Chapter 779 She Must Endure
Finally, Dora left with the signed divorce agreement, in which it explicitly stated that she could get a suburban villa and three million dollars in cash.
She didn't want the two apartments, even though they were in better locations than the villa she wanted. She just felt she should live in a villa, not a high-rise.
She had lived in a villa since she was born, so even now, after the divorce, she wanted to stay strong.
As for the three million dollars, it was the result of her arguing with Blake. He was really speechless and didn't want to waste time with her, so he agreed to give an extra million dollars.
Of course, the result was not good for Dora. Before coming, she thought she could get a hundred million dollars from Blake, or at least twenty million dollars.
But now, she only got one-tenth of that, which was quite a difference.
And Dora had her own concerns.
Just as Blake said, she had to consider Lucia. All she had done couldn't be exposed at this moment, or it would be a fatal blow to Lucia.
So, she had to endure.
On the other hand, Evelyn also learned about the result of their negotiation.
Although she felt that Dora shouldn't get any money, Evelyn also knew that Blake didn't want to insist on it, so she didn't say much.
Anyway, the three million dollars wouldn't last long in Dora's hands. Given her spending habits over the years, it would be spent quickly, and her life wouldn't be easy then.
The matter of Blake and Dora's divorce came to an end. Although it caused some stir when it was exposed, most people thought Blake was ruthless because he despised Dora after the Roberts family went bankrupt.
But these words wouldn't have any impact on Blake.
On Monday, Evelyn arrived at the hospital early. Today was the day for Dermot's surgery. Although she said she wasn't nervous, she was still a bit anxious inside.
Perhaps it was because Dermot was someone she was familiar with, and it was different from dealing with strangers.
However, she quickly adjusted her emotions.
In the anesthesia room, Evelyn came to check on his anesthesia situation.
At this time, the anesthesiologist was still preparing, and Dermot was still awake. Upon seeing her, he smiled a bit and said, "Dr. Kyte, I'm in your hands today."
"Mr. Doyle, rest assured, I will do my best," Evelyn said.
"Okay," Dermot replied. Perhaps because he was about to undergo surgery, he was in low spirits and didn't say much.
Upon seeing him like this, Evelyn felt a bit upset. "Didn't you inform your Grandpa?"
"His health isn't good either. Telling him would only make him worry.
"If something really happens to me," Dermot looked at her and smiled lightly, "please visit my Grandpa often. He seems to like you a lot."
Last time he went back, Henry even mentioned Evelyn, hoping Dermot and Evelyn would get married.
"Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to you," Evelyn said with determination, ready for the surgery.
Soon, the anesthesiologist was ready and administered the anesthesia to Dermot, who quickly fell asleep.
He was wheeled into the operating room, and the surgery officially began.
Margaret arrived an hour after the surgery started. She didn't come early, knowing she couldn't stop Dermot and that coming early wouldn't mean the surgery was over.
She thought she would be the only one waiting for Dermot's surgery today, but she didn't expect Craig to be there too.
Margaret wasn't very familiar with Craig, only knowing from Dermot that they were friends. Given Craig's current status, she didn't think much of him.
