Chapter 2
"What?" Xavier was slightly furious. "I've spent hundreds of thousands on her. Are you expecting me to seek your approval? Did you ever bother to do the math when the Joyner family reaped billions from me?" Although their marriage was kept secret, Lily knew full well that her family had continuously siphoned resources from him after their marriage.
However, she couldn't comprehend it. "That's different! We're husband and wife. How could she ever compare to me?"
"You're the one who can't compare to her!" The disdain in his eyes was like a barbed blade, stabbing deep into Lily's heart before it was wrenched out. "The money I spent on her yesterday was merely a fraction of her accomplishments. How could you possibly measure up?"
Her heart instantly felt as if it was bleeding and utterly shattered.
The indifference in his eyes was something she had never seen before.
The man who had once lost control in her embrace in bed and whispered sweet nothings in her ears seemed like a stranger to her now.
"Why didn't you marry her instead of me if she's such a wonderful person?" Her voice quivered as tears welled up in her eyes. "Didn't you choose me because you loved me?"
Lily's vision slowly blurred with tears. She could only make out the hazy outline of his face, but the indifferent look on his face was unmistakable. She could see it very clearly.
It was as if he was mocking her innocence and foolishness to believe that he ever loved her.
Xavier's face darkened with impatience. "Are you done talking?"
An irrational woman was beyond reason to him. He walked past her and continued to head upstairs.
His avoidance was the final blow that shattered the last remnants of her composure.
"Let's get a divorce!" She subconsciously closed her eyes as the words escaped her lips. She had mustered every ounce of her strength to say them.
A marriage without love was not something she wanted!
Xavier never dragged Sarah into the conversation and attributed all their issues to her unreasonable behavior. She didn't need to show him the video as it wouldn't change anything.
