Chapter 457 Victoria was the last person to know about Nathanâs bankruptcy and the news of selling his properties.
She stood in the center of the living room, the vast space making her feel incredibly small. With red eyes, she looked at Nathan sitting on the sofa and said, âNathan, can you give me a portion of the money from selling the family property?â
Nathanâs frail body seemed even more feeble, and he looked at her incredulously, âAt this point, all you care about is what you can gain?â
Victoria had a stern expression on her face, with her thin lips tightly pressed together. âYou know well that I have poor health. Without money, I would die.â
Nathan chuckled selfâdeprecatingly and said, âDonât worry, I would have given you a million dollars, which would have been enough for you to get a kidney transplant.â
If it were the old Victoria, she would definitely think that one million is very little. However, this year she has been living a very tight life. Suddenly, she received a sum of money that could sustain her for several years and also cover the medical expenses for her dialysis for a long time. She was very content.
After all, she still had Nathan. Nathan could continue to earn a steady income for her.
Nathanâs next words, however, left her stunned.
1000 Chapter 457 âWe divorced once we got this one million.â
Victoriaâs body trembled like a sieve. âWhat did you say?â She thought she had misheard and rushed to Nathan, grabbing his hand and tearfully saying, âNathan, we canât get divorced. Youâre going through a difficult time right now, and I canât leave you at this moment.â
Nathan couldnât express what he felt in his heart.
This was his best chance to get rid of Victoria, but for some reason, he couldnât help but feel a faint reluctance in his heart.
In the end, after being bound for most of his life, he still hoped that she would be able to face the storms with him. If that were the case, he would be willing to let go of his previous prejudice against her and start over with her.
âVictoria, I went bankrupt. And I also owe a lot of money. If you follow me, you will be dragged down,â Nathanâs ga.e softened considerably.
Victoria slowly released his hand.
She only thought about keeping the green hills, not afraid of running out of firewood. But she forgot about the heavily indebted Nathan, who may never be able to get back on his feet in his lifetime.
She stood up trembling, looking at the still young and handsome man, but his charm had greatly diminished.
A useless spendthrift, penniless man, it turns out that no matter how goodâlooking his appearance was, he was always a failure, without charm.

Chapter 457 Victoria even secretly criticized herself for having such poor judgment, wondering how she had chosen a garbage stock.
âNathan, one million, isnât it too little? You know, I have poor health, I need medication all year round, regular dialysis, and I have to wait for a kidney transplant. I also have a disabled mother to take care of. Can you please be generous and give me a little more money?â

Victoriaâs eyes lost their warmth and were filled with calculation, leaving him completely coldâhearted.
His eagle eyes narrowed, âHow much do you want?â
Victoria said, âTen million.â
Nathanâs lips twitched, forming a wicked curve at the corner.

A trace of fear appeared on Victoriaâs face.
But she was used to playing dumb and acting pitiful, with red eyes she stammered, âNathan, are you threatening me?â Her ability to turn the tables was unmatched.
Victoria could not forget that if she and Nathan did not talk about emotions but only about interests, she would not be Nathanâs opponent.
Nathan sneered at her, âYou could also choose not to divorce Chapter 457 me.â
Victoria signed the divorce agreement that Nathan had prepared in advance with a black face. Nathan stared blankly at her, and his heart suddenly ached when he wrote his name in the signature column.
Ouch, it hurt.
The person I liked when I was young, I once ran towards her with all my strength, but in the end, we still broke up.
He stood up unsteadily and said, âI will be waiting for you at the Civil Affairs Bureau to register our marriage in a month. Oh, by the way, this house has already been listed with the real estate agency, so please pack up and move out as soon as possible.â
Victoria finished signing and stood up only to realize that she had lost her strength.
âNathan, how did we end up like this?â she asked, her eyes red.
Nathan had long reflected on this issue. So he almost instinctively said, âOur misfortune began from the moment we betrayed Isabellaâs conscience.â
Victoriaâs eyes filled with hatred, âYes, itâs Isabella. It was her who caused our family to be destroyed and torn apart. Nathan, you must never forget to seek revenge on her.â
Nathan, however, was quite calm, âVictoria, we shouldnât blame her. After all, it was us who wronged her first. Let the hatred end with me.â

Chapter 457 1:200 Vouchers Victoria stared at him incredulously, âHow did you become so weak?â
Nathan stared at her with deep eyes and said, âI was not weak, but I finally learned to empathize with her and understand her.â
He suddenly approached Victoria and said, âAfter marrying. you, I realized how cruel I was to Isabella when I saw you getting angry and arguing with me because I came home late, because I flirted with other women, because I occasionally ignored you. I had to carefully appease your emotions.â
âBecause I didnât love her, she had nowhere to vent her grievances. You often say that she holds grudges and is petty, but itâs clear that it was our failure to properly address the harm we caused her in the past. Now she hates me, and I, on the other hand, feel somewhat relieved.ââ
Victoriaâs clumsy body stumbled backwards.
âDo you not hate her, then do you hate me?â Her face turned pale.
Nathan reached into his pocket and pulled out a cigarette box. He took out a cigarette and slowly lit it for himself. Then, he exhaled sharply, as smoke rings swirled and blurred his. cold face. âTo say that I donât hate even a little bit is false.â
Victoria saw his skilled smoking action, and her lips turned a little pale.

11 Victoria trembled, which meant that Nathan had long disregarded her wellâbeing and had long distanced himself from her.
âWhy do you hate me?â Victoria asked.
âI donât know. If I think about it, there are quite a few reasons. I hate how you, after receiving Theaâs kidney, didnât understand gratitude and intentionally competed with her for attention. You used my favoritism towards you to keep me tightly bound to you, hurting her heart. Otherwise, how could she have left her homeland and met someone like Theo?â
He approached Victoria step by step, âIf it werenât for Theoâs infatuation with her, why would he spare no effort to bring down the four major families? For her revenge?â
Victoria pushed his approaching chest with both hands, crying as she retorted, âIt wasnât me, it wasnât me...â
âVictoria, you were a disaster.â Nathanâs words sliced through Victoriaâs neck like a guillotine, brutally severing it into two pieces.
After saying these words, Nathan left, swaying as he held his coat.
