Chapter 517
Whenever Natalie saw Jeremy, she couldn’t help but recall the scene of him
with Annabelle.
“Natalie, you’re my wife,” Jeremy reminded her.
Natalie’s eyes reddened, and she tightly bit her lip. “Jeremy, we’re already preparing for divorce. I don’t want to see you. Do you even realize how much I hate you? Did you ever think about the fact that you had a wife when you cheated?”
Jeremy had shattered everything. He had turned their love into a joke. Yet now, he acted as if none of it had happened. He even refused to agree to a divorce. Natalie couldn’t fathom what he was clinging to.
“I’m giving you your freedom. You can be with other women. Why do you need to fool around behind my back?”
Listening to Natalie’s increasingly unreasonable words, Jeremy replied in a deep voice, “My affair with Annabelle was an accident. I won’t be with any other woman, Nath. I can’t divorce you.”
Even now, Jeremy couldn’t understand himself. He didn’t love Annabelle, yet he couldn’t control himself at a crucial moment. He had indeed betrayed Natalie, but he couldn’t just let go.
“An accident?” Natalie scoffed. She smirked at Jeremy’s causal use of “an accident” to downplay his affair.
Natalie felt increasingly air.
about who Jeremy was.
“Let’s go home,” Jeremy said in a low voice.
Natalie’s face turned pale. She felt a chill run through her. She pushed away Jeremy, who was approaching her. “I hope you agree to divorce soon! Jeremy, I can’t forgive you.”
She hurriedly hailed a cab by the roadside and gave the driver her apartment’s address.
Jeremy stood frozen in place. His spine stiffened as he stared at the cab disappearing into the distance. It took him a long time to snap out of it.
He hadn’t gotten into his car. He took out a cigarette and lighted it slowly.
Smoke rings were exhaled one after another.
He looked somewhat dejected.
Seeing this from the driver’s seat, Victor couldn’t fathom it. Given Jeremy’s deep love for Natalie, Victor wondered how he could have had an affair.
Jeremy was trying to win Natalie back now. Victor doubted Natalie would forgive Jeremy so easily.
Just as they entered Galaxy Villa, Joe received a call.
Faintly, Skylar heard Rowan’s laughter on the other end of the line.
Rowan said, “Andrew actually posted another update on Instagram, apologizing specifically to Skylar. Many people are asking what exactly happened.
“Although Skylar’s name wasn’t mentioned, he self–analyzed where he went wrong. It’s hilarious! I heard Mr. Hughes Senior personally slapped him, and his face swelled up from it.‘

Joe’s tone carried a cold edge. “Anyone who dares to touch what’s mine must have some nerve.”
Skylar’s heart skipped a beat when she heard him calling her his. She glanced back at Joe.
Joe also looked at her.
When their gazes met, Joe’s deep and distant eyes quickly withdrew.

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
