Chapter 232
“Go back and review the divorce terms carefully. Let’s discuss this seriously, Cedrick. Don’t follow me anymore.”
Lucille finished speaking and walked towards Aydan and Linda.
Afraid that Lucille might be at a disadvantage, they hurried over, one on each side, embracing her, and headed in the opposite direction from Cedrick.
The next day, they were to devote themselves fully to the performance, so Aydan and the others took advantage of the relaxed evening to stroll through the streets and alleys of Canal Town.
Linda really wanted to buy a mask, so the four of them searched and compared in various small shops.
Lucille chose a Queen of Hearts, Aydan picked a Night Knight.
When all four had chosen and were wearing masks for a selfie outside the shop, Lucille suddenly noticed two figures in Linda’s raised phone screen.
Right next door, at the doll shop, the two had entered.
Lucille’s smile froze in Linda’s phone, but from the neighboring shop entrance came a familiar female voice, “Cedrick, I don’t like these dolls; they’re not as pretty and exquisite as the ones you gave me.”
Of course, they weren’t as exquisite; Cedrick had collected limited–edition handmade dolls everywhere, each worth a fortune.
Aydan also heard the voice; wearing his mask, his eyes darkened, “Let’s go.”
Ready to leave this place far behind.
But they couldn’t avoid it.
Cedrick and Maricela quickly came out of the doll shop and bumped right into the four of them.
All four were wearing masks, but Cedrick still recognized Lucille at a glance.
Lucille just found it ridiculous; so, he had brought Maricela on this trip. How nice, the two had toured the islands and Magraica. What was Cedrick doing putting on that act at the gondola pier last night?
“Excuse me.”
Aydan said in a lowered voice.
The roads in Canal Town were narrow to begin with, and with many tourists, Cedrick stood unmoving in the middle, blocking everyone’s way.

Cedrick still didn’t move, just looking at Lucille.
Maricela beside him looked at Cedrick, then at the people opposite, and suddenly laughed, “Wow, it’s Lucille!
I didn’t recognize you!
I only recognized you by your limp.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Aydan slapped her.

“Aah-” Maricela shrieked, throwing herself into Cedrick’s arms. A palm print rapidly bloomed across her cheek. “How dare you hit someone?
Hitting a woman?
Shameless!”
Cedrick shielded Maricela, glaring at Aydan with hostility. “Are you a rabid dog?”
“Mr. Maynard.”
Aydan gave a cold laugh. “Whether I’m crazy or not doesn’t matter. What matters is, aren’t you and Lucille still legal- ly married?
What’s the meaning of this scene?
Joining forces with this filthy thing to bully your own wife?”
“You’re the filthy thing!”
Maricela shrilled from behind Cedrick’s back.
Aydan fixed her with an icy stare. “You think hiding behind this scumbag will save you?
Filthy people–I hit every single one I see, man or woman!”
Cedrick glowered at Aydan. “Seems we’re settling this with fists today?”
“You think I won’t hit you?”
Aydan stepped forward, placing all three women behind him. “And you think you’re clean?
For dirty mouths, I slap their mouth. But a man like you, reeking like he crawled out of a cesspit? I’ll beat you until you can’t stand!”
Hearing this, Maricela finally understood why Aydan had slapped her–it was because she’d called Lucille a cripple…
Cedrick, however, turned his dark gaze to Lucille standing behind Aydan. “Lucille. Are you sure you want to stand with someone who insults your husband?”
Lucille looked at him, still shielding Maricela, and couldn’t help but laugh. “Insult?
