"Why not?" Edith laughed without anger.
"We clearly agreed to divorce once the suitable time arrived, but now you're repeatedly clinging to me again!"
Hearing this, Alston waved his hand dismissively, "Say whatever you like, but I'm not going to divorce you!"
"Very well, then let us wait for an automatic divorce!"
As long as the two lived apart for long enough, Edith could get an automatic divorce from Alston.
"It won't sound good when it gets out!"
Edith believed Alston would care about his reputation, so he would take the initiative to divorce her.
But to her surprise, not only did Alston not compromise, he became even more determined not to divorce.
Naturally, Edith couldn't stand it.
So she began acting out everywhere and ruining Alston's reputation.
First she complained to her close friend, then gradually escalated to slandering Alston's character.
Many people came to know about this matter.
