Chapter 96: Chapter 96

“Oh, I see.” Anastasia laughed weakly.

Alastor only admitted that he misunderstood who the baby’s father was, not that he misunderstood her as a promiscuous Woman.

“If it weren’t for what you did, I wouldn’t have misunderstood that the baby is not mine.” Alastor sounded a little panicked as he made excuses for himself.

Feeling suffocated, Anastasia took a deep breath.

“Since you misunderstood me this time, then can we divorce?” Anastasia inquired softly.

“Anastasia, I told you that we’re not getting divorced for the time being.” Alastor had no idea why he was delaying.

“Why do you have the say about our divorce?” Anastasia couldn’t hold back her emotions. “When I begged you not to divorce, you did everything you could to force me to. Now, I’m not begging you anymore. I’ll let you go so you can be with Felicia. I don’t want anything else; I’ll leave this marriage without taking anything. All I want is to divorce.”

“Do you want to do that so you can take my child and live with Jace?” Alastor was furious. “Come back now.”

“Your child? Have you ever admitted that the child is yours?” Anastasia asked sarcastically.

“Anastasia, I’m sure you’ve heard the story of ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf.’ I have to be responsible for myself,” Alastor told Anastasia seriously. He had to ensure his interests because he didn’t trust her.

Anastasia had made Alastor draft a will and asked for shares, so it was difficult for Alastor not to overthink.

Not wanting to explain further, Anastasia clasped her hands tightly.

From Alastor’s point of view, she was not trustworthy at all because she was a woman of loose morals.

“When are you going to divorce me? At least give me a date,” Anastasia said in a low voice.

“You’re bearing my child, and you must stay in the Lopez residence until the baby is born. Leave the baby to me after it’s born. By then, I will agree to divorce you if you want.” Alastor was using the child to make Anastasia stay.

Even though he didn’t love her, he still refused to let her go.

“I still stand by my point. I can agree to your request, but you must promise to attend my art exhibition.”

Anastasia’s voice was hoarse.-

“Anastasia, why are you so obsessed with the art exhibition? Over the years, you’ve gained enough fame as Mrs. Lopez in the Lopez Group. Now, your reputation is quite poor. You’ll suffer if you hold an art exhibition now,” Alastor said impatiently.

It was clear he didn’t want Anastasia to hold this art exhibition.

The comments about Anastasia on the internet were polarized, and there were many extreme people out there.

Anastasia would be hurt if she insisted on holding an art exhibition.

Those netizens had already thrown eggs at the door of their company.

If this continued to escalate, Anastasia wouldn’t be able to withstand the pressure of public opinion.

Even though the issue had been suppressed temporarily, the netizens refused to accept it.

“I must hold an art exhibition.” Anastasia’s voice was firm.

t to compete “Anastasia, this isn’t about the art exhibition, is it? You just with Felicia, right?” Alastor thought Anastasia was too superficial.

“Felicia’s art exhibition is important as it is her first after returning from overseas, so I need to attend and support her. That’s why you’re asking me to attend yours. What are you trying to prove? Do you want to prove that you are better than Felicia? Or show the media that our relationship isn’t that bad?”

In Alastor’s opinion, Anastasia’s every move Anastasia’s eyes turned red, and she held calculated.

quilt tightly.

She thought, “Who am I to him? I’m Alastor’s wife. We haven’t divorced, but he claimed to the public that we have. Now, he’s going to attend his mistress’ art exhibition openly, yet he’s questioning my intentions. This is so ridiculous.”

“Fine. I am pulling tricks. I just don’t want a mistress’ art exhibition to turn out successful. Felicia and are holding our art exhibitions at the same time. Are you coming to mine or hers? If you are not attending mine, I will get an abortion.”

Since Alastor thought she was playing tricks, she decide.”

to go “Anastasia! Why did you become like this?” Alastor’s rage grey with the flow and threaten him.

Anastasia flashed a mocking smile. “Why did I become like this? Haven’t I always been like this?”

In Alastor’s eyes, she was a scheming bitch from the beginning; meeting him, getting close to him, and marrying him were all part of her plot.

“I won’t go back on my word. If you don’t come, I will abort the child,” Anastasia reiterated and then hung up the phone.

She wanted to live for a little longer, so she had to stay away from Alastor.
