After everyone had left, Lachlan calmly got into the car. When Miranda got in, she looked at him with a hint of confusion and asked, "What's going on? Why did they think you were beaten up?"
Lachlan remained silent and shook his head.
The goddess CEO's face showed a hint of displeasure. "Lachlan! You think you're so great now that you won't even talk to me?"
Lachlan's face turned bitter and then suddenly flushed an unhealthy red.
Pfft!
He couldn't hold it back any longer and vomited blood.
His strength was that of a mid-level Uppecia warrior. In addition to his powerful true energy, his physical body was also incredibly strong. Even without inner energy or true energy, he could easily defeat Dark Force masters.
However, when he attacked just now, it inevitably aggravated the injuries inside his body!
Originally he wanted to suppress it and not show it in front of anyone but couldn't hold back anymore when he felt something sweet in his throat!
Miranda who had been angry before was suddenly shocked when she saw this scene. Her eyes showed thick fear and concern.
"Lachlan!"
"Are you okay? Do we need to go to the hospital? I'll drive!"
She even started speaking gibberish as she panicked after seeing Lachlan spit out blood.
Looking at her panicking appearance made Lachlan feel complex emotions flash through his starry eyes for a moment.
The next second he wiped away the blood from his mouth with some tissues before shaking off Miranda's concerns by saying, "It's okay; spitting out this blood is good enough! We don't need to go to the hospital; don't forget I'm also a doctor."
Miranda looked at him anxiously again, "What happened exactly? Were you really hurt by someone?"
Lachlan hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Yes, I met someone whose strength far surpassed mine! This time... I don't know if I can make it through safely..."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was self-deprecating laughter from him followed by saying, "Don't worry about all that though; let's go get our divorce papers filed."
Slap!
Upon hearing this statement, Miranda slapped Lachlan across the face with anger written all over hers, "Lachlan! You bastard! What do you mean?! Is this why you suddenly wanted to divorce me today?"
"What do you take me for?"
"Heh... you're so noble aren't ya?! Are you worried about dragging me down?"
"I don't need you to think for me! I'm not leaving this marriage for now!!"
Lachlan touched his numb cheek and let out a bitter smile. Looking at the goddess CEO, who was teary-eyed and full of resentment, he felt his heart skip a beat. They say that couples are like birds in the same forest, but when disaster strikes they each fly their own way. However, Miranda didn't want to leave him now? Honey... was this what you meant by using him up already?
He moved his lips, wanting to say something to Miranda and ask her why she wanted to split up right after their wedding. But as the words were about to come out of his mouth, he swallowed them back down again. What was the point of asking so many questions now? Perhaps in seven days' time he would be dead anyway. Why add more burdens?
