Chapter 13 Live a Better Life
“What did you say, Eva? Say one more timel

Leonard pulled his arm away from Lily and immediately rushed over to me. Buddy started to growl again, and the officer quickly pulled it away.
I wiped my eyes and looked at him coldly, “I said I want a divorce. Are you dead? You’re acting this way even in the police station. Since the two of us don’t have much feelings for each other anymore, let’s just separate in prace.
“We’ll get a divorce, and I’ll take Buddy with me. I’ll make space for your mistress.”
When my tears finally rolled down my cheeks, I didn’t know if it was all an act, or if I really felt that much pain in my heart. Something was flashing in his eyes, and be instantly became even more agitated.
“You want to get a divorce over a dog? Am I less than a dog to you? I’m going to deal with the dog right now, and no one is going to stop me
I held Buddy tightly while Lily pulled him back. However, the excitement in Lily’s eyes was apparent. “It’s okay, Leo There’s no need to make so much fuss over a dog.”
When she said that, her eyes were looking right at me with pleasure.
Upon seeing this, Agatha spat. “How shameless. Can’t you still understand? Is Eva really asking for a divorce because of a dog?”
There were a lot of people at the police station to take care of their own business, and those who were watching also started to whisper among th
themselves.
“The mistress is already scolding the wife, but the husband is protecting the mistress? They should just get a divorce,
“He looks so tough, but he’s venting it out on a dog? I can tell that he has a bad temper. Maybe he’s a domestic abuser?”
“Hey, lady. If it really doesn’t work, just fil
a divorce. Iremember there’s no waiting period for domestic abuse cases.
When the officers saw that the people there were going to form a mob, they quickly kept the situation under control and invited us to the office.
I understood that this was a faminal matter. While Leonard might be morally bankrupt, they wouldn’t really do anything to him.
Then I saw a young officer walk over with a nervous expression and whisper into the ears of the other officers. The way they looked at Leonard also changed He was one of the strongest candidate to inherit the Harmon household. They wouldn’t want to cross him if at all possible.
In the and, all the officers did was to simply verbally criticize him and it was quickly wept under the carpet
Before left, the woman offices locked at me hesitantly. “It’s not the police’s place to act on family affairs. If you need it. You can think about suing them.”
She didn’t say much, but I was still very chandul. That was already the greatest amount of help she could offer within her powers
I nodded to her and left the police station with Agatha and Buddy on a leath. At the entrance of the station, Lily held onto Leonard with deep concern. “Leo, your wound is opening again. It’s bleeding”
I looked at the spots of blood on his bandage around his arm. He was bleeding less than I was yesterday, so what was there to be worried about? I raised my eyes before leaving ignoring them. “Eval Stop right there!” Leonard’s order rang in the air, but I didn’t even stop, Buddy wanted to turn around, but I knocked its head gently
“Why are you batening to something that’s more feral than a beast? So it can bite you?”
Buddy whined again and rubbed its head against my leg. Trubbed its head and continued to walk forward I wouldn’t turn my head back for the scumbag again. At least, nor now
Leonard wanted to chase after me, but Buddy was prepared for a light.
However, Lily’s voice rang out again. “Les, I think my allergy is back again. I’m feeling so itchy.”
Agatha looked at me ledly and 1 simply shook my head, hailing for a cab
Het allergy didn’t trigger despite spending so much time in the police station, but it was triggered as soon as they came out. Her skin acted just like Lily herself. It was so considerate. When we were home, Boddy wanted to come home with me. However, I pushed it away
Agatha looked at me hesitantly and said, “Eva, my son is staying permanently in Manovia. He wants me to move over with him.”
theld the leash that I wanted to give to Agatha tightly.
“Ms. Agatha, 1..” I didn’t know what to say. She had already helped me a lot by simply being a neighbor.
*know you have a strong bond with Buddy since you raised it. With your condition, you need a companion by your side right now as well. But your husband might really kill it one of these days. If you’re willing to, you can let it come with me.”
I frome on the spot. I wasn’t sure what to say, I knew she didn’t have to do this. She simply didn’t want to see innocent lives being hurt.
However, Agatha wasn’t in a rush. She simply waited for me to make a decision. The clock continued to tick. When I heard Boddy’s whining, I made the decision.
“If you can, can you take it with you? I’ll pay for ”
“You’re willing t=“”
I wiped the tears welling in my eyes and nodded. “I am.”
It was better for Buddy to be with Agatha than me. Buddy came home with me that day, and I prepared its meal. I was never good at cooling. Other than Buddy, no one was
no one was willing to eat it.
1 hugged it as i lay on the sofa, my tears solled down its fur. “Buddy, so many people have never even set foot outside of our country. You’re so lucky. I’m giving you all my huck, so live a good
your mommy will have no more weakness. I will live a better da. I will also live a little longer.”
