Left with no choice, I could only cook up an excuse and replied indifferently, “Our personalities clash.”

“Huh?” Being smart as she was, Emery was not convinced. “Are you kidding me? What clash could there be? It’s been ten years. Any sharp edges should’ve been sanded off. Scarlett Stovall, you’d better tell me the truth!”

I knew that she would catch me if I put on an act, so I kept quiet for a while before I came up with an answer. “As you’ve already known, I was kidnapped a while ago. The kidnapper is Ashton’s enemy. I asked him to stop his revenge, but he refuses, so I divorce him. We won’t get back together again.” I tried to appear as indifferent as possible.

Unsurprisingly, my reply was too much for her to take in, so she was obviously stupefied.

After John exposed the scandals of the Ziegler family on Facebook, I thought that you and the Fullers are on the same side… However, why must you opt for divorce since there’s no issue in your relationship? Do you know that you’re just making room for another woman by doing so?”

I found it odd that she had been nervously emphasizing the women around Ashton after she came in.

At first, I thought of telling her the truth, but the fewer people knew about it, the lower the risk, so I could only continue to play along.
