Before I could react, a huge force hit me. I lost my balance and fell to the ground.
Edward rushed over angrily, stood in front of Brittany and glared at me. Behind him,
Brittany had an smug expression on her face.
“Grace, get back home! You are such a disgrace!”
Edward wanted to continue speaking, but was stopped by Brittany. She sat weakly on the ground and said to Edward.
“Edward, Grace probably didn’t mean it. Please don’t let me affect your relationship.”
Edward turned around and looked at me, with

his eyes full of anger and disdain.
“Grace, I know you don’t trust me, but there’s no need for you to follow me.
“I should realize before that you are this kind of person…”

Looking at Edward’s face filled with
indignation, I immediately guessed something.
“You haven’t been back home these two days, right?” I asked Edward calmly.
He was stunned for a moment, stammering and not saying anything else.
Seeing that I was not coming back for a long time, Adrian called my name in the corridor and quickly ran towards the crowd.

Edward’s face turned gloomy.
Just as Adrian rushed over to help me,
Edward slowly uttered a few words, “What a bitch…”
Adrian was angry and wanted to argue with him, but I stopped him.
I shook my head frantically at Adrian.
Until now, I no longer wanted to be entangled with Edward. I just wanted to leave here as soon as possible and leave everything behind.
My body became weak. Adrian supported me and walked towards the ward.
After walking a few steps, I didn’t hear the curse I imagined, so I looked back.
Edward, who was standing behind us, held

Brittany in his arms with a concerned look on
his face. Everyone might think they were a couple.
Seeing that my physical condition was so bad, Adrian refused to let me be discharged from the hospital and asked me to stay in the hospital with peace of mind.
A few days later, Adrian helped me find a lawyer friend to give me advice and discuss filing for divorce.
Suddenly, I received a call from Edward.
“Go home tonight and discuss the divorce.”
Before I could say anything, he hung up the phone.
Thinking that I could finally break up with

Edward, my mood became better.
I quickly returned home with the divorce agreement printed out by the lawyer.
But as soon as I walked in, I was surprised to find the room was full of people.
Edward’s parents and Brittany were all at home.
Looking at their unfriendly expressions, I immediately understood what Edward meant.
I lowered my head and sent a message to Edward on my phone. [We are all adults. Is it necessary to play these clumsy tricks?]
But Edward didn’t reply to me. Instead, he came out of the kitchen carrying two plates of food.

He warmly invited everyone to sit down and eat, but everyone’s expression was serious, especially my mother–in–law.
As early as when we were dating, she was particularly opposed to the marriage between me and Edward.
I once accidentally saw the chat records between Edward and his mother.
She said, “Grace is a bastard without parents. Now she can’t even have children. What’s the point of having her?”
At that time, Edward would fight against his mother. Now, looking at Edward sitting next to Brittany with an especially bright smile, I suddenly felt nauseous.
As expected, not long after everyone sat

down, Edward’s mother took the lead in
making trouble.
“Brittany, how can these men be so
shortsighted? You are still single. I think they are just bewitched.” Edward’s mother glared at me fiercely.
“Especially those evil women who are
unfaithful to their husbands and have vicious intentions. They are really…”
