After All the Hurt, She Chose Herself novel Chapter 90

Gideon also looked at Aria.

Right. If it was as the old man said, and Aria wasn’t after his status or position, then she should sign an agreement.

If they divorced, all assets under her name would belong to Gideon.

That would make her story somewhat believable.

This time, without waiting for the old man to respond, Eveline went straight to the study, printed out an agreement, and quickly shoved it in front of Aria.

Her expression was condescending. “Since you’re not after the money, then hurry up and sign it!”

Aldous Evernight didn’t want Gideon and Aria to divorce, so he remained silent on the matter, as if giving his tacit approval.

Aria looked at the words on the agreement stipulating she would “leave the marriage with nothing” and felt an urge to laugh.

“Aria, if you sign this agreement, I’ll believe you love me.”

Love him?

Aria had said it countless times and shown it in countless ways.

But now, she didn’t love him anymore.

Aria decisively drew a large ‘X’ across the agreement.

“Gideon, how dare you hold me to such a high standard?”

“You’ve been as cold as ice to me for three years of marriage, you’re keeping a lover on the side, and now you demand I leave with nothing? You’re quite the calculator, aren’t you?”

So she didn’t dare to sign.

Gideon’s eyes filled with even more scorn. “Then why don’t you admit you only married me for the Evernight family’s money? Aria, no matter how desperately you cling to me, I won’t give you a single penny.”

“That’s right, son,” Eveline chimed in. “A useless, infertile woman like you thinks she’s entitled to the family fortune?”

Furious, Aldous Evernight slammed his cane on the floor. “Quiet! Both of you, be quiet! Is this how you treat Aria?”

Aldous Evernight couldn’t believe how cruel Gideon and Eveline were being to Aria.

In that moment, his blood pressure shot up, and his whole body fell backward.
