To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 778 Do You Take Me for a Fool?

Graham chuckled coldly. "You loved me? You wouldn't have slept with another man if you loved me. Do you take me for a fool, Rowena Glass?"

Always a reticent man, he was unusually talkative that day, which surprised her. She muttered, "Graham..."

"Tell me what you want from the divorce." He refused to waste time quarreling with her because the divorce was final.

Seeing that, Rowena knew she stood no chance and sat across from him. Staring at the familiar man, who was nothing more than a stranger now, she felt resentment rising in her. "I came here today for a final appeal. I thought you would consider our feelings for each other after years of marriage and might reconsider the divorce if I made a compromise. But I finally realized I was the only one with feelings for you-it was not mutual."

Graham did not respond to her speech at all. She took a deep breath to keep her anger in check. "We can proceed with the divorce if you split the Walter family's assets in half." She gave an offer. He glanced at her and said coolly, "What do you have to do with my family assets? Did you forget about the prenup?"

Wealthy families like the Walters had safeguards in place to protect their familial assets in the event of a divorce. Rowena would only be entitled to Graham's income in the years he worked for Walter Inc and his annual bonus. Unfortunately, he only received some bonuses from Walter Inc over the years instead of a steady income.

"Don't be a jerk, Graham Walter!" Rowena understood the terms of the agreement but refused to accept the reality. She would go after his personal assets if she wasn't entitled to the assets of the Walter family Sadly, Graham didn't have much under his name and would do his best to stop her from getting much.

"The best I can do is two properties in Bardoff City and 10 million dollars," Graham offered a small sum to keep her from causing a scene, even though he would rather not give her a dime. Unsatisfied, she looked at him astonished. "10 million dollars? Are you joking? I'm not a street beggar!"

"If that's too little for you, you can reject the offer. I can always sue you in civil court to make sure you don't get anything from the lawsuit." He could make her walk away with nothing after all she had done to ruin the family.

She gritted her teeth. "Aren't you worried that things might get out of hand..."

"Well, let it be, then! I don't mind being a laughingstock for a few days. The public can't do anything to me as long as I'm the head of the family." He was mentally strong enough to withstand public mockery. His only concern was that a public fallout might affect Jenny and her marriage prospect. Therefore, he would rather keep the divorce lowkey.

Rowena clenched her jaw with hatred; she was at the end of her wits in the face of his fearlessness. "10 million dollars will not cut it. I need at least 50 million dollars."

Technically, he should have offered her hundreds of millions, even billions. Alas, Graham was too shrewd to give her a chance to demand more.

"Rowena Glass, you're the one who did us wrong. I don't mind if you want to kick up a fuss. But have you considered how a public fallout might affect Jo?"

He stared at her, thinking that she was foolish. Then, he went on amid her silence, "Jolene and James are only engaged. How would the Windsors think of her if they heard about this mess? Would they take the chance to call off the engagement? Think wisely."

He stopped there, for there was nothing more to be said.
