Chapter 2


    After knowing Ste wanted to get divorced, Sherry Perry, who was her best friend chastised rence


    indignantly for ten minutes and then said, “That bastard really didn’t give you a single cent? He spent


    tons of money on those young models outside, and he’s actually that stingy towards you who is his


    wife?”


    “I don’t think he’s stingy though. I’ve taken quite a big sum of money from him these three years. He’s


    already kind enough to not ask me to pay the debt.”


    “You can’t think like that. You’re husband and wife, his money is your money, and your money is your


    money! Plus, he takes advantage of you every day, what’s wrong in spending some of his money!”


    Ste’s temples throbbed and she said, “Could you use another word?” Sherry calmed down for a


    moment. “I’m sorry, I couldn’t help it.”

    Ste curled up on the couch yet she still could not hold back her anger. She then scolded, “I spoke up


    about the divorce today, and that bastard actually asked how much money do I want? He didn’t even


    look at the divorce agreement, as if he’s scared that I’ll make unreasonable demands or take his life!


    Come on!”


    “By the way, why did you want to get divorced? Why not just stick to him and see who’s going to give


    up first?” Having heard that, Ste calmed down once more. “Oh, Vivian Sean has be pregnant.”


    Vivian Sean was a young model who had little renown recently. She was very close to rence and


    anyone who was not blind could tell that they had an unusual rtionship.


    Ste had gotten married to rence for three years. She knew how much rence hated her. Going


    home twice a month was his greatest tolerance limit. Their intimacy every time was just a matter of


    routine. rence did not have any single feeling towards her. He would do anything to make her feel


    pain.


    Vivian was not the first woman who showed up beside rence, and Ste did not pay attention to her.


    It was until one week ago, when she was delightfully choosing present for the uing third wedding


    anniversary, Vivian suddenly took the pregnancy test report and showed up before her, dering with


    comcence and pride, “I’m pregnant, it’s time to hand over your position as Mrs. Conrad.”


    When she saw the report, Ste felt that the faith she had on rence and their rtionship by


    deceiving herself these three years was all smashed by reality. Those memories mercilessly showed


    up in her mind as if reminding her that although she thought that the woman before her was despicable


    and disgusting, the reason she could marry rence was because she was using the same trick too,


    which was threatening him with the child in her tummy.


    She disgusted rence, just like how the woman disgusted her. It was just that someone had repeated


    her original trick.


    Sherry was exasperated. “How could that be the same, rence was single when you married him, yet


    Vivian obviously knew your existence, and she still wanted to rece you. She’s a barefaced bitch!”


    “Whatever, they’re more or less the same to me,” Ste said. “To be honest, I couldn’t sleep well every


    night for these three years after marrying rence. No matter how, it’s true that he’s forced to marry


    me back then, and it’s good that we get divorced now. I don’t owe him anymore.”


    Sherry then continued chastising rence and Vivian, the dirty people she thought, for half an hour.


    She then brought Ste to her bedroom when she started to feel sleepy. “You can stay here with me


    from today onwards, my boyfriend’s not here anyway, and the house is huge, I’ll be scared to stay here


    alone.” Ste yawned while nodding. “Goodnight.”


    The next afternoon, the divorce agreement showed up on rence’s office desk. The signature at the


    end of the paper looked like a furious creature. Watching his own boss gradually pulled down his face,


    Nathan Lance took a step forward and said, “Mr. Conrad, I’ve confirmed with those from the Starry


    Lake Mansion just now, missus had moved outst night and she did not take anything other than her


    personal items.”


    rence closed the divorce agreement file and tossed it casually to the side. “What is she ying with


    me this time?” Nathan did not answer. She was not his wife though, how would he know the little fun


    between them married couple. rence did not expect to hear any useful answer from him too and he


    said ndly, “Get out.”


    Nathan walked back after taking two steps. “Mr. Conrad, the ne ordered from Paris has arrived,


    so…” That was initially a third wedding anniversary gift which rence wanted to give Ste, yet it


    looked like it had gone to no avail now. “Throw it away,” he spoke icily. “Yes,” Nathan replied. rence


    picked up that divorce agreement once again after Nathan left. His eyes fell onto the signature part. He


    sneered and there was an apathetic look on his face.


    How would an evil woman who could go great lengths to achieve her purpose be willing to sacrifice and


    put up a tragic show, beg him to save her by tugging at his sleeve at the Twilight Club, force him to


    marry her by iming she was pregnant suddenly have her conscience? It must be that she had had a


    new purpose.


    rence crumpled the paper in his hand and tossed it into the dustbin.


    Ste had been waiting at home for a few days and she did not receive any message from rence.


    The messages she sent did not receive a single reply as usual.


    First day’s message: “Have you received the divorce agreement? I’ve signed it. Please tell me if you


    have time so we could go through the formalities together at the civil affairs bureau.” She sounded big-


    hearted, considerate, gentle and obedient.


    Second days’ message: “Hi, have you seen my message? Is there anything about the divorce


    agreement that you’re unhappy with?” She sounded cautious and was bold enough to ask for


    confirmation.


    Third day’s message: “Mr. Conrad, I know you’re busy with your work, but could you please take some


    time to divorce me?” She sounded restrained, reserved and persevered.


    Fourth day: “Come on rence Conrad, could you please be more efficient for the divorce? If you


    really don’t want to see me, hurry up and finish the procedure, and then we’ll not see each other ever


    again, okay?” Since she could not endure it anymore, there was no need for her to endure it.


    During the fifth day---“rence has turned on friend verification function. You are not friends on We


    Chat. Please send him a friend request to start chatting after being epted.” Ste sneered. What a


    bastard. She instantly put down her phone and got up, heading to the Twilight Club. Yet it looked like


    she had quite a bad luck. She did not manage to wait for rence, but had encountered his next future


    wife.


    Vivian had initially promised to have a meal with her friend there. Seeing Ste standing there the


    moment she reached the entrance, she instantly smiled with contempt, walked towards her on her


    high-heels and teased, “Could it be you’re still not willing to give up and want to look for rence


    here?” Ste nced at her with a level look and did not speak a word.


    Seeing her being docile, Vivian felt more exhrated. “How could you be so shameless, I’ve told you


    I’m pregnant, how could you still refuse to let the position as Mrs. Conrad go? Don’t you know how


    unbearable it is to see you struggle to stay?”
