The Miraculous Simone Gray

Chapter 467 Are You Going To Be So Cruel to Me?

Salma had witnessed disappointment in Steven’s gaze before, but this was the first time she saw him acting so cold.

She felt a sense of panic. Those things were all done by Jo’s biological parents. It has nothing to do with her.”

“We have raised her for so many years. There’s no need to vent our anger on her.”

“After all, she is innocent. Back then, she was just a child.”

Steven furrowed his brow. “She may have been innocent as a child, but she manipulated the lives of our sons. That’s a fact.”

“Moreover, she is the daughter of our enemy. Whenever we see her, we can’t help but be reminded of what her parents did. It’s repulsive.”

“Why are you still able to treat her with kindness and love, as if she were your own daughter?”

Titus chimed in. “Yeah, she’s the daughter of our enemy.”

“No matter if she is innocent or not, shouldn’t our first reaction be repulsion? Mom, you raised Jodie as a pampered heiress, treating lier so well. Have you ever thought about your own biological daughter?” Aaron couldn’t help but speak up. “When you were showering Jodie with love, Simone almost ended up being sold off to the mountains as a child bride.”

They had always blamed him for losing Simone, but it was actually Jodie’s biological parents who were responsible.

He still felt guilty toward Simone, and he felt even more repulsed by Jodie.

Andrew said, “Mom, I am a living example. I was harmed by Jodie, and now I’m sitting in a wheelchair.”

Since the incident, his life has been unbearable.

His sibling bond with Jodie was long gone, replaced by a deep sense of disgust

After hearing their words, Salma’s face turned unpleasant, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

What were they trying to do? Questioning Jodie in public and humiliating her? She said coldly, “Those are all things of the past. Why do you keep dwelling on them? And if you find Jo difficult to accept, haven’t I already moved out with her? What more do you want from us?”

Deep down, she regretted her decision, but she didn’t want to admit it in front of everyone.

Especially with Steven and her sons constantly questioning her, she couldn’t back down. Otherwise, it would truly be her fault.

Internally, Jodie cursed Chester for being useless.

He was the president of the geomancy association and supposedly one of the most powerful members, yet he was caught and confessed so quickly.

He even let Steven and the others know about her past. It was like he was trying to harm her.

Luckily, Salma had a strong sense of pride and wanted to protect her. Otherwise, she might have given up on her

She only hoped that Salma could hold on. As long as Salma doesn’t give up on her, she can still live a good life.

She walked up to the couch and half-knelt in front of Salma.

Leaning her head on Salma’s leg, she said with red eyes, full of dependence and gratitude, “Mom, thank you.”

Salma reached out and patted her shoulder without saying a word.

Steven looked at the two of them, feeling a strong discomfort. He took a deep breath. “Alright, since you two have such a deep mother-daughter bond, then live your lives well from now on.”

“Salma, your choices and actions have crossed my bottom line, and I can’t tolerate it anymore.” He looked at Salma, who still didn’t think she was wrong, and said with a serious tone, “Let’s get a divorce.”

Salna was stunned at first, then couldn’t believe it and asked, “What did you say?

He repeated. “I said, let’s get a divorce. I’ll take the sons with me, and you can raise your precious adopted daughter. Let’s not interfere with each other in the future.”

She didn’t expect that Steven not only didn’t come to coax her back today but also wanted to divorce her.

She couldn’t help but push Jodie away, reaching out to grab Steven’s arm. “After so many years of our relationship, you actually want a divorce.”

“How can you be so heartless?” Steven let her grab him.

“Am I the heartless one? Clearly, it’s you who acted recklessly.”

Salma burst into tears. “What did I do wrong? I just wanted someone to accompany me. Neither you nor the sons accompanied me. Only Jo has been by my side wholeheartedly. I let her stay. What’s wrong with that?

Steven furrowed his brow even deeper, “Since you think it’s not wrong, then the two of you can live together.”

Salma shook her head in denial. “No. I don’t want a divorce. It’s not embarrassing for you at this age, but it is for me.”

If she were to get a divorce, how could she hold her head up in the high society of wealthy wives? Moreover, when she married Steven back then, it was not just a marriage of convenience because she truly liked him.

Over the years, he didn’t cheat on her like many men in their social cucle.

Their marital relationship had always been good, and they were recognized as a model couple in the circle.

She still had feelings for him, but she never thought about getting a divorce and separating.

Steven knew that his wife wouldn’t agree, but he understood her.

So, he said, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t agree. I will sue you in court. I don’t feel ashamed. I will expose how you pampered the enemy’s daughter and neglected your own biological daughter and son. As well as how you transferred the venom on your body to your nephew. I’ll make all of it public.

“All of these are my reasons for divorce. I believe that if everyone knew the truth, they would only support divorce and applaud.”

Salma had always held the identity of a wealthy lady and a mistress.

If this matter were to be publicized, she would definitely lose her pride, and she wouldn’t be happy about it

Salma looked at him incredulously. “Are you really going to be so cruel to me?”

Steven looked at her. “I am being this cruel because you forced me to. This is the divorce agreement. Take a look. I’ll give you everything that you’re entitled to under the law.”

After so many years of marriage. he didn’t want to argue over property.

He wouldn’t give her any less than what she deserved.

Salma reached out and tore the divorce agreement into pieces without even looking at it.

Then, she continuously pushed Steven. Get out! Leave now. I don’t want to see you.”

Steven knew she wouldn’t agree to this. He said, “Please think about it carefully and answer me by tomorrow. If you choose not to respond or disagree, I will proceed with filing for divorce through my lawyer. And what I said earlier will all be revealed. You know my temperament. If you don’t believe it, you can try. It doesn’t matter if you tear up the divorce agreement, as I have the original copy. I will send you an electronic version later. If you delete it, I can resend it. I will await your call tomorrow.”

After concluding his statement, he adjusted his suit and walked away.

Salma couldn’t accept this outcome as she watched Steven leave resolutely.

How did such a minor issue escalate to the point of divorce? Why was he so heartless? After Steven’s figure disappeared, Salma looked at her sons and asked, “Are you just going to stand by and watch your parents fight like this? Aren’t you going to try to stop your dad from divorcing?” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Titus shrugged and replied, “If Dad wants a divorce, what can we do? Besides, I believe Dad is making the right decision.”

“Mom, if you like Jodie so much, just live happily with your adopted daughter.”

“What does it matter to us, your biological children?”

Luca nodded in agreeinent and added, “I agree with Titus.”

Andrew and Aaron chimed in, “Titus has expressed our thoughts.”

Salma was so furious at their words that her entire body trembled, and she slapped Titus.

Then, she lost control and started fighting Aaron and Luca, exclaiming, “You ungrateful children. You ingrates! I regretted raising you.”

Andrew, sitting in a wheelchair, managed to avoid being hit.

Titus and the other two were taken aback by Salma venting her anger on them.

Although they understood her frustration, they were once again disappointed in her.

Were they, her biological sons, so worthless to her?

At that moment, they suddenly empathized with Simone, whom they had mistreated in the past, and regretted once again the foolish things they did back then.
