Female Novel
Chapter 2371
Gordan called him the moment he replied to him.
"Brother, isn't it Sunday in A City today?" Gordan asked the moment Luke answered the phone.
"It's Saturday," Luke corrected him softly as he turned on his computer and looked at his unread workemails.
"You don't look at your phone on a Saturday? I've been looking for you all day." Gordan's tone was alittle impatient, but he respected Luke, so he did not throw a tantrum despite his frustrations beingaccumulated all day.
"I had some work to deal with, so I put my phone on mute. I didn't pay much attention to it afterward."Luke read his emails one after another patiently. He noticed Gordan's anxious voice but did not ask himwhat it was about.
He did not need to ask Gordan to know why he was looking for him.
If he had known it would come to this, he would not have acted that way.
"Ahem, are you that busy?" Gordan wanted to immediately ask what was on his mind, but he heldback.
"It's the end of the year," Luke continued with his short replies. Since Gordan did not ask, he did notintend to mention anything.
"Uh, did Vivian arrive at A City?" Gordan could not help and finally asked.
"I don't know." Luke stopped typing on the keyboard for a second, then he continued typing loudly as ifnothing had happened.
"I've checked. She's flown over. Brother, just tell me the truth." Gordan frowned and wondered whyLuke would not tell him. After all, they had gone through hell together before.
'He was almost tortured to death by those from the Island of Despair because of Vivian. Why is he stillsiding with her?'
"I really don't know." Luke did not react. He had promised Ray to lie for Vivian.
However, he did not expect Gordan to check where Vivian had gone.
"The plane she boarded with Ray went to A City. You're telling me that Ray went over and didn't lookfor you?" Although Gordan knew that Luke was helping them, he could not do anything.
"Have you signed them?" Luke asked.
"What?" Gordan did not understand what he was talking about.
Luke said, "The divorce papers."
He did not follow up on their divorce, so he did not know whether they were divorced or not.
"We're divorced." Gordan's voice revealed slight frustration.
He had insisted that he would not sign anything until he could talk to Vivian about it face-to-face. In theend, Ray brought a lawyer to his door and forced him to sign the document.novelbin
He was unprepared and was beaten up so badly that he had bruises all over his face. The lawyergrabbed his hand and stamped his finger on the agreement, so the divorce document took effect.
After that, Ray had his men keep watch of him and sent his lawyer to officiate the divorce agreement.
In the end, he was divorced and there was no way for him to reverse it.
Since Vivian filed for divorce, he had not seen her. He wanted to talk to her but could not find her.
"Since you're divorced, go live your own life. You're still you; she's still her. Why does it matter to youwhere she is?" Luke sensed his frustration and broke it down for him.
"We got married because she wanted to and now we're divorced because she wanted to as well. Don'tI have the right to choose?" Gordan was a little angry. Vivian relied on Ray to force him to compromiseboth times.
It was the same for their marriage and divorce!
"Didn't you always want a divorce? She fulfilled your wish. Why are you bothered now?" Luke asked.
Gordan froze, and his hands clenched into fists.
He wanted to get a divorce, but he was pissed that it happened this way...
Gordan was overthinking the situation. Vivian wanted him more than anything, but in the end, she stillfiled for divorce. He was fuming as he thought she was playing tricks on him!
"Yes, I want this divorce, but I also have something to say!"
"What?" Luke asked. He heard Gordan's unwilling tone and was unclear if it was because he likedVivian or whether he was pissed for being dumped like this.
No matter which it was, Gordan did not seem to understand that Vivian was determined to cut him out.
Vivian was avoiding him because she wanted to quickly move on.
'What?'
Gordan was taken back.
What did he want to say to Vivian? Call her disrespectful for coercing him into marriage and divorce?
Perhaps he wanted to scold her for leaving the house without his consent? Would he tell her that he didnot need a dime of their family's money?
"I'm a man. Even if we get divorced, the division of properties between husband and wife should benegotiated. Did she leave the villa to me out of pity?"
'Was Vivian trying to pay me off?
'After we broke up, she gave me a property worth millions. Does she think of me as a prostitute? I don'tneed her money. It's not a lot anyway!'
"You feel like you've been given a handout?" Luke said.
"Yes, I want to talk to her and divide our properties properly. I don't need her charity. Brother, if youwere treated like this by a woman, wouldn't you be upset?" Gordan gritted his teeth.
"Bea wouldn't treat me like that," Luke said. He glanced at the door. Luca seemed to still be upstairs.
"I didn't mean that!" Gordan was exasperated.
"What Vivian gave you is yours. If you think she's insulting you by doing this, you can sell the houseand donate the money. You won't have to benefit her like this. Gordan, there are many ways to dealwith the situation. It's not necessary to find someone who doesn't want to see you," Luke elaborated.
Luke was not sure if Gordan reacted as such because he was pissed about the villa or if he wanted tosee Vivian.
Luke hoped that Gordan would think about it.
"I..." Gordan was a little frustrated. There was no way he could refute Luke.
"Perhaps Vivian isn't as complicated as you think. Maybe she thought that you liked the villa, so shewanted to leave it to you," Luke expressed Vivian's original intention.
She only bought the villa because Gordan liked it.
The renovation was based on his preferences, so even when they divorced, she just wanted to leavehim with what he liked.
Gordan stayed silent for half a minute. In the end, he would rather stubbornly believe that Vivian actedas such to humiliate him.
‘She must be taking revenge. I treated her badly, so she's using money to humiliate me!'
"I can buy whatever I like. Brother, are you sure you don't want to help me contact her?" Gordan wassure Luke knew where Vivian and Ray were.
"There's nothing I can do about your issue," Luke said. He was once willing to trade an arm forGordan's freedom.
However, at that moment, he could not make a sacrifice to have them deal with their affairs.
After all, it was between him and Vivian. No one could intervene.
