Chapter 10
Ava had just managed to get back on her feet when she stumbled and fell straight
into the swimming pool.
Lucas was about to jump in to save her, but when he saw the woman,
his

widened in fear, and he hesitated for several seconds, missing his chance.
The woman grabbed Ava and publicly humiliated her.
“You filthy slut! You even tried to seduce my sixty–something–year–old husband?”
“Guess what? My family’s got ties to the underworld, and everything that old man
has, I

When? It was when he repeatedly hurt me, accusing me of sins I didn’t commit.
Following the advice of industry friends, I assembled a team and started my own
company abroad.
I also made sure to plan for avoiding the division of assets in the event of a divorce.
Lucas was about to say more when Ava conveniently slid in beside him.
She clung tightly to his arm, trying to greet Mr. Taylor, but Mrs. Taylor wrinkled her
nose in disgust and loudly cursed.
“Where did this skanky fox come from? Smells worse than piss.”
I gave Mrs. Taylor a grateful smile.
Ava looked like she wanted to explode, and Lucas’s face darkened too, but they
didn’t dare offend Mrs. Taylor.
So instead, he pointed a finger at me, angrily scolding.
“Eva, it’s bad enough that you’re pregnant with some other man’s child, but now
you’ve been secretly moving our marital assets!”
In this circle, it’s not uncommon for people to have their own secrets.
But when it comes to moving shared assets, which man wouldn’t be furious at the
thought of losing the wealth they worked so hard to build?
A crowd began to gather, even some of the company’s executives, who looked at me

They started recording something on their phones, probably hoping to share the
drama with the rest of the company.
Everyone in the industry present was someone of importance–Lucas clearly
intended to ruin me.
Ava stomped her foot in anger, then stood behind Lucas, smugly reprimanding me.
“Eva, you’ve been fooling around and got yourself pregnant with some other man’s
child. Do you have no shame?”
“If I were you, I’d jump into that pool and drown myself. How can you stand to show
your face?”
Lucas said nothing, clearly waiting for me to admit my guilt.
The chatter around us grew louder, and even Mr. and Mrs. Taylor looked at me with
concern.
Mrs. Taylor, bless her heart, tried to restore order, but everyone was too engrossin
the scandal.
The judgmental stares felt like hands stripping me of my dignity, leaving me exposed
and humiliated.
I couldn’t help but laugh, and Ava responded by throwing a glass of wine in my face.
“What are you laughing at? Today, I’m going to teach you a lesson on behalf of Mr.
Evans, you shameless slut!”
She lunged at me, her sharp nails aimed at my face.

The viciousness in her attack made it clear she wanted to take out all her pent–up
frustration on me.
Lucas, who had been initially startled, watched calmly, almost encouraging Ava with
his eyes to continue tormenting me.
I kicked Ava in the abdomen, sending her crashing into the champagne tower behind
her, leaving her in a pitiful state.
Her pale arms were marred with cuts, some deep, some shallow, leaving ugly scars.
She twisted her face in rage, ready to retaliate.
“Eva, you witch! I won’t let you destroy Mr. Evans’s reputation!”
But before she could act, a group of burly bodyguards burst through the door, led by
a nearly 200–pound woman.
The woman roared in fury, “Ava! You filthy slut, you think you can seduce my
husband? You’re dead!“”
epared to pay the ultimate price!”
It was only then that everyone realized Ava was the shameless woman who had been
trying to seduce an old man.
And the woman, known as a ‘husband–obsessed demon,‘ was fiercely possessive of
her spouse.
Ava had taken advantage of the woman’s absence while she was on vacation to flirt
with the old man at the hospital.
This was information I had gathered through my connections at the hospital.
Soon, the well–trained bodyguards surrounded the upscale venue.
The woman, dripping wet, stomped on Ava, who had just resurfaced from the water.
Leolinto Ava’s abdomen, her eyes filled with malice as she stared at

the bloodstained dress.
“So, this is where you’re carrying my husband’s child? You’re all going to pay a heavy
price!”
“I did my research–Lucas has a low sperm count. Without IVF, the chances of him
getting someone pregnant are slim!”
“So, you decided to use my husband’s money and sperm to play mistress for this
loser?”
Lucas broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.
All eyes turned to him, and the mocking laughter grew louder, like thunder that
couldn’t be silenced.
Lucas glared at Ava, hoping she could lie her way out of this and save him from the
humiliation.
But Ava, beaten and kicked by the woman, curled up on the ground like a pile of
mud, occasionally coughing up blood.
Under the woman’s relentless pressure, Ava had no choice but to confess.
“I… I didn’t know the old man had a wife! Please, stop hitting me!”
“I’m innocent. I didn’t even want the old man. It’s Lucas who couldn’t satisfy me.”
“After all those times, he never once performed, so I had to lie and tell him I was
using some special medicine.”
“How was I supposed to know he’d actually believe me? It’s not my fault; it’s those

disgusting men!”
“Why are you only blaming me? I became a mistress because they used me and
refused to give me a proper status.”
Someone in the crowd even spoke up to defend Ava.
“Oh, poor girl, it’s not easy for her.”
But Mrs. Taylor quickly shot them down with a cold laugh.
“Not easy? How about you give her to your husband then?”
Lucas glared at Ava with
pure hatred. As soon as the woman let go of Ava, he rushed
over like a crazed beast.
He grabbed Ava by the jaw, squeezing hard, and slapped her repeatedly.
“Ava, you bitch…”
“How dare
you
deceive me? I’ll kill you!”
In that moment, Lucas lost all the grace and poise he usually displayed in public.
He revealed his true, violent nature, determined to destroy everything in his path.
Ava struggled to breathe under his grip, her once–white dress now soaked with
blood.
Everyone was shocked by Lucas’s unhinged revenge.
Someone in the crowd remarked.
“Wow, that’s brutal. No wonder his wife left him.”
“Hahaha, even the mistress would rather sleep with an old lover…”
