Chapter 6
Michael’s face changed instantly when he heard what I just said,
“Got married? To whom did you marry? You’re my wife! How could you marry someone else?” Immediately, he ignored Regina completely and rushed over to me.
He ordered me, “Tell me what’s going on! Right now!”
Jealousy flickered in Regina’s eyes, but she still forced a smile and stepped closer to him.”
“Michael, that marriage certificate looks strange… maybe it’s just a prop?”
She looked at me with mock pity and said, “Evelyn must be afraid you’ve really let her go, so she staged this to get your attention.” Her words seemed to calm Michael. After that, he scanned me from head to toe. Then, he sneered.
He mockingly said, “Yeah, who would want garbage like Evelyn?”
After that, he continued to bash me, “Everyone in our circle knows you’re just a loser who will always obey me. Who’d want a secondhand disgrace like you besides me?”
Nine years with him was hell. It was nine years of shame and struggle. For the time period, I had been a laughingstock to the entire upper class.8
But that time was over!
Even the staff, at the Town Hall, who had known Michael and me for years, Ipst–tracked my paperwork and offered their blessings. So, when Michael insulted me again, someone behind us knocked on the desk in s, were happy for me when I came to get married today. They Imitation.
“Oh, Mr. Pumell, an older woman said sternly.
She then firmly continued, “Marriage is sacred, Who would joke about that?”
“Miss Cooke’s certificate is real. It’s stamped and official. Besides, her new husband is a tall, handsome and highly educated man. Obviously, a thousand times better of a man than some spoiled rich brats.”
Michael’s expression darkened further with every word the staff said.
This time, Michael didn’t threaten me with the Purnell Family’s power. He just reached out and tried to snatch the marriage certificate from
my hand. It looked very childish.!!
“I don’t believe it. I won’t believe anyone would dare go against the Purnell Family to steal my woman.”
“Even if you’re just something I threw away, I won’t let anyone else have you, I want to see who’s got the guts, I’ll destroy them by tomorrow.”
My body hadn’t fully healed, so I wasn’t strong enough to resist.
Without further ado, Michael quickly grabbed the certificate from my hands and opened it. He was ready to tear it apart. But when he saw the name, the words caught in his throat.
“You married him? How … how could it be him–7
Just then, a tall figure stepped up beside me.
The man held a bouquet of fresh roses in one hand, while his other hand had gently wrapped my waist.
“Don’t be afraid,” he said softly.
After that, he continued, “I’m here.“W

Michael turned completely pale. He then looked at me again as if he to wake himself from a bad dream. Meanwhile, Regina was still clueless, tugged at his sleeve.}
“Michael, why are you staring at Evelyn? Do you still have feelings for her?”
“She can marry whoever she wants. It’s not like it matters anymore. You two are divorced. Let’s just get our marriage certificate. I can’t wait to marry you.”
But this time, her sweet voice did nothing for him.!!
Michael pushed Regina away without hesitation.
His voice cracked as he asked me, “Evelyn. this isn’t real, is it?“)
“I was wrong. I won’t fool around anymore. Let’s just go home. Till be good, I swear.”
