Chapter 217
"Kitty, why did you agree with Graham’s stupid idea? You know I can find a much better lawyer, right?"
"We both know that’s not possible," Kate said. "He is the best in his field. You said it yourself before."
"Tsk, I didn’t search far and wide enough. Let me ask Michael and some colleagues to find me the best. I will not allow you to be humiliated in the court!" Henry insisted. "I can’t do this, Kate. I get angry when I think everyone will look at you with pitiful eyes. You’re my woman and deserve to be praised and hailed, not pitied!"
"Calm down..." Kate continued tapping Henry’s chest to soothe him. "This is my choice, Henry. I did this to annul the prenup and get all the assets I’ve worked hard for."
Henry clenched his fist. He wasn’t angry at Kate, but at her decision and why they had to go through this, "Kitty, can’t you just let go of those assets? I can give you ten—no, a hundred times the amount of assets you have to share with that deadbeat bastard," Henry persuaded. "For that small apartment, you have to give to him, I will purchase a mansion under your name, and for a car you have to give, then I will buy you a yacht to match that. It’s a great offer, right?"
"Henry, this is not about the money. This is about my pride," Kate said.
"And this is about my pride as well!" Henry was frustrated because they had to argue about this. "I can’t let you look pitiful and poor in front of others. It’s my pride as a man to protect my woman. You’re supposed to have everything in life!"
Kate stared at Henry, who got agitated by this argument between them.
She found him quite funny because he made such a big fuss about his pride as a man, even though Kate never asked for his money.
