Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 245 Demand

"I agree to that divorce."

My voice was devoid of any emotions when I gave my response. However, I saw Leonard clenching his fists momentarily.

We were stuck with each other for far too long in this marriage. Not to mention, we even dragged an innocent baby's life into our drama, It was high time for me to let go of Leonard. It didn't matter if Leonard's mind cleared up later on. Truth be told, divorce was the best option for us.

I sank down on a seat tiredly. My stamina was almost depleted at this point. It was true that the drugs could keep my illness at bay. But in return, it was easier for me to grow tired.

I knew it. I couldn't possibly hope to have a healthy body and a long lifespan in this lifetime.

Amelia sat up straight. Her lips curled into a smug smile.

She thought she won this battle.

I didn't look at her. Instead, I focused on Leonard.

"Do you still want to go for the lawyer I had hired to draft the divorce agreement? Or would you like to hire another lawyer for that?"

"The lawyer you had hired?" Leonard looked at me in confusion.

I didn't explain anything to him. Instead, I just said that Mr. Harmon Senior could hire any. lawyer he wanted.

Suddenly, Amelia said, "Eva still has shares, doesn't she? Now that she's getting divorced, shouldn't she let go of the shares? Besides, the client companies are demanding compensation She began tugging at Leonard's sleeve again.

Leonard found it difficult to bring up the shares, but he simply couldn't say no to Amelia.

"Eva, your shares-

"I'll return them to Mr. Harmon Senior. He can distribute them however he likes."

Those shares were never mine to begin with. I was starting to feel speechless. Did Amelia seriously think those shares would be hers in the future?

"Now that everything is settled, I'm going to leave now."

I got up to my feet and began walking toward the front door while trying to withstand the wave of dizziness attacking me.

"What about your patents?" Amelia sounded quite anxious. "Leo, Mr. Harmon Senior, Eva's patents are needed in a few projects. We can't let her take them away."

"Those patents are listed under her name. I told you before that I'd never take advantage of her." This time, Leonard spoke up before Amelia could whine to him coquettishly.

I supposed I had to thank Leonard for remembering that the patents were mine. If not, I'd definitely waste more time arguing with him.

Obviously, Amelia wasn't happy at all. She bit her bottom lip in response.

"Leo, Eva had obtained the patents from the designs she made during her time in the company. By right, they should belong to the company. It's not that I'm planning to take advantage of her-it's just that we need to think about the company's rights too, you know?" "I never knew you were this shameless, Amelia."

Seriously, I completely underestimated Amelia. Not only was she ambitious, but she also wanted many things in life.

Her design skills were average, yet she dreamed of stealing my patents!

"Harmon Group can choose to buy my patents, in this case. The money won't be counted as our joint assets. After all, we're about to get divorced. Of course, you can always choose to not use my patents. You can come up with your designs instead."

I turned to look at Amelia after that. "You're my ex-classmate, Amelia. Since you're such a talented designer with excellent grades, coming up with brand-new designs won't be a problem for you, right?"

Since Amelia wanted to take on my identity this badly, she should pretend to be as capable as me, then.

"Although we graduated from the same university, you chose to further your studies overseas for å few more years. That means you're a lot more capable than me, right?"

Clearly, Amelia didn't know what to say after hearing my words. Sometime later, she still remained quiet.

If she truly were capable, Harmon Group wouldn't have been stuck in this situation from the

start.

"Eva, although you and Leonard will be divorced in the future, our bond will still exist. The patents will remain under your name. The company will pay you according to the percentage agreed. You can choose whether you want your payment to come in bonuses or a lump sum for the copyright."

Clearly, Mr. Harmon Senior was a lot smarter compared to Leonard and Amelia. If I were to take my patents with me, Harmon Group would be done for. Chop 245 Demand

"Alright, Mr. Harmon Senior. I'll deal with the resignation process tomorrow. Then, I'll deal with the patents' issues with the relevant departments."

I turned to leave while maintaining a poker face The moment I closed the door behind me, I tripped over my feet and collapsed to the ground.
