Chapter 448 - What Would You Do (1/2)
Upon hearing her word, his gaze did not shift away from her. Xian Zihao kept staring at her as if he had never seen the paper on the coffee table. He did not question her, nor did his expression change much.
Noticing his gaze on her, Jiang Ruolan's heart tightened. She turned around, pushed his arm from her, and coldly said, ”You've been hiding this for so long. You should know that one day I'll find out the truth. You should understand why I want to get divorced. I don't want to say too much. Just sign the divorce papers that I've printed out.”
With that said, Jiang Ruolan wanted to stand up. She couldn't stand the smell of Xian Zihao that she liked. She was afraid that she would not have the heart to be ruthless. Since she's already talking, it would be easier for her to be direct with him.
Xian Zihao didn't move. He just stared at her. Even when she stood up, his gaze still glued to her face. It was as if he wanted to see from her expression how determined she had been.
When Jiang Ruolan turned back to look at him, Xian Zihao shifted his gaze and looked at the divorce agreement on the coffee table.
”You thought about it for a month, but in the end, you still made such a choice?”
He picked up the divorce agreement on the table and looked at the contents of the letter. His gaze was calm, neither happy nor angry. Jiang Ruolan could not tell what he was thinking.
She took a deep breath. ”Zihao, you know that your grandfather forced my mother to die, right?”
Xian Zihao frowned and put down a divorce agreement. He looked at Jiang Ruolan, ”Ruolan, did you choose to divorce because I didn't tell you the truth before and hid it from you for too long or it was because of a grudge from twenty-one years ago?”
Jiang Ruolan looked him straight in the eye and said calmly, ”Even though I don't feel very comfortable because you didn't explain the truth to me, I understand. I know that you don't want to ruin our relationship and the harmony of this marriage. Actually, you are not wrong. You were so young back then, and you didn't know what your grandfather and father were doing. You couldn't stop it. You were innocent. I knew that, so Zihao, I am very calm now. You and I will never be enemies, but this husband-wife relationship, I don't think we'll be able to continue either.”
”After all, this so-called revenge never existed in my world, it only appeared a month ago. I thought I could let it go because of your kindness towards me and your innocence. I can ignore all these things, but Zihao, you and the Xian Family are one. You are from the Xian Family, and nothing can change that.”
”I always thought Greenville Residence as our home, our world, it has nothing to do with other people. However, I can't be selfish. I can't live in this place forever. Please just sign this agreement.”
Xian Zihao's eyes were reddened, but he remained calm. He just looked at her, and after she finished speaking, he said in a deep voice, ”Since you are very calm now, I will tell you directly. I will not sign this divorce agreement. Ever since I, Xian Zihao, married you, I never planned to sign something like this!”
”You must sign it!” Jiang Ruolan's heart trembled as she shouted in anger.
