The crowd couldn't stop gossiping.

"Mr. Huxham is so much better than her ex-husband! Who could argue with that?"

"Mr. Huxham is successful and a man with integrity. Her ex-husband cheated on her and was stingy!"

"Only a fool would still cling to their ex-husband, right?"

After discussing it, everyone reached a consensus. "Seriously, that old lady just claimed Annalise loves her ex-husband? Does she think we are fools?"

Zane took my hand and casually asked, "Isn't it possible that she's trying to make things difficult for you on purpose?"

Zane explained, "Your comics are doing well right now. She might be feeling jealous and want to affect your mindset, making you frustrated every day. That way, you won't be able to make any money. You'll end up depending on a man just like she does."
