“Don’t make baseless claims. Mr. Luo clarified the last time that the woman was spreading false accusations,” Shen Yun defended Lin Wan and explained to her colleagues around her. “Maybe Mr. Xiao sought out Lin Wan today because he knew that woman had caused trouble before and wanted to apologize to Lin Wan.”
Shen Yun understood that Lin Wan wished to keep her identity concealed. Now that Xiao Yichen had acted in such an offensive manner, she had to defend Lin Wan’s reputation no matter what.
When her colleagues heard this, they found Shen Yun’s explanation reasonable.
“That makes sense. Perhaps Mr. Xiao has nothing to do with Lin Wan and simply wants to apologize on behalf of his fiancee?”
“Yeah, that seems likely.”
With the colleagues no longer discussing the matter, Shen Yun returned to her desk and prepared to get back to work.
Xiao Yichen drove swiftly to Blue Bay villa.
Since Lin Wan wasn’t at the office, she had to be home.
Inside the villa at Blue Bay villa, Xiao Yichen entered and noticed the bag on the floor, confirming that Lin Wan was indeed at home.
“Wan’er… Wan’er…” Xiao Yichen called out as he walked into the living room, but there was no response.
He searched the first floor but couldn’t find Lin Wan. So, he proceeded to the second floor.
Upon approaching the master bedroom, Xiao Yichen reached for the doorknob but found the door locked inside, making it impossible for him to enter.
“Wan’er,” he called, certain Lin Wan was inside, but he couldn’t open the door himself.
“Wan’er, please open the door,” Xiao Yichen implored, suppressing his impatience as he waited for a response.
When no answer came, Xiao Yichen couldn’t wait any longer. He turned away and went to the study to retrieve the spare key for the house, returning to open the master bedroom door.
Upon entering, he saw Lin Wan crouched in the corner, trembling.
“Wan’er…” Xiao Yichen rushed over, kneeling in front of Lin Wan.
As he looked at her forlorn expression, his heart ached.
Although Lin Wan hadn’t shed tears, her eyes were extremely red. Her pants were damp from the tears she had shed earlier, and they hadn’t dried.
Lin Wan looked up at Xiao Yichen, her eyes vacant and distant.
Xiao Yichen’s heart ached. Before he could speak, Lin Wan began to speak.
“Xiao Yichen, when are we going to get a divorce?” Lin Wan asked calmly, tinged with a hint of powerlessness.
Xiao Yichen remained silent as he frowned. He hadn’t anticipated this question from Lin Wan.
He took a deep breath, ready to answer, but Lin Wan interrupted him.

“We’ll get a divorce sooner or later. Now, you should be able to let me go, right?” Lin Wan said weakly, continuing, “When the time comes, inform me in advance, and I will be at the Civil Affairs Bureau entrance, waiting for you.” After saying this, Lin Wan slowly stood up, steadying herself against the wall. She stepped forward, attempting to walk past Xiao Yichen and leave the room. However, as she stepped, Xiao Yichen tightly grasped her arm, preventing her from escaping.
“I won’t let you leave, and I won’t divorce you,” Xiao Yichen said, his words grave and resolute.
“But the country doesn’t allow polygamy,” Lin Wan responded to Xiao Yichen..
