chapter156
Last night, after receiving Audrey’s message, she was engulfed by overwhelming anger and pain. The agony of flesh being torn from bone struck her again, making it almost impossible to breathe.
At that moment, her hatred for Damian and Audrey reached its peak.
She knew that Damian must have told Audrey about the miscarriage.
He had actually turned the loss of their child into a topic of conversation to share with another woman!
And Audrey!
That woman had stabbed her right where it hurt the most.
How could Claudine not feel pain!
How could she not hate!
In the cold night, Claudine collapsed in agony, curling up and clutching her abdomen tightly.
There had once been her child there.
And now, Damian was with his lover, discussing her child…
Claudine thought her tears had long since dried up.
Only now did she realize that some wounds would never heal in this lifetime.
She stared out into the darkness beyond the window, hatred slowly eating away at her soul.
If she could, she wished she could rush in front of those two wretches and perish together with them!
But then what?
She was long past the age of acting on impulse. After calming down, she understood the malicious intent behind Au- drey sending that photo.
It must be because Audrey knew Damian would never remarry her, so she sent the photo, hoping Claudine would turn against Damian, allowing Audrey to benefit from the fallout.
Claudine slowly straightened up.
She looked at the photo on her phone.
Her hand holding the phone was so tense that her fingertips had lost all color.
She wiped away her tears, saved the photo, and sent it along with the message Audrey had just sent to Darlene to

Lawyer Luo.
This time, she wanted more than just 32% of the assets.
She wanted Damian’s reputation ruined, and Audrey left with nothing.
She wanted them to pay the price for their selfishness and depravity!

Claudine had just sat in the driver’s seat, ready to start the car, when the passenger door was suddenly opened.
Damian got in directly and sat in the passenger seat.
He still reeked of that nauseating woman’s perfume.
Claudine spoke coldly.
“Get out!”
Damian had no idea how Claudine had made it through last night.
When he took out the figurine, he felt an unprecedented sense of anticipation and excitement, even a bit of pride.
After all, restoring those fragments was truly no easy task.
His hands had been cut by the shards countless times.
He had deliberately not worn gloves, wanting Claudine to see the scratches on his hands.
He never expected that one day he would use such a ploy on Claudine.
But what he never could have imagined was that Claudine, taking the figurine, didn’t hesitate for a second-she didn’t even look at it, and simply threw it out the window.
The anticipation on Damian’s face instantly turned cold.
He shouted angrily.
“Claudine, what are you doing!”
Damian pushed open the car door and got out to check on the figurine.
The figurine had landed right on the cobblestone path in the garden, and was now shattered all over again.
“Claudine!”
He turned to look at Claudine, wanting to demand an explanation for her actions.
But all he got in response was Claudine starting the car decisively and driving away!
All that was left for him was the car’s taillights, quickly disappearing from view.

Claudine pressed hard on the accelerator.
Watching the man gradually vanish in the rearview mirror, she withdrew her gaze in disgust.
At that moment, Lawyer Luo called.
She pressed the answer button.
“Ms. Hogan, I’ve seen the photos and messages you sent.
If you wish to file for divorce, based on the evidence you’ve provided and the injury report you sent earlier, you can sue on grounds of domestic violence during marriage and cohabitation with another person during marriage.”
After listening, Claudine replied calmly.
“Will this evidence allow me to successfully get a divorce?”
On the other end of the line, Lawyer Luo did not give a definite answer.
“Currently, the success rate for divorce cases is the lowest among all case types. The key issue in your case is not winning, but that your husband refuses to divorce.
According to domestic divorce litigation practice, ‘the first trial generally does not grant a divorce.’ If you insist on di- vorcing, we need to begin separation immediately after obtaining the first ‘Separation Agreement.’
After one year of separation, we can immediately file the second lawsuit!”
Claudine gripped the steering wheel tighter. When she spoke again, her voice was filled with undisguised exhaustion and disappointment.
“Even with all this evidence, as long as Damian doesn’t agree, I still can’t get divorced right away?”
