B City, South City villa district, Yue Xi Bay number one.
"Madam, your intra-city express delivery." Ye Nanxun had just returned from her morning run outside.
Intra-city express delivery?
From whom?
She casually tore open the seal, ready to go upstairs to take a bath. As she walked, she stopped dead in her tracks in the middle of the stairway.
A divorce agreement?
Receiving something like this first thing in the morning, it was quite a sharp and stimulating start to the day.
Downstairs behind her.
The Zhou Family patriarch, Zhou Haotian, looked up from downstairs with puzzlement at the sight of his daughter-in-law standing midway up the stairs, "Nanxun, what are you doing standing in the middle of the staircase?"
Gathering the delivery in her hands calmly, she turned towards the people downstairs with a slight smile, "Grandfather, it's nothing. I'm going to take a bath first, and I'll join you for breakfast later."
Since Ye Nanxun married into the Zhou family, she had never missed joining the patriarch for breakfast. This habit had persisted for two years, unfortunately, it could not continue.
The room on the third floor of the Zhou Family villa was originally one man's room. Later, it became their wedding room, and now it almost belonged solely to Ye Nanxun. This was only because the man was rarely home. Each time he returned, he was only passionate for physical activities and never in the mood for conversation.
Often, she didn't understand why, though he always seemed dissatisfied with her, he still hurriedly pressed her down in the throes of desire each time.
Anyway, she enjoyed it. The first time she saw him, she was attracted only by his physique, which later resulted in an extended two-year relations.
Regrettably, that chance would not present itself in the future.
Returning to her room, rather than rushing to take a bath, she took out the divorce agreement from the express mail bag and began to carefully read the content of the agreement.
Seeing the compensation clause, she couldn't help but sneer.
"The man's pretty generous."
A mansion in Hai Lan Bay, two top-level residential duplex houses in the city's Shengshi Yicheng compound, a shop front in the city center, twenty million in cash.
As long as she signs her name, Ye Nanxun, on this agreement, she will effortlessly be amongst the wealthy in an instance.
All of a sudden, she came to understand why so many women wish to marry into wealthy families.
Just that it happened so suddenly, without any warning.
Could it be because that famous actress is back in the country now?
The divorce agreement didn't bother her for too long. The most important thing is to have a meal. First, she would finish her breakfast and then deal with these headache-inducing matters.
After breakfast.
Ye Nanxun looked at the patriarch with a smile, "Grandfather, I need to go out today, I probably won't be able to return in time to have lunch with you."
"Alright, I've always told you that young people should get out more, and not be cooped up at home all day. Enjoy yourself today and don't come back until evening." He then began urging her to go out.
In the end, Ye Nanxun declined the family's chauffeur and left alone in her car.
What she was going to do next was not suitable for outsiders to be present.
Inside the villa where she left.
The patriarch listened to the sound of the car fading in the distance, and heaved a small sigh, "Akun, do you think my decision was wrong when I let that scoundrel marry Nanxun two years ago?"
Akun, the man being addressed, had accompanied the patriarch since he was young. Now, he was a person of significant influence within the Zhou Family. With his capabilities, he could have been independent by now, but he did not wish to; instead, he chose to stay within the Zhou Family.
He was more clear than anyone else about the Zhou Family matters and what happened two years ago, "Patriarch, under those circumstances back then, marriage was the best choice. If you really feel guilty towards Madam, you can take better care of her in the future."
The patriarch's health had been deteriorating over the last few years, and almost every important matter was kept from him. However, Akun was an exception to this; there were hardly any Zhou Family matters that he was unaware of. Just like recently, he heard that Young Master was planning to divorce Madam, and that the person from Xia Family has returned to the country.
