“Oh? Getting mad because you’re embarrassed? I thought if you were bold enough to force the wife to divorce, you’d already thrown your shame out the window.”

“Girl, life is short. You could be anything, yet you chose to be a mistress.”

Zoey was shouted down, one line after another.

Sheltered all her life by her parents and Alfred, she’d never faced anything like this. Her face went pale with rage.

Unable to argue back, she turned her anger on the indifferent Nella standing nearby.

Nella shrugged and smiled at her.

“Should I close my eyes instead?”

“Pfft!”

Someone in the crowd couldn’t hold back and laughed.

“Alfred really went to a lot of trouble,” Nella murmured softly, looking up at the sky.
