Chapter131
Half an hour later, Julio hurriedly arrived, with a bruise on the
corner of his lips.
Bethany furrowed her brow, Presley said her father had hit her.
Julio sat down, adjusted his glasses, and smiled, saying,
“Dummy, what would you like to drink?”
Bethany’s heart felt heavy. Despite the significant event that
had occurred, which had even prompted Presley to come and
find her, he had also been beaten, yet he could still manage to
smile.
Bethany gestured heavily, “Did it hurt?”
Julio’s lips trembled, but he immediately smiled again, “Are you
talking about the injury on the corner of my mouth? Just a little.
scratch, it doesn’t hurt.”
He refused to talk about his family matters.
She had no choice but to ask him directly in sign language, “Did
Terrence bother you?”
Julio’s eyes froze.
Chapter131
He clenched his fist and asked, “Did my mom come to see you?”
No matter how I knew it, I didn’t add that lawyer, and I won’t
ask you to help me find a lawyer in the future. Please explain it
clearly to the family and see if
MMS possible to have a peaceful
communication with him.
“How can you get divorced without hiring a lawyer?”
From the first day he returned to his country and saw Bethany,
he could see the sadness in her eyes.
Based on her personality, she would definitely not get a divorce.
unless it reached an unbearable point.
“You couldn’t even handle your own matters, yet you’re
concerned about mine.”
Julio comforted Bethany, saying, “It’s nothing, don’t worry. The
Mendez Group can handle a little trouble, don’t take it to heart.”
Bethany was a little anxious. If it was just a small disturbance,
how could Presley possibly come to find her?
“Don’t speak so lightly, I know who he is. Tell me, what is the
situation?”
Bethany’s gestures were messy, Julio knew she was worried
Chapter131
about him.
She has always been kind since she was young and was also
afraid of causing trouble for others.
At that moment, she must ha
felt very guilty in her heart.
“Believe me, it’s really okay. I am not the same Julio you knew in
the past. If I were afraid of him, I wouldn’t have introduced you.
to a divorce lawyer, Dummy. If you are determined to get a
divorce, I will help you at any cost.”
Julio spoke earnestly, and the last four words, emphasized the
intensity, indicating his determination.
But Bethany didn’t want to.
Until now, she only realized that if Terrence refused to divorce,
she would have to pay a very, very high price if she wanted to
divorce.
And she had only six months to live, there was no need for Julio
to sacrifice for her.
She was unwilling to burden anyone.
She had to make a hypocritical sign language.
“Actually, I didn’t really want to get a divorce. Last time in
Chapter131
Alenia, there was a thunderstorm that night, right? I was very
scared, so I called him, but he ignored me. That’s why I got a
little angry and impulsively wanted a divorce. Later, I found out
that it wasn’t that he didn’t want to come see me, but the
transportation was inconvenient and he couldn’t come. It’s
inevitable for couples to have some conflicts and quarrels.”
Julio’s smile disappeared as he stared at Bethany seriously,
“Dummy, do you know that you are not at all clever when you
lie.”
Bethany was stunned. Did she hide it so poorly?
It was not until many years later that Bethany realized that
someone who cares about you will always find out your
concerns, no matter how well you hide them.
People who don’t care about you, even if you tear open the
truth and present it to them, they won’t believe it.
Bethany still firmly told Julio, “I really didn’t get divorced.”
Julio’s heart felt as if it was being gripped by an invisible hand,
almost suffocating.
It was not because of Dummy that she refused to divorce.
But he was also so incompetent that he couldn’t protect Dummy
Chapter131
properly.
But it wouldn’t be long, he would definitely free Dummy from Terrence’s shackles.
Julio lowered his gaze and smiled, saying, “Okay, since you don’t want a divorce, let’s forget about finding a lawyer for now.”
Bethany anxiously gestured, “Hurry back and explain to your family, so they can send someone to negotiate with him.”
She was Mrs. McConnell for seven years. Although she never involved herself in Terrence’s business affairs, she silently
observed everything about him. He had immense capital and
could easily manipulate the business world. Those who opposed
him did not fare well.

She had seen a company that opposed him go bankrupt, asked
him once, he was very unhappy, told her that the business.
world is like a battlefield, if you don’t bring down the opponent,
even if they have a glimmer of hope, they will find ways to
bring you down, the competition in the business world is
ruthless, so she should put away those naive thoughts and take
good care of the family, it’s best not to ask about other matters.
He said so, and she thought it should be a normal business
competition relationship. She had nothing to say.
But this time, although she didn’t know what he did to the
Mendez family, it was obvious that it involved personal matters.
Because she loved him, she viewed everything about him
through a filter.
She always thought that people like him, who could hold high
positions, would disdain using any despicable means.
Actually, not so.
In order to achieve his goal, he was not unwilling to resort to
any means.
