"Is there any other way?"
"Another method would be..." The lawyer paused and looked towards Nan Yuling, then said very seriously, "Mr. Nan takes the initiative to file for divorce."
"..." Su Xingyue was speechless. Wasn't that stating the obvious?
If Nan Yuling were willing to initiate the divorce, would she even need to be here?
"You may all leave now," Nan Yuling's cold voice interrupted.
"Yes!" The lawyers nodded, then swiftly left the room.
In the room, only Su Xingyue and Nan Yuling remained.
The atmosphere... became somewhat strange, eerily silent.
Standing still, Su Xingyue was stunned for quite a while, her mind full of what the lawyer had just said.
Her only option now was to make Nan Yuling initiate the divorce...
Although she knew it was impossible, Su Xingyue couldn't help but harbor a sliver of hope as she looked at Nan Yuling.
After all, she was left with no other choice!
"Mr. Nan, you're so handsome and dashing, tall and mighty, with just a wave of your hand you could have thousands of beautiful women lining up to be your wife... I'm just the illegitimate daughter of the Mo Family, if this becomes known to the public, it would damage your reputation, so why not just divorce me..."
"Impossible!" She hadn't finished her sentence when Nan Yuling's cold voice cut her off.
"Why?" Su Xingyue was on the verge of a breakdown...
She didn't understand why it had to be her...
"You were chosen by the old man on his deathbed." He told her expressionlessly, his voice devoid of emotion, but easily extinguishing all the hope in her heart...
"..."
This answer caught Su Xingyue off guard but also suddenly made sense.
That's why, even if she had run away from the wedding and made him lose so much face, he still wouldn't divorce her.
Turns out it was the command of an elder...
But what puzzled her even more was when she had offended the Nan Family patriarch?
Why would he, on his deathbed, designate her to be his grandson's wife and ruin her life?
Yet, in her memories, there were no traces of the old Mr. Nan.
She had never even met the old man!
After pondering for a long time, Su Xingyue decided to play her trump card!
She gritted her teeth and suddenly threatened him, "If you don't want a divorce, then don't blame me for being heartless and cruel!"
As her voice fell, Nan Yuling, who was holding a wine glass, paused momentarily, then looked at her with interest.
"Hmm?"
He was quite curious to see how she planned to be heartless and cruel to him!
She had a face that was utterly clean, yet she put on a fierce expression as if she was going to devour someone—it was incredibly ridiculous...
Such an expression was completely out of character for her!
It was like a little white rabbit wearing a wolf's skin, trying to scare away its enemies.
...
Su Xingyue had intended to frighten him, but the man's calm demeanor made her feel helpless...
Clearly, her threat was of no use to him.
Indeed, how could a man, who entered the business world at sixteen and had seen grand scenes, be frightened by such threats.
Even so, Su Xingyue still tried her best to maintain her momentum and not lose face!
"Aren't you afraid that I might take you out when you're not paying attention?" she gritted her teeth and continued boldly.
After all, she was already in this state, her life ruined, so there was nothing left to fear!
"You're contemplating murdering your own husband?" The man frowned, his eyes flashing with an amused look.
