Chloe turned her head as she listened to him, and in an instant, her face went pale.
“I’m the one who wants the divorce the most! If you really think I’m embarrassing the Shawn family, then just sign the divorce papers and let me go. That way, the Shawn family won’t be dragged down by me. Besides, if I embarrass the Shawn family, it’s nothing compared to you. You better watch your step and not get caught by Grandpa while cozying up with Lucy. When he gets mad, don’t blame me,” she said.
Michael was left speechless by her words.
But Chloe seemed to have a switch flipped. She wouldn’t stop, “Captain Shawn, you’re married yet cozy with other women. I just went out for drinks with friends, and suddenly it’s at disgrace to the Shawn family. You’re obviously targeting me on purpose.”

“Chloe, don’t push it!” Michael’s voice dropped to a dangerous. whisper.
Hearing the anger in his voice, Chloe let out a chuckle.
“Seriously? You’re the one being unreasonable here, yet you’re mad at me? Is it because I asked for the divorce first? Or, Captain Shawn, could it be that you can’t let me go? Is that why. you’ve been stalling?”
Michael froze, his expression turning icy.
