Sadly, they won't get their wish.

I scanned their expressions and nodded solemnly.

"Now, get a divorce immediately."

Sophia heard what I said and collapsed into Mrs. Reynolds' arms.

She cried and begged Mr. Reynolds and Mrs. Reynolds to keep me.

She said she couldn't live without me, and her son couldn't live without me either.

She wants to be with me forever.

I remain indifferent.

Mr. Reynolds finally said angrily.

"You can divorce, but we don't agree to the divorce conditions you proposed."

"I've already told your parents about this. When they come, we'll discuss how to get a divorce."

After saying that, Mr. Reynolds and Mrs. Reynolds ignored me and walked straight to the sofa, sitting there quietly waiting.

Only Sophia and Daniel were still looking at me expectantly, hoping that I would take back my divorce.

But I remained unmoved and just looked at the door quietly.

Soon, my parents knocked on the door.

But Mr. Reynolds & Mrs. Reynolds were one step faster than me.

They got to the door before me and gave me a look.

It's like saying, I'm dead.

Sure enough, my mother slapped me as soon as she walked in.

"Are you getting brave enough to divorce without discussing it with your parents?"

She looked at Sophia who was crying on the sofa, then reached out and slapped me.

The loud slap silenced the entire living room.

I responded to her with a red and swollen face.

"I said I wanted to leave, and that's it. Even if you come, I won't change my mind."

My mother didn't expect that I would contradict her.

My dad even kicked me down.

"You've really grown up! Not only do you dare to divorce, you even dare to contradict your mother."

As he said this, he was about to hit me.

Sophia quickly stepped in front of me.

"No, Alexander didn't mean it, don't hit him."

Anyone who sees Sophia like this would think that she loves me deeply.

But I felt extremely disgusted.

The way she lovingly protected me made me feel even more disgusted.

I pushed her away.

"Stop being so hypocritical. Even if I were beaten to death today, I wouldn't change my mind about divorcing you."

My cold words stung Sophia.

Daniel stood in front of her.

"Dad, you're crazy! Mom almost got punched by Grandpa because of you, and you actually want a divorce. Are you a cold-blooded animal without any feelings?"

As he spoke, he showed Sophia's swollen ankle, which was sprained because she ran too fast to protect me.

I sneered.

Sophia is really talented.

If I didn't know the truth, I would be deceived by her pretense and lose everything.

When Mr. Reynolds and Mrs. Reynolds saw my parents arrive, they sadly told them what had just happened.

After hearing what they said, my parents looked at me with anger.

"Unfilial son, Sophia and Daniel are so kind to you, how dare you do this?"

I argued impatiently.

"If they were doing this for my own good, why would they leave food in their bowls?"

"Ask them how many times I asked them to change it. Did they listen to me?"

My mother was furious.

"Leftovers? How much leftovers have you had since you were a child? Have you ever counted them yourself?"

"Your father and I never threw you out because of this. Are you using this as an excuse now?"

Seeing that I was silent, my mother continued.

"After all, you and Sophia have been married for so many years. If your living habits are not the same, you should tolerate each other."

"Besides, Daniel is your child. He's just leftovers. If there's anything wrong with that, you should educate him properly."

I blurted out.

"He is not my child. He is not qualified for me to teach him."

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

Sophia was the first to react, she covered her face and cried bitterly.

"I knew you had something on your mind, and you still doubted me."

My parents heard the clue in my words.

"What's the meaning?"

Mr. Reynolds and Mrs. Reynolds looked puzzled, and Daniel immediately knelt beside me.

"Dad, why do you doubt me and Mom? You know it's not like that."

Sophia cried and said that she had broken up with her ex-boyfriend a long time ago.

But my parents were even more confused.

"If that's the case, then what exactly happened?"

I didn't say anything and took this opportunity to forcefully drag Sophia to the Civil Registry Office.

After finishing my business, I immediately left the Civil Registry Office.

"After thirty days, if you get your Divorce Certificate, you will move out of my house immediately. I will have done my best."

After saying that, I took out my phone, sent a message, and left without looking back.

Only Sophia was left crying and Daniel was kneeling there begging me.

A few days later, Sophia brought Daniel and her parents to see me.

The first time she saw me, she handed me the documents in her hand.

"Look, I swear I never betrayed you."

My parents and Mr. Reynolds & Mrs. Reynolds also looked at me.

"This document can prove the relationship between Daniel and you. It is absolutely not false."

Daniel even reached out and grabbed me.

"Dad, you'll know we didn't lie when you see this. I really am your biological son."

I took the document and looked through it under their expectant eyes.

Sophia saw that I looked relieved and was about to speak.

The next second, I tore the document into pieces.

I spoke expressionlessly.

"I said, I just want a divorce, you don't need to give me anything else."

My parents looked at me in shock.

It turns out that I knew the results of the paternity report, but why didn’t I care at all and insisted on getting a divorce?

Sophia's eyes suddenly turned red with tears.

"Since you already knew that I had never betrayed you, why did you do this to me and the child?"

"Is it just because of a leftover rice?"

I met her gaze.

"Yes, that's the reason."

"I just want you to leave with nothing and take him as far away as you can."

Daniel looked at me in disbelief as I abandoned him like a stranger.

Sophia pounced on me and tore my clothes.

"Why do you treat me like this? We have different living habits, shouldn't we be tolerant of each other?"

"Why do you insist that the child and I change? Why do you insist on getting a divorce?"

Her painful cries only stirred endless disgust in my heart.

I let her beat me, remaining unmoved.

"Divorce is the best outcome for us."

After that day, my parents and Mr. Reynolds & Mrs. Reynolds bombarded me with calls to stop me from getting a divorce.

Daniel even knelt at the door of the house I rented day and night.

After my neighbors found out about this, they cursed me in the community group.

I let them point fingers at me and never even glanced at Daniel.

Even though Sophia came to my house several times to beg me, I didn't waver at all.

Because my neighbors came to watch and complain, my story spread quickly.

Soon, the news that I wanted to divorce my wife and children because they left a grain of rice behind during their meal spread throughout the city.

I was branded Weirdo.

Some people even squatted at my doorstep and sent me death threats.

They all supported Sophia in getting a divorce and staying away from me, the perverted scumbag Weirdo.

Only Sophia and Daniel persisted.
