Kayden’s eyes flickered with shock and fear.
He stared at Lyra, a sly grin spreading across her face.
To Kayden, she looked like the devil herself when she smiled.

He instinctively stepped back, his eyes quickly reddening, gleaming with a wild, dangerous light–like a beast on the hunt.
“Who… who are you? How do you even know about this?” Kayden stammered, panic rising in his voice.
Back when he was flat broke, he really did resort to stealing.
It was years ago–he’d nearly forgotten all about it, but Lyra just brought those memories flooding back.
He hated working–never made any real money, and always had to deal with all the hassle.
Back then, his mom was the one making money and supporting him.
But after his mom got older, he married Kendall, and life got way easier.
So why would I ever end up in jail?‘ Kayden wondered.
His eyes darted around in panic, unable to meet Lyra’s gaze.
Lyra sneered, “Who I am isn’t important. Today, there’s only one thing you need to do–sign the divorce papers and make it easy for yourself.
‘Mrs. Brett works with us, and as her colleagues, we’re not just going to sit back and do nothing.
Those cops downstairs? If you don’t sign, I’ll call them up right now. That old lady you messed up years ago is still lying in the hospital, and all those millions in medical bills? They’ll be dumped right on you.”
Lyra caught the way Kayden shivered, fear written all over him.
A sly smile flickered in Lyra’s eyes, her gaze sharp and calculating.
Kendall was completely shocked–she never knew about this.
“Lyra, are you serious? He was a thief?” Kendall stammered, her voice trembling with disbelief.
Kendall just couldn’t accept it. ‘What kind of man did I end up marrying?
How could I have been so blind, letting this man make a fool out of me all this time? Kendall thought.
Seeing Kendall’s dumbfounded look, Lyra didn’t bother sugarcoating it. “Mrs. Brett, before Mr. Brett ever inarried you. he actually broke into someone’s house,
“He ended up hurting an old lady during the whole mess, and she’s still lying in the hospital to this day
The cops couldn’t find any proof, but I managed to dig it up myself
Lyra gave Kayden a cold, thin smile, her gaze distant and unfeeling.

Truth was, she didn’t have any real evidence.
She’d just snooped through Kayden’s phone and found out the truth.

When people do something they’re ashamed of and have no one to confide in, they often hide their secrets in places no one else would ever think to look.
Kayden had stashed this secret on his phone, and he’d even tried to delete it.
But he didn’t wipe it clean, and that tiny clue was all Lyra needed to uncover the whole story from back then.
That old lady wasn’t even in the hospital anymore. Lyra was just bluffing to freak Kayden out.
This guy was a shameless jerk–if she didn’t get him to sign the divorce papers today, getting rid of him later would be a otal nightmare.
Kendall had signed a five–year contract with the company.
yra had to dig so deep because Kendall was locked into a five–year contract with the company. Kayden was just greedy and hameless.
Kayden didn’t dare talk back anymore. He kept his mouth shut and signed the divorce papers, not even trying to fight for he house.
Kendall could finally breathe easy when she saw him sign.
Finally divorced, Kendall thought, relief flooding through her.
Kayden…” Naomi stared at her son, stunned. ‘How could I not know about this?‘ she thought.
ust the thought of Kayden ending up in jail made all that tough talk from before vanish in an instant.
Now, all she could do was look at him with worry–Kayden was her whole world.
Kayden frowned at Kendall, his eyes filled with unwillingness and frustration. ‘Without Kendall, what am I supposed to do now?‘ he thought.
But aside from this house, Kendall was basically broke.
As for the house, he’d just find a way to snatch it back someday. Once that thought hit him, Kayden’s mood did a complete
Kendall, go ahead and divorce me–just don’t come crying to me when you regret it!” Kayden spat.
He’d rather lose the house than end up in jail. ‘I can always figure out a way to get it back later, Kayden thought.
Kendall looked at that sorry excuse for a face and sneered, “Regret? Not a chance. The only thing I ever truly regretted was marrying you.”
