Chapter 726

Isabelle had long been accustomed to being looked at this way. Shegave a cold expression and said, "Since you're here, I have somethingto notify all of you.”

"What?" Mrs. Bentley frowned and stared at her.

"My marriage with Tucker is null and void from today onwards!" Isabellestood straight in place, her slender neck slightly raised like a lone swanfighting alone.

She hated the Bentley family, she hated everyone who had hurt her.Including her father!

As the child of the President, there was always a rule that if either theson-in-law or daughter-in-law committed a crime, their marriage wouldautomatically be invalidated once they were imprisoned if their spousewanted to end it.

Although this rule existed for many years, there had only been caseswhere the President's son or daughter-in-law got divorced but neverbefore had there been cases where his daughter abandoned herhusband.

Everyone was in an uproar.

"Oh my god! How can women take the initiative to ask for a divorce?""Here we only give men the right to initiate divorce."

“That's right... If she gets divorced, who will dare marry her? Why is sheso fierce? No wonder she didn't live well."

"She must be too aggressive."

Isabelle heard these various whispers from those present constantlyringing in her ears but it seemed as though she hadn't heard any ofthem at all.

The President angrily raised his hand towards Isabelle's face andslapped it hard.

“You jinx! Try asking for a divorce today! I don't agree!"

"There is a rule that once he goes to jail and as long as I agree, we candissolve our marriage. I am dissolving our marriage now and everyonehere is witness!"

Her face quickly became swollen on one side after being hit but itseemed like she felt nothing at all; pain had already left her body longago.

She numbly looked at the President without any emotions in thosebeautiful eyes, just quietly looking at him like he was some stranger.She wasn't even seeking their approval, but just notifying them!Recently Isabelle has matured quite significantly inside Athena Society.She knew she could never depend on anyone else. She wasdetermined to stand on her own, to become a strong individual whocontrolled her own destiny.

Although deep down inside, Isabella knew what kind of reaction thePresident would have given beforehand, sadness lingered withinherself. "He never shows any tenderness towards me, not even a littlebit."

“You're out of your mind! Who do you think you are? You don't deserveto get divorced!" The President's chest heaved with anger, feelingutterly embarrassed.

How could he have such a rebellious daughter?

“I do deserve it! I'm an independent person too!" Isabelle stared at thePresident with her dark eyes, unblinking. “Not only do I want a divorce,but I also want to work. I want to support myself and fulfill my own life'svalue."

“You dare work? As the daughter of the President, how can you go towork?" The President became even more furious upon hearing this."Women need men to support them! Who would hire you? I'll makesure your employer fires you immediately!"

The director of the TV station trembled as he stood up and spoke,"Miss Deleon applied for our anchor position yesterday. She is highlyprofessional and capable of being a news anchor..."

"Fire her! Right now!" The President roared in anger, feeling challengedby his damned daughter in front of so many guests.

How could he tolerate this humiliation?

"I earn my living through my own abilities and hard work. Why should Ibe fired?" Isabelle said coldly.

"You shameless woman! How dare you become an anchor?! And whydid you choose such an attention-seeking job?" The President pointedat Isabelle furiously. "Get someone here and tie her up for me beforesending her back to the Bentley family where she belongs.”

"Mr. President, isn't that going too far?" Suddenly, a clear voice rangout from the entrance of the banquet hall.

Everyone couldn't help but look over curiously when they heard thisbeautiful voice; they saw a striking man and woman walking in together.The man wore a black suit that accentuated his tall figure; his thin lipscomplemented his straight nose bridge while narrow eyes adorned hishandsome face, making almost every woman present blushuncontrollably as they tried their best not to stare too much.

A woman's arm was wrapped around his.

As their gazes followed the arm, they saw a beautiful and elegantwoman. She was dressed in a light purple evening gown that huggedher curves perfectly, making her even more graceful and alluring. Thepurple diamond necklace around her neck sparkled under the lights,catching everyone's attention.

Once they got a good look at her face, they couldn't help but hold theirbreath. She was stunning! Her features were delicate and flawless,especially those almond-shaped eyes that shone like stars.

Is that really her speaking?
