Divorce Following Pregnancy

Lillian had someone send the signed divorce agreement to the law firm and then headed to the company.

She had considerable sharp business acumen.

She had not only invested a lot of money to save the Anderson Group from crisis but also helped expand it significantly over the past three years.

As the Anderson Group grew, there were more conflicts between Lillian and Liam. So she voluntarily quit her job at the Anderson Group six months ago and only kept her title as a deputy general manager.

Since she planned to divorce, it was time to separate the two families completely.

Lillian submitted her resignation. Soon, the HR manager came to her anxiously. "Ms. Walsh, your resignation is a major decision. It's beyond my authority. I'm afraid that we'll need Liam's approval."

Lillian replied bitterly, "It's okay. Just submit it to him."

The HR manager breathed a sigh of relief and quickly forwarded her resignation to Liam.

Seeing Lillian's pale face, the HR manager assumed that Lillian had a fight with Liam and cautiously tried to console her. "Lillian, did you and Liam have a fight? Your contributions to the Anderson family over the years have been obvious to everyone. Liam loves you dearly. He surely wouldn't want you to leave the company. Why not sit down and talk things over?"

As soon as the HR manager's words fell, Lillian's computer chimed with a notification.

Her resignation had been approved.

The HR manager looked astonished.

Lillian was stunned. Then she gave a self-mocking smile.

She quickly arranged for the handover of her work and packed her things. Then she headed home.

As soon as she entered the room, Liam stormed towards her in anger.

He didn't even glance at what she was carrying. He snatched the box from her hands and smashed it onto the floor. "Lillian, isn't it enough that you slapped Lindsay? Now you're forcing her to resign? You are going too far to bully her like that."

Lillian lowered her gaze to the scattered items on the floor. The photo album on top contained pictures of her and Liam. She had deliberately placed it on her desk at her office.

It now lay shattered, mirroring her broken relationship with Liam.

She resigned, and he approved it instantly. But when Lindsay threw a tantrum and quit her job, he came to confront and blame her.

Lillian felt it was absurd. "Her resignation has nothing to do with me."

Liam, however, didn't believe her words at all. He stepped towards her and didn't notice that he had stepped on the photo of him and her.

He grabbed her wrist and forcefully dragged her outside. "If it's not you, then who forced her? You're coming with me to apologize to Lindsay right now."

He exerted so much force that Lillian's wrist throbbed with pain. Her face turned pale instantly.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she couldn't hold back her anger any longer. "Liam, who's really going too far? Is it me or you? "She's just a homewrecker and brazenly showed off in front of me. I slapped her because she deserved it. I told you her quitting has nothing to do with me. I will never apologize to her. Let go of me. Let go!"

She couldn't hold back any longer and used all her strength to break free. In the end, she bit down on his wrist.

Liam winced from the pain and instinctively flung her away.

Lillian was unprepared and staggered backward. Then she fell to the floor.

Her wrist landed on the shattered glass from the photo frame. She shivered from the pain and felt a dull ache spread from her abdomen.

Liam was startled. His anger doused as he hurriedly crouched down. "Lillian, I didn't mean it. I..."

Lillian ignored the pain in her wrist and clutched her abdomen. She said with great difficulty, "Take me to the hospital now. I'm pregnant..."

Just as Liam was about to lift her, his phone rang, interrupting her sentence.

He answered it, and his face lit up with joy.

"You found her? I'll be right there!" With that, he said to her quickly, "Let the driver take you to the hospital." Then he rushed out.

Lillian watched his heartless departure and couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

She propped herself up against the sofa, pushed through the pain, and drove herself to the hospital.
