Starting with A Divorce

Chapter 618

Chapter 618 I Pity You

Faced with Kaliyah’s threats, Waston showed no fear. Instead, smirking, she said, “Okay, if you dare, will you hurt my face regardless of the consequences?”

At that moment, Kaliyah, who had been vicious, showed a rare expression of fear. Looking into Waston’s eyes again, she found the type of coldness she couldn’t comprehend. Waston was not afraid or even nervous at all.

She had only seen such emotion from Irene and Ainsley.

The dagger in Kaliyah’s hand trembled twice, and cold light reflected on Waston’s face. She put the dagger in front of the latter’s face and gestured wildly. “Do you think I won’t dare?”

She gulped and didn’t believe that Waston was really not afraid at all. The latter was the daughter of the Glover family and was used to attending various banquets and parties, the very definition of a well- off young lady. Not to mention, Kaliyah knew that Waston liked Matteo.

She sneered, “I know about your relationship with Matteo. Even if the engagement was only a rumor, the relationship was never that simple. In fact, you want Matteo to give up the shares of the Wade Group for you, right? But without your looks, even if you give up your shares and try your best to save yourself, it’s still unclear whether he’ll accept you.”

She looked at Waston inquisitively. She should feel fear after hearing these words, right?

However, surprisingly, Waston was still staring at Kaliyah expressionlessly. There was not even a trace of fear on her face, and she looked at Kaliyah with contempt.

“I feel extremely sorry for you for saying such words. I pity you,” said Waston.

Kaliyah sneered in confusion. “Pity me? We’re in such different situations now. Why would you pity me?”

Waston continued, “I really don’t know what you’ve gone through for you to say such ignorant words. I know you. I heard you resolutely went abroad to study after being accepted into a foreign school. At that time, I thought you were very courageous. But I didn’t expect that after you married, you would abandon your former self and speak so abashedly about being accepted without looks.”

Kaliyah was stunned. “I…”

“Kaliyah, what made you become like this? Beauty is never a measure of a woman’s worth. If Matteo likes me but refuses to accept me because I’m disfigured, then I’ll only be glad because I won’t accept him either.” Waston’s eyes shone brightly.

Looking at Waston, Kaliyah suddenly felt heartbroken. Yes, she used to be full of light all over. At that time, she was charming from head to toe.

When did it start to change?

Perhaps it was when she saw Cason again after returning to the country. She had seen how Ainsley silently devoted everything behind Cason, but she still couldn’t resist his smile.

The inexplicable vanity and pleasure from the bottom of her heart gradually engulfed her, and she progressively changed her revenge into marrying Cason.

It was said that, after marriage, women would be worn down and lose all their personality and sparkle, slowly becoming “old hags.” She had always despised this idea, but looking back now, she suddenly realized that she had become the very thing she hated.

It had been Ainsley before her.

After Ainsley regained her personality and charm, Cason wanted her back desperately.

Perhaps, Cason preferred her former self instead of the “old hag” bound to family expectations.

“What’s wrong? Have you figured it out after hearing what I said?” Waston was perceptive, so she didn’t miss the change in Kaliyah’s expression.

Kaliyah’s eyes suddenly changed from ferocious to sinister. ’So what? Don’t try to sway me with these boring ideals. You’re right. I’m not who I used to be. But what about it? I’ve done many things in the past. I can come to terms with them, but there’s no way for me to undo the impacts caused by those actions.”

She stopped talking. Whatever happened had happened, and she could no longer do anything about the past.

All she wanted now was a change.

There was no turning back for her.

She had to get the confession letter and take her life into her own hands.

Waston sighed and said to her meaningfully, “From the moment you make a mistake, the consequences that come next are not up to you.”

The dagger before her gleamed coldly, and Waston closed her eyes as if accepting her fate. “I’ll accept whatever Matteo chooses. I won’t resent him for not giving up his share to save me. You’re the one who committed the crime and did something wrong.”

Looking at Waston’s expression, Kaliyah instantly felt that everything was meaningless. She put down the dagger and said, “I won’t disfigure your face. You are from the Glover family, and I don’t want to bring so much trouble upon myself.”

Waston slowly opened her eyes. “You’re wrong. You already kidnapped me, and the Glover family will never let you go. They haven’t acted because they don’t know it’s you.”

To everyone’s surprise, just a few minutes after Matteo hung up the phone, he sent the recording of the call directly to Hudson’s email. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

An hour later, a member of the Glover family came to the Easton Group in person.

It was Jett Glover, Hudson’s confidant. He had been with Hudson since he was young and had a lot of authority in the Glover family.

He exuded an impressive aura as soon as he arrived, and Matteo knew that this was someone who had truly experienced the ups and downs of their generation.

“Mr. Easton, it’s been a while,” he said with a smile.

Matteo nodded to show his respect.

He played the recording back to Jett without missing a single word.

Jett fixed his gaze on Matteo again. “I’ve listened to this call many times on my way here. What do you want to do, Mr. Easton?”

Matteo took out the agreement he had prepared. “Kaliyah has given us two hours. Now, nearly an hour and a half have passed. I will transfer my shares to her and tell the Glover family why. I want you to understand who the real enemy is.”

Jett looked at him gratefully. “Mr. Easton, thank you for volunteering to take out your shares to save Ms. Glover. Of course, the Glover Group won’t let you suffer.”

Ainsley shook her head. “Speaking of which, the reason why Ms. Glover is in danger today is because of me. If it weren’t forthat scandal, she probably wouldn’t be able to get close to Ms. Glover. In the end, it’s still because of me.”
