Chapter 364: Chapter 365: Absurd
“Why?” Xie Wennan shouted in desperation, “I’m still young! I’m beautiful, and I still have a father who’s a professor…”
“You’re not young anymore,” Xie Yanbo interrupted her, “You’re in your thirties, and you carry the stigma of being a wicked stepmother. What good man would want to marry you?”
“If he’s a good man, there must be plenty of respectable women who would love to be with him. Why would they pick a woman with such a bad reputation to be their wife?”
“Then there are Linlin and Lulu. Even if you divorce Ling Fangzhou, as long as you don’t leave this family, Linlin and Lulu can grow up in a normal environment.”
“Gradually you can change, treat Fangzhou and Lingyue better. Over time, Fangzhou might change his heart.”
Xie Wennan slowly stopped crying and closed her eyes in despair.
She had no way out now.
Just as her father said, if she divorced Ling Fangzhou, she would never find a better man than Ling Fangzhou again.
And her twins would lose a complete family.
By divorcing without leaving the house, at least the lives of her children will not be affected.
She opened her eyes, looked at Xie Yanbo, and said with a trembling voice full of resentment: “If I sign the divorce papers with Ling Fangzhou, all the money Ling Fangzhou earns in the future will have nothing to do with me. He will definitely give it all to Lingyue. Dad, I can’t bear it, I can’t bear it…”
All of Ling Fangzhou’s belongs to her and her children.
Just thinking about Ling Fangzhou using her and her children’s money to raise Lingyue, she felt as if she was being cut by a knife, it was unbearable.
“Even if you can’t bear it, you’ll have to endure!” Xie Yanbo said coldly: “Nannan, sign the divorce agreement honestly, cultivate your temperament, be a good woman with a kind heart, win back Fangzhou’s heart, let him change his mind, willingly give everything he has to you. That’s the only way out for you!”
Xie Yanbo sighed again, frustrated, “If you had listened to me before and treated Lingyue better, would you be in this predicament now?”
“Lingyue is already eight this year, bear it for another three years, wait for him to get to junior high school, find him a good boarding school, let him live there. He will just be a guest in this house, coming back once every ten days or half a month, can he affect you?”
“I can’t bear it!” Xie Wennan clutched her chest in pain, her voice shaking: “Ling Fangzhou prioritizes Lingyue. When Lingyue grows up, he will definitely give him a lot of money. Ling Fangzhou’s money belongs to me and Linlin and Lulu!”
“Ridiculous!” Xie Yanbo cursed in anger: “Lingyue is the legitimate child of the original wife! Everything Fangzhou has belongs to him too, how can you be so greedy?”
Xie Wennan shook her head desperately.
Maybe she had been wrong from the very start.
She shouldn’t have been infatuated with Ling Fangzhou, obsessively wanting to marry him.
She thought she could make Lingyue disappear from Ling Fangzhou’s life, making Ling Fangzhou treat Lingyue as if he doesn’t exist, but she couldn’t.
She cannot bear to share a husband with a deceased woman, nor can she let the son of that deceased woman share Ling Fangzhou’s fatherly love with her children.
She was in so much pain.
So much pain, so much pain.
She clenched the front of her clothes, crying heartrendingly.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and Ling Fangzhou stood at the door, cold and indifferent, “Five minutes is up. Have you made your choice? Sign the papers, or see you in court?”
Xie Yanbo glanced at Xie Wennan and made the choice for her: “We’ll sign..”
