“Bonnie, you’d better stop it, continuing to entangle yourself will only make you more embarrassed.”
I looked at her coldly, without a trace of warmth in my tone.
She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, “Grace, what do you have to be so proud of!”
I was too lazy to argue with her anymore, so I directly dialed Antonio’s phone in front of her.
Almost as soon as I finished dialing, the call was connected on the other end.
“Antonio, can you please come and take your mistress away? She has been affecting my normal work.”
My voice was not loud, but it was enough to be heard by everyone in the coffee shop.
As soon as the words fell, the surrounding gazes all turned towards me.
Bonnie’s face turned pale instantly, clearly not expecting me to be so direct.
She stood in place, at a loss, as if she had suddenly become a human target, being stared at by countless strange eyes.
“I will be there soon.”
Antonio’s voice came through the phone, carrying a hint of

panic.
I sneered and continued speaking.

“Also, I will give you one more week, and it’s better for you to sign it quickly, otherwise I will have to take legal action.”
After saying that, I hung up the phone without any hesitation.
Bonnie was being stared at by so many people, her face burning hot. She couldn’t stop me anymore and could only watch me leave with wide eyes.
Back at the company, colleagues casted gossipy glances one after another.
Although no one directly asked, I knew that their minds were already filled with curiosity.
Rather than letting them speculate behind my back, I would rather clarify things myself.
I said calmly.
“Everyone, you may have all seen what just happened.”
Let me explain briefly, my husband cheated on me, and the other woman is already pregnant. Today, she came to our house to cause trouble.
“I didn’t want this matter to affect my work, so I hope everyone can understand.”
As the words fell, silence filled the office.
The crowd’s gaze towards me was filled with a little less suspicion and a little more sympathy.

But I didn’t need their sympathy.

I nodded and turned back to my own workstation, continuing to bury myself in work.
For me at the moment, working hard is the most important thing.
The failure of marriage did not define my life; I still had my own career and life to manage.
Not long after, Antonio’s phone rang.
I glanced at the screen and immediately pressed the mute button.
He came to see me now, just wanting to explain.
But for me, it was meaningless.
The afternoon’s work was still busy, and I was fully focused on handling the project at hand.
At the end of the workday, Antonio suddenly appeared at the company’s entrance.
His face darkened, and he looked at me with a complex gaze.
“Grace, let’s talk.”
I lifted my head, my tone cold.
“If it’s about Bonnie, then forget it.”
“I have already made it clear, sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible, otherwise we will see each other in court.”

“Grace, I know I let you down, but things weren’t as you thought.”
“Give me a little more time, and I will make sure she doesn’t appear in front of you again.”
“Antonio,” I interrupted him, my tone devoid of any fluctuation.
“I didn’t care about your matters, please don’t disturb my life anymore.”
After saying that, I picked up my bag and walked straight past him, leaving.
Antonio stood in place, seeming to want to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
When I got on the car, I always felt that his eyes just now were strange.
Just a thought crossed my mind, maybe I was overthinking.
