Ovemight, Darlena went from being a billionaire to a penniless, debt–ridden woman.
She couldn’t accept this reality, especially since she had two children to support.

“Goodness, you just said the other day you’d treat Darlena well. Why are you doing this to her now? Mirabel is already gone–are you going to abandon your own children for her? Those lads are your flesh and blood! Yes, it was wrong for Darlena to provoke Mirabel, but what woman would willingly live her whole life as a mastress’s understandable that she wanted to fight for her righttul place.”
At the time, Fraser was overwhelmed trying to track Mirabel’s whereabouts. Hearing his mother’s words, he coldly replied, “Mom, if you take in Darlena and those lods, we’re done. If you still want me as your son, then get rid of all three of them.”
Fraser’s mother thought he was just speaking out of anger and allowed Darlena to stay at their family home.
But the next day, Fraser made a public statement across all major media platforms, announcing that he had severed ties with his parents. He immediately flew back to the country to formalize the paperwork.

Fraser’s face, however, was as dark as thainderclouds,
He undered security to drag Darlens out, but she clung to his leg, refusing to let go. She cried and begged, saying the children couldn’t live without their father. She reminded him of the countless nights they had shared, claiming it was heartless to abandon her like this.
To be honest, even Aston, who usually remained indifferent, was annoyed by the spectacle of a mistress showing up with children to demand attention. Instinctively, he glanced at Mirabel.
But she was thoroughly enjoying the show, calmly peeling and eating a piece of fruit as if it were a casual drama.
Aston had heard of Mirabel and Fraser’s once–loving relationship, even coming across fan–edited videos of them online. Back then, the way Mirabel looked at Fraser was full of love, She would even get jealous if he so much as glanced at another woman.
Now, her gaze was indifferent and cold, as though she were looking at a stranger.
