His sharp eyes locked onto hers as he said coldly, “Shirley, I’m giving you an opportunity right now. If you want to leave, I won’t
stop you. I’ll return everything from Weiss Group to you.”
His words drained the color from Shirley’s face. She struggled to respond. “A- are you saying you want a divorce?”
He replied, “If that’s what you want, we can go to the courthouse right now.”
Benjamin’s voice was calm and indifferent, devoid of any emotion, as if he were discussing someone else’s affairs.
How could he say such things so casually?
“I don’t want to. Benjamin, I’m already your wife. We’ve shared such intimacy. How can you mention divorce so easily?

“But I never mentioned a word to him about everything i completely.”
Benjamin showed no sign of sympathy or softening as he stared at her pale face. “I’ll only give you this chance once. Think

With that said, he tore the
Shirley’s hands clenched tightly, her delicate face drained of color.
She couldn’t tell how much of Benjamin’s words were sincere and how much was a test. But she knew how terrifying the
consequences of betraying him would be. He had once said that if she deceived him, he would destroy the Weiss family entirely,
