"The CEO of LK Corp., Mu Shaotian, was recently seen sailing together with a new lover, a young model fresh to the scene, Huang Meina. They were seen getting intimate and spending a night together on the yacht worth 300 million yuan..."
The same news was everywhere on TV.
It became the hottest news across Alynor City.
A woman in her gray uniform, with her hair tied up and wearing a pair of glasses, was seated on the couch. Her appearance looked like a spinster from afar.
However, that still could not hide the fact that she had a gorgeous face and a pair of seductive eyes. She was a beauty.
She looked at the news with a poker face.
Madam Li, the housekeeper, was standing next to her. She did not know what the woman was thinking.
The woman was married to the young master of the family for a year, and yet her husband had never come home. Moreover, he was always involved in scandals like this.
"Mrs. Mu, the reporters must have made up all this. You should not trust their articles..." Madam Li comforted her.
Xia Zixi knew very well whether this was made up or not.
She pursed her lips and smiled at that. She then took her phone and dialed a number.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Hey... "
Before she could finish her sentence, the other end interrupted her.
"It's me," Xia Zixi said lightly.
"What's wrong?" His voice sounded a little annoyed.
"Are you coming back tonight? I have something to tell you." Xia Zixi clutched her phone.
"You can just tell me right now. I don't want to ruin my appetite by looking at your face," said Mu Shaotian harshly.
He felt like throwing up whenever he thought of Xia Zixi's appearance.
Hearing this, Xia Zixi clenched her phone. "You're still my legal husband."
"This will be the last time I warn you not to talk about our marriage. It's just a marriage of convenience, and I'm so disgusted each time I see your face. I wish we could divorce!" He yelled over the phone.
Divorce...
"Mu Shaotian, we've been married for a year, and I have never done anything indecent in our marriage. So why are you asking for a divorce?" Xia Zixi refused to back down from this argument.
"Because I feel sick just by looking at your face!"
"You-"
"Fine, if that's the case, let's get a divorce," said Xia Zixi.
He was stunned. "Have you finally given this a thought?"
"You're the one who wants the divorce. You'd better bear the consequences, and don't you dare vent this out on the Xia family!" said Xia Zixi.
He said without hesitation, "Sure. I can promise that if you are willing to sign the papers."
"I will sign, but you have to make sure you keep your promise."
"No problem!"
The call ended.
Madam Li heard their conversation. She walked up to Xia Zixi. "Mrs. Mu, are you really getting a divorce?"
Xia Zixi looked at her with a bright glint in her eyes. "It's the best for me and him."
"What about Old Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu..."
"He will take care of that." Xia Zixi cut off Madam Li's sentence.
She was about to head up the stairs when she got reminded of something. "Madam Li, you may clean the dinner dishes."
"Mrs. Mu, aren't you eating?" Madam Li was taken aback.
"No. I don't feel like eating." Xia Zixi then walked up the stairs.
She took out the divorce papers Mu Shaotian had prepared beforehand, signing them.
Xia Zixi smiled brightly at the divorce papers.
"Mu Shaotian, from now on, we will go back to our separate ways, and we will have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
