Chapter 203
It seemed like the person who readily agreed to my terms yesterday wasnât him.
I was somewhat annoyed and at a loss. âDidnât you agree not to let anyone else know for now?â
âHuh?â Frank frowned. âI agreed not to let anyone know you were spying and recording.â
âFine. So he had done nothing wrong after all. Was it just that I hadnât been clear enough?â
âDo you have a grudge against the Frost family?â
âNo.â Frank looked at me, perplexed. âCanât you understand vicious business tactics? After being with Ryan for three years, hasnât he taught you any of this?â
I couldnât help but pause.
His straightforwardness was both frightening and intriguing because of his second question.
I squeezed my palms and replied honestly, âNo.â
After being by Ryanâs side, what had he taught me? Independence, tolerance, patience, devotionâ¦
Besides treating each other with respect, we had no unnecessary exchanges. He never discussed matters of fame and profit with me.
This time, Frank seemed taken aback. He cocked his brows and seemed interested. âYouâre quite an interesting person.â
âArenât you interesting too?â I smiled ambiguously. âPlaying business games with Ryan on one hand and telling his wife on the other. Whatâs your goal?â
He adjusted the coat on his arm and said, âIf Iâm not mistaken, our goals in this matter should be the same, right?â
âHow are they the same?â I almost laughed. âYouâve ruined my plans. Do you realize that?â
âI ruined your plans?â He sounded incredulous.
âIf
you had delayed a few more minutes before revealing everything, I would have smoothly obtained the divorce certificate.â

He frowned. âWerenât you divorcing because of that woman named Jessica? Didnât my actions help you?â
Once again, I was speechless. âI want a divorce. Man, I donât need your help. I just want the divorce.â. Leaning against the railing, arms crossed, he looked at me with a hint of surprise in his eyes. âDo you really want a divorce?â
âYes, absolutely,â I responded without hesitation.
Since the moment we lost our child, there was no possibility left between Ryan and me, no bonds whatsoever. His help and care during our university days and the debt he owed me over these past three years canceled each other out.

With no debts owed, divorce was the only path left.
But I wasnât surprised that others wouldnât believe I truly wanted a divorce.
After all, as someone without parents or a strong family background, marrying into the Frost family was already a stroke of luck. How could I willingly divorce and give up such a bright future?
Frank lazily responded, âThen your wish will come true.â
âWhat?â I glanced at him curiously.
He looked at me casually and said, âWith someone like Bethany aiming for Ryan, becoming his ex- wife is just a matter of time.â
He was direct.
âThanks a lot.â I remembered Ryanâs slight wariness towards him just now and couldnât help but be curious. âAnd what about you? Who are you?â
From his words, I could only deduce that Bethany wasnât from Jelaston. Combined with Ryan and Jackâs conversation, it was clear that the Shaw family was formidable, perhaps even more powerful than the Frost family.
If Frank was familiar with Bethany, then it was highly likely their family backgrounds were comparable.
âYou want to know about me?â He stood straight, one hand in his pocket, a playful glint in his eyes. That also requires payment.â
