Why Are You Like This?

Kristen was so angry that her whole body was trembling.

She had been engaged to Trey for two years and married him for a year. She knew he didn't like her, so she never came here.

However, she had to figure out the truth about the design drafts!

It was her dream. The dream she had worked so hard to realize was easily ruined by a copy.

"I know."

The receptionist sneered, "I know you are Mrs. Barrett, the daughter of the driver of the Barrett family. When you got married, the media was filming the whole thing. I watched the wedding.

"Well, Mrs. Barrett, I am sorry to tell you that this is the rule here. You can't see the CEO without an appointment.

"If you don't leave, I will ask the security guards to kick you out."

Everyone in the company knew that Trey was extremely disgusted with Kristen, and the receptionist showed Kristen no respect at all.

Meanwhile, a luxury car stopped at the door.

Kristen turned her head to look.

A young woman in fashionable clothes, wearing sunglasses and 3-inch high heels, came in.

The contempt on the receptionist's face was immediately replaced by a smile. She greeted the woman with a smile, "Ms. Locke, hi.

"You can take the CEO's exclusive elevator. This way, please. The CEO is waiting for you."

Kailyn Locke glanced at Kristen from the corner of her eye and sneered, "Don't let trash in, or Trey's mood will be ruined."

"Yes, sure. I see.

"Where are the security guards? Kick this woman out!"

Two security guards ran over and reached out to hold Kristen's arms.

"Let go of me! I want to see Trey! You bastards!"

However, Kristen, the so-called Mrs. Barrett, had no say in the Barrett Group at all. She was nobody, even in front of the security guards.

Kristen was only 100 pounds. She was no match for two beefy security guards.

Bang!

The security guards threw her out of the Barrett Group, just like how she was thrown out of the venue an hour ago.

There was a rumble.

The weather didn't favor her either.

The heavy rain poured without warning, and the sky was so dark and depressing.

The pedestrians on the road were in a hurry, and because of the heavy rain, no one had time to pay attention to Kristen, who was in a sorry state.

Kristen hid in the eaves of the adjacent mall and shuddered, while her eyes were fixed on the Barrett Group.

She had to get to the bottom of it today!

She could ignore everything else. It didn't matter if Trey didn't love her or mock her, but he didn't have the right to destroy her dream!

Half an hour passed, and then one hour, two hours, and three hours.

After three whole hours, Trey went downstairs with Kailyn, the Z-list star.

Kristen rushed into the heavy rain while ignoring her tired body and went straight to the Barrett Group.

"Mr. Barrett, Ms. Locke."

The receptionist greeted Trey and Kailyn respectfully. When she looked up, she saw Kristen rushing over. She hurriedly winked at the security guards standing at the door.

She gestured with her eyes, wanting them to drag Kristen away, in case she affected Trey's mood.

Yet the two security guards failed to stop the crazy Kristen.

"Get lost!"

Kristen roared and rushed into the lobby. She reached out and grabbed Trey's arm.

Trey was stunned and then came back to his senses. "What are you doing here? Why are you like this?"

Kailyn's eyes went cold, and she pulled Kristen. "What are you doing? You are so dirty. Get your hands off Trey."

"Get out of my way!"

Kristen pushed Kailyn away and still grabbed Trey tightly. She stared at him with wide eyes and asked word by word, "Trey, tell me that you didn't show my design draft to Emilee. It wasn't you, right?"

Now that things had come to this, she still held hope for him, the man with nothing but coldness and aloofness.

Let's Get Divorced

"What design draft? The one for the dress on your desk in the study?"

Trey frowned.

"I showed them to Emilee. She said that she had encountered a bottleneck in her design and wanted to look at some manuscript, but your childish manuscript was useless to her."

"Useless?"

Kristen loosened her hand and staggered back a few steps. Her whole body trembled, and she was almost unable to speak.

"Trey, what right do you have to steal my dream? It's my entry!

"How can you be so cruel?

"You don't like me. You hate me. It's fine. But how can you be so shameless?"

Kristen roared madly at Trey, her tears falling.

She had known him for more than a decade and loved him for seven years. She had always followed him obediently, just like a marionette.

He was the source of all her emotions.

But...

"What's wrong with you?"

Trey was very dissatisfied with Kristen making a scene in the company.

"What's wrong with me?

"Emilee copied my script and published it early. She ruined my dreams and my future. And you're accusing me?

"Trey, how can you do this to me?"

Trey drove Kristen mad.

All the grievances she had endured these years burst out in an instant.

She rushed up, grabbed Trey by the collar, and questioned him madly.

"Let go, you bitch! What are you doing?"

Kailyn rushed up and pulled Kristen.

Kristen was so angry that she slapped Kailyn in the face.

Kailyn's expression changed at once. "Bitch! How dare you hit me!

"You're dead!"

Kailyn fought with Kristen.

Seeing the chaotic scene, Trey frowned and reached out to pull Kristen. "Enough. This is my company. Stop making a fuss! Look at yourself!

"Let the driver send you back. We'll talk tonight."

Just as Trey pulled Kristen, Kailyn was able to break free and slapped Kristen hard twice.

Trey's eyes turn cold. "What are you doing?"

"She slapped me first."

Kailyn snorted, still feeling aggrieved.

Trey hurriedly looked down and wanted to say something.

