Chapter 10
In the middle of the night, I was awakened by the urgent sound of the phone.
As soon as the call was connected, it was the sound of my mother–in–law crying.
Disturbed from my sleep, I was not in the mood to listen to her crying here, and I asked impatiently, “What’s the matter?”
Rarely, my mother–in–law’s attitude toward me became very good.
In the past, she always commanded me and accused me, as if I were a seductive vixen who had lured
her son.
And she would even intentionally make things difficult for me because of Lilian.
But this time, she hesitantly asked me, “Annie, do you have time now?”
I coldly spoke up, reminding, “I am abroad, and it is now three o’clock in the morning.”
“I… Alas… This is the Hancock family’s fault, but can you help clarify things for Braydon?”
“Just to say… you guys have already divorced.”
“Annie, I know this will inconvenience you, but I am also at my wit’s end. Please just spare your mercy on me. Braydon’s father passed away early, and if something happens to Braydon again, I really can’t go on living.”
I pieced together the complete story from her fragmented words.
Holding the tablet, I scrolled through it and sure enough, there were developments on the previous hot topic. An insider revealed Braydon’s married status, and Lilian went from being the beloved beauty in a romantic relationship to being labeled as the mistress that everyone condemned.
All major platforms were cyberbullying the two of them, and some even photoshopped their
pictures.
Even Jagger was rumored to be Braydon’s illegitimate child.
I noticed that in the contact list, Lilian’s profile picture turned into a completely black photo, and
all the friends‘ circles were deleted.
I was feeling a bit frustrated. Why couldn’t these annoying things leave me alone, even though I had escaped to another country?
After completely losing my patience, I angrily exclaimed, “You don’t need to morally blackmail me. It’s your son, not me, who refuses to get a divorce now! If you’re really afraid of Braydon having an accident, then make him sign the divorce agreement quickly.”
“Annie, why are you speaking like this? After all, Braydon is your husband, you…”

“Twas no longer married after the divorce!”
1shut down my phone with a snap and dropped it on the bed.
Inundated with grievances, why should I keep giving in again and again?
They caused the trouble themselves, so they had to deal with it on their own.
Nobody should drag me into that abnormal circle now.
