The crowd erupted into murmurs. “If he’s swearing on his own daughter’s life, he’s probably telling the truth. Damn, I thought she was exposing a homewrecker, but it turns out she’s just a jealous wife going crazy.”
“And she even ruined that poor girl’s face! Look at how vicious she is, yanking her by the hair. No wonder her husband wants a divorce!”
“That guy actually seems decent. It looks like he’s been pushed to his limit.”
In a daze, I loosened my grip on Skyla’s hair.
The young employees quickly shielded her and hurriedly pulled her away from me.
Through the crowd, Skyla slowly lifted her head and met my gaze in silence. Her eyes were mocking and filled with contempt. There was even a hint of pity.
Suddenly, I felt calm.
From the moment I found that folder, I was consumed by fury. This was the first time I truly felt calm.
I turned to Aiden. Looking straight at him, I spoke slowly, “No, I don’t agree to the divorce.”
