Elizabeth was very stubborn. She refused to go to the hospital no matter what he said. Armand did not
dare to force her to go to the hospital because he was afraid that this would stimulate her emotions.
Hence, they could only stay at home.
He took advantage of Elizabeth’s sleep to call the doctor to the house and gave her a check.
After listening to Armand’s account, the doctor judged that it might be a precursor of Alzheimer’s
disease, “This is still a preliminary judgement. You’ll still need to go to the hospital for a better
diagnosis. Listening to your description, the condition seemed to be a bit serious. I suggest you go to
the hospital as soon as possible.”
Armand said, “I know.”
Elizabeth had woken. She heard Armand said that he didn’t feel well and hoped she could accompany
him to the hospital. When she heard that he said he didn’t feel well, she immediately agreed to go to
the hospital with him.
After the examination, Elizabeth was diagnosed to have Alzheimer’s disease, which is commonly
known as dementia.
“Elderly with this disease will have symptoms of memory loss and confusion. There will be situations
like emotional anxiety, agitation, hallucinations and delusions. This disease can only be controlled with
some drugs, and there is no way to cure it completely. Such a situation requires more company and
talking to her. Don’t let her have a sense of loneliness.” The doctor said.
Armand nodded, “I know these.”
The doctor looked at the medical records and said, “It is good if you know. Generally, the old lady has
this disease is mostly caused by mental stimulation. Of course, this disease is most probably caused
by old age. When I listened to your narrative, you mentioned that she was good before, and these
symptoms only appeared recently. To get to this extent in a short time, her situation may be caused by
some mental stimulation. If so, you must take care of her carefully. Please take care of her mental
health.”
Armand said, “I got it.”
The doctor prescribed medicine, and Bertha went to pick it up while he pushed Elizabeth, “You’re not
sick, are you?” Elizabeth asked.
Armand looked at her and said, “No, I’m fine.”
“It’s good that you’re fine.” Elizabeth looked relieved.
Armand watched the change in her expression. He was dreary and he whispered, “Let’s go home.”
“Okay.” Elizabeth smiled.
When they arrived home, Elizabeth told Bertha, “Armand love to eat pork ribs, so you cooked ribs
tonight.”
Bertha looked at Armand. He nodded at her, and she said towards Elizabeth, “Okay.”
Due to Elizabeth’s condition, Armand had to spend time at home with her. However, the person in the
case he took wanted to see him.
The person asked him to meet outside. Armand intended to go and return quickly, so he asked Bertha
to watch her, “Don’t go out if there’s nothing important.”
“Okay,” Bertha replied.
They met in a cafe. When Armand arrived at the cafe, the other party was already there. He walked
towards the table and sat opposite her.
“What would you like to drink?” She asked.
Armand said a glass of plain water would be fine.
The person placed an envelope in front of him.
Armand picked it up, and he probably knew what was inside. He said, “You found the evidence so
soon?”
“Originally, he did not know that I knew that he cheated on me, so he didn’t guard on me. It’s not
difficult to get the evidence too. This is the hotel where he and that mistress checked in a room. I
managed to get the record of it.” Although she was a pregnant woman, and the time of her marriage
was not very long, she looked very calm.
From the beginning to the end, she did not show any aggressive behaviour.
Armand had been a lawyer for quite some time and he met all kinds of clients.
However, this woman was married for a short time and pregnant. It was really rare to see a person so
calm when she knew her husband cheated on her. She did not show any sad or hysterical expressions.
Armand looked at the record. The husband had been for a total of a dozen times. It seemed that he
went to the same hotel every time. Inside the envelope, there was a flash drive.
“What’s inside this?” Armand asked.
The client answered, “Only with the hotel room records, it can’t be said to be a piece of solid evidence.
When the time comes, he will certainly argue that they were just discussing things in the room. By that
time, we can’t do anything about it if he said so. Hence, this is of course a piece of solid evidence.”
Armand raised his eyelids and looked at her.
She laughed, “Do you think I’m too eager to destroy him?”
“No.” Armand told the truth, “I’m surprised that you are so calm.”
She found her husband cheating, but she did not cry. Instead, she pretended not to know anything and
secretly hired a lawyer to seize his property.
“A cheating man is like rancid rice. Forcing myself to eat it will only disgust me and harm my body. Why
now I just throw it away? And let him suffer the pain of losing everything. The person who did the wrong
thing will have to pay the price. The flash drive that I gave you is a copy. I still have another copy with
me. I not only want him to lose everything but also want him to live with shame.” She said these words
with a bit of hate on her face.
So, it was not that she didn’t hate him, she was just strong enough to know what was best for her
current situation.
“Do you think that I am too cruel?” She looked at Armand.
“No, I admire your calmness,” Armand said indifferently.
“I will tell him everything today. I want to solve this matter as soon as possible, so I need you to help
me.” She stated her demands.
Armand took out the proposed divorce agreement from his briefcase, “The agreement is written
according to your request, and you can take a look.”
The woman took it over, read it and was very satisfied. She put it into her bag and said, “Then please
help me to prepare a lawsuit as soon as possible. I want him to divorce without any possession, but he
will refuse. We will fight a lawsuit, so I will still need your help.”
Armand said, “Leave it to me.”
The woman left, and Armand did not continue to sit. He left the cafe after her. Just when he was about
to start the car, his phone in his pocket rang.
He took out his phone and it showed a message from Theresa. When he saw this, his heart tightened
suddenly.
