A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 885 She Is the Ray of Light for Others Nancy had dropped the hot cocoa in her hand.

Bianca turned around to see the mess on the floor, and Nancy looked at her in panic.

"I-I'm sorry! My hand hurts too much...!" Upon hearing this, Bianca looked at Nancy's hand. When she saw her swollen fingers and the scratches on the back of Nancy's hand, she couldn't help but wonder how cruel that man must be! How could he treat his own wife worse than an animal?! Bianca always despised such behavior, and seeing Nancy's injuries and the old scars on her arm from yesterday softened her heart a bit.

"Does he... often hit you?" In Bianca's world, domestic violence by men was as unforgivable as infidelity. Once it

started, it would surely happen again from time to time.

So, in her opinion, there was no need to endure such a man.

Nancy didn't answer Bianca's question. But like yesterday, she cried and covered her face when Bianca asked the crucial question.

Bianca fell silent. Listening to Nancy's despairing cries, she recalled her time with Malcolm. That was the first time she truly tasted the bitterness of despair.

Despite witnessing many people in despair in their marriages, she had never truly empathized until then. So, every time she faced it, she remained unusually calm.

But seeing Nancy like this now, she... knew what that despair felt like. I She handed a tissue to Nancy.

Nancy took it. "T-thank you..." "You want to divorce him, don't you?"

Nancy nodded.

Bianca was relieved that this woman, in her misfortune, wanted to escape rather than settle for a mediocre existence.

"Have you found a lawyer?" "I have, but they want a lot of money, and I... I don't have that much!" Nancy's tone was filled with even more despair when this topic was mentioned.

Bianca was silent.

Money? She had witnessed similar situations in which -couples who appeared deeply in love at the start ended up becoming hysterical about money when it came to divorce.

The fire in the fireplace was still burning brightly, and outside, snow continued to fall.

After tonight, it would be even harder to go out.

Nancy continued crying until it was almost dark. Then, she wiped away her tears and

stood up.

"Thank you for letting me stay here." "I should go back!" Back to that hellhole.

Bianca asked, "Who else is in that house?" "It's just me and him." That was the most despairing part. When violence struck, there was hardly anyone to turn to. And in the time Nancy had been living with that man, she couldn't remember how many times scenes like today had happened. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

It was almost like a daily routine.

He would get drunk and hit her. He would gamble, lose, and then hit her. He would be in a bad mood and hit her.

Even though he could be nice when he was in a good mood, she didn't care for that kindness anymore.

As Nancy turned around, Bianca's voice from behind her was resolute. "I'll help you with this lawsuit!" At that moment, the old Bianca seemed to return. She was full of righteousness and pride! Nancy froze at Bianca's words. She turned back, and tears filled her eyes as she looked at Bianca.

Bianca set down her coffee and said, "It's free of charge." Nancy was speechless.

Free of charge?! Nancy appeared to think that she had misunderstood something. Although she felta glimmer of hope, it was quickly overshadowed by doubt.

Having experienced too much despair, she found it hard to believe that what she saw was a ray of hope when Bianca offered it to her.

Seeing Nancy silent, Bianca raised an

eyebrow. "You don't want it?" And at that moment, Nancy snapped out of it! She quickly nodded. "Yes, I do!" Hastily, she approached Bianca and crouched down in front of her. But as she crouched, the wounds on her legs were torn open, causing her face to pale from the pain.

Bianca grabbed her wrist but exerted only a gentle force because she knew Nancy's wrist was injured.

Through tears, Nancy said, "I know you just moved here two months ago." Bianca listened silently.

"He's the bully in this village. Everyone avoids him. If he finds out you're helping me with the lawsuit, he won't let it go!" Over the years, Nancy had received many helpless looks from others because of this man. Even though some wanted to help her, they were too afraid of the thug to lend a hand.

When Bianca said she was willing to help her with this lawsuit, Nancy was overjoyed. But looking at Bianca's frail appearance, she realized... Bianca was also just a weak woman Bianca said, "I'll handle that. Right now, think about what you want from this marriage." Bianca had asked this question countless times before, but never with such a compassionate tone. In the past, she was only focused on getting the job done.

Now, she approached it with the intention of helping this woman.

"I have nothing at home. I don't want anything as long as I can get rid of him!" Nancy said -urgently.

In this marriage, she... didn't want anything.

She just wanted to get rid of this man, no matter what.

Bianca nodded. "Alright." She would grant Nancy's wish.

Gratefully, Nancy looked at Bianca. Until now, she finally believed that she had found real hope, and Bianca would indeed help her with this lawsuit.

Thinking about the exorbitant fees the lawyer had demanded earlier had once plunged her into despair. She never imagined that that man would discover this matter.

She thought she would be tied to him for life, but now she didn't have to worry anymore.

"Thank you...! Really, thank you!" Nancy cried gratefully.

Bianca had been lost since she left Simeria, and seeing Nancy's tears seemed to give her a “glimmer of hope at this moment.

In truth, Bianca was also a desperate person! She was lost and directionless, not knowing what to do with herself all day.

But now, Bianca seemed to have found her own value and meaning of existence.

What did Simeria matter? What did those

people matter? She was still Bianca Sanders, and those people meant nothing in her life.

Why should she run because of them? Why should she hide because of them? Starting now, the once powerful, unbeatable lawyer in Verde City would rise again. She would become the one that made all those who betrayed their marriages tremble! Just as Natalie arrived in Simeria, she received a call from Bianca, saying she... wouldn't hide anymore! “Natalie asked, "What do you mean?" Obviously, Natalie didn't understand Bianca's meaning, especially since she knew Zane and Malcolm were somewhere in Weiss Town.

Natalie thought she would leave first, and Bianca would follow right after.

But now, what was this?
