Chapter 491: Joaquin's Fury

Susan shook her head. "It's too late to file for a real divorce now. After all, it's just a statement. We can forge a divorce certificate and backdate it. All they care about is the result-who's going to dig deeper? Besides, this is ultimately between the two of us and has nothing to do with anyone else. If I weren't a public figure, why would I need to explain myself to anyone?"

"Fine. You handle this. I want the news suppressed within three days," Hayden said coldly.

"I'll do my best."

At this point, she and Hayden were already on the same boat. Just then, Hayden's phone rang. The screen lit up with the word "Grandpa." His expression changed instantly, and he reluctantly picked up.

"You still remember I'm your grandfather? Are you trying to kill me with anger?! That scandal she stirred up last time wasn't enough? And now this! Do you have any idea how much disgrace you've brought to our family? Both of you, get back here immediately!"

"Yes, Grandpa. We'll return right away."

Hayden hung up the phone. The thing he dreaded most had come to pass. "Get up. We're going home."
