My Supermodel Wife-Chapter 919 - What About Children?
Divorce?
The air in the car seemed to be stopped by Leonhart's words.
Michelle didn't have time to take her eyes off his face, and she was filled with incredible astonishment.
The corners of her mouth opened slightly and she stared at him in confusion for a long time.
After a while, she asked blankly, "Husband, what did you just… you say?"
She must have heard wrong.
They had been married for thirty years, how could he say that they were going to divorce?!
Throughout the history of the Adler family, there had never been a divorce between the head and the wife of the family.
At this moment, Leonhart was still staring ahead and didn't even look at her.
As Michelle's expression became more and more nervous, the man answered nonchalantly, "I have prepared the divorce documents. You can see the agreements there. If you have any questions about the terms, you can contact my lawyer and fix it again."
Michelle shook her head to herself. "Are you kidding me? Is it because I just said a few words to that girl that you immediately want to divorce me? If you're angry because I did it, I can apologize to her, but divorcing…"
"Since you thought I wanted a divorce from you, then why bother to apologize?" Leonhart said as he looked at Michelle.
There was no fluctuation in his deep gaze. "Go back and sign the divorce papers as soon as possible. From now on, you don't have to talk about the Adler family matters."
Michelle took a sharp breath. When she saw Leonhart's serious face, she suddenly felt very strange. She kept shaking her head and muttering quickly, "No, no, I won't let you divorce me. My husband, I have accepted the existence of Leonard and the others, why are you still so cruel towards me? What do you want me to do? We have years…"
"Okay!" Leonhart frowned impatiently and turned his face away, leaning back on the chair and sighed. "Michelle, you can lie to yourself, but you can't lie to me. From the moment I took Leonard back, you never accepted him."
"Think for yourself with that brain of yours. What was the purpose of me bringing you to tonight's event? What is your current identity? If you really accepted Mellisa, why do you keep attacking her and mocking her?" f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m
Michelle slowly felt despair filling her heart, and shook her head, subconsciously reached out and grabbed Leonhart's arm. "Husband, even if I do something wrong, you can't just divorce me! I know you love Leonard, but I... never did anything to hurt him."
"You said that the title of head of the Adler family could only belong to him, and I was never against it. At most... I'm just mad that Mellisa has disguised herself as a servant and tricked all of us, so I wanted to warn her. My husband, you can't do this to me! Haven't I sacrificed enough for the Adler family?"
Michelle thought about the thousands of efforts she did, but she didn't expect Leonhart to divorce her so coldly.
Was this all because of her warning to Melisa? Or that he was afraid of criticism and retaliation from the Mayer family if this continued?
Deep down in her heart, she might never really understand Leonhart's behavior.
Suspicion immediately appeared on her face.
Leonhart had taken over the Adlers for a long time, and she had been with him for a long time. Michelle had been his wife for more than 30 years, it could be said that she could easily see the changes in the man's eyes or expression.
At this moment, Leonhart's cold eyes were fixed on Michelle's face. He did not speak, but looked at her calmly.
And his gaze was so sharp it made Michelle feel like she was sitting on a needle.
"My husband…"
Leonhart slowly raised his hand, interrupting her quibble. "In your eyes, you really think that I'm scared of what the Mayer family will do, so I have to agree with their arrangement about Mellisa and Leonard, huh?"
Michelle sighed, her eyes fluttering a few times, as if she was embarrassed by her guess.
Seeing this, Leonhart sighed with disappointment. He turned to look out the window and whispered in a deep voice. "Before yesterday, before I knew the real identity of Melissa, I had to agree with their relationship."
"You know why I announced the abolition of rules to choose a daughter-in-law? Because I want my son, even my grandson, and all future generations of the Adler family to choose their partner of their heart."
"Do you think I am afraid of the Mayer family? If it wasn't for Leonard liking Mellisa, even if the old man left outright, I will not agree with this marriage!"
"Michelle, your heart is too small, you have no tolerance for others. But I won't blame you, Leonard is not your son so I can understand why you can't accept him. Therefore, our only solution is divorce. You have indeed done a lot for the Adlers over the years. So on the terms of divorce, I won't treat you badly!"
Leonhart's words made Michelle sluggish.
It was obvious that the air conditioner in the car was not turned on, and in the slightly warm cramped space, she had shrunk like melted ice.
After a while, Michelle's lips trembled, and she smiled bitterly. "After everything that happened, you still want to divorce me?"
"Yes!" Leonhart stared at her for a moment, but spoke the heartbreaking words calmly. "What is between us is not love but compulsion and compromise. These years, I too have grown tired of you!"
Michelle's eyes immediately filled with tears, and the double hit made her lose all her grace and patience.
She kept shaking her head, her tears fell and she screamed. "Leonhart, you have no conscience!"
"Why did you say you were tired of me? We've been married for over 30 years and you casually made a contract to kick me out? Then why did you agree to marry me? I worked hard for the Adler family for over 30 years, but in the end, you intend to get rid of me? You are not a man, what right do you have to treat me like this!"
Michelle's screams were too loud, and even the guards outside the car heard them.
At this moment, Leonhart looked at Michelle who had tears in her eyes, his face inexplicable.
He was still very calm when facing Michelle's cries, then pursed his lips mercilessly and said, "If you don't agree with the divorce, let my lawyer handle it."
Michelle's crying slowly stopped, it was hard to believe it.
She suddenly realized with a little panic that this husband no longer wanted to talk, and that the man was really determined to get a divorce.
"Why… even if we have no feelings between us, can you let Lyle and Linda lose their mother?"
Linda Adler, the daughter of Michelle who is the second sister of Lyle.
Linda had been abroad for the past three years, managing the Adler family's overseas business.
Speaking of the two children, Leonhart's expression finally softened.
