My mother-in-law pointed at me in a fit of rage, her face filled with disgust. She shouted at the top of her lungs, as if I were the one destroying Wang Xu's family.
"Zhuang Jun! You vixen, stop clinging to my son! If you do anything to my grandson, I will take you down with me! You will not confuse my son any longer! As long as I am alive, there will never be you!"
"Don't think my son will listen to you again! Unless you kill me first! Unless you kill me first!"
My mother-in-law cursed me fiercely, her words dripping with disdain and contempt. The curious gazes of my colleagues around me offered no sympathy.
I felt an even deeper chill.
Aside from Sister Lu, none of my colleagues, not even Lu Ming, probably knew that I was married. With my mother-in-law barging into my workplace and hurling such insults, who would believe that this was the same woman I had once tried so hard to please, and that I was her legitimate daughter-in-law?
Since marrying into the Wang Family, I had provided her with a life free from any burdens. Whenever she felt unwell, aside from Wang Xu, I was the one who worried the most. I knew all her preferences by heart and catered to her every need. Yet here she was, publicly humiliating me.
It felt as if all the kindness I had shown her in the past was now being mocked, ridiculing my weakness and humility, laughing at how my goodwill had been taken for granted, and mocking my longing for the good life we once shared.
My heart felt colder than ever. If Deng Xiaomei had done more for her than I had, I still wouldn't accept this humiliation. Just because Deng Xiaomei was pregnant didn't mean everything I had done should be dismissed!
I had devoted myself to serving her well, only to lose face in front of my new colleagues!
Did my mother-in-law ever acknowledge me as her daughter-in-law? Was there ever a moment when she recognized Zhuang Jun's existence? It wasn't until today’s public humiliation that I realized our marriage certificate meant nothing to her! In her eyes, I was just a vixen!
Deng Xiaomei truly lived a life that I could only dream of—a life where she could command others at will.
The security guard finally escorted my mother-in-law out, and one after another, my colleagues left the meeting room. I sat in my seat, lost in thought, not even noticing when Lu Ming left. When I finally looked around, I was the only one left.
I thought my heart had gone numb, but little did I know that things could get worse. I forced a smile, thinking I should start looking for a new job; otherwise, Zhuang Jun would be left with nothing but an empty shell.
It's laughable to think that I completely entrusted my life to Wang Xu, which led to my current predicament. If given the chance to choose again, I would definitely not marry Wang Xu; I was only drawn to the love we shared back in school.
When Wang Xu and I transitioned from love to marriage, our marriage tainted the pure love we once had.
The innocence and beauty are just memories now, and what I face now is a living hell.
Time dragged on, and until it was dark outside, no one came into the meeting room to call for me. I had no idea how my colleagues were discussing me just a wall away after the farce. All I wanted was to go home, kneel before my father, confess everything, end this, and escape.
I considered this job lost; I didn't know how long this joke would circulate among them. Suddenly, the silence of the meeting room was broken by the sound of my phone vibrating. I picked it up and saw it was a call from Wang Xu.
Without hesitation, I answered. Before Wang Xu could say anything, I spoke first.
"Wang Xu, let's get a divorce."
