?Chapter 1148:


    She purchased some food from a shop, then watched a broadcast of a lecture online while eating.


    It was after nine o’clock now. Huey usually returned home at this time, and this day was no different. He called Bailee. As soon as Bailee picked up, Huey said angrily, “Bailee, the Baker family’s home is going to be mine, and you’ll be the head of the household. Don’t you know that? How could you be forced to leave like that?”


    Realizing Huey was driving, Bailee said, “I didn’t leave because I was forced.”


    “You left willingly then?” Huey said through clenched teeth. “I can’t figure out what’s going through your head. Pick up some groceriester, and we can have dinner together.”


    Bailee paused for a moment and then responded, “Eileen and everyone else are asleep. Don’te over tonight. We can talk tomorrow.”


    “Quit the nonsense. You’re not at Eileen’s ce, are you? Are you at the Eternal Vi?” Huey quickly saw through Bailee.


    Eternal Vi had been their previous residence, and they hadn’t been there since moving back to the Baker family’s home. That was precisely where Bailee was now.


    However, Bailee denied it, saying, “No. If you don’t believe me, feel free to check.”


    After saying this, she hung up the call and tossed her phone onto the table. She then stood up, turned off the lights, and went into the bedroom.


    She hadn’t parked her car in the usual parking lot. Instead, she had hidden it in a secluded spot, aware that Huey mighte looking for her.


    Huey, unable to find Bailee’s car and seeing the lights off, didn’t go inside. However, he hadn’t anticipated that Huey would call Eileen directly.

    Eileen had already retired for the night and was startled by Huey’s call.


    “What? She left?”


    “She left a divorce agreement and disappeared.” Huey was drinking near his car. “She’s not at the Eternal or with you. Could you check if she’s staying at a hotel?”


    “No,” Eileen replied firmly.


    Huey was on the verge of tears, his voice trembling as he said, “From the way you’re talking, you must have some idea of where she’s hiding.”


    “I honestly don’t know, but she has clearly gone into hiding for a reason. Plus, she’s avoiding you, not me. I’ll give her a callter, and once I know she’s alright, I’ll let you know.” Eileen hung up and immediately dialed Bailee’s number.


    Bailee answered almost instantly, already guessing the reason. “Did Huey call you?”


    After all, Eileen wouldn’t usually call her at such ate hour unless something was up.


    “He’s having trouble finding you,” Eileen spoke quietly, her phone screen casting a faint glow in the dim room. ncing at the peacefully sleeping Gabri, she quietly stepped out of the bedroom. “You just dropped the divorce papers and vanished?”


    Bailee paused for a few seconds before answering. “I didn’t want you to stress about me anymore. My n was to tell you about it once everything is sorted.”


    Standing in the dimly lit hallway, Eileen asked, “Once everything is sorted? How exactly do you n on handling all of this?” After what felt like an eternity of silence, Bailee finally said, “I want a divorce. I want to deal with this on my own.”