Yet he saw that Kristen, who had been like a leopard just now, suddenly lost her fighting spirit.

"Trey."

Kristen suddenly looked up at him, her eyes dimmed.

Trey was slightly stunned. He had a bad feeling.

"Let's get divorced."

Kristen thought, let's just leave it like this. I woke up after seven years...

Trey was instantly stunned.

"What did you say?"

"Let's get divorced."

Kristen broke free from him, turned around, and walked step by step towards the heavy rain, muttering, "Seven years. I've been a fool for seven years."

She thought, Emilee is the only one he loves.

I had the delusion that if I worked hard enough, Trey would see me one day.

And now, I have nothing.

It has been my dream to be an excellent fashion designer.

I don't want to be a woman relying on others without income or independent financial ability.

However, in Trey's eyes, I'm just a joke.

"Kristen, what the hell is wrong with you?"

Seeing Kristen walking into the heavy rain without looking back, Trey felt something weird. After a moment of silence, he chased after her.

"Trey!"

Kailyn quickly grabbed Trey and held his arm, refusing to let go. "Trey, I am so scared."

"Kristen!"

Meanwhile, Kristen, who had walked to the middle of the road, didn't see the car coming from the side at all...

You Are Nothing

Trey roared and pushed Kailyn aside, running toward the middle of the road.

"Mr. McKee, there is a crazy woman in front!"

Bryce Donaldson, who was driving, was startled by Kristen, who suddenly came into his sight.

In the back seat, a man with his legs crossed and a black suit was resting with his eyes closed. Hearing Bryce's words, he opened his eyes slightly and glanced at her coldly. His profile was hard.

"What are you waiting for instead of stepping on the brakes? You want my opinion?"

Bang!

The car stopped.

The man almost bumped into the passenger seat. He frowned unhappily.

Bryce felt innocent.

He thought, you asked me to brake.

"Where is she?"

The man asked coldly.

"I didn't hit her. It was a few inches away."

Bryce glanced at the rearview and sighed with relief.

He was glad that he was good at driving. Others might not be able to react.

Kristen was startled by the sudden appearance of the car. She blacked out, hit the car, and fell.

Bryce was stunned.

"Mr. McKee, I didn't hit her. Believe me! It was a scam!"

The man said nothing and looked on coldly.

Then Trey came out and picked up the unconscious Kristen.

"Trey?

"Kristen Stafford, the daughter-in-law of the Barrett family," the man sneered coldly.

"Let's go."

The man's car left quickly.

Trey turned to look at the car. The plate looked familiar.

He was stunned for a moment. Then he came back to his senses and looked down at the woman who had fainted. Her hair was messy, her body was wet, and her hands had wounds.

In all the years he had known her, it was the first time he had ever seen her so embarrassed.

And the scene of her fighting with Kailyn shocked him even more.

Kristen always struck him as a well-behaved bunny. She was quiet and meek, and she didn't even dare to speak loudly in front of him. Yet today, she was like a shrew.

Was that the Kristen he knew?

"Trey, I thought we were going to dinner.

"She didn't get hit. She must be pretending to be unconscious. Don't be fooled by her. She's a vixen.

"She looks innocent, but I'm sure she is very scheming."

Kailyn finally got a chance to date Trey, and she was unwilling to let go of the opportunity. She rushed over anxiously and pinched Kristen hard.

She thought that Kristen was putting on an act and secretly pinched Kristen hard.

"Piss off!"

Trey was very annoyed. He had no time to deal with Kailyn.

His assistant had already driven up.

Trey picked up Kristen and got in the car.

Looking at the car that sped away, Kailyn stomped her foot angrily and cursed, "Kristen, you bitch! You ruined everything! How scheming! You tried to win him back by acting like you were going to leave him!

"You are just the daughter of a driver, yet you won't step down! You just want to be Trey's wife! You're so disgusting."

By the time Kristen woke up, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

She was awakened by the frantic vibrating sound of her phone.

She opened her eyes in a daze, took the phone, and saw messages from her teacher, the class chat group, and her friends. The word "plagiarism" overwhelmed her.

Her teacher was extremely disappointed in her, saying that he would no longer take her as his student and asking her to find another teacher.

Someone in the class chat group took the lead to text, which was echoed by many: "The plagiarist should get lost! Out of New York University! Out of our class!"

The word "plagiarism" was like a sharp blade, stabbing her heart hard.

She used to be the teacher's most proud student, but now she was accused by everyone as a plagiarist.

Kristen slowly closed her eyes and cried.

No one knew how desperate she was right now.

She thought, I will divorce Trey. I'm tired.

I will no longer be a fool.

I don't owe the Barrett family or Trey.

Kristen took a deep breath and got out of bed. She found a pen and paper to write the divorce papers.

Her marriage with Trey started with a joke, and now it should end with a joke.

Bang!

The bedroom door was kicked open without warning.

Giada Fast and Genesis Whyet rushed in.

Kristen frowned. "What are you doing?"

"What are we doing?

"You disgrace the Barrett family. Mrs. Barrett asks you to get down and kneel."

Giada and Genesis came over, grabbed Kristen's arms, and dragged her out.

"Let go of me!

"I am the daughter-in-law of the Barrett family."

"The daughter-in-law of the Barrett family?

"You are just a woman who disgraces the Barrett family. You are nothing! Move!"
