The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce

She had always been obedient and docile in their three years of hidden marriage, watching as he surrounded himself with women and was mired with endless scandals. On the day the subject of his unrequited love returned to the country, she quietly handed him a divorce agreement. “What, you have someone you like?” he asked coldly. She smiled nonchalantly. “Yes. You may not acknowledge me as your wife, but someone will acknowledge me as their lover.” Later, as the Thompson family acknowledged their connection, she became a rich daughter who was out of his reach. As men flocked around her, Michael Gallagher realized that in those three years, she had planted the seeds of love that had now grown into a towering tree, binding him for life.

Chapter 241: Survive First, Say Later

"I... I didn't want to come either, my friend brought me here." Gillian explained briefly, "Second Brother, is my leg broken again?"

Joshua's breath hitched in his chest.

He glanced at her leg and sighed softly, giving a slight nod, "The doctor said you need to change your prosthetic. I've already taken a leave for you from school, but this happening right at the beginning of the term, the headmaster is very displeased with you."

Gillian bowed her head in shame.

She dared not tell Joshua the truth, nor let him seek justice for her.

The incident with Jeremy Norman, she could only swallow hard, daring not to mention to anyone.

At the Leaford family banquet, the atmosphere was still lively. People gathered in small groups, discussing their own interesting topics, and no one noticed this little episode.

Gillian's trouble, because of having been discovered by Joshua in time, did not have significant consequences.
