Sweet Divorce

Chapter 108 Rita’s Determination

“Action!”

The director shouted and the whole field was silent immediately.

All the people there paid their attention to the man and the girl, watching Liam walking to Rita elegantly. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Hearing the steps nearer, Rita was clenching her hands subconsciously.

Although she said a thousand times to herself that she shouldn’t be nervous, she had no experience of taking a film so she became anxious at the sight of the camera.

“OK. Now it’s the time for the actress to turn around.”

Hearing what the director said, Rita turned around at once.

Looking at Liam’s handsome face, she smiled beautifully in delight.

As the script wrote, she stood on her tiptoes and came close to him. And also, she paused in front of the man’s lips as she told the director in advance.

At this moment, Liam stared down at the good-looking girl, shocked.

In the sun, her clear face was covered by the golden sunshine, which warmed his cold heart.

He scanned her face and then stopped at her soft and pink lips.

He didn’t know what he was doing but tended to lean towards her subconsciously.

And he held her waist for an instant with his big pretty hands and pulled her towards him fiercely. He kissed her.

Feeling the warmth from the lips, Rita was stunned.

After a few seconds, she was able to push him away, “What are you doing?” Shameless!

“The actress should stay still and the kiss should continue. The advertisement needs it.” As soon as she struggled, the director stopped her instantly.

She frowned embarrassedly.

What the hell?

“Rita, you should obey what the director tells you.” Liam said and came closer to her.

Looking at his lips, she was stupefied.

How could he become so obedient now?

Obviously, he did it on purpose.

Realizing this, Rita was more reluctant.

When she was absent-minded, Liam was ready to kiss her again.

And she was sober and put a meal card between them swiftly.

Liam failed to kiss her.

Although they kiss on the meal card, she was attracted by him when staring at his eyes.

Her heart beat more quickly, which made her annoyed and unsettled.

Calm down, Rita.

‘It’s just a kiss. And you shouldn’t be fond of him again.’

‘Stay reasonable. You know that he does not love you. What he does now is out of guilty and he wants to compensate you.’

‘It’s not love.’

‘No!’

Thinking of these, she was peaceful again without any emotion.

“Very good! Perfect! Cut”

Hearing what the director said, Rita seemed to be saved at once with a relieved look.

Immediately, she stepped back to keep away from Liam.

And she avoided communicating with him consciously and left the field after talking for a while with the staffs there.

The meal card dropped down at Liam’s feet.

He bent down to pick up the card with their warmth, staring at her back with bitterness.

Did he disgust her?

She even didn’t want to pick up the card touched by him.

He put the card into his pocket sadly and left the field as well, following her.

Rita walked out of the university, followed by Liam.

Noticing her embarrassment of stumbling to the bus station, he could not help persuading her softly, “Now everyone is returning home. There cannot be a seat for you. You legs must ache. Let me drive

you home.”

“No, thank you.” Rita shook her head.

“Listen to me.” Liam said and held her shoulders, walking towards the parking lot.

Although he tried to be nice to her, Rita misunderstood and considered his behavior bossy and forceful.

Her face turned cold and she stayed still.

“Liam, let’s have a talk.”

“Well.” At the sight of her expression, Liam nodded.

“Did you bring my star necklace?”

“Yes.” He always brought it.

“Give it to me.”

Although he was puzzled, he took out the necklace without hesitation carefully and put it to her hand as long as she wanted it.

Staring at it, she became sentimental.

It was the symbol of her bold love. But the ending was so painful to her that she got many inspirations. This time, she wouldn’t force him to love her and didn’t want to hurt herself again.

Since they had no love, it’s good for them to cut the connection. She didn’t want to live with him, wasting time.

Thinking of these, she looked at him seriously.

“If you want to compensate me, then forget our experience. Now, we are independent and don’t trouble each other any longer.”

Rita threw the necklace into an artificial lake, and turned back to leave resolutely.

“I can’t forget it.” However, when she was still near him, his voice sounded behind firmly in a low tone.

Rita was surprised and paused.

After a few seconds, she smiled indifferently and left.

It depended on whether to forget it.

She was unwilling to think about him. After all, time would pass and the end, everything could be out of mind.

Looking at her back, Liam looked down disappointedly.

Eventually, she didn’t trust him.

He smiled bitterly and looked at the position where the necklace dropped and jumped into the lake without hesitation.

In the dirty lake, he tried his best to search for it.

Because the water was not clear, he had to look for it inch by inch.

However, after a long time, he didn’t find it, which seemed to disappear.

Because he didn’t breathe above the water, he was short of oxygen with red eyes.

But he was so stubborn that he refused to come out of the water and continued his searching in the lake.

Jacob watched what happened just now. Liam stayed in the lake so long that he jumped as well directly.

Looking at Liam’s pale face, he gave him a signal of leaving.

But his signal was ignored and Liam was still scouting around the lake.

The more determined was Liam, the more worried Jacob became.

But he knew clearly that he couldn’t persuade him.

The only way to have Liam leave the lake was to find the necklace.

Jacob paused and helped him.

Another series of bubbles came from Liam’s mouth, and Liam suddenly fell down on to the bed of the lake.

“Liam!”

Jacob was shocked and swam to him crazily.
