Facade of Love

Chapter 99 Fighting for a Chance for Me and Idris

I shook my head and spoke softly. “I won’t go back on the promise I made to you. I just want to understand the reason why you want me and Idris to divorce.”

She cooled her expression, showing little patience, and said, “I’ve told you before. The granddaughter–in–law of the Youngs must be pure and clean. Your father’s deception years ago angered me greatly. If it weren’t for your relatively well–behaved conduct in the Youngs over the past two years, I wouldn’t have let the matter go. Of course, that’s not the only reason. Yvette, you know better than I do that the current Scott Corporation is of no help to the Youngs. On the contrary, it might even burden the Youngs. Without your father, it won’t be easy for you to keep it afloat. Idris‘ wife must add luster to the Youngs and cannot become a burden. Besides, Iddy doesn’t have much affection for you. Do you understand now?”

In essence, the Scott Corporation no longer offered any benefit to the Young Corporation. Madam Young, a shrewd businesswoman, had clearly calculated everything.

After listening to her, I remained silent for a while before speaking calmly. “If I can clear my name from the events five years ago and ensure that the Scott Corporation doesn’t become a burden to the Youngs, will you still force me to divorce Idris?”

She paused slightly while pouring tea, and glanced at me. There was a trace of surprise on her aged face. “Are you implying you don’t want to divorce Iddy?”

I did not directly answer her question but instead said, “Grandma, this is what I found out at the hospital today.”
