Chapter 58

Half-asleep, Autumn vaguely heard her phone ringing.

Without even glancing at it, she turned over and went right back to sleep.

The call eventually disconnected on its own.

She ran a fever on and off for two days, but by the third day, it finally broke.

Soon, it was time for her to be discharged.

When she arrived home, Zoe hurried out to greet her, taking the things from her hands before setting out a pair of slippers.

With an apologetic look, Zoe said, “Ma’am, I’m so sorry. I wanted to bring you meals, but Madam Grace wouldn’t let me.

“She said you needed time to reflect on what you’d done wrong.

Autumn gave a faint smirk, her lips curling into a sharp smile.

Of course, Grace was still as shameless as ever.

She just couldn’t stand seeing Autumn live too comfortably.

Every now and then, she’d come up with ways to make her life harder.

Autumn had mentioned it to Julian before.

At first, he would still try to comfort her, saying, “She’s getting old, and it’s not like we live with her. Just ignore

it.”

But as time went on, he grew increasingly impatient, brushing her off with, “You’re making a big deal out of nothing. I’ve got enough on my plate every day. Don’t drag me into your issues with my mom.”

Now, none of it mattered anymore.

Whatever Grace did had nothing to do with her because the countdown had begun-just three days left.

She would be pulling her suitcase out of this house for good.

The thought alone lifted her spirits.

She hugged Zoe and said with a warm smile, “I’m fine now, really. Don’t worry about it.”

Tomorrow, she would report to Vanguard.

By Wednesday, she’d be leaving with her luggage.

She was finally escaping this miserable life.

Zoe picked up a parcel from the coffee table and handed it to her.

“Ma’am, this came by same-day courier from Mr. Carter. It’s addressed to you- looks like documents.”

It was a flat envelope, the kind usually used for legal paperwork.

The fact that Julian had to use a courier just to get documents to her-when they lived in the same house-said

it all.

He hadn’t been home in ages.

Autumn tore it open and pulled out the letter.

The words “legal notice” were written across the top, and a mocking smile tugged at her lips.

So Julian was really going through with it.

He was actually suing her.

Fine.

If he wanted to play hardball, then he better be ready for her to do the same.

Zoe happened to catch sight of the words “Legal Notice” on the envelope.

Her eyes widened in shock, but when she glanced at Autumn’s expression, she noticed how calm she looked.

It was as if she’d already known Julian would send over a legal notice.

Zoe couldn’t wrap her head around it-why couldn’t he talk things out properly?

Why deliver a legal letter while his wife was still recovering in the hospital?
