The 99th Divorce

 Ye Youyou saw the malicious look in Shen Luo’an’s eye and retreated slowly.

Disbelief was clearly displayed on Shen Luo’an’s face. He looked at Ye Youyou coldly as he stalked towards her and said, “I was the only one there apart from Shen Manting. Other than you, who else was there?”

When Ye Youyou heard this, she felt sick to her stomach. She looked at Shen Luo’an and shook her head. “Why won’t you believe me? I didn’t do it! Why would I need to do that? We’ve known each other for 20 years! Shen Luo’an, am I such a person to you?”

No, she wasn’t.

But other than him and Shen Manting, Ye Youyou was the only person present at the scene. Regardless of the circumstances, Shen Manting would never toy with such a situation. That left Ye Youyou as the only suspect!

How could it not be her?

Shen Luo’an stared intently at Ye Youyou, his laughter ringing hollow. “I can’t tell what you’re thinking anymore, Ye Youyou. It must have been so hard for you to be married to me all this time!”

Shen Luo’an’s words carried a hint of sarcasm, and his eyes bore intently into Ye Youyou’s.

Judging from Shen Luo’an’s posture, Ye Youyou knew that this man was livid.

With her back against the cold wall, Ye Youyou watched as Shen Luo’an made his way towards her, his eyebrows knitted together.

“So, you released the recording to the public with every intention of ruining me, isn’t that right?” Shen Luo’an’s expression was getting darker by the moment. His tone became correspondingly firmer as well. “You are a smart person. You knew what the consequences would be once this audio was made public. You wouldn’t even need to lift a finger against Shem Manting. Her grandmother would come to force her home. You’re impressive!”

“It wasn’t me!” Ye Youyou’s yelled out. Her complexion paled. “Shen Luo’an, enough! It wasn’t me! It wasn’t me! It wasn’t me! The recording app on my phone was never even opened! And how would I know what you were going to say? Given the situation that Shen Manting is in at the moment, would I still be human if I publicized the audio? She’s my good friend and your sister at that! How could I do something like that?”

If Ye Youyou had indeed been Shen Manting’s enemy, she would naturally have released the audio upon finding out the disaster it could spell for Shen Luo’an and Shen Manting. After all, it would be Shen Manting’s own fault for being so careless with her own secret.

But this wasn’t the case at all. Ye Youyou was on considerably good terms with Shen Manting. Although she overheard such a secret by mistake and she had entertained the idea of a divorce, she never intended to hurt Shen Manting.

Now with Shen Luo’an questioning her in this manner, Ye Youyou’s heart froze over.

She had spent more than a decade loving this man. But if he had ever felt anything for her in his heart, he would never speak this way to her.

The fact that he could be so aggressive with her was simply evidence that this man did not love her.

When Shen Luo’an heard Ye Youyou’s explanation, he laughed. “Are you sure? Ye Youyou, did you think I wouldn’t know everything? When your parents divorced, you and your sister were fighting to follow your mother because she had become the rich mistress! It’s a good thing your sister gave in to you; otherwise, you wouldn’t be the heiress you are today! Poor sister, she never even knew you betrayed her!”

Ye Youyou’s face lost its color; she couldn’t believe Shen Luo’an would ever say such things to her.
