When Life Takes A Turn

When Faye made the statement, her face filled with sorrow, helplessness, and self-mockery.

Zayn felt his heart twisting painfully.He held Faye’s hand and said, "Fifi, there’s no need for you to go with Mr.Wilson.I can protect you now!"

Faye sneered twice.

"How are you supposed to protect me? Is it by just saying so or with the three million dollars you’re going to give?"

Zayn burned with excitement as he took out a bank card from his pocket.

"I genuinely can provide you with three million dollars! Fifi, there are three million dollars on this card of mine.I’m really capable of protecting you!"

It appeared that Faye did not share his excitement in the slightest.Her expression turned even colder while her eyes grew more disgusted.

"Zayn, you keep changing the way I look at you over and over again, and you’re always making it harder for me to put up with you!"

"Fifi, I’m not lying to you.There truly are three million dollars on the card.You can follow me to the bank and check if you don’t believe me..."

Zayn tried to take her by the hand once again, but she ferociously flung his hand away.

"That’s enough, Zayn! You’re a useless piece of sh *t who doesn’t work and depends on me to support you financially.I’ve never criticized you because you never forced me to have sex with you.I still have a certain level of respect for you, but don’t you see that what you’re doing now is ruining even that? Do you even know how much three million dollars is? It’s an amount of money that you won’t be able to make in ten lifetimes!"

 Upon hearing that, Zayn felt his heart tighten, and it was difficult for him to even breathe.He bit his lips and told himself over and over again that Faye was doing this because she was unaware of his identity.

She did not know who he was and that was why she made such a harsh comment.

That was not what Faye actually thought of him.

He wanted to force a smile just like he did previously, yet he found that the muscles on his face were rigid and he was incapable of controlling them.

Perhaps realizing that her words were a little harsh, Faye took two deep breaths and attempted to soften her tone.

"Alright, Zayn.Let’s part ways peacefully and head to the attorney’s office to finalize the divorce.If you’re willing, we can remain friends.There’s 300,000 dollars in this card and I’m giving it to you in private.Thank you for doing so many chores for the Carters over the past four years."

 As she was speaking, Faye took out a bank card from her bag and stuffed it into Zayn’s hand.

"The password is your birthday.It isn’t considered a lot in Waltz City, so I suggest you head back to the countryside.Get married and spend wisely.It should be enough for the rest of your life."

Zayn felt his heart twisting in agony as he held the card in his hand.It was as if his soul had been stripped away.

After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Faye.

With a weak voice, he asked her, "Faye, we have been married for four years.In your heart, am I just a servant for the Carters?"

Perhaps because he appeared so miserable and sad, the sight of Zayn made Faye’s heart wrench i n pain.She could not bear to meet his eyes, so she hastily lowered her head and avoided his gaze.She felt like crying.
