Chapter 207 Envy
Kathy was quite irritated so she decided to call her best friend-Betty Zhao.
"Damn it, girl. I thought you left earth! Why didn't I see you recently?"
Kathy lowered her shoulders and said dejectedly, "I didn't leave earth, but I just might."
"Why do you sound so listless? Tell me, did something happen recently?"
Kathy sighed and said in melancholy, "I... I slept with a classmate recently."
"Who? Steven? He is your husband. Isn't it normal that you two doing sex? It's just sex between couples."
"B-but it wasn't with Steven!"
"Damn it! Then who is it? Kathy, how dare you cheat on Steven? Are you going to divorce him or what?" Hearing her friend's loud shouts and insane ramblings, Kathy couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in her head.
"It's not what you think. Let's meet up first! It's not easy to explain all this in just a few words."
"Okay, see you at Times Coffee shop."
Twenty minutes later, Kathy arrived at the coffee shop.
Selecting a photo of Ethan from her phone, she carefully showed it to Betty Zhao and said, "Look, he is from our university."
"Wow! This man is so handsome. You had sex with him?" Looking at Ethan on the phone, Betty Zhao was instantly infatuated.
"Yes." "Having sex with someone so handsome... not bad, definitely not bad. So, who is our mystery boy?"
"He is a clinical major. His name is Ethan Ye," Kathy replied without hiding anything.
"What? Damn it! No wonder he looked so familiar. Turns out, he is Ethan Ye! Good Girl, you are so lucky!" Betty Zhao smiled. "But... What about Steven?"
"He doesn't know." Kathy rolled her eyes at Betty Zhao. "Are you gloating?"
"Haha, how could I? You are my best friend, so what if you slept with him? Ethan is handsome enough that many women want to marry him. How about you divorce Steven and marry him?" Betty Zhao said slowly.
Kathy raised her hand and tossed the straw at Betty Zhao. "Ethan is still a student. How can I even marry him?"
Betty Zhao stretched her hand to grab the flying straw and smiled wickedly. "So, what are you planning on doing?"
Kathy shook her head and said helplessly, "I have no idea what to do next. Otherwise, why would I even call you here? You must help me!"
"Then you have no choice but to divorce!" said Betty Zhao.
"But I'm afraid that my family will beat me to death!" Kathy said with concern, "Besides, Ethan likes Nancy. Do I even have a chance with him?"
"Regardless of your chances with Ethan, your marriage is already over whether you divorce Steven or not. No one knows what the future holds. You gotta give it a shot," said Betty Zhao. "Okay!" Kathy agreed.
That night, she put forward a divorce proposal to Steven. "1 want a divorce!"
To her surprise, Steven immediately agreed, "Divorce is okay, but we have to wait until the Civil Affairs Bureau opens tomorrow. What do you think?"
How could he agree so readily?
Kathy bit her lips as tears swirled in her eyes.
Steven shrugged and sneered, "If you are feeling regret, then it's not too late. I can pretend that I didn't hear anything just now."
Kathy turned around and tried to leave. "I don't regret anything. I always knew marrying you was a mistake."
Something inside Steven ticked when he heard Kathy's answer. He suddenly grabbed her arm and gazed straight in her eyes. As his warm breath softly caressed her face, he said, "Since it was a mistake, you have to pay the price for it, right?"
"What? What do you mean?"
"I invested so much in you and your family. How are you gonna pay me back? The only thing you can pay me back with is your body!"
The next morning, when Kathy woke up, she felt a sharp pain all over her body.
Last night, Steven was like an angry bull. They had the craziest sex of their life last night as Steven wouldn't let her go regardless of how many times she climaxed!
As soon as she came downstairs, the servant handed her a note.
Kathy unfolded it and saw the familiar arrogant writing: I've put the divorce agreement on the table. You just need to sign it.
All of a sudden, Kathy hated herself so much. How stupid she was to marry this rubbish man!
She crumpled the paper and threw it into the trash can. Then she ran into the dining room and quickly signed her name on the divorce agreement.
Her hands and whole body were quivering.
She went back to her room, found her suitcase, opened the wardrobe, and placed all her clothes into the suitcase. Then she left the villa in a hurry.
It was lunchtime when Kathy returned home.
"Kathy, you are back." Wearing an apron, her mother walked up to her with a smile. "Why are you carrying your suitcase? Are you going to live here for a long time?" "I'm not leaving," Kathy replied indifferently.
Her mother, Ivy Fang's face turned cold. "What do you mean, honey?"
"Exactly as it sounds!" Kathy didn't bother to explain.
"Oh, mother, did Kathy divorce Steven?" Edith Zhang, her sister-in-law, came out wearing a facial mask and undisguised mockery.
"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense. My sister isn't stupid enough to divorce Steven." Anthony Jiang, who was watching TV, glared at his wife angrily.
"I... I divorced Steven!" said Kathy.
"Are you crazy?" the entire family said in unison.
"No, I just don't want to live with Steven anymore!" After saying that, Kathy pulled her suitcase and wanted to go back to her room.
However, she was stopped by Anthony Jiang. He grabbed her arm and said solemnly, "Kathy, even if you don't want to live with Steven anymore, how can you forget about us? Ever since our company went bankrupt, it was the Xiao's who kept us protected! If you divorce Steven, how can we even live?"
"Alas, Kathy, you are so thoughtless," Edith Zhang said coldly.
"If you are so thoughtful, then why don't you marry Steven? There is no way I'm marrying him!" Kathy didn't care about anything.
"What's wrong with you?" Edith Zhang straightened her back as if trying to materialize her anger.
"There's something wrong with you!" Kathy retorted.
"Kathy, I have to put it straight. You are not welcome in our family." Edith Zhang held her waist, purporting to drive Kathy away.
"Fine!" After saying that, Kathy took her suitcase and moved into the medical school dormitory.
Ethan had been hiding from her ever since that accident.
But Kathy was finally free.
Therefore, she began to pursue Ethan, fiercely!
Sadly, Ethan paid her no attention.
Instead, Ethan would follow Nancy, just like how Kathy followed him. What a vicious cycle it was!
For so many years, Kathy hated Nancy.
Therefore, when Nancy was with Charles, she was envious of her, but now she felt that it was a blessing.
Kathy yearned to be a part of Ethan's life, but the way he looked at Nancy just made her heart go cold. Kathy shook off the past, picked up a glass of wine and
said to Nancy, "Nancy, let's drink!"
