“Impossible. It can’t be her, another person replied with disdain. “If she really had any skills, she would’ve used them to seduce Edwin long ago. She can’t compare to these dancers at all.”

Edwin looked up indifferently, seeing only the woman’s silhouette, slender and graceful. It did bear some resemblance to Sharon. But in his view, Sharon was full of schemes and lies. She had been careful with her words and actions to maintain their marriage. She couldn’t come to dance such a bold dance.

Edwin couldn’t help but recall her behavior when they met at the restaurant. He stepped aside and made a call home, asking, “Is Sharon at home?”

“She hasn’t come back since she left in the morning…” the servant replied.

Edwin’s face darkened. In the next moment, he smiled coldly and thought, ‘Does she think I’ll pity her because of these tricks? She is mistaken. Fool

me once!

Edwin calmly walked into the private room and sat down. One of his friends approached him. “Edwin, you shouldn’t have gotten involved with someone like Sharon in the first place. Just throw money at her and make her disappear. It would have been over then. Look, on the surface, she claims it’s just an accident and won’t pursue it further. She goes out and tells the reporters you’re engaged, about to get married. She’s so shameless!”

This remark touched on Edwin’s sore spot. He frowned, and his expression turned extremely gloomy.

“Hold your tongue, the person opposite him interjected. “When that incident happened, Edwin should not have acted too harshly as a man. relationship was just an accident. Giving her money is too much.”

“Ask Edwin if that was an accident. This whole thing was intentionally designed by Sharon, the first one replied.

Their

“Even if it was her design, without the follow–up incident, it wouldn’t… Before the second person could finish his sentence, he stopped abruptly. casting a furtive glance at Edwin

Edwin lowered his gaze and drank silently, his face darkening considerably. The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

One of his friends patted him on the back. “Edwin, you’ve been married to her for four years, but you probably can’t even remember what she looks like. If that’s the case, you might as well kick her out early. It’s not worth wasting your youth on a trashy woman like her. Without you, she’ll probably only have those old, poor, ugly guys willing to take her. That’s all she’s worth.”

Following that mocking laughter echoed inside the room.

Outside the door, Alanna and Sharon were just passing by and unexpectedly heard these remarks. Alanna was so angry that her eyes turned red. With her fists clenched, she wanted to rush in and argue. However, Sharon forcefully pulled Alanna away.

“Why are you stopping me? Those self–righteous bastards treated you like that. I can’t swallow this!” Alanna yelled angrily.

Sharon patted her shoulder calmly. “We’re already divorced. Let them say what they want.”

Before the divorce, she always couldn’t help but defend herself, trying to change the impression in Edwin’s and his friends minds. But it was furile. At that time, it was for the sake of family harmony. But now that there was no need, she wouldn’t care about what others said anymore,

Alanna was still furious. “You endured so much humiliation for him over the years. He didn’t believe in you, didn’t even remember what you looked like, and even thought you are only fit for the old, poor, and ugly. I’m going to make them see how outstanding you are and what kind of man you

deserve.”

Sharon thought she was just venting, so she didn’t take it to heart and comforted her before leaving.

The next day, considering that there were still important things left at Stanley Manor, Sharon went there to retrieve them. She didn’t go in but called the servant to help bring them out.

As soon as she finished the call, a car pulled up in front of her. Edwin got out of the car with a cold expression. His impatient gaze swept over her. After all the fuss last night, he thought she had come back obediently after being ignored. “Have you had enough of causing trouble! Go in,” Edwin ordered coldly.

Sharon was slightly taken aback. Then, she understood what was going out. Edwin probably thought she still had feelings for him. With a slight smile, the reminded him, “Mr. Stanley, it seenu like your memory is failing you. We got divorced yesterday”

Edwin frowned. “When there’s a way out, you u should take it. After causing all that trouble, you only end up embarrassing yourself”

Sharon thought inwardly, “A way out! His words are just cold and mocking, so where is the way out?

She was about to speak when she suddenly heard a loud noise. She couldn’t help but turn her head to look, and what she saw was a huge banner

saying. “Congratulations to Sharon for breaking free from suffering and divorcing successfully!” Besides the banner, there were also some small signs with words that said. “Sharon, happy divorce?”

Sharon was stunned by this sudden change, her mouth slightly agape. Before she could react, someone handed her a bouquet of roses and said, “Sharon, can you consider me now

Sharon looked up and saw an incredibly handsome man. Besides, he was 6 feet tall and had a perfect figure.

Before Sharon could say anything, the man dropped to one knee and said affectionately, “I can’t promise the world, but I swear to cherish every moment we spend together. Ill hold you in the palm of my hand, listen to you, make you smile, believe in you, stand by you, and never, ever let you feel alone.”

As Edwin heard that, his face darkened.
