Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1039

Before Bella could finish her sentence, Sebastian shoved her arm away, his face thunderous.

He had just torn his gaze away from Lillian, and now she was already heading through the university gates. He hadn't even managed to say a single word to her, and the panic was starting to claw at his chest.

To top it off, Bella was deliberately stirring up trouble, and he absolutely refused to tolerate it.

Shoving her aside, he didn't spare her a shred of dignity. Right in front of the flashing cameras, he coldly stated, "Divorce proceedings are currently underway. Please stop misleading the public."

The moment the words left his mouth, a shockwave ripped through the press.

"Divorce? Mr. Blake, can you elaborate on that?"

Bella was utterly blindsided. She never expected Sebastian to be this ruthless, tearing away every last ounce of her pride in front of the media.

Regardless of anything else, they were legally married. They were supposed to maintain at least a façade of civility in public.

Yet, he hadn't given her an inch.

He had just announced to the world that they were getting a divorce.

Bella had put immense effort into her appearance today. The few days of rest had brought some color back to her face, and her meticulous styling made her look genuinely striking. But Sebastian hadn't even spared her a glance.

Her emotional stability was already hanging by a thread. With everything falling apart and her finances stretched thin, going to such great lengths only to be publicly humiliated was the final straw.

Throwing all sense of decorum out the window, she screamed at him, "Divorce?! Keep dreaming, Sebastian! Unless you have a fifty billion dollar settlement ready to hand over, don't even think about a divorce. I will never sign the papers. I will never agree!
