I glanced at him and Wendy, and laughed. “Ask me to save the person who tried to kill
me? Am I stupid?”
Wendy’s eyes started to tear up, “Ms. Ye,
you’re so cold. Betty’s so kind, you can’t do
this to her. Is this because Mark didn’t come
home and save you? If he had, I would have
been in danger instead.” She looked so
pitiful, I rolled my eyes.
Mark grabbed my arm, pulling me out of bed.
“This isn’t up to you. Let’s go now!”
<
As he yelled at me, I clutched at my wound,
smiling. Fine, if that was what they wanted.
At the police station, Wendy took my arm, “Mark, go inside first. I’ll help Ms. Ye walk slowly.” Mark glared at me, and then told Wendy, “Don’t over do it. She’s tough as
nails. She’s not lame.” He turned to me and
gave me a dirty look, “Why are you acting so
pitiful? You’re not the one who was abused,
are you?”
I could feel my heart clenching, even though I
knew what to expect. Wendy leaned close
and whispered, “You need to know when to
quit. You’re so pathetic, no wonder Mark
doesn’t want you! You had a hysterectomy
after the operation, you can’t even be a
mother now. If I were you, I’d just get a
divorce!” Her true colors were showing. Now
く
she didn’t need to pretend to be a good
person.
When Betty saw me, tears welled up in her
eyes. “Ms. Ye, I was threatened with a knife,
and couldn’t save you. But, I’m not your
enemy! I always treated you like my own
daughter, but I see I was wrong to do that.”
The police tried to calm me down. “We
understand your pain, but you can’t just
accuse innocent people. We checked the
security footage, and it was broken. Mark
also told us that Betty took great care of
you.”
I was tired of their blabber. I laughed coldly,
and pulled up a video on my phone. “The
neighbor across the street was woken up by
the alarm. She filmed me being attacked by
<
Betty and Tony.” In the video, Betty’s nasty
expression was clear, and she could be seen
clapping her hands at the attack. “You
wanted evidence, now you have it, are you
still going to deny it?”
The police were speechless, and the captain
sighed, “Ms. Ye, I apologize for
misunderstanding you.”
!!
But Mark wouldn’t stop. “You’re using a fake
video, you bitch! You can get jail time for
lying to the police.”
“Don’t cry, Wendy. I’m going to get justice for
Betty.” He then yelled at me, the victim was
now the villain. I laughed and said, “As my
husband, you turned your back on my calls
for help, and you want me to forgive them? I
want a divorce!”
く
He was stunned, then his face turned red with
frustration. “What are you trying to do? You
think I’m gonna let you use divorce to scare
me? You can barely survive on your own.”
Seeing that I was serious, Mark looked
worried. “Enough! What else do you want?!”
Before he could say anything, Wendy grabbed
his sleeve and whispered, “Mark, if that’s
what she wants, let her get a lesson and
show her how important you are to her.”

“Besides, I’m pregnant with your baby…”
Mark’s eyes flashed, and his face turned red.
He changed his tune, “Fine. We’ll get a
divorce tomorrow.”
Hearing what I wanted, I felt the weight of the
shackles falling to the ground. Holding the
divorce papers, Mark threatened me. “You’ll
<
regret divorcing me, I have the company, and
so many people who love me, you have
nothing!”
“Besides, you’re not even a whole woman
anymore.” He held Wendy’s hand with a
triumphant smirk. “Wendy’s pregnant with my
baby now, and we’re going to have a
beautiful family!”
I smirked at his pathetic display and replied,
“Mark, the premarital medical examination.
report. It’s still with me. Maybe you should
take a look at it for yourself.”
His face turned pale as he opened the report.
Then I smiled at Wendy, who was looking at me with triumph. “I picked you to sponsor,
back when you were so small. You said that
your dad was abusive and your mom had left.
<
You were always so bright eyed, like you
weren’t afraid of anything. What happened to that Wendy?”
“Was betraying your sponsor by sleeping with her husband really the way to repay me?”
Wendy’s eyes widened, and she let go of Mark’s arm. “That’s not true, everything I
have is because of him!”
“Is it wrong for me to take my chance?!” She
couldn’t even make up a good lie. Mark
suddenly threw the papers to the ground. “You’re lying again. I’m not infertile. You
were pregnant, too!”
I chuckled, “You have less than a 2% chance
of reproduction. Congrats, you’re going to be a father again.”
<
Realizing what I meant, he looked at Wendy.
“Wendy, let’s get an amniocentesis, I need to
do a DNA test!”
Wendy looked terrified, “Mark, don’t you trust
me? Don’t listen to her lies! This baby is
definitely yours!” As she was struggling, a
woman with curly hair kicked her to the
ground. She grabbed Wendy’s face, clawing
and scratching. “You bitch! You tried to
seduce my husband?”
“You went to hotels under the guise of work.
You think I’m stupid?!” Wendy screamed as
blood flowed down her face. The woman then
kicked Wendy in the stomach. “I always turn
a blind eye to his affairs. But, I’m not going to
let you take my place, you little animal.” Then,
she smiled at Mark and said, “You must be
the loser this trash just hooked up with!
