resources for nothing in exchange. It was because they knew my worth.
Unlike him, they didn’t think women could only be successful by sleeping their way up.

Chapter 7 Finalized
The look on Lawrence’s face changed a few times. In the end, he said hoarsely, “So you knew. You didn’t have to get the divorce, then. I never cheated on you, and I never wanted a divorce.”
I rolled my eyes. “Do you really think infidelity is the only reason anyone gets a divorce?”
Lawrence answered drily, “I won’t let anyone bully you again, but you have to stay away from other men as well. You cannot accept any intimate scenes. If you have other terms, we can talk it out.”
I refused without hesitation, “Sorry, no. I’m rich, beautiful, and smart. I can live life however I want, and I refuse to play pretend–couple with someone I hate. You’d better come to city hall in two days. We’re finalizing our divorce, or I’ll tell everyone that Melissa slept with her clients to net you your resources. It’ll hit the company harder, don’t you think?”
Lawrence was flushed with rage. Satisfied with his reaction, I turned to leave. Two days later, the divorce was finalized as I had hoped, and I terminated my contract with Starlight Entertainment.
When I first signed the contract, I made it clear that I only had to pay 1,500 if any breach of contract were to happen. Lawrence had no objections since he thought I would never leave him. It was too late for regrets now.
