Chapter 200 Will Not Get A Divorce
Lily was actually quite attractive. It was just her spoiled demeanor that made her seem a bit fierce.
She must have rushed to freshen up just now so she didnât look as disheveled as she did right after the fight.
Lily recomposed herself. As if she didnât want to miss another opportunity, she said loudly, âAlexander, I love you. I truly love you. Iâve loved you for ten years since I first saw you in our freshman year. I was misled by Eleanor before. I didnât want to ruin your happiness, so I didnât attempt to pursue you. But now, I canât hold back anymore. I want to be with you!â
Everyone was dumbfounded, staring at Lily in disbelief âIs this normal? Isnât this bizarre?â
âEven Eleanor was trying to steal Alexander for herself in secret.â
Now, with the manâs wife right there, Lily boldly declared in public that she was going to steal her husband. Isnât that too audacious? Couldnât she have been a bit more discreet?â
âShe must have been driven to the brink of madness. Her mental state is alarming.
âShe was already quite bold since before.â
âI guess she has thrown caution to the wind tonight, hasnât she?â
âIf I were her parents, I would be livid.â
âWhat youâre saying isnât quite right. Such a personality isnât something that just any parents could nurture.â
âSpeaking of which, I must express my admiration for Eleanor. She was somehow able to suppress Lily in the past Naturally, Lilyâs extremely shocking confession had also taken Isabella and Alexander aback.
Isabella thought. I genuinely thought she was just a henchwoman tonight. Whatâs going on? Has the cannon fodder turned into the boss now? Iâve seen a lot of types in this battlefield of love, but this is a first. Surprisingly, her straightforward approach didnât immediately make me feel like she was a shameless hussy trying to steal someone elseâs husband. Could this be a case of someone not feeling the need to hide their despicable actions because of their lack of morality? Thereâs always a bigger fish in the sea! Iâm impressed!
Alexander had never encountered such a situation before.
Isabellaâs voice continued to ring in his mind. At a time like this, would it be considered justified selfâdefense or emergency avoidance if I were to step forward and slap her? No, no, no. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. It would hurt my hand. Even though netizens have dubbed me âSlapping Master,â all those slaps were fake.
Isabella was lost in her delightful thoughts when suddenly, Alexander took her hand and raised it to Lilyâs face.
âMs. Jenner, canât you see my wife standing beside me? Alexanderâs tone was laced with annoyance, and he even formally addressed Lily as âMs. Jenner.â
Lilyâs eyes immediately ed up with tears. Still, she was stronger than Eleanor.

She glared bervely at babella and said. âI am a better march for Alexander than you are. I am the only cherished daughter of my family, and all of my familyâs wealth will be mine in the future. The Jenner familyâs business complements Quirk Groupâs perfectly. If Alexander were to marry me, we could form a powerful alliance. Il Alexander wishes it. Iâm willing to dedicate all that I and the Jenner family have to himâ
Lily held her head high as if she looked down upon Isabella.
However, everyone around was looking at Lily as if she were a fool.
Isabella thought. What the f*ck? Is this what they call a hardcore, hopeless romantic? Your parents must be proud to hane vow as their daughter.
Isabella was just about to make sarcastic remarks when she heard Lily speak. âAs long as youâre willing to divorce Alexander, name your pricelâ
Isabella was momentarily stunned. Wait. What Immediately. Alexander turned his gaze toward Isabella.
âI can afford to give up several hundred million or any amount of assets as long as youâre willing to divorce Alexander Several hundred million? I suppose she means more than two hundred million?
Alexander narrowed his eyes.
Oh, my! Oh, my! I canât believe this scene of being offered money to leave someone is happening to me. This is so exciting!
Taking a deep breath, Alexander said, âMs. Jenner, do you see me as some kind of commodity that can be bought and sold? My wife is not short on a few hundred millions.â
Isabella swiftly glanced at Alexander. Of course, she couldnât possibly conduct such a transaction in public. After all, Lily unât exactly a good person. I canât possibly sell my husband in such an unprofessional manner. Nevertheless, this is slightly regretful After all, back in her original world, she longed for such a scene to unfold during those difficult times.
She had even imagined her lines back then.
Yet, now that it had happened, she couldnât provide the response she had practiced las. In fact, I am short of this money.
Isabella casually sighed when she suddenly felt a sharp pull on her hand that was being held. It hurt a bit, but the grip quickly loosened.
âWe wonât get a divorce,â Alexander suddenly said, pulling Isabella to face him. As if speaking only to her, Je repeated earnestly, âWe wonât get a divorce.â
Isabella was taken aback by Alexanderâs sudden serious expressio Alexanderâs eyes were incredibly dark. In the glow of the night lamp at that moment, they flickered with a scattering of light, reminiscent of the depth of the night sky that was both alluring and frightening with the possibility of getting lost.

