A Divorce Make Me Rich

Despite Anthony being in a wheelchair, it was evident that Raymond was no match for him.

The fist that was swung over was easily grasped by Anthony without any effort, rendering it immobile.

He easily handcuffed Raymond with just one hand.

His blue eyes turned sharp, and with a firm grip, his fair fingers exerted force. Raymond’s face immediately changed color as he cried out in pain.

“Ouch, ouch, ouch! My hand! It’s going to break!”

Mavis was frightened and quickly went to stop them, “Don’t hit him. Anthony, let go quickly.”

Anthony’s expression grew colder as he stared at her, “You didn’t see that he was the one who made the first move. I was just acting in self-defense.”

She choked on her words and said, “He’s young and inexperienced. I apologize on his behalf. He’s not like you. He doesn’t have any skills. You could hurt him if you continue like this. Please let go first.”

Anthony narrowed his cold eyes and not only did he not let go, but he also used a bit of skill.

“Ah ah!! Save me, save me!”

Raymond’s face turned pale and he immediately collapsed, leaning against Anthony’s wheelchair while still struggling and moaning in pain.

“Anthony!” Mavis tried to help, but unfortunately Anthony’s hand strength was too strong and she couldn’t budge his strength at all.

Kane stood in the nearby hallway, silently watching.

Mavis had to ask for his help, “Kane, Kane can you please help me?”

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Callahan, my duty is to protect Mr. Callahan,” Kane said calmly without any intention of stepping forward to help stop Anthony.

Anthony’s lips curled slightly as he spoke in a tone that seemed to be coated with frost, “You weak and foolish idiot, so young and yet you’re being kept by her?”

As he spoke, his cold gaze turned piercing, and he swiftly grabbed Raymond’s arm, giving it a ruthless twist.

“Ah!!!”

The screams were about to pierce the sky.

Raymond almost fainted in pain, his whole body shaking uncontrollably from the agony.

Anthony remained expressionless as he released Raymond with disdain, letting him collapse to the ground. “You disrespectful brat. Consider your broken arm a lesson in manners,” he remarked coldly.

Raymond was rolling back and forth on the ground, clutching his twisted arm in agony that felt like it was tearing him apart.

Mavis’s eyes turned red as she rushed over to check on Raymond’s condition, and immediately called for an ambulance.

When she looked up at Anthony again, her eyes were colder than ever before.

“Anthony, you have never truly respected me. You call any opposite sex around me random men, implying that they are being supported by me. You haven’t changed in all these years and thank you for completely shattering the last bit of filter I had on my first love.”

Raymond curled up in her arms, looking at his twisted arm, and gradually broke down emotionally.

“Sis, am I disabled? I should sue him for domestic violence and abuse of a family member. I demand a divorce. You have to get divorced!”

Anthony’s face stiffened. “Sister?” Even Kane, who was standing nearby, was stunned. Sister? Domestic violence… Could it be his own sister?

It suddenly dawned on Kane that Anthony had sent him to Teflayria to retrieve Mavis’ household registration book for their marriage certificate. He had seen Mavis’ registration and knew she had a younger brother. But this guy didn’t look anything like him! Raymond in the household registration book had yellowish skin and looked rough around the edges, plus he didn’t even go by the name Raymond!

How could someone change so much over the years?Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Kane felt frustrated and regretful that things went awry. He quickly rushed over to help out.

“Mrs. Callahan, let me do it instead,” he said as he ran up to them. “The stairs are inconvenient and it’s difficult to carry a stretcher down here. I’ll carry him downstairs ”

He swiftly carried Raymond down the stairs while Mavis followed closely behind, completely ignoring Anthony who was left behind.

Ten minutes later, they heard an ambulance siren blaring from downstairs before gradually fading away.

When Kane returned to Green Grove Apartment again, he saw Anthony sitting in the wheelchair outside with his hand on his forehead looking worried.

“Mr. Callahan,” Kane said hesitantly as he approached him. “She wouldn’t let me follow them to the hospital so I came back…”

Anthony felt annoyed and agitated as he asked Kane, “You followed them all day but you didn’t realize they’re siblings?”

