Chapter 10
“You!”
Julian’s face turned red with embarrassment as he was rebuked by me in public, yet he still blocked my way, refusing to leave.
“Clara, I’ve begged you so humbly. Don’t you feel sorry for me at all?
After a long silence, Julian squeezed out those words through gritted teeth, looking at me pitifully.
Just as I was about to respond, I suddenly noticed a sturdy woman angrily approaching Julian, carrying a wooden stick as she
laughed.
“Julian, you say you’re sincerely asking to get back together with me, but aren’t you already married? Aren’t you afraid of committing bigamy?
Completely unaware of the approaching danger, Julian was thrilled, mistakenly believing I had softened.
He smiled happily, saying, “Oh! So that’s why you were so hesitant before! Relax, that woman is just a shrew–I could never like
her. I have to close my eyes even when I am being intimate with her.
“As long as you agree, I’ll go home right now and prepare a divorce paper. My mom will definitely agree.”
Julian rubbed his hands excitedly, imagining his happy future. He felt like the vast wealth of the Whitmore family was waving at
him.
However, in reality, what greeted him was a solid hit from his wife, Eleanor Harper.
“Julian Lancaster, looks like you’ve grown some guts! You dare to flirt behind my back and even think about divorcing me?”
