Under pressure from her family, Jian Ailing married her brother-in-law, the man who was deeply in love with her older sister.
For three years, no matter how much she humbled herself and tried to please him, the man remained a cold iceberg. He saw her only as a scheming woman who had caused her sister’s death and used him to climb the social ladder, humiliating her at every turn.
No matter how much she gave, she would always be merely her sister’s substitute, an unacknowledged Mrs. Yu.
At last, she came to her senses and decided to live for herself.
The first step toward independence was leaving that man.
-
The day he received the divorce notice, Yu Yunting thought it was just another new ploy from that scheming woman.
He played along and indulged her, even deciding to keep the game going.
After all, the woman was bound to be the one who lost everything in the end.
But the divorce game spiraled further and further out of his control.
The one who ended up utterly defeated was him.
-
Jian Ailing finally got the divorce papers she wanted.
The day before the divorce took effect, the man who was about to become her ex-husband pinned her against the wall.
The usually aloof and untouchable man had now completely dropped his mask. His eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse.
“Do you really think you can get away?”
