The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 746

“We'll head into the city first thing tomorrow morning to be with you.”

“No need, I have a good friend keeping me company. Plus, after he and I finalize the divorce, I'm heading to Orenth for work.”

“As long as you're happy.”

Marin hung up the phone, feeling significantly more at ease.

“I was terrified about how I was going to break the news to my parents, but Ellison actually solved that problem for me,” she told Penelope.

“If Ellison went as far as calling your parents, it means he won't let you go easily,” Penelope analyzed.

Marin frowned. “I know he won't make this divorce simple. It's not because he actually cares about our marriage, but because his company desperately needs me.”

“Then this is where you need to play hardball.” Penelope forwarded the secretly recorded video of Ellison and Lavinia's bedroom escapades to Marin. “You need to use this video at exactly the right moment. Throw your pride out the window and be fully prepared to get your hands dirty.”

Marin understood Penelope's meaning. She took a deep breath and called Ellison.

“Honey, I really know I messed up. Just give me one more chance. I've already fired Lavinia, and I swear on my life I will never contact her again.”

“Tomorrow morning, nine o'clock. Meet me at city hall,” Marin said coldly.

“What do you mean? You're really divorcing me?”

“Yes, I'm divorcing you.”

“I don't agree. We've been married for so many years, and I make one mistake and you want a divorce? You're being too ruthless! I've already realized my mistake and I've fixed it. I am absolutely not divorcing you!”

“You should know what I have on you.”

“What... what are you going to do?”

“If I don't see you at the courthouse at nine tomorrow morning, I will upload that video to the company's internal server. Mr. Jeffries' image has always been so towering and noble to our colleagues. I wonder if they'll still be able to look you in the eye after seeing that, or if you'll even have the face to show up at work.”
