Chapter 348: Chapter 348

She had nothing left, and when she needed support the most, Jared Sullivan demanded she choose between him and their daughter. How could Jared force her ?

Could it really be as Skylar Hughes said, that Jared Sullivan believed she couldn’t survive outside the Sterling Family?

Yvette Hughes recalled what Skylar said, that if she remained firm, Jared would eventually compromise.

Yes, after so many years of feelings, Jared couldn’t possibly divorce her. He was just trying to scare her. She couldn’t be intimidated and had to use this opportunity to make Jared understand that she was truly willing to divorce!

"Fine, divorce, as long as you let Skylar go!"

Yvette stared at Jared, expecting to see shock and disbelief on his face.

But there was nothing, absolutely nothing.

Jared calmly took out the divorce agreement again. "Sign it."

Yvette gritted her teeth tightly and picked up the pen. However, until she finished signing, Jared didn’t try to stop her.

Jared then signed as well, handed the divorce agreement to the lawyer, and took Yvette to complete the divorce procedures. The two were officially divorced.

Even after leaving the civil affairs bureau, Yvette couldn’t quite process it.

She merely wanted to stand up for herself once, to show Jared she wasn’t easy to bully. But why did it end in a real divorce? Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾※𝙣𝙚𝙩

Looking at Jared’s indifferent face, she opened her mouth, "Jared..."

This can’t be real, this can’t be real...

Jared handed her a file bag, "This is the house’s property title and keys. Go back to the Sterling house and pack, I’ll have the driver take you."

Yvette stood there, holding the file bag, utterly confused.

No, no, she didn’t want a divorce...

In the end, both Jared and Paige Sterling withdrew the charges against Skylar Hughes.

And so Skylar was naturally fine.

Skylar didn’t even know this was the price Yvette paid with her divorce, feeling overjoyed in her heart.

See, as long as her mom was Mrs. Sterling, the Sterling Family wouldn’t dare do anything to her.

Her mother was her immunity shield.

She didn’t contact Yvette, after all, as far as she was concerned, Yvette was no use to her now. So she didn’t even know that Yvette and Jared had already divorced, and Yvette had moved out of the Sterling Family.

Yvette’s first goal after gaining freedom was still to marry into the Rowe Family.

So she went straight to the Rowe Family.

She thought that, even in her downfall, marrying someone like Roman Rowe would be easy, she still believed she held the upper hand.

Besides, the Rowe Family was already under public pressure.

However, when she naturally proposed marriage, the faces of the Rowe Family members turned terribly dark. Their first response was to question her—doubting the child was Roman Rowe’s, and then demanding she abort the child in exchange for a sum of money.

Skylar wasn’t an easy woman to deal with either. Even as things were, she didn’t care about sinking the ship. If they wouldn’t take her in, she’d cause a fuss until the Rowe Family was in chaos.

The Rowe Family suspected the child wasn’t Roman’s, so she went for an amniocentesis and slapped the DNA evidence in their faces.

Seeing that Skylar would not rest until she got what she wanted, and considering her mother was still the lady of the Sterling Family, they feared offending Yvette, who might whisper into Jared’s ear, causing trouble for the Rowe Family.

In the end, having no choice, Roman Rowe reluctantly went with Skylar to get their marriage registered, but firmly refused to have a wedding.

Marrying such a woman, didn’t they find it embarrassing?

Skylar was, of course, unsatisfied, but she had no more cards left to play. She didn’t dare make too much of a scene and had to temporarily endure.

Once she gave birth to a son belonging to the Rowe Family, her status would naturally change. By then, she would demand everything she deserved from the Rowe Family.

For such wealthy families, wasn’t the heir what mattered most?

The son she, Skylar Hughes, gave birth to would undoubtedly be the smartest in the world. By then, the Rowe Family would realize how correct marrying her was.

Yet Skylar never expected, after marriage, Roman continued to ignore her, indulging in pleasures away from home, treating her like she was invisible, a mere decoration.

This wasn’t the marriage Skylar wanted.

The marriage she desired—even if her husband wasn’t like Julian Hawthorne—should still be someone who would dutifully cater to her, not treating her like she didn’t exist.

But no matter how much fuss she made, Roman wouldn’t come home. Dad Rowe and Mrs. Rowe didn’t care, frequently casting looks of contempt as if it was entirely her fault that Roman didn’t come home.

In the Rowe Family, Skylar felt like an outsider.

Among the rich kids who hung out with Roman, everyone knew Roman was forced to marry Skylar, and they sympathized with him immensely.

However, someone remarked, "Aren’t you a big fan of God Sterling? You married God Sterling’s sister, so why don’t you seize the opportunity to make an impression in front of God Sterling?"

Roman smirked, "You know their relationship is bad. When we got married, not a single relative from the Sterling Family showed up. Clearly, they strongly despise her. I’m truly unlucky, trapped by such a woman."

Blame himself for not controlling his urges; Skylar only needed to seduce him a bit, and he couldn’t resist, leading to his current unhappy marriage.

"So what if their relationship is bad? Officially, you are her brother-in-law. As long as you thicken your skin, there are no unbuildable connections. Right now, Miles Morgan and others are having a blast hanging out with God Sterling. If only you could grab a little bit of that, your parents wouldn’t always berate you for being useless. By then, we could also benefit from you."

Upon thinking that way, it seemed that marrying Skylar wasn’t entirely useless.

So, Skylar quickly noticed that her previously indifferent husband suddenly began to be attentive toward her.

Skylar believed her charm had finally worked, causing the prodigal son of a wealthy family to turn around and become devoted.

However, all he talked about was God Sterling.

"Honey, when are we going to visit God Sterling? You two are sisters, you should stay in touch often."

"Honey, look, God Sterling has been listed again on the influential person list worldwide."

"Honey, look, God Sterling announced another breakthrough in black technology at the press conference today. God Sterling is incredible."

"Honey, look, God Sterling is so amazing. You grew up with her; how come you haven’t been influenced by her at all?"

To Skylar, these words were incredibly piercing.

With her pride, how could she tolerate her husband turning into Paige Sterling’s sycophant?

At that moment, she wanted nothing more than to kill Paige and this sycophant right before her!
