Chapter 13 You Get Divorced Today, I'll Marry You Tomorrow

I looked up and saw Ethan. He was dressed sharp in a white shirt, suit pants, and spotless black shoes. He looked fresh and handsome.

"You've got the nerve to be someone else's mistress. Calling others shameless when you're the one wearing that label? That's rich," Ethan said calmly, but his words were cutting. With a casual flick, Vivian stumbled back, barely staying upright with Arthur's help.

Ethan's presence restored my dignity and let me vent my anger. It also made Arthur think I had an affair, which infuriated him.
