Chapter 151

However, I underestimated how cautious Julianne would be. She never used her phone to contact Travis. She had also erased all traces of their chat history. For a long time, I didn't gain anything useful from spying on her through her phone.Until today.This recording was the most useful thing I had gotten after monitoring her phone for so long.It wasn't the only thing I had, of course. I also had screenshots of her chat history with Irvin and with me. However, I decided to show only the recording since it was sufficient. It was conclusive enough to nail him for violating our agreement.If he didn't think it was enough evidence, I still had plenty to show him.Irvin's face became gloomier when he heard me say I had more evidence."Where did you get that recording? Did you hire someone to spy on me?" he questioned.He was a smart man, after all. So, it wasn't surprising that he was able to put the pieces together so quickly.I shrugged. "No, I didn't. Someone sent this to me,

He didn't want to let go of me. No matter what, he just couldn't, unless he died.But even if he died, he still didn't want to let go. He wanted to take me with him.He couldn't live without me—not even when he was suffering, and especially not now. I frowned. "Are you trying to disregard the agreement and force me to sue you?"My agreement with Irvin wasn't just a verbal promise. He couldn't go back on his word whenever he pleased.Our agreement was legally binding. If he broke his promise, I could take him to court. With the divorce agreement in hand, the court would grant the divorce and divide the assets according to what was stated in it.He would leave the marriage with nothing!Irvin saw my determination to sue him and the disgust in my gaze. There was no trace of the love I once had for him. The despair in his eyes slowly turned into rage. No matter what, he just couldn't accept that I stopped loving him. And I stopped loving him without hesitation. There were no li

But saying he didn't know me wasn't entirely true. After learning the truth, he knew full well that I intended to divorce him and leave him for good.The so-called chance I gave him was just to make him suffer even more. There was no way I could ever forgive him.So, while I thought I had tricked him, he had already been plotting against me.He had treated me like an enemy, cunningly transferring the shares of the shell company to me while secretly owning a new company that was entirely under his control.If we didn't divorce, our two companies would remain one, and the company in my name would continue to thrive.But the moment we divorced, my company would go bankrupt instantly. Not only would I lose everything, but I would also be drowning in debt, just like what he said.I stared at Irvin as he spoke so genuinely, claiming he never intended to hurt me and never would. And that all he wanted was to be with me.I wanted to say something, but the words never left my lips, becau

As I was too focused on figuring out how to fight my way back in this situation, I completely forgot that night had already fallen.By the time I arrived at Mark's law firm, the building was completely dark.I couldn't help but chuckle. I really had lost my mind after that blow.I was so anxious that I wanted to call Mark to ask what I should do in this situation. I wanted to know whether there were any legal loopholes that I could use to fight back.However, I realized it was already late, and he was probably asleep.I shouldn't disturb his rest. Besides, even if there was a legal way to break through this situation, it wasn't something that could be solved instantly.I put my phone away.Just moments ago, I had been confident that I would have my divorce certificate tomorrow. I would be completely free from this marriage and start focusing on my studies. But after this sudden blow, I couldn't calm myself down no matter how hard I tried.I drove aimlessly through the quiet w

Neither Shaun nor I noticed that someone had taken a picture of us entering the hotel together.Just as I finished washing up and was ready to lie in my bed, Irvin called me. I initially didn't want to answer, but after giving it some thought, I picked up."Emi, why aren't you home?" he asked.Irvin thought I had gone home after leaving. Once he had composed himself, he went to my place but found I wasn't home."Why does it matter to you whether I go home or not?" I replied coldly. I couldn't understand how he could act this way after doing that to me."Emi—""Don't call me that!" I cut him off. "And stop pretending to be all affectionate. Even if you don't find it disgusting, please spare me from it!"Irvin instinctively explained, "Emi, I'm not pretending.""Oh? Then was your brand-new company built in a day? You must have spent quite some time draining your current company, right?"Now that I had calmed down, I had been thinking about it. I answered his call to get informat