Kane made an awkward expression on his face.

Who knew? It was easy to misunderstand when he saw two people behaving intimately. Mavis even gave him a key to her room. It was no wonder there would be misunderstandings.

He couldn’t explain himself any further except apologize, “I’m sorry Mr. Callahan. I wasn’t observant enough this time around.”

This wasn’t just about finding out whose fault it was anymore…

Now that Anthony accidentally hit his little brother-in-law, causing him a broken arm. The misunderstanding could lead into something bigger than anticipated!

“Sir, we should quickly find a way to remedy the situation. Originally, Mrs. Callahan had loosened her stance on divorce due to Alistair, intending to wait until you recover before discussing it. But now you have completely offended your brother-in-law, and it may not be easy to resolve this.”

Did they really need someone pointing out how clear yet unfavorable their current situation was?

Anthony became extremely irritated at everything going wrong at once. Glaring at Kane, he rubbed his forehead with frustration.

As he was striking, he felt a sense of satisfaction. However, now that he realized he mistakenly struck his brother-in-law, his emotions become more complicated and frustrated.

At the hospital:

Raymond finished getting checked by doctors.

His right arm was fractured, but fortunately, he received timely medical treatment, and there was no bone necrosis. With proper care and rest, it would take about two to three months for it to heal.

His arm was suspended in a triangular frame, and even eating had become difficult for him in the past few months. Mavis could only accompany him and take care of him.

“Sis, I’m really miserable. I finally came to find you, but ended up with all these injuries.”

It was indeed miserable. Just two hours after getting off the plane, he went to buy groceries together with Mavis and hadn’t even had lunch yet when he ended up in the hospital.

In order to recover quickly from his injuries, he could only eat light food now.

Raymond felt aggrieved just thinking about it. “He is too ruthless. This kind of man is dangerous. He will definitely become abusive at home. He hit me this time. Next time it might be you! We can’t let him get away with this!”

Mavis sat beside him, patiently feeding him a spoonful of porridge. “Yes, I have already reported it to the police and requested that NIB intervene in our divorce proceedings. If Anthony does not agree, I will appeal to the court for compulsory divorce.”

“That’s right! That’s how it should be! Ouch!”

He accidentally moved his injured arm, causing his face contort in pain.

“I know you’re upset but don’t move around too much. Doctors are coming soon for an injury assessment and representatives from NIB will also come here to understand what happened, so just tell them everything truthfully.”

“Okay.”

Soon there were many people coming into the room besides doctors and nurses doing assessments including Malcolm and Lyra.

Mavis was somewhat surprised, “It was originally just a small matter. Mr. White, you shouldn’t have personally come over here asking about my brother’s situation or made Lyra go through all this trouble as well. I’m really sorry.”

Lyra lightly patted her hand back, “After all your own brother has been involved in something like this, so we should come visit regardless if its official business or not”

Malcolm handed over a basket of fruit along with flowers as well as ginseng supplements.

Mavis received them both hands feeling warm inside, “You guys are very thoughtful”.

Soon after that doctor finished Raymond’s injury assessment along with nurse, only Malcolm and Lyra were left behind

After listening carefully Raymond’s summary of what happened, Malcolm asked, “From what you’ve explained so far, it seems like you were the first one who initiated physical contact?”

Raymond didn’t lie, “Yes, I did start first but even if I did hit him, it wouldn’t have caused any serious damage. He wanted nothing less than disabling my hand completely! The way he looked at me then… It seemed like he wanted nothing more than kill me outright. He’s terrifying!”

Malcolm and Lyra exchanged glances understanding each other without saying anything further.

Anthony did have a strong possessive nature, and if he perceived someone as a romantic rival, he can indeed exhibit a fierce determination to eliminate that person. It was within his capabilities to resort to extreme measures.

Several people were chatting when a NIB officer standing guard outside suddenly knocked on the door and reported, “Mr. White, Mr. Callahan is here. He wants to see the injured person and talk face-to-face.”
