Mary was in despair when she heard Greg’s words.
“Do you have to be so heartless, Greg?”
Mary pointed at Greg, the pleading look on her face had now turned into one of disgust and
resentment.
“You really are an ungrateful b*stard. I’ve kept you alive and well in my house all these years, I gave
you a roof over your head and clothes to wear. But now you’re just going to leave with someone just
because they’re stronger and more powerful?
“No wonder you’re so determined to sever ties with my family. You’re a horrible excuse for a human
being!”
The more Mary spoke, the angrier she became. “You really are a dog! Calling whoever gives you better
sh*t your master!”
Greg sneered at Mary and replied expressionlessly, “So you admit that you’ve been giving me sh*t,
huh? How long have you forced me to smell it?”
Mary’s expression froze and she shrieked, “What are you saying, Greg?!”
“Those were your words, not mine. All I did was agree. That’s what you wanted all this while, no? So
why? What’s so different today?” Greg spoke icily.
“Forget it, what’s the use of all this noise? The Wellington family has no one to blame but your own
misconduct. You think that just because you’re somewhat rich and powerful that you get to stand above
everyone? There’ll only be richer and more powerful people in the outside world. A few calls were all it
took for Jasper to crush you. What use is regretting it now?”
Mary’s mom suddenly wailed, “God has forsaken us! What is this karma, why does something like this
have to happen to us?”
Shaun asked sourly, “Is there no room for negotiation?”
“Did you give me room to negotiate back then?” Greg sneered.
Then, he turned to Jasper and said, “Let’s go, Jasper.
“There’s nothing worth staying for anymore.”
Jasper nodded and prepared to leave.
Jasper’s eyes fell on Mary and her despondent expression, and he suddenly halted.
“Do you agree to the divorce?”
Mary was stunned for a moment after hearing Jasper’s question. She was about to say something
instinctively but Shaun cut her off. “We agree!”
Shaun walked in front of Mary and spoke to Jasper politely and flatteringly, “They’ll get divorced right
now. No matter the conditions, as long as Greg asks for it, we’ll agree to the terms.”
“What if I want to change my son’s surname to Costa?” Greg suddenly asked.
Shaun clenched his jaw and nodded. “Of course. You’re his father, it’s only right the child takes your
surname.”
“Are… are you crazy, Shaun? This ungrateful b*stard’s caused us so much grief and you’re still
agreeing to his conditions?” Mary shouted.
Shaun glared at Mary and snapped frostily, “Shut up! Don’t talk if you don’t know what’s going on!
“Disagree? What do you think is going to happen if we disagree? Did you forget what happened to the
Zion family? They were much more powerful than our Wellington family when they were still in Brac
County, but what about now? Do you see the Zions anywhere?”
Mary suddenly came to this realization, and she looked at Jasper in fear. She no longer dared to make
a sound.
Looking at Greg, who was Jasper’s best friend, Mary felt true regret for the first time in her life.
Had she treated Greg better over the past few years, or at least treated him with basic respect, the
sentimental man might never have suggested a divorce. With a best friend like Jasper, Mary would
have been able to make a fortune as Greg’s wife.
The thought of this agonized Mary.
Jasper gave Lucas a look that signaled for the latter to wrap things up as he left the house alongside
Greg.
Walking out of the estate, Greg suddenly stood in place blankly.
Jasper did not rush him either, as he waited silently by the side.
