Chapter 195
I was confused and retorted, âWhat do you mean donât know?â
His eyes were sharp. âStop pretending.â
I stared at him blankly, anger rising from within. âAre you crazy? I didnât do anything, what am I pretending?
âYou just wonât admit it.â Ryanâs lips curved into a sneer, and he became even more fierce. He picked up his phone and tapped it twice before turning it towards me. âTake a look. Is this your handiwork?â
I was momentarily stunned, then looked at his phone screen. It displayed a hot search that had just exploded two minutes ago.
Upon seeing the contents clearly, I was struck as if by lightning!
It was a freshly exposed scandal involving a prominent family, and the protagonists were my fatherâin- law, John, and Jessica.
There was even a video.
The cover of the video was a scene from the backyard of the Renolds family last nightâ¦.
I could almost recognize it at a glance. I shivered all over, reached out to tap on it to confirm if it was the one I had filmed, but the video had already been taken offline.
It had been blocked.
Moreover, someone had even dug out evidence of Ryan and Jessica being seen together.
For a moment, the criticism online was through the roof..
Ryan sneered. âDo you have anything else to say now?â
My mind was a bit chaotic, but I still denied it. âIt wasnât me. Ryan, Iâm not that stupid. Even if I were to expose it, it wouldnât be at this time.â
Truth be told, I had indeed planned to release it.
But not now.
At the very least, I would have waited until I had the divorce certificate securely in my hands before attempting this move.
âThen can you tell me how this video ended up in someone elseâs hands?â Ryan stared at me. âOr are you going to say you were watching it with someone last night?â
His words suddenly cleared my mind!
Frank!
However, I wasnât sure if it was really him.
And now, no matter how I explained, Ryan wouldnât believe me anymore. âEven if you donât believe me, since youâre here, letâs get the certificate first.â
âDo
you think Iâll let you have your way?â His lips curved with a mocking smile, his voice cold and chilling.

Charlotte, stop dreaming!â
With that said, he walked away.

I took a deep breath, watching his back, feeling frustrated. âItâs fine, if you wonât cooperate. The law also allows for unilateral dissolution of marriage after two years of separation! So weâll just drag this out.â
After all, I had plenty of time!
He was the one in a hurry to remarry multiple times, and he was the one who never stopped with mistresses and lovers. I wanted to see who was at the disadvantage.
He paused slightly, his voice icy cold to the bone. âRemember your words!â
I was filled with anger, took out my phone intending to confront Frank, only to realize I was too angry to think straight. I didnât even have his contact details.
As he left the office, passing through the lobby, Jessica and her mother rushed over joyfully waiting outside, I had no idea what they said.
But Ryan ignored them completely and strode away.
It hadnât been long since my Grandpa passed away, and the Frost family had just stabilized somewhat. Now this incident had stirred up trouble, causing enough chaos for the Frost family.
Ryan ignored them, and they didnât chase after him. Instead, they came swaggering over to me.
They blocked me at the door of the office. Jessica raised her chin, smiling coyly. âWhat did you say to Ryan that made him so angry when getting a divorce certificate?â
She had been waiting eagerly for us to come out with the certificate, not paying attention to her phone, completely unaware of the damage to her reputation.
Lauren was even more amusing. Completely oblivious to the fact that her daughter had been publicly humiliated, she maintained her temperament as an elder and reached out to me. âRyan left in such a hurry, he didnât even bother showing me the divorce certificate. Show me yours so we donât have to worry.
