You Hit My Heart by Kylie Stanford

Chapter 1726: No Return

After finishing her words, Joyce stood up, "Miss Ballard, if your purpose for meeting me today is to force me to sign the divorce papers, then your plan has gone astray." Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She provocatively looked at Athena, "I absolutely won't sign. Even if this divorce agreement was personally brought to me by Luther, it would be the same. Not to mention if it's you who brought it. I am very skilled at dragging things out. You can give it a try, see how long I can drag this on. And whether or not you can afford it. As long as I don't sign, you will remain the mistress. You can drag it out until your looks fade and you have no capital left. You will forever be unable to shake off the identity of a mistress. Why wouldn't I be happy about that?" After finishing her words, a smile blossomed on Joyce's lips, instantly overshadowing everything around her.

Athena was completely stunned, unable to find a reason to retort. From childhood to adulthood, besides Luther, no one could make her back down. Joyce was the second person.

What a formidable tongue she had.

When Athena regained her composure, she realized she was seething with anger.

She couldn't tolerate being in a disadvantageous position.

She thought and thought, finally finding her counterattack, “I didn't expect you to have such thick skin. You insist on clinging to the Warner family. Brother Luther doesn't love you anymore, what's the point of forcing yourself on him? Let me tell you, even if you don't sign, I have other ways, and I can resort to legal procedures. You won't eat the wedding feast but you'll get the wedding punishment. When the divorce comes, you'll leave with nothing, no assets, no dignity. Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. If you're sensible, you'll sign now. I will talk to him and make sure he gives you more alimony.”

Joyce leisurely picked up the black coffee in front of her. She calmly added sugar and cream, adjusting it to her taste. Only then did she take a gentle sip.

Athena suddenly stood up, unable to bear it any longer, "Are you trying to delay the matter, meaninglessly? You're just a abandoned woman, accept your fate. I am the one who will spend my life with Brother Luther!"

Joyce drank her coffee and suddenly looked up.
