Listen Audiobook Version:



It had started to drizzle.

The grass was lush and green. It felt soft under one's feet. The drizzle
was like fog that hung over the whole mountain and made it look a bit
surreal.

The funeral was simple and most attendees were the old Maskelyne's
friends and relatives as well as business partners of the Maskelyne
family.

The white lilies looked even purer and whiter under the wash of the
rain, surrounding the tombstone.

Sylvia got off the car, held a black umbrella, and walked towards the
crowd.

Franklin had arrived, wearing a black suit, standing straight with his
mouth shut.

It was the first time Sylvia had ever seen something else instead of
indifference on his face.

His eyes were red rimmed and he was standing in the front row of the
crowd.

She knew that the old Maskelyne raised Franklin up, so he had been
very close with the old Maskelyne.

Sylvia walked over and put down the lilies in her hand.

There was melancholy in her eyes. The old Maskelyne had been very
kind to her and he had always treated her like she was his
granddaughter.

What a pity that she couldn't get a chance to pay him back in this life.
She slowly bent over and took three bows.

Her dress had gotten wet in the rain, but she didn't look embarrassed at
all. She was thin and beautiful, like a shade of light in the dark.

Who was this beautiful woman?

What was the relationship between her and the Maskelyne family?

No one but Franklin among the younger generation of the Maskelyne
family had taken three bows.

Everyone looked at Sylvia in shock.

Even Franklin was shocked. Sylvia...

He didn't know she had been this close to his grandfather.

Sylvia never liked being around too many people. After that, she was
about to leave.

She came and left in a hurry, mysterious.

"Sylvia, stop there!"

Behind her, an angry scream came.

Sylvia stopped and withdrew her sight.

Soon, a tall teenager rushed over and stopped in front of her.

He said in an unfriendly tone, "Sylvia, you should leave the Maskelyne
family as soon as you can! You don't have grandpa protecting you
now!"

“Is there anything else? I need to go now," Sylvia said calmly.

The teenager in front of her was James Maskelyne, the Maskelyne
family's second son, Franklin's half-brother.

Only the old Maskelyne and Franklin's brother and sister knew about
her marriage to Franklin.

"Who do you think you are?"

James was pissed. However, he had never defeated Sylvia at
quarreling before. No matter what he said, she always didn't seem to
care.

She saw him as a child, which pissed him off!

Moreover, she was very good at pretending. She always looked sweet
in front of Franklin and their grandfather.

She became a different person without Franklin's presence, but
Franklin could never see it.

He couldn't let her deceive his brother anymore!

"You say the same words every time. Can't you say something new?"
Sylvia looked up at James.

Then, she got in the car and left.

Damn it! James stamped his feet in anger. She ignored him again!
She was as arrogant as always!

"Miss Andrews, this is the divorcement paper, sign it and you will be
officially divorced."

Jasper Howlett, Franklin's assistant, gave Sylvia a document.

"Okay." Sylvia signed without even reading it.

Jasper was stunned. He had been prepared for any requests Sylvia
might make.

However, she didn't say anything at all. She agreed on it shockingly
readily.

He had been working for Franklin for years and he was one of the few
people who knew about his marriage with Sylvia. He had had a good
impression of Sylvia.

Deep inside, he thought of Sylvia and Franklin as a perfect match.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want his boss and Sylvia to
divorce, but he was an outsider and he had no say in this.

"Miss Andrews, when you married Mr. Maskelyne, you signed a pre-up,
do you remember it?"

"Of course. His properties wouldn't have anything to do with me and I
wouldn't get a penny out of the divorce." Sylvia smiled and understood
what Jasper meant. "Don’t worry, I'm not a greedy person.”

They got married just to get what they want.

And now, it was only natural that they got a divorce.

She could live without Franklin.

After walking out of the coffee house, Sylvia went to the Pearlhall Villa
that Logan had purchased for her, it was a bit far from downtown but it
was close to the river.

When the several men in black in the villa saw her, they bowed to greet
her respectfully.

Sylvia nodded at them and walked into the house.

The second Logan saw her, he came up to her. "Boss."

“I'm divorced." Sylvia smiled. Her gorgeous face made Logan's heart
skip a beat.

She sat on the sofa, opened the laptop on the table, and started typing.
She had hacked into the transportation system and deleted every trace
of her she had left on her way here.

After all this was done, she raised her eyes, only to find that Logan was
staring at her.

She frowned. "Why are you standing there?"

"Boss, are you really divorced?" Logan was dumbfounded. Why did she
say it as if it was nothing at all?

It was marriage, a matter of life!

"You know the reason I got married, don't you?" Sylvia crooked her
finger at him. "Hurry up and give me the sales report for this quarter.”
Logan was a tall and handsome man. He had a completely different
temperament than Franklin's. Franklin was indifferent while Logan was
outgoing and sunny.

For all these years he had been Sylvia's trusted subordinate.

It didn't take long. After a few minutes, Logan handed Sylvia a
document.

She lowered her head and began to leaf through it.

Logan was still in shock. “I mean, your husband was Franklin, the
charming captain of the SouthStar Airlines, the president of the
Maskelyne group and he has a face that is a piece of art! Are you
willing to let him go?"

Sylvia raised her eyes and glanced at him. "Say one more word and I'll
toss you into the sea to feed the sharks."

Hearing this, Logan immediately stopped talking.

He would offend anyone but this woman, since he couldn't bear the
consequence.

Ten minutes later, Sylvia handed the document back to Logan. “The
sales are ten percent higher than the last quarter and five percent
higher than my estimation.”

“It's all thanks to your wisdom, boss." Logan didn't look like the calm
and composed CEO in front of others at all now and kept flattering
Sylvia.

Sylvia glanced at him. "Stop flattering me. I'm going back to my room to
sleep now."

“You aren't going back to the Townyer Villa?" Logan was stunned.

"I have signed on the divorcement paper. Why should I go back there?"
Sylvia stood on the staircase and looked down at Logan, looking at him
as if he had said something stupid.
