“Is there a difference?” Chengye sighed. “Jiang Xun’s proposal was also to cut Chengye Group’s losses and protect my position.”
“I don’t agree!” Nianzhen pushed away Aunt Zhang, who was supporting her. “I don’t agree to the divorce!”
“I’m going to call Jixuan. I’m going to tell Yuexi.” Nianzhen panicked and went to look for her phone.
Jixuan and Yuexi were both in school.
“Jixuan is in class. Why do you want to disturb him?” Chengye grabbed Nianzhen’s arm. “Can you calm down?”!!
“You’re going to divorce me. Why should I calm down?” Nianzhen said loudly. “You want to divorce me just because of one sentence from Jiang Xun! Why didn’t I see you value Jiang Xun so much in the past?”
“Actually, it’s just a divorce, nothing else will change. How you live now will be how you live after the divorce,” Chengye said calmly to Nianzhen, “I’ll give you enough money every month to keep your current lifestyle.”
“Then can I still live here?” Nianzhen asked.
Chengye paused. “Of course not. There will be a large number of reporters coming to take pictures, and it will last for a long time. They will take pictures of our divorce, but if you are still living here, isn’t that a joke? Everyone will think that we had a fake divorce.”
“Fake divorce?” Nianzhen’s eyes lit up with hope. She grabbed Chengye’s arm, and her fingertips unconsciously turned white.
Chengye was hurt by her grip and frowned. Just as he wanted her to let go, he heard Nianzhen say, “Are you going to fake divorce me?”
Chengye thought that it would be better to pacify her for now. He covered her hand that was holding his arm and patted it lightly. “Of course. But we still have to get a divorce certificate.”
Seeing Nianzhen’s expression change again, Chengye quickly explained, “The netizens nowadays are no worse than the paparazzi. If we don’t get a divorce certificate and they find out, things will only get worse.”
“Let’s get a divorce certificate first. There are so many houses that our family owns. Where would you like to live? Choose one and live there. I’ll give you the same amount of money as I give you every month now. It won’t change.”
Nianzhen sneered in her heart. How could it not change?
She used to be Mrs. Jiang, the wife of a wealthy family. She was not afraid to go out and socialize with the wives of wealthy families.
However, after the divorce, she was nothing. Would any of those snobbish wives of wealthy families even care about her?
They would even laugh at her behind her back, laughing at her children!
Sensing Nianzhen’s change, Chengye shook her hand away, rubbed his arm, and said with a sullen face, “The divorce is necessary. Let’s go and settle this matter today.”
“It’s not that easy to get a divorce from you!” Nianzhen saw that Chengye was determined to get a divorce, so she stopped saying anything about not wanting to get the divorce.
Chengye insisted on getting a divorce, and she couldn’t control him.
During their marriage, he didn’t cheat on her, and it wasn’t the fault of the marriage.
Going through the legal process to get a bigger share of the family assets wasn’t a big win for her.
In a flash, Nianzhen thought through a lot.
She forced herself to calm down. She took a deep breath and said, “Divorce is fine, but the division of assets should be made clear.”
Chengye sneered. He had underestimated Nianzhen to be able to recover from the panic of the divorce so quickly and talk about the division of assets.
“When we got married, we signed a prenuptial agreement. I will follow the content of the prenuptial agreement. The agreement clearly states everything that should be given to you. I won’t give you anything less,” Chengye said coldly.
If Nianzhen didn’t mention it, he would still feel guilty, so it was fine to give her more.
But now, Nianzhen didn’t want to take any more money!
“I also want some real estate!” Nianzhen said. “When we first got married, how could your property be compared to what it is now? There is a villa in the capital and a big flat, as well as two shops. I don’t want more. I just want these.”
“There are already quite a lot of things for you in the agreement,” Chengye said in a low voice.
In addition to cash and monthly maintenance, the agreement already included three properties, four shops, and a franchise store for a chain of milk tea brands.
Nianzhen didn’t need to manage these things at all. She had people to help manage them. She only needed to collect money, which was enough for her financial freedom.
“I told you, your current assets cannot be compared to what they were back then,” Nianzhen said. “I gave birth to your children. Now that I am old, you want to kick me out without caring about our husband and wife relationship at all. You have to give me these. Otherwise, I will not divorce you. I will even publicize the fact that you will abandon your first wife for the sake of your career.”
