Ye Cheng felt as though his heart was being strangled; he could not breathe. “Y-you… You mean, you
had other men as well?”
Gao Wen laughed. She laughed so hard that her body began to rock back and forth. “Of course. Of
course, I had other men. Otherwise, how would I spend the long lonely nights? How would I ease my
loneliness then? I’m human. I’m made of flesh and blood. My husband was outside, fooling around. Am
I supposed to sleep in our bed alone and wait for him? Do you think I’m a fool?” This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Ye Cheng’s entire body grew cold. He suppressed the pain in his heart and asked, “Why didn’t you
divorce him? Leave him and find your own happiness. Why did you have to humiliate yourself in that
manner?”
Gao Wen choked on the wine before she laughed again. Her hands that were clutching the wine bottle
were cold and sticky as she reached out and touched Ye Cheng’s face. She chuckled before she said,
“My silly son, how can I get a divorce? What would happen to me if I’d gotten a divorce? I’m not a
strong and independent woman with a career of her own. If I’d gotten a divorce, I’d only be able to live
on his alimony. What would happen if I couldn’t support myself?”
Gao Wen laughed before she took another swig from the wine bottle again. “Isn’t it great that I didn’t
get a divorce? Look at how we’re cheating on each other. Since he liked beautiful young women, I
looked for handsome younger men as well. It’s easy when you have the money to buy men. The Ye
family has plenty of money so I can spend it as I please.” She giggled before she continued to say,
“Didn’t you say a woman’s greatest blessing is to be able to spend as she pleases?”
Ye Cheng had grown numb from his mother’s confessions. The woman in front of him felt like a
stranger at this moment.
Gao Wen continued to laugh and laugh before her laughter suddenly turned into tears as her mood
took a sudden turn. “No, no, sometimes happiness can’t be bought with money. A woman without love
is just like a withered flower. The men don’t love me. Ye He doesn’t love me. How could he love me
when he goes out to look for those dirty women?”
“And that man… That man doesn’t love me either. I once thought that as long as he asked me to get a
divorce, I would divorce Ye He. It didn’t matter if that man didn’t divorce his wife; I was willing to stay by
his side even if I had no status. However, he didn’t say anything. He didn’t want me, and he didn’t love
me. He only liked the thrill of having an affair with me. In his eyes, there was only that independent
woman. He loved that woman so much. I can’t figure it out. Why did he love that woman so much? Did
he like their daughter? That cute elf-like girl? I gave birth to his daughter too. She’s so pretty as well.
Why couldn’t he love me even if it was just a little bit?” Gao Wen’s voice was filled with pain.
“What’s funny is that he actually got a divorce! That strong and independent woman divorced him! Ye
Cheng, what’s wrong with the world? He loved his wife so much, but she insisted on divorcing him! She
didn’t want him anymore because he had an affair and his mistress gave birth to a son for him!”
“What about me? I gave birth to a daughter for him as well! Why didn’t he get a divorce for me? I would
have accepted if he didn’t get a divorce because he loved his wife. However, he actually divorced his
beloved wife and married another woman who gave birth to a son for him!”
“All my life, I’d suffered all kinds of losses. I gave birth to a son, but I still couldn’t obtain my husband’s
love. I gave birth to a daughter, but I also couldn’t obtain that man’s love! Is there anyone more unlucky
than I am? Is there?”
Gao Wen reached up and wiped her tears away. “I really hate them. I hate them so much I wish they’re
all dead! Dead!”
Then, she began to laugh hysterically again as she drank from the wine bottle and clutched it to her
chest as though she was holding onto a life-saving raft.
Meanwhile, Ye Cheng’s legs had grown numb. He did not have the strength to stand up at all..
