Chapter 4
She Became Rich After Divorce
The man didnât refute Cheyenneâs words, only staring at her with cold eyes.
âIâll pack my things and leave right away. If you donât trust me, you can watch me to make sure I donât take anything that belongs to you,â Cheyenne said as she gathered up the train of her dress and walked up the stairs.
Her figure was graceful and elegant. Her fair skin formed a sharp contrast to her black dress. Every step she took was poised, making Abbie jealous.
There was no denying that Cheyenne was beautiful from head to toe. Abbie had been with Kelvin since childhood, and countless women who wanted to get close to him had been secretly dealt with by her.
Only Cheyenne had successfully taken Mrs. Foleyâs place through old Mr. Foleyâs favoritism.
The position that Abbie had been striving for but never obtained for over a decade was easily taken by Cheyenne.
The fact that Kelvinâs first woman wasnât her but Cheyenne felt like a thorn deeply embedded in Abbieâs heart.
After a moment of silence, a glimmer of vicious light flashed in Abbieâs eyes, but when she looked up again, she had put on a gentle and kind expression. âKelvin, let me go help her.â
âSuit yourself,â he replied indifferently before leaving the hall.
Upstairs, looking at the room where she had lived for three years now made Cheyenne feel infinitely desolate inside.
Once upon a time, Cheyenne had hoped to marry Kelvin and become his wife. She had personally chosen the bed sheets and curtains in this bedroom, but unfortunately, he rarely came in.
âClick.â
The closed door was pushed open from the outside, making a slight noise. Cheyenne turned around to see Abbie standing at the doorway with a gentle expression.
âMiss Lawrence, let me help you pack your things,â Abbie said as she walked slowly towards her.
Help me pack up my things? Is she really that kind-hearted or is she just trying to mock me?
âNo need, I donât have much stuff anyway. I donât want to trouble you, Miss Berry, since youâre so important to Kelvin,â Cheyenne replied.
She then opened the closet where there was a row of her clothes mostly in pink, white and blue colors while Kelvin only had one black suit for changing purposes.
In this sea of soft colors suddenly appeared a touch of black which surprisingly blended harmoniously with them â soft yet firm at the same time.
After pausing for a second or two in silence, Cheyenne began taking down her clothes from the shelf with her pale fingers accidentally touching his suit causing them to tremble slightly. Countless nights before, she slept holding onto this suit because it smelled of his scent which gave her peace of mind.
Abbie glanced at the closet and guessed the relationship between the two. A hint of joy appeared on her face as she sighed softly in Cheyenneâs ear, âI never thought that after all these years, Kelvin still kept this suit.â
She reached out and took the suit down, holding it in her arms and unfolding the sleeve. The small, inconspicuous word âAbbieâ suddenly came into Cheyenneâs view.
An icy coldness spread through her body, making her feel numb as if she was immersed in icy water.
Abbie was very satisfied with Cheyenneâs reaction and smiled proudly. âThis suit was a gift I gave to Kelvin on his 20th birthday. At that time he lied to me saying it didnât fit him well and had already thrown it away. But nowâ¦â
It turned out that he treasured it.
Cheyenne felt disgusted at the thought that the suit she used to comfort herself was bought by Abbie.
And Abbie continued to boast in her ear. âOh yeah, this photo frame is still here too! This picture is from many years ago when Kelvin participated in a basketball league championship game and I went to cheer him on as a cheerleader.â
That picture was also his only one.
Kelvin didnât like taking pictures or allowing others to take pictures of him. When information needed to be shared publicly, he would only use a plain background instead of showing himself.
They had been married for three years but they didnât even have one wedding photo together.
Cheyenne knew that he didnât want to marry her; when Grandpa suggested taking wedding photos together, he refused because he hated taking pictures himself.
Unexpectedly, Abbie is his exception.
Although Cheyenne had known the cruel truth for a long time, her heart still tightened for a moment.
After a long time, she smiled slowly and the dimness in her pretty eyes turned into a seductive brightness. She walked over to Abbie with her arms crossed.
Slightly bowing her head, she whispered in Abbieâs ear, âDo you know that your Kelvin always wears this suit in bed and goes crazy for me?â
âWhew!â
Abbie could feel Cheyenneâs hot breath on her ear and the light scent Cheyenne wore made Abbie almost have an emotional breakdown.
The gentle smile on her face froze, and her hands clenched into fists on both sides of her skirt.
She looked at the sweet smile on Cheyenneâs face and wanted to destroy Cheyenne.
âKelvin cares about me so much, yet he still married the bitch and even slept with her.â The thought saddened Abbie greatly.
Upon second thought, it must be because she wasnât by his side. Now that sheâs back, she wonât let another woman have Kelvin!
âYou were married before, so⦠so thatâs normal!â
Cheyenne looked at the false smile on Abbieâs face that betrayed hatred; she reached up and ruffled her long hair in an enchanting way.
âAnyway, whether it was because he wanted to have children or because his grandfather forced him, he slept with me. By the way, Miss Berry, as his ex-wife, I want to remind you that Kelvinâ¦is not very skilled. It hurts every time.â
âBitch!â Abbieâs eyes instantly turned red, and her face became even paler with anger.
âCheyenne, donât get too proud. Youâve been abandoned by Kelvin now! And I am the true mistress of the Foley family!â
As an abandoned woman, what right did Cheyenne have to be so arrogant in front of me?
âTsk tsk, finally stopped being hypocritical and showed your true side? You must hate me a lot since I was Mrs. Foley for three whole yearsâ¦â
Just then, a tall and lean figure walked over with a hint of coldness emanating from him. He glanced at the two people and his gaze fell on Abbieâs red eyes as he instinctively questioned Cheyenne. âIf you have any grievances towards me, why take it out on Abbie?â
Upon hearing this, Abbie burst into tears and threw herself into his arms. Kelvin pushed her away gently which made Abbie feel stunned and disappointed at the same time.
His gaze was fixed on Cheyenneâs fair face while the latter smiled at him and shrugged her shoulders innocently. âI just told her youâre not skilled in bed, then she cried.â
âCheyenne Lawrence!â Suddenly, the man stretched out a hand and pinched her tender neck.
