Chapter 80 Sophia glanced at the divorce agreement and scoffed .
Carol wants to divorce you ? I really underestimated her .
What , shes jealous because you defended me that day ? So now shes pulling this ridiculous stunt faking her own death and throwing a divorce in your face , just to manipulate you into staying by her side ? How pathetic .
} She folded her arms and smirked .

Honestly , her timing is disgusting .
Today is Bennys Bar and she chooses today of all days to stir up trouble ? Is she trying to bring bad luck to our son just because hers is gone? Benny , who had been silent until now , picked up the flash drive with a look of disdain .
Dad , women like her are a dime a dozen .
They act all dramatic , pretend to break up or commit suicide , then turn around and post some sappy , tear stained selfie on social media just to guilt trip a man into crawling back .
Its pathetic .
The uglier they are , the more ridiculous their antics .
Sophia chuckled approvingly .
Thats my boy ! You can sniff out a green tea bitch from a mile away .
As mother and son laughed together , Willys frown deepened .
This was the second time Benny had openly insulted Carol and it unsettled him .
At first , he had dismissed it as the bluntness of a young boy , but now … Sophia should have corrected him , should have taught him basic respect .
Instead , she encouraged it .
She reveled in it .
Willys stomach twisted uncomfortably .
Carol was never like this .
She raised Little Treasure to be kind , to be polite .
She had always believed in teaching by example .
Something sour and unidentifiable settled in his chest as he turned to look at Sophia again .
The warm admiration he once felt for her it wasnt there anymore .
But before he could say anything , Benny , still eager to prove his point , plugged the flash drive into the events big screen and hit play .
The room fell silent .
A single audio file began to play .
The moment Willy heard the voice , his entire body went rigid .
I confess ! I confess to everything! Mr.
Nelson gave me five million dollars and ordered me to pretend to be mentally ill- to stab Miss Shirley and her son .
He said to make sure the little brat died because he wanted to clear the way for his and Sophias son to take over … And when I went to collect the money , I overheard him telling the doctor to remove Miss Shirleys uterus he didnt want her to ever have another child ! The words echoed in the vast banquet hall , each syllable slamming into Willy like a physical blow .
The blood drained from his face .
No.
No , this couldnt be happening .
His hands trembled as he grabbed the flash drive , staring at the date of the recording .
Three days ago .
Carol … Carol had known everything for three days .
She had been planning to leave him all along .
His heart pounded violently in his chest .
He had convinced himself that he had been careful , that he had concealed everything perfectly .
But she knew .
She had known .
And she had still stood before him , still spoken to him so calmly .
Willy stumbled back two steps , his mind spinning .
How had she felt when she heard the truth ? How much pain had she swallowed , how much betrayal had she endured ? This wasnt how things were supposed to go .
He had thought he could hand the company to Benny , make up for the years he owed Sophia and her son and then spend the rest of his life with Carol , keeping her by his side .
But now , everything was crumbling .
The hall erupted into chaos .
Gasps , whispers , outright scornful remarks filled the air .
I knew something was off ! Why would President Lu give the company to an outsider ? Turns out , hes been raising an illegitimate son in secret ! To think he had his own child killed to clear the way for a bastard ! Absolutely revolting ! And that Sophia … dressing in all red to a funeral ? Saying she didnt have time to change ? Who does she think shes fooling ? If she had time to buy designer bags , she had time to grab a black dress .
It was deliberate ! She wanted to provoke Carol ! Ugh , disgusting ! I hope karma gets her .
The murmurs grew into outright condemnation , turning into a tidal wave of disgust and judgment .
Sophias face went pale .
Desperate , she turned to Willy with teary eyes .
Willy , say something ! Theyre slandering me ! Defend me ! But the man who had once gone to any lengths to protect her … now seemed miles away .
Willy didnt even glance at her .
He turned on his heel and strode toward the exit , his mind consumed with only one thought .
Carol .
Where was she ? He had to find her .
Now .
