Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 222

**When the Stars Forgot to Return My Wishes**
**Chapter 222**

Autumn’s fury simmered just beneath the surface, a tempest waiting to erupt. The evidence of betrayal lay bare before them, yet they insisted on tarnishing her reputation. How could they be so blind to the truth?

Nearby, a janitor diligently mopped the floor, her presence a stark reminder of the mundane world outside this chaos. Autumn’s eyes narrowed as she seized the bucket resting at her side, the cool water reflecting her anger. In a swift motion, she hurled its contents directly at Hector, the splash catching him off guard.

Before he could muster a response, she pivoted toward the woman, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Excuse me, do you mind if I borrow this mop for a moment?” Without waiting for an answer, she snatched it from the janitor’s hands, her heart pounding with adrenaline.

With a fierce swipe, she brought the mop across Hector’s mouth, fury igniting her words. “Since your mouth seems to be a source of filth, let me help you clean it up. Perhaps then, you’ll think twice before spewing your nonsense.”

“Hector, you and I are done. Whatever I do from now on is none of your concern,” she continued, her voice steady, yet laced with venom. “What gives you the right to waltz in here and hurl insults at me? All I did was switch rooms with Ethan, and you both turn it into a circus act.”

With that, she swung the mop again, the bristles catching Simon as well, leaving the two brothers looking like beaten strays, their faces smeared with the remnants of her wrath. She felt a strange sense of satisfaction at their disheveled state, a reflection of how she felt inside.

Autumn’s eyes glinted with cold disdain as she confronted them. “Since you only seem to acknowledge Luna, why even bother coming after me? Is your desperation really that profound?”

“I told you long ago—when you chose not to attend Mom’s memorial, that was it for us. But you never listen, do you? So let me clarify things for you: who cut ties with whom? It was I, Autumn, who put an end to this. Not you. Do you understand?”

It was infuriating how these two fools charged at her without a shred of inquiry, twisting her actions into the most disgraceful of assumptions. A simple question could have unraveled the misunderstanding, yet they preferred to humiliate her instead.

How far they had fallen from the brothers she once sought to impress, now reduced to mere shadows of their former selves. They weren’t even worth the attention she would give a stranger.

Autumn shot her a frosty look, her voice dripping with irony. “Oh? Now you’re calling me sister? How amusing. Just the other night at dinner, you were addressing me as Miss Lewis. Tell me, who were you trying to impress with that charade? Would you like me to explain it to them for you?”

Luna was yet another fool who lacked the sense to keep her mouth shut. If she hadn’t shown up, Autumn might have forgotten about her entirely. Instead, she stood there, a constant annoyance.

As fate would have it, the janitor passed by with another bucket of water, and without a second thought, Autumn seized it, flinging it straight at Luna.

“Ah!” Luna shrieked, her body trembling as the cold water drenched her, her carefully applied makeup running down her face, creating a pitiful and laughable sight.

Still unsatisfied, Autumn lifted the mop once more, swiping it across Luna’s mouth with the same force she’d used on Hector. The scene was chaotic yet oddly cathartic, leaving Autumn feeling momentarily liberated from the weight of their judgment.
