Chapter <b>6 </b>
To be honest, she really knew how to y the victim. []
That pitiful, wounded look could melt anyone’s heart.[]
So Alex didn’t hesitate to roar at me: “Penny, haven’t you made enough of a scene?”]
Veins bulged on his forehead – he’d clearly reached his breaking point. [
“Go home first, give me some time, and I’ll sort this out.“]
See? His choice was always crystal clear: with her around, there was no room for me.]
A familiar chill rose in my chest, but strangely, I felt like a huge weight had finally lifted. []
Yeah, when wasn’t it like this? Every time Tori cried, he’d bark at me like a rabid dog: “You’re beingpletely unreasonable! My patience has limits!“]
“Likewise.” I looked him straight in the eye, my heartpletely dead.[]
I turned to Tori, who was secretly gloating, and started pping.
“Congrattions! The little mermaid finally made it to shore and gets to fly away with her prince. But guess what the ending of this fairy tale will be?“]
Once upon a time, wasn’t I a little mermaid too? []
For love, I cut off my own tail to walk into marriage’s tomb, traded my voice for silent suffering. Every step felt like walking on knives, watching helplessly as my beloved got cozy with someone else.]
But I didn’t want to do this anymore.[]
I pulled out the divorce papers I’d prepared and mmed them in Alex’s face: “Alex, let’s get divorced.“]]
He fumbled to catch them, his pupils contracting when he saw <b>the </b>contents: “Divorce<b>? </b>You want me to walk away with nothing?”
We’d once promised never to mention divorce no matter how bad our fights got – he knew I was serious.
He stumbled forward trying to grab my hands, voice panicked; “Penny, I was just stressed before. That’s my fault. Listen to me exin, don’t divorce me, okay?“]
His voice suddenly stopped, his gaze falling to my abdomen as he froze.[]
“Where’s the baby<b>?</b>” ||
<b>He </b>grabbed my shoulders painfully tight<b>: </b>“I’m asking you! Where’s my baby?“]
I let him shake me, a cold smile spreading across my face: “Morrison, bring it in.“]
I took a cooler from Morrison’s hands and casually threw it on the floor: “Take a look. This is the engagement gift I’m giving

Tori on your behalf.“[]
The box opened. Alex took one look and copsed to <b>the </b>ground. []
He kept asking like a madman: “Why? WHY<b>?</b><b>“</b><b>] </b>
I looked at him expressionlessly, my heart like ashes: “When you jumped in the ocean to save Tori, the baby was already gone.”
I smiled bitterly, correcting myself: “No<b>, </b>it was your and Tori’s baby.<b>“</b><b>[</b><b>] </b>
Alex’s head snapped up, eyes filled with horror: “You… you know everything…“]
He tried to lunge at me, but Morrison kicked him in the chest: “You bastard!“[]
Alex fell backward, his head hitting the floor hard. I
I looked down at him and said word by word.[]
“Alex, remember when yourpany was going bankrupt? My parents borrowed from everyone they knew to help you through it. Later when my dad was dying and needed a kidney transnt, you were on a business trip and wouldn’t even answer your phone.” []
“Only today did I learn that the day my dad died, you were house–hunting with Tori, dropping ten million without blinking.“[]
Hot tears poured down as my hands shook: “I was such an idiot, giving everything to this marriage, helping you seed while my own family fell apart!“]
Finally, I pped him hard across the face.]
“Walking away with nothing is thest bit of dignity I’m giving you!“]
