Please Let Me Go, My Contracted Ex-Husband.

He married the daughter of the Lancaster family purely for revenge. He expected her to be obedient and submissive, not to resist or show emotions—a perfect pawn in his plan for vengeance. However, when his gaze locked onto the third daughter of the Lancaster family, the one who barged into the living room was her—disheveled and stained with blood. She seemed ordinary, but beneath the surface, she hid an unknown sharpness. "Do you love me?" he asked coldly. "You're crazy!" she rolled her eyes in disdain. In that moment, he smiled with satisfaction, believing he had everything under control. But she fought back. Marrying him was merely one step in her own plan. Four years later, with the Lancaster family completely destroyed, she threw the divorce papers in his face, smiling like the final victor: "Albert Wilson, have you finished using me? Thank you for making me think I once loved you. Now, never see me again, even in death." Just as she turned to leave in triumph, she accidentally walked into a gang's arms deal, and an explosion forever separated her from him. It was only when he found the two-month pregnancy test result among her belongings that he realized he had lost the only salvation of his life.

Chapter 42- Come with me

Cynthia thought he wouldn't let this go so easily. He'd definitely investigate every website and newspaper overnight. She warned Bonnie to be careful and told her if the higher-ups forbade them from publishing, she shouldn't push the issue and cause trouble.

After all the commotion, Doreen Lancaster had no mood left for drinking. She left, sobbing, following her agent, leaving the large private room empty except for Cynthia and him.

The atmosphere felt stifling. Cynthia lowered her head, silently reciting the verses from the *Book of Songs* that Mistress Extinction insisted they memorize: "The osprey sings, from the river's isle. Fair and graceful is the lady; a noble match." She repeated the lines over in her mind.

He stood there, silently staring at her, and Cynthia's scalp tingled under his piercing gaze, feeling as though it could burn a hole into her head. She even had the unsettling feeling that he already knew she had orchestrated the entire incident.