âThe only woman I would call my wife is Isabellaâ While Isabella was momentarily stunned, Alexander had already made another announcement to everyone He had made his decision with that single statement.
His wife would only ever be Isabella and no one else.
Lily looked at Alexander aggrievedly. âAlexander, everything Iâve told you is true. As a businessman, donât you understand the concept of weighing pros and cons Alexander scoffed. âIsabella is my wife. Iâm not sure what your familyâs values are, but we were never taught to use our wives as bargaining chips in our household. Even if it were a matter of weighing pros and Cons, youâre worthless in my eyesâ
Perhaps saying that might offend the Jenner family, but Lily was the first to insult them.
Tit for tat is fair play, and Alexander had never been a pushover.
When Lily was publicly rejected by the one she held dear, she naturally couldnât hold back her emotions. She glared at Isabella in anger. âYouâre an orphan, abandoned by your family, living off the kindness of others, and dependent on the Quirk family for your sustenance. How dare you compete with me for Alexanderâs affection?â
The moment she finished her sentence, her already swollen face was met with another slap.
Everyone was taken aback.
After a night full of farce, Isabella, the female lead, finally took action.
âItâs fine for you to berate me, but youâre asking for trouble to insult my deceased family,â Isabella uttered indifferently.
While everyone thought that was the end, she delivered another slap to Lilyâs face.
âYou canât insult my inâlaws either. They treat me exceptionally well.â This time, Isabella was finally done.
After slapping Lily, she felt a bit apprehensive inside. So, she subtly moved to hide behind Alexander.
Upon regaining her senses, Lily was on the verge of losing her temper. However, she saw Alexander standing protectively in front of Isabella. In a cold voice, he warned, âMs. Jenner, please conduct yourself with dignity. Furthermore, Iâd prefer if you refrain from appearing in front of my wife and me in the future.â
This statement was essentially meant for everyone to hear, signifying a severance of ties between Alexander and the Jenner family.
The implied message was that others wouldnât need to invite Alexander and Isabella to any events where Lily would participate.
Everyone was surprised that Eleanorâs actions didnât lead to such a consequence. On the other hand, all Lily did was insult Isabella, yet she was met with such an outcome.
It seemed that Isabella was more than just a wife acknowledged by Alexander.
Shortly after, the car arrived, and Alexander, accompanying Isabella, left the venue.

The reputation did Isabella snap back to reality from the recent events.
âas silent all the way. Only after Alexander compensated Isabella for the damage to her Tm sorry about what happened tonight. It was all triggered by me,â Alexander apologized sincerely.
Upon receiving the money, Isabella couldnât help but beam with joy. âItâs fine. No worries. Youâve had it tough with your first crush treating you like this. To top it off, youâve even got a secret admirer whoâs been eyeing you covetously.â
Alexander frowned, his expression grim. âYouâre still not convinced? Eleanor is not my first crush Immediately. Isabella said. âTm convinced. I really do. I have to believe. If this is also you bring stubborn in your love pursuit, that awaits you tell be more challenges and torments. This is actually not bad. Alexander is a nice person. Itâs fine as long as heâs not deceived by a bad woman.
As Alexander drove, he was all the while waiting to hear Isabellaâs thoughts.
Yet, the entire journey home was filled with silence.
Alexander thought. Thatâs it? Nothing more? Is she not going to think about my other words and actions tonight?
Alexanderâs lips moved slightly. His heart palpitated against his chest, his heartbeat seemingly echoing inside the vehicle.
