Chapter 469 Who Can Stand It?
The Gray Family.
Steven answered when he saw Salma’s call.
He spoke first. “Have you come to your senses?” Salma cried and said, “I have realized my mistake. I admit that I was wrong before.”
“I shouldn’t have been sentimental about our relationship for so many years and taken in Jodie again.”
“Honey, I want to go home.”
“I won’t let Jodie stay with us anymore. Let’s not get divorced, okay?” Steven didn’t expect her to call and
surrender.
But it did seem like her character.
He remained silent for a moment and said, “Sorry, It’s too late.
“I really can’t continue to be with you anymore.”
This was the truth. He feels a strong aversion towards his wife now.
Salma didn’t expect that lowering herself to seek reconciliation would be rejected.
Her voice became sharper. Is it because of Simone? Because of pleasing her, all of you treat me like this.”
“When she didn’t come back to Gray Family, our family was so harmonious.”

“Why did she have to come back? She… Before she could finish, Steven interrupted her, ‘Enough. I want a divorce from you. How can you bring Simone into this?”
Any softness he had left disappeared in her blaming words towards Simone.
“She is our biological daughter, and it’s because of Jodie that she was taken away.”
“And even if Simone didn’t return, as long as Jodie is here, she will cause trouble.”
“Our family’s luck has been taken away by her, and it’s impossible to return to the harmonious state we had before.”
“The so-called harmony and peace were all just a show. Don’t deceive yourself anymore.”
He took a deep breath and said, “It’s because of Jodie that I want a divorce. Don’t always blame the wrong person.
“Simone is no longer a part of the Gray Family, so don’t bring her into everything”
Simone was still his daughter in his heart.
But he can only say this in front of Salma so that she won’t direct all her anger towards Simone.

Salma was stunned for a moment, then shouted, “How can it be a show? I think you’re the one blaming others.”
Steven rubbed his temples and said, “Believe whatever you want, but I have made up my mind to divorce.”
“If you want to cling on and make a fuss, then I will have to take the initiative.”
“If you don’t believe me, you can check my social media later.
“If you still don’t sign the divorce agreement tomorrow, I will directly announce on the official Facebook page of Gray Group that I will sue for divorce.
“I believe that once this Facebook post is released, without me having to expose anything, those paparazzi will be able to dig up everything you’ve done.”
After being together for so many years, Salma knew what kind of person her husband was.
Upon hearing his heartless words, she felt upset, and her face turned pale.
She also knew that he was capable of doing such things. “Do you really have to be so cruel to me?” Steven sighed, “It’s not that I’m being cruel to you. It’s just that I can’t continue with you anymore.”
As Salma became more confused, her personality also became more bitter and sarcastic.
In the future, when their sons get married, she would constantly argue with their daughters-in-law. Who could tolerate that? He was also trying to prevent that from happening.
Salma had a strong sense of self-esteem, and now that Steven had reached this point, she knew that causing a scene would be useless.
Through gritted teeth, she said, “You’re cruel. 1 hate you!” Without even discussing whether she agreed to a divorce, she hung up the phone.
After a while, she checked her social media.
She saw the message Steven posted, which simply said, “We’re getting a divorce, expressing his determination in just four words.
He also announced the divorce publicly, making his intentions clear.
Salma felt heartbroken, and tears kept flowing.
She had been laughing at Melinda before but didn’t expect to follow in her footsteps and become another joke in their circle.
Salma had already given in, but Steven’s attitude remained firm.
She was also afraid of her actions being exposed.
And she had her dignity, too. She couldn’t bring herself to beg
her and plead.
