Is the world crus.h.i.+ng down? Or else why is it so dark around me?
He Xiyan tried to clench her shaking fingers but couldn’t make a fist no matter how hard she tried.
Probably broken inside.
She raised her head to look at the tall man in front of her, who at that moment looked so distant that it terrified her.
“Yixuan, have you ever loved me over these years?” She asked in supremely low voice after a long silence, tears clogging her throat.
Mo Yixuan heard it. He turned his face away to oppress his bubbling emotion triggered by something playing in his head. He had to end it, end this disturbing problem.
He looked back at He Xiyan, his eyes still frosted.
“Never! He Xiyan, I married merely because I used to appreciate your kindness to me and that’s all. Now I don’t need it anymore. It has become a burden. So, please leave.”
The heartless words rolled off the man’s tongue and could never be taken back.
He Xiyan bit on her lower lip so hard that it was bleeding again.
She nodded and nodded, hard. She understood.
She bent down and picked up the divorce agreement and the black pen with her shaking fingers.
The agreement was s.h.i.+vering in her hand, and so was his heart.
Without reading through the agreement, she just jumped to the last page and looked at the end, where the man had already signed.
She then put the agreement back on the floor and bowed down. She grasped the pen and signed her name “He Xiyan”, slowly and cautiously.
Upon the completion of the last stroke.
Dang…
The pen dropped. She still heard the man saying those word.
He said that he had never loved her, that he married her merely because of her kindness, that he didn’t need her anymore, and that she was a burden.
Five years of love, five years of dedication, and yet she was left with nothing.
Li Qin picked up the agreement right away. The ridiculously pricey alimony still upset her.
“That’s enough, He Xiyan. Stop playing the victim here. You failed to give birth to the heir to the Mo family, and yet we paid you over 600 million alimony for divorce. We are the ones who should be upset for having accepted someone like you. You’ve got the money you wanted, stop crying.”
Li Qin scolded with a downpour of harsh words. She didn’t know that He Xiyan signed without reading a single word of that agreement.
Mo Yixuan put his hands in the pockets and turned around, leaving his back to his wife, no, ex-wife, on the floor.
He felt like a knife just cut through his chest and left him with an aching heart as if something just broke. Adam’s rib.
“Mother, I need to get back to the company first,” he turned to his mother but didn’t dare to look back at the woman.
Yes, he didn’t have the guts to look at her. He’s afraid that the look of her would soften the hard sh.e.l.l he’d built and unleash his inner anxiety.
“Go ahead, son. I’ll take care of Yuwei.” Li Qin bared her teeth, grinning for finally kicking the disgusting woman out.
Xia Yuwei also took off her disguise and shot a smile of victory to He Xiyan.