Chapter 156

After hanging up on Irvin, I lay in bed, my mind racing with thoughts of how to escape. I was wide awake the entire night.As soon as morning arrived, I could finally call Mark and arrange a meeting to discuss the situation.After contemplating it all night, I had come up with a possible loophole, but I wasn't sure if it was feasible. I needed the opinion of a professional lawyer.Mark frowned after hearing everything.He was present when Irvin transferred all his assets to me, reviewing all the relevant documents and ensuring there were no issues. He had assumed Irvin was genuinely remorseful and that he wanted to make up for his mistake. He never imagined the truth to be something like this!He apologized immediately, "I'm sorry, Emilia. I didn't even realize this possibility back then."Sawyer Corporation was one of the country's leading companies with a promising future.Therefore, Mark naturally assumed there was fine. It never occurred to him that there could be an issue

"But he didn't choose to divorce you," Mark pointed out. "Instead, he told you all these to keep you. If that's the case, then he must truly love you."He continued, "He probably didn't intend to harm you but was just desperate to hold onto you. Maybe he was afraid that you'd never forgive him no matter what, so he wanted to bind you to him first. "If you still have feelings for him, and if there's a chance for reconciliation, perhaps you can try to resolve the past and move forward together."If there was a chance for us to reconcile, then there would be no need to waste energy searching for evidence."No way!" I replied without hesitation. "I'll never be with him again!"Not that I believed his love for me was genuine, but even if it was, there was no way I'd ever be with him again!Not all pain and wounds could be healed by love."If you can't be with him again, then… you could use his feelings to your advantage," Mark said. "You can seduce him or lower the hostility between

But I quickly noticed it.And the bodyguards I had hired with a high price noticed it even sooner.They told me about it through their Bluetooth earpieces, informing me that these people had been following me since I left home. They were certain that these people were intending to harm me.I raised an eyebrow. I knew Julianne wouldn't just sit back and do nothing after what I had done to her. I had forced her into the corner not just to divorce Irvin but also to push her into making a move against me.Since it was too difficult to track down Travis, I decided to wait for her second attempt. She had to pay for what she had done!She wanted me dead, so if I continued to pressure and humiliate her, she would only be more determined to kill me.She would think of every possible method and make a move against me. Sure enough, she was coming for me again.I pulled my phone out, pretending to look at it, while using the camera to scan my surroundings. There was more than one person who

I was actually wrong.It hadn't been over a decade. The difficult time I endured after my severe injury made it feel like many years had passed. But if I really thought about it, it had only been about eight years since he returned to his family in high school. "It's me," he said.This ridiculously good-looking guy seemed completely unaware of how dashing he was or how fatal his smile could be. He smiled innocently at me. Seeing his smile, I couldn't help but sigh. He had really changed so much.I remembered when he used to be short and chubby because he had a big appetite. He was also going through puberty back then, so his face was often riddled with acne. The only thing that still looked the same as before was his eyes. And since he was wearing sunglasses earlier, it was normal for me not to recognize him.I used to be quite close with Noah because I had spent most of my time at Cordelia's place during my three years of high school. In a way, I had watched him grow up.Bu

In the parking lot, just as I was about to get into the driver's seat, Noah stepped forward after placing his suitcase. "Let me drive, Emi," he said.I raised an eyebrow and teased him. "Why? Do you not trust my driving skills just because I'm a woman?"Noah chuckled. "Of course not. I've just never driven such a nice car before. I wanted to give it a try."Knowing how much guys love cars, I smiled and walked to the passenger seat.After I got into the car, I received a call from the head bodyguard, saying that everything had been taken care of.I replied, "Please be careful, everyone."This wasn't the car that I drove here. Right now, my bodyguards were using the car I originally drove to lure the people who had been following me. They wanted to catch the people once they made their move. Even though my team was highly professional, I still hoped they would be extra careful and prioritize their safety.After I hung up, Noah glanced at me. "Emi, why did you say be careful? D
