Max-Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey-Chapter 62 - : The Ancestor Continues to Sting

Chapter 62: Chapter 62: The Ancestor Continues to Sting

While Xia Xin’s mind raced with chaotic thoughts, Jiangli whispered beside him, “Don’t worry, nothing bad will happen.”

Xia Xin was startled.

As if to prove Jiangli’s words, shortly after they had been spoken, Cao Jiadong took a deep breath and said, “We’re getting a divorce.”

Wang Lijuan looked at him in shock.

Cao Jiadong glared into Wang Lijuan’s eyes, still fuming, “We definitely can’t continue like this! I admit, I have wronged you, it was my fault first, but now you don’t have me in your heart, and I don’t have you in mine either, plus you tried to kill me. I certainly can’t turn a blind eye to this, so, Wang Lijuan, we’re getting a divorce.”

The Cao Family members were severely shaken.

...

“Dad—”

Cao Jiadong ignored his children and continued, “In the divorce, the property will be split half and half. Even though I have wronged you, you also wanted my life. Half and half of the property should be fair, right? Can you accept that?”

Wang Lijuan was stunned, “You… you are actually willing…” She couldn’t help asking, “You, you won’t sue me?”

“I really wanted to sue you and Bi Yamin.” Cao Jiadong’s throat moved violently as he suppressed his anger, “But over the years, it hasn’t been easy for you either, I really have wronged you, Lijuan. I suddenly remembered that before we got married, I promised to treat you well and to grow old with you.”

Wang Lijuan brought her hand up to cover her face, sobbing quietly.

“Growing old together, we can’t manage now. Let this be my final reparation.”

Cao Jiadong took a few deep breaths, his voice had already become very steady.

“If you agree, we can go through the divorce proceedings tomorrow. Whomever you want to be with, you can be with them, but Bi Yamin can no longer stay at the company.”

Wang Lijuan didn’t speak and kept crying softly.

Cao Jiadong watched her, in a daze for a long time, perhaps recalling images from their youth.

Then, he wiped the corner of his eye and turned to Xia Xin, “Young man, could you please take me back to the hospital?”

Xia Xin came back to his senses, quickly responded with a yes, and he too wanted to escape the awkward atmosphere, so he hurriedly pushed the wheelchair out.

Jiangli glanced at the others in the room and then left.

Instantly, only those with pale faces and at a loss for what to do remained in the room, looking at each other.

“Mr. Cao, you… you are so agreeable this time?” Xia Xin was somewhat surprised as he pushed Cao Jiadong out.

The Cao Jiadong he knew was indeed quick-tempered and petty; it was rare for him to be so agreeable.

He had thought that if all this were true, the Cao Family would surely face a major disaster.

But unexpectedly, just as Jiangli had said, nothing happened in the end.

“Actually, I never wanted to divorce Lijuan before.” Cao Jiadong responded, lowering his head, “I indeed had a mistress, but I thought it was just a man’s nature, to have some fun on the side. I never intended to divorce Lijuan to marry the mistress. But I didn’t realize how much it hurt her. Master, do you think I really sinned too much in the past?”

He asked Jiangli.

Jiangli glanced at him, his tone indifferent, “It’s good that you know.”

Cao Jiadong: “…”

It hit home hard.

He gave a wry smile, “I also feel like maybe I really sinned too much. None of the kids are actually mine; it turns out I’m infertile, and it was my parents who asked Lijuan to go for IVF…”

He truly didn’t know how to make sense of it all.

It was also because of these revelations that he realized he had neglected Wang Lijuan over the years, and truly wronged her.
