Mrs. Mitchell lost face and scolded Connor before leaving early
Zoe Harper and Connor were directly escorted out by the bodyguards Lucas Sinclair brought
The legendary enviable wedding of the century became Bay City’s biggest joke.
The entertainment weekly that had reported false Information about me was acquired by Pierce Corp. Connor’s affair with Zoe Harper, as well as Zoe Harper’s history of being a mistress, were published on the front page for a whole month.
After learning about Zoe Harper’s misdeeds, Mrs. Mitchell fell seriously III and took several months to barely recover.
As soon as Zoe Harper’s child was born, a paternity test was done immediately.
The results showed no blood relation to Connor. Mrs. Mitchell kicked her out without a second word.
To climb the social ladder, Zoe Harper had frequently skipped classes and violated school rules multiple times. She was expelled from school.
Connor would often come to pester me, always with the same words about how he regretted, how he was wrong, how he would change.
It was neither painful nor itchy. I was tired of hearing it.
It was really annoying.
Soon after, a company abroad sent me an offer.
ぐ
I told Lucas Sinclair about this, frankly saying:
“I want to pursue my own life. I won’t consider marriage again for a while..
“Going abroad this time, I don’t know how many years it will be. Maybe I’ll never come back.
“Lucas Sinclair, you don’t have to wait for me”
I admit Lucas Sinclair was attractive enough.
But life isn’t just about love.
Free from marriage, I have more time to focus on myself.
“I won’t stop you if you want to go abroad, but Aria, I can buy a plane ticket to find you anytime, can’t I?
“Pierce Corp has quite a few multinational businesses too.
“You don’t think going abroad means we’ll be separated forever, never to meet again, do you?”
Lucas Sinclair smiled.
To this, I found myself unable to refute.
After I stopped going to the company, my colleagues would send me updates about Connor almost every day,
in orde
Knowing I had resigned, in order to force out my whereabouts,
Connor even started using his connections to poach quite a few projects from the company.
With profits plummeting sharply they could only lay off staff to protect themselves.
in such a harsh economic winter, Connor’s actions were undoubtedly cutting off the lifelines of innocent people.
“Aria, why don’t you lower your head to Conner? I really don’t want to lose my job”
My former colleague sent me a crying voice message.
Connor’s actions were affecting innocent people. Since the matter started because of me, I couldn’t just sit by and watch.
“You want to start a company?”
Lucas Sinclair raised an eyebrow: “I thought you’d ask me to help you get back at Connor.
“The employees need wages, the boss needs projects. If I start a company, I can solve their problems.
“With Pierce Corp’s support, how could my company be lacking?”
My mother ran off with someone.
People who want
nt to cut ties would find even a bit of association unlucky.
The money from these years and the property division from the divorce was enough to support the company’s operations.
And with a big shot like Lucas Sinclair helping, it would be a waste not to use it
Everyone in Bay City knew that the apple of Lucas Sinclair’s eye had started a company. No one wouldn’t give me some face.
With Lucas Sinclair’s support, my company grew bigger and bigger. I also gained a place in Bay City’s center of power.
Later, I heard that Zoe Harper had gone crazy, strangling her own child to death, cursing it as a useless waste.
Then she drove into Connor, seriously injuring him. His future was truly ruined now.
Connor’s friend personally came to find me, wanting me in on see him.

“Sis, Connor really knows he was wrong. He actually loves you very much, he just couldn’t see his own heart clearly.
“Not seeing his own heart clearly gives him the right to trample on someone else’s heart?
“I’m very busy now, please leave.”
I flipped through the project proposal in my hand, overwhelmed and really had no energy to care about these irrelevant matters.
Many years later, someone asked me about this past. I thought for a while, but the memories had long since blurred.

Lucas Sinclair prepared a building to propose to me.
On Bay City’s tallest skyscraper, his proposal scrolled on the screen.
A warm breeze blew by, and I reached out my hand, letting the person in front of me put on the wedding ring.
Stepping into marriage again required more courage than before.
The road of life is still long. How the future will unfold, we’ll let time prove it.

Life is long, love will always find its way home.
