Theo had to go out for a while, and when he left, I sat o n the sofa to read a book.
I stopped when I grew tired. It was already the middle of the night.
Theo had not come back yet and I figured he would probably not come back anymore, so I went to the bedroom to sleep.
The next morning, I took Munchkin to the kindergarten.
When it was almost noon, there were a bunch of notifications on my phone. After looking at the headlines, I quickly tapped one of them to read.
Serena had been forced out. She contacted the media and said that the reason why Theo forced her out was that I had seduced him, that was why she was abandoned. In any case, she made up a bunch of nonsense and went to the top floor of Grant Corporation's building to jump to her death.
I went from being a divorced couple of many years with Theo to a publicly-known licentious woman who would not stop pestering Theo for money.
Some even went as far as saying that Theo and Cindy would have gotten married if it were not for me. They
said that I was the one sowing dissension between them.
Theo's identity was extraordinary, so naturally, the scandal was caught by the media who then made a big deal out of it. From what they were saying in the news reports, Theo and I shared a hideous past-one that was unbearable to hear about.
Perhaps I had experienced the same thing a long time ago, so even though I was very angry, I was still able to tolerate it.
However, I had neglected Munchkin. Theo and I had gone to the kindergarten to pick Munchkin up together, so most parents knew that he was Theo's son.
If they went home and discussed this, their children would no doubt overhear them. Adults’ words and deeds could affect a child. With that, Munchkin would be harmed by other children's words when he was at school.
On this day, I received a call from the kindergarten teacher saying that Munchkin harmed a child and they were at the hospital. They asked me to go over immediately.
I rushed to the hospital and learned what had happened when I was there. I grew extremely furious.
