She didnât want to waste her breath trying to defend herself anymore.
She just said lightly, âWhether Iâm cheating on you or not isnât the point.
Itâs just that I donât love you anymore.
Thereâs nothing to say between us now.
Just read the agreement and sign it.
â
âNever!â Adam roared.
Riley pursed her lips unhappily.
âAdam, our marriage is just a piece of paper.
You donât Love me anymore.
Whatâs the point of continuing?â
Adam didnât answer her.
He simply stared at her coldly.
Riley sighed.
âItâs better to set each other free than to keep torturing each other just for your so-called reputation.
Trust me.
This will be good for the both of us.

Adamâs expression darkened.
He turned his face away from Riley and said to me, âDebra, youâre coming back to the office with me.
You donât have to work for Riley anymore.
â
âWhat ?â
The topic suddenly shifted to me, which took me by surprise.
Adam cast a cold glance at Riley and said, âSince someone here doesnât want to be the wife of the mayor anymore, she doesnât deserve an assistant.
From now on, Iâm not giving her a single cent.
She has to know what suffering is Like so that she can learn to appreciate the wonderful life Iâve given her.
â
Confused, I pointed out, âBut Riley is the one who has been paying for all the household expenses.
â
Adam felt embarrassed.
âDid I ask you to meddle in our affairs? Just shut up!â he cursed angrily.
I touched my nose awkwardly and didnât say anything more, but I couldnât shake off my worries about Riley.
Although I really wanted to go to the office to continue the investigation, what would happen to Riley? What if she couldnât hold on without me?
Moreover, now that Janiya was in the picture, who knew what sort of trouble sheâd stir?
Riley seemed to read my mind, because she shook her head and reassured me in a soft voice.
âIâll be fine, Debra.
Just go with him.
â
Hearing this, Adam gritted his teeth angrily and roared, âIâd like to see how Long you can keep being so stubborn!â
Then he stormed off.
Sensing that I hadnât moved a muscle, he shouted at me, âWhy are you still standing there? Do you want to lose your job?â
In the end, I had no choice but to leave Riley.
âTake care, Riley.
â
Before Leaving, I looked back over my shoulder at Riley.
She stood there alone, staring at the divorce agreement on the table with empty eyes.
She said nothing as though she didnât hear me.
