Chapter 710 Their Marital Harmony, His Bonus Doubles
Mary couldn't help but sigh before answering the phone.
Matthew's deep, magnetic voice came through, devoid of any discernible emotion. "Mary, it's been two hours. Where are you?"
Mary glanced toward the hospital room and said, "Something came up here unexpectedly. I can't make it right now. Let's go to court tomorrow."
"Wishful thinking." Matthew scoffed lightly. "I agreed to this, but you're the one who didn't show up. Not everyone has time to wait for you."
Mary closed her eyes briefly, knowing this would be the outcome.
After a moment, she asked, "What about the court hearing?"
Matthew let out a cold laugh. "Even if there's a court hearing, I won't attend. Mary, I don't want a divorce. My stance has always been firm."
Mary had nothing left to say.
Such a good opportunity, yet so many things went wrong.
Could it be that God didn't want them to divorce?
But what was the point of staying together?
Mary couldn't figure it out, so she decided not to dwell on it. "I understand."
Then she hung up the phone.
She turned to contact the nurse.
Matthew stared at the disconnected call, his long brows furrowing. He was still standing outside the courthouse.
The courthouse hadn't closed yet.
If he told her to come now, they could still finalize the divorce, but why should he say that?
His stance had always been firm—he didn't want a divorce!
The only reason he agreed was that he couldn't bear to see her eyes so dim and lifeless. Her eyes used to be bright and sparkling.
But now, he had waited for her all day, and she never showed up!
He gave her a chance, and she didn't take it!
So, it wasn't his fault.
Matthew looked at Michael and said calmly, "Find out what happened to her today."
"Yes, sir." Michael quickly replied.
The car left the courthouse, and Matthew sat in the backseat, closing his eyes to rest.
When he returned to the hospital, he received the information Michael had gathered.
Looking at the details, his thin lips couldn't help but curl into a smile.
It seemed God really didn't want them to divorce.
They were just one block away, and then that incident happened.
So, they were meant to be together!
Matthew's mood improved significantly, and he even gave Michael a bonus.
Michael finally understood—if their marriage was harmonious, his bonus would double.
From now on, he would pray every day for their reconciliation, so he could become wealthy and reach the pinnacle of his life!
Mary arranged for the nurse and returned to the hospital room, where she found Nora already asleep.
However, Nora's sleep was restless, her brows furrowed, and her whole body tense.
Mary sat by the bedside, frowning. What kind of family would make a disabled child earn money?
"Don't hit me, I'll make money."
Suddenly, Nora cried out from the bed, then opened her eyes, filled with terror and panic.
Mary quickly said, "Nora, it's okay. No one is hitting you. You're in the hospital. You're safe."
Nora looked at her in fear, seemingly realizing her current situation, and tears began to fall.
"Mary, I need to go home. I have to go home. If I don't, my parents will kill me."
