Chapter 158

After her argument with Ryder, Abellyn left her residential area and beelined

for Chloe’s house.

Chloe, who was about to have lunch with her son Robby, immediately set her

cutlery down when she noticed her teary sister at the door. “What’s wrong?

Why are you crying?”

She briefly pondered inviting Abellyn to dine with them, but alas, she had only

ordered enough food for two.

Chloe brought this upon herself by losing too much money playing poker but

still insisting on saving money to keep her son in a school in the city.

Abellyn instantly launched into a tirade, “Chloe, Ryder is absolutely horrid! He

really wants to divorce me! He must’ve been brainwashed by that cousin of

his! He said he wouldn’t give the Sheppards a single cent, but did I have such

an easy life while married to him? I didn’t work because of him and lived in

poverty. I’m merely asking for a favor to support Robby’s education in the city,

but he simply won’t agree! I’m done with him! He can go live in h*ll with

Emmanuel!”

Chloe jumped in to add her two cents on her brother–in–law’s despicable

behavior.

The young, naive Robby took his mother and aunt’s words at face value,

mistakenly believing that his uncle owed him.

Tommy gets to study in the city, so why can’t I? Uncle Ryder’s pettiness is

ruining my future!

The two sisters continued cursing Ryder out for a long time. They even went

online and made nasty remarks about Emmanuel, adding fuel to the fire.

They could not wait to witness the irredeemable downfall of the Lowe family

men.

Right after firing off their slandering posts, Abellyn’s phone rang with an

incoming call from Ryder.

“Let me speak to him!”

Chloe took her sister’s phone. Once the line connected, she roared, “Did you

have a change of heart, Ryder? You b*stard! Did you forget your vows when

you married my sister? You swore you would love her forever and protect her

from any harm. How dare you demand a divorce now!”

Ryder was a gentleman, but he was no fool. He immediately retorted, “I never

demanded a divorce; she asked for one! She ran out of the house after that.

I’m only calling to ask if she’s coming home for lunch.”

“Hmph, you don’t seem too worried that my sister ran out of the house in

tears! And you call yourself a man? Didn’t it cross your mind to come after

her?” Chloe threatened, “Listen up, Ryder! You must have accumulated three

lifetimes of good karma to marry my sister. If you divorce, there are plenty of

better men lining up to marry her. As for you, I wonder who’ll want to bind

themselves to an old hat!”

Her words struck close to home.

Ryder knew he did not have the best to offer as a spouse, and to scrounge up

enough betrothal gifts for a second wife was a Herculean task. With a son

from a previous marriage in tow, it was nearly impossible for him to find a

new partner.

Even if I find a new partner, I can’t guarantee she will be kind to Tommy as a

stepmother!

Abellyn’s flaws aside, she was Tommy’s biological mother, and she would

never abuse her child, at least.

Chloe scoffed and said, “Abellyn’s with me. I’m sending her location. Come

and coax your wife home! My sister is a woman. As her man, can’t you just

put up with her nagging if she loses her temper? Who gets mad at their wife

instead? I will never forgive you if you make her cry again!”

She hastily hung up after that.

A confused Abellyn asked, “Chloe, why do you want me to go home with

him?”

“Do you have a new potential husband in mind? You’re better off securing

your future prospects before divorcing Ryder, or we’ll be in a tough spot. I still

want to get Robby enrolled in a school here. We can’t delay that any longer!”

Chloe’s explanation struck a chord within Abellyn.

She’s right. I can’t keep wasting my time with him. I must find a new prospect

soon and dump Ryder!
