " Menu Kaila , with eyes rimmed red from crying , spoke timidly , " But Ms. Shaw is your wife after all . She threatened me to leave you and even slapped me ... " Her voice broke . " I've never been so humiliated ... " Nelson's eyes darkened . His thumb gently stroked her reddened cheek , his voice soft as he comforted her , " Don't be upset . How about I let you slap her as much as you feel like it ? " Menu Nelson used to prioritize work above everything , even returning to the company after just three days of honeymoon . Now , he could abandon a trillion - dollar contract to sit through a dull elective class with Kaila . She took a deep breath and stepped up to the podium . " Today , we'll talk about classic literature ... " Throughout the class , she could hear the soft laughter from the back row . Nelson's deep voice and Kaila's flirtatious response felt like knives stabbing into Jocelyn's heart . The bell rang , and Jocelyn almost ran out of the classroom . In the restroom , she splashed cold water on her face . As she was about to leave , she heard Kaila's voice coming from a stall . " Nelson abandoned a trillion - dollar contract just to chase after me , and he came to attend class with me , " Kaila bragged to someone on the phone . " You didn't see the way he looked at me just now . It was so affectionate . " Her friend asked , " If he likes you so much , why don't you agree to be with him ? " " Are you stupid ? " Kaila mocked , " Men like Nelson have women throwing themselves at them all the time . The only way to keep him interested is to never give in completely , be sometimes close , sometimes distant . That's how I'll keep him hooked . " She lowered her voice . "I won't settle for being just a mistress ; I want to be his wife . " Jocelyn stood still , her fingernails digging into her palm . She walked out with a blank expression , passing right by Kaila . " Ms. Shaw ! " Kaila quickly hung up and grabbed her . " What did you hear ? " " Nothing . " Jocelyn shook off her hand . It has nothing to do with me . " Kaila was about to ask more when she noticed Nelson approaching out of the corner of her eye . Her eyes shifted , and she suddenly grabbed Jocelyn's wrist , slapping herself hard across the face . " Slap ! " The sound echoed sharply down the corridor . " Ms. Shaw ... " Kaila covered her face , tears streaming down , her voice shaking with grievance . 00 44 AD Facebook 1.6 % Menu
