Why the Crocodile Tears (by Flower Sock) novel Chapter 340

At this point, Anathea’s tightly clenched fingers slowly loosened. She turned her head away, refusing to look at him, “You saw what’s written on it.”

“Divorce Petition” was written plainly there. Why did he even ask?

“Anathea, you’re filing for divorce against me?”

Gregory held the paper in his hand, a full smile gradually forming on his face. But to Anathea, that smile looked as if it came straight from hell–destructive and terrifying.

“And your reason is ‘irreconcilable differences‘?”

Anathea paused as she took a deep breath to calm herself. “Yes.”

This day was bound to come sooner or later. It was only a matter of time. Now that it had come to this, there was nothing left to avoid.

“You’ve really outdone yourself!” Gregory suddenly clenched the paper and tore it into shreds, throwing it into the air. Just like when Anathea gave him the divorce agreement before, the pieces fluttered down, falling all over her.

But this time, Anathea didn’t reach out to catch them, not even instinctively.

She simply brushed the scraps off her lap and said calmly, “I have a backup copy, and I won’t change my reason either.” No matter what, she wasn’t giving up on the divorce.

Her determination made the corners of Gregory’s eyes flush red. “So much for irreconcilable differences.”

Gregory’s eyes were slightly misty, his voice sharp. “No way in hell, Anathea! That reason isn’t valid at all! You really think you can divorce me?”

Anathea took a deep breath. “Why wouldn’t it be valid? According to the law, a woman has the right to file for divorce during pregnancy. And if she’s pregnant with another man’s child, that’s generally considered clear evidence of a broken marriage.” She fought to keep her trembling voice steady, enunciating every word. “I’m carrying someone else’s baby.”

In that instant, everything seemed to freeze.

Cyrus covered his mouth, his eyes wide in shock. Martin was so stunned he forgot to breathe.

“What did you say?” Gregory clenched his fingers into fists, his knuckles turning white.

and no way out for herself. “T

Anathea knew he’d heard her. He was just fooling himself. But she gave him no room for said I’m carrying someone else’s baby. I only ever planned to use you. Everything I told you as a lie.”

“Then, why didn’t you just keep lying? Why stop when you’ve already got the fame and fortune you wanted?” Gregory ground his teeth, his voice shaking.

“Because I got sick of it.” Anathea let out a cold laugh. “Besides, if being with you is the price I have to pay for all this, I’d rather give it all up!”

Suddenly, the car window shattered.

“Mr. Sinclair!” Cyrus shouted, watching as shards of glass tore into Gregory’s hand. Blood poured from the wounds, trickling down his wrist in a shocking stream of red.

He rushed forward, but Gregory barked, “Get the hell away from me!”

Cyrus and Martin had no choice but to back off quickly.
