Chapter 74
Did Belinda know about my plans to divorce Abigail and come to humiliate and berate me on purpose? I was already fed up with the insults from both of them. I stared coldly at her and asked nonchalantly, “What brings you to my humble abode?”
Belinda looked shocked, clearly not expecting me to respond like that. Her expression darkened as she clenched her teeth in anger. “If you weren’t such a useless coward who couldn’t keep Abigail’s heart, we wouldn’t be facing such rumors!”
I shook my head and replied calmly, “Belinda, I’ve decided to divorce Abigail. It’s her who refuses to let go. Given how influential you are, you must know that I’m seriously ill and don’t have long to live, right?”
Upon hearing this, she scoffed and glanced at me dismissively. “Yeah, I know, so what? Let me tell you, when you were shamelessly pursuing Abigail, I didn’t stop it because you somehow made her so devoted to you that she even threatened to kill herself!
“I felt sorry for her, so I let it go. But now, even if you want a divorce, you need to clear Abigail’s mess first. Do you understand?”
“Mess?” I was stunned by her words. I couldn’t help but ask in disbelief, “Are you talking about Joshua?”
* “Otherwise?” she shouted, her voice rising as she glared at me. “If it weren’t for you, would
Abigail even be with another man?”
“Do you know what people in this circle say about our family? This is all your fault!”
Belinda threw all the blame at me without hesitation. I didn’t argue; I simply let her rant until she calmed down. Then, I looked at her calmly and smiled, saying, “Belinda, I think you have the wrong person.”
“What do you mean?” Her voice turned sharp, eyes wide with surprise.
I shook my head and sighed. “What I mean is, you should really talk to Abigail instead. She’s the one who pursued Joshua first, and he’s her treasure now. She won’t just drop him after a few words from me.”
If it weren’t for me, Belinda would never have had the opportunity to live like a lady of leisure now. It was unfortunate that she didn’t recognize the sacrifices I made for her family–or maybe she simply didn’t care about the process, only the results.
“I don’t care! You have to take care of this matter!” she coldly stated, cutting me off before turning and storming out.
I closed the door quietly, my gaze calm, not bothering to say another word. It seemed I really needed to leave this place first. Ever since they discovered where I lived, it felt like I was on
