Chapter 3
“I don’t agree to this divorce! Liam, I can face whatever difficulties that the company faces with you. A divorce can’t solve the problems.
“We have love and a baby who is on the way. Can you give me one more chance to make it up?”
The baby in my belly was still shouting.
“Mom, don’t say things like this. Dad looks down on women who devalue themselves. Quickly leave him with nothing. He will definitely regret it, and he will cry and beg you to come back!”
I gritted my teeth tightly and firmly ignored my daughter’s whisper.
Indeed, after I asked Liam to stay, he did not leave heartlessly like in the past.
I knew that Liam never betrayed me. He had requested a divorce out of anger.
I started working even harder, and I put myself into the company and Liam.
I knew that I caused massive losses to the company, so I tried my best to make up for it.
I kept promoting the company and proactively got Liam on television. I tried to increase the popularity of the company.
Indeed, through my hard efforts, the company’s revenue shot straight up.
But even if I desperately wanted to stop everything from happening again, the gears of fate kept on turning.
During an interview, Liam’s interaction with a female guest was made ambiguous because of the malicious editing by the studio. This caused Liam to experience cyberbullying, and the company’s stock price dropped drastically. We determined that the only way to salvage the crisis was if Liam and I pretended to divorce.
Just like in the past, I was forced to sign the divorce papers once again.
To silence the media, I moved out of our house overnight and cut off contact with Liam.
But on the day we agreed to remarry, Liam did not show up.
I was very nervous, and I heard the baby’s whisper again.
“Dad is marrying another woman. Mom, if you have any dignity, you should just go far away with me. I don’t want a father like him. If you lower your dignity and go back to him, I won’t acknowledge you as my mother!”
When I heard the news of Liam getting remarried, my mind went blank.
My principles told me I needed to pull out of this relationship. But I subconsciously fought against the baby’s whispers. Almost without hesitation, I hailed a cab and headed straight to Liam’s wedding venue.
Two months ago, I was still happily married and with a family.
But since I got pregnant, my parents left me one after another, and the man who used to say he would love me forever was going to marry another woman.
I knew that I would probably not escape death like in the past, but I still wanted to make one last stand.
After I came to the wedding, Liam looked at me with hatred.
“I despise clingy women the most. You have no dignity, and you really disgust me. I’ve found the woman I love now. How long are you going to pester me?”
Every word from Liam felt like a dagger to my heart. My mouth opened slightly, but I could only shake my head weakly.
I wanted to ask why. Why did my life feel like a pre-written script? Why did all my efforts seem like a joke?
I did not want to die yet. I refused to follow the path that was predetermined by fate.
Just when the moment of my death came in the past, the woman who married my husband suddenly turned back and cast a meaningful gaze at me.
In that instant, I was so shocked that my scalp tingled.
I finally knew why I could hear the baby’s whisper!
I finally found a way to change my life path and to survive!
