Let’s end it now.

But before David could react, my parents exploded.

"Nadine, what nonsense are you saying? You can’t get a divorce! If you leave, who will take care of Tyler?"

Their disappointed expressions were the same as when I first refused to give up my engagement for Yvonne.

Back then, when my mother was pregnant, the marriage had been arranged for me.

But when Yvonne had her heart broken and decided to marry out of spite, my parents forced me to step aside.

With one word mom and dad made me give up the marriage.

I refused. And now, history repeated itself.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, mom and dad hurriedly said again.

"Alright, alright, you’re injured now, we won’t make you apologize to Tyler this time. If you just admit you were wrong, we’ll give you the house keys back. You can come home anytime you want."

When I married into the Gunn Family and became a stepmother, they took away my keys.

They even warned the security guards and drivers: unless I was with Tyler, I wasn’t allowed inside.

"Nadine, only when you have no home to return to—no way out—will you truly see the Gunn Family as your own. Only then will you treat Tyler as your real son."
