Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 56

Chapter56 He's Getting Back at Me

The argument blared through the bug, mixed with the sound of Vivian throwing things.

"Get away from me! I don't want to see you," Vivian's voice was sharp, showing she was recovering well.

"Vivian, please don't be mad. I was wrong. We can have another wedding, and I'll make it up to you," Arthur pleaded, a tone he never used with me.

"Another wedding? Do you think I haven't been humiliated enough? I went through so much with the pregnancy and lost my child, and you think you can make up for that pain?" "I'm sorry, Vivian. We can have another child."

Vivian scoffed, "Arthur, who do you think you are? Don't even think about touching me again, not even a finger."

"Vivian, please forgive me. I don't want this to happen either."

"Pleading won't help. I'm definitely getting a divorce, and you can forget about staying at Benevolence Hospital."

I reflected, 'Arthur actually pleaded with Vivian. He used to be so proud.'

Ethan, who had been asleep, suddenly turned over and instinctively wrapped his arm around me. Even though I was wearing headphones, I felt a bit guilty and quickly turned off the bug.

Listening to Ethan's steady breathing, I felt an inexplicable sense of calm and lucky to have such a wonderful partner.

As for Arthur, after doing such a cruel thing, I wondered if he felt any regret now. This was karma.

My phone buzzed again, but thankfully it didn't wake Ethan. I picked it up and saw a message from Seagull: [Emmy, I'm in the process of handing over my work. I'll be back in Starlight City in at most half a month. Looking forward to seeing you!]

I thought, 'Seagull is really coming back.'

I replied: [Welcome back.]

We had been close for so many years, yet I had never met him.

I didn't know why Seagull chose to sponsor me back then, but whatever the reason, I was grateful to him. Although nervous, I still looked forward to meeting him.

The next morning, Ethan woke up earlier than I did. By the time I finished washing up and went downstairs, I heard noises from the kitchen. When I reached the kitchen door, I found him making breakfast.

"I woke up late, but it's perfect timing to see you being such a gentleman," I teased, leaning against the doorframe and yawning.
