Chapter 418<\/p>\n
Rayburn was already irritated at the idea of visiting the Hawkins family.<\/p>\n
He erupted when Rita accused Cherise of causing trouble. \u201cCherise is fine. If anyone\u2019s stirring up trouble, it\u2019s you.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t think I don\u2019t know about the shady things the Hawkins family has done. If it weren\u2019t for your son Toby begging me time and again, you wouldn\u2019t even be part of the Muller family anymore.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou should be grateful you have such a good son. He gave you his daughter, hoping you\u2019d realize you still have family. hoping Yulia could soften your heart\u2013not for you to use her as a bargaining chip.<\/p>\n
You act so high and mighty, but only you know if it\u2019s real or fake<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know how much you meddled in our marriage back then, but if I ever find out Megan\u2019s struggles were because of you, I\u2019ll never forgive you or the Hawkins family.<\/p>\n
With that, Rayburn tossed what he was holding at her before she could respond and turned to head back upstairs. As Rayburn walked away, he called down to the servant on the first floor. Tell her to leave Dream Residence\u201d<\/p>\n
The servant, clearly aware of the tension between them, felt awkward since this was the first time he\u2019d seen such an argument, and hesitantly asked, \u201cMrs. Muller, are you\u2026?\u201d<\/p>\n
Rita glanced briefly upstairs, snorted coldly, and, clutching the envelope Rayburn had shoved into her hands, turned and<\/p>\n
left.<\/p>\n
Outside, the driver waiting at the Hawkins residence entrance had been there for quite a while. When he saw her come out, he immediately straightened in his seat and started the engine.<\/p>\n
Once she got in the car, she gripped the envelope tightly, glanced at it briefly, and said without expression, \u201cTake me to the Hawkins family.\u201d<\/p>\n
After hearing the instructions, the driver stepped on the gas and drove away from the foot of Azure Peak.<\/p>\n
At the Hawkins residence, Garrick had finally fallen asleep.<\/p>\n
Just thirty minutes earlier, he had been writhing in pain, complaining of a searing, bone\u2013deep ache, describing it as if thousands of ants were gnawing at the soles of his feet.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, Yulia performed acupuncture, which helped him fall asleep.<\/p>\n
However, it was likely just a temporary relief.<\/p>\n
Cina sat nearby, sighing constantly and mumbling, \u201cWhy is my fe so miserable? My husband died young, my eldest daughter is in prison, and my youngest daughter ran away.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd now Garrick is like this. Yulia, do you think the Hawkins family is finished?<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat am I supposed to do? My own family would never take me back, and I can\u2019t bear to let them see me like this.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan\u2019t you talk to Rita? She has to find a way to save Garrick and keep the Hawkins family from falling apart.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yulia, growing uncomfortable with her endless self\u2013pity, struggled to find a response.<\/p>\n
Just as she gathered her thoughts and was about to say somethin. Rita walked in from outside.<\/p>\n
Hoth Yulia and Gina lit up at the sight of her. \u201cRital\u201d<\/p>\n

Chapter 418<\/p>\n
Gina exclaimed. \u201cYou\u2019re finally here, Rita! Garrick, he<\/p>\n
.. 94%<\/p>\n
Rita didn\u2019t acknowledge her. Instead, she walked over to the table, placed the tightly gripped envelope on it, and moved to the bed where Garrick lay sleeping.<\/p>\n
At that moment, Garrick stirred awake, saw her, and said, \u201cYou\u2019re here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rita nodded, pulled a stool close to the bed, and sat down. \u201cDoes it still hurt?\u201d she asked.<\/p>\n
Garrick gave a faint nod and replied, \u201cMuch better, almost no pain at all now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rita made a soft \u201cHmm\u201d sound, then looked over at the envelope on the table. \u201cYulia, can you open that and see what\u2019s inside?\u201d<\/p>\n
Yulia glanced at the table, picked up the envelope, and opened it<\/p>\n
Inside was a single sheet of paper, aged and yellowed with time<\/p>\n
Yulia slowly pulled it out.<\/p>\n
As she unfolded it and read, her eyes widened in shock, and she good frozen.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is it?\u201d Gina asked, standing up and moving closer.<\/p>\n
When she saw the title on the paper, her eyes went wide just like Yulia\u2019s. \u201cA divorce application.<\/p>\n
\u201cRayburn and Rita.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the divorce application of Rayburn and Rita.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis paper looks so old. It can\u2019t be real, can it? Or some kind of joke?<\/p>\n
\u201cBut why is Rayburn\u2019s signature already on it?\u201d<\/p>\n
Gina kept talking, not stopping.<\/p>\n
Garrick, still lying in bed, looked at his sister with concern, equally shocked. \u201cRita, what\u2019s this?\u201d<\/p>\n
Rita seemed much calmer than the rest of them.<\/p>\n
She looked up at Yulia, speaking in her usual calm voice. \u201cYulia, what\u2019s the date at the bottom of the signature?\u201d<\/p>\n
Yulia\u2019s hands were shaking as she tried to process what she was seeing<\/p>\n
Her vision blurred, and after taking a deep breath, she finally looked at the bottom of the document. After a brief pause, she answered, \u201cIt\u2019s\u2026 it\u2019s July 7th, Year 14 of Clusia.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rira laughed bitterly. July 7th, Year 14 of Clusia. What a day, July 7th, Year 14 of Clusia.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you all know what day that was?\u201d<\/p>\n
Gina and Yulia shook their heads.<\/p>\n
Kita then turned to Carrick, who was still in bed, \u201cCarrick, what<\/p>\n
bout you? Do you know?\u201d<\/p>\n
Garrick sighed heavily and said, \u201cJuly 7th, Year 14 of Clusia\u2013tha was the day after you and Rayburn got marries<\/p>\n
