Beyond the Divorce novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401 How Did You Two Meet?

That just

proves he’s not your true partner! A true partner can give you everything you want and also protect you. He can’t give you anything but trouble.”

My words were harsh, but Ivanna didn’t argue.

After a long pause, she murmured, “Actually, I’ve struggled with it, too. But I can’t bear the pain of leaving

him… I’d rather face death head–on.”

I fell silent since I understood what Ivanna was saying.

How could I break my addiction to Atlas? Perhaps, like our current situation, the best way was for him to

have a change of heart.

“How did you two meet?” I asked Ivanna.

She sat motionless on the sofa, her voice soft and distant as she recounted the story.

“It was coincidental. It was about one of my artists, Vanessa Oakley. She was taken to Emgrand Nightclub and caught the eye of some playboys there. Coincidentally, Vanessa was a promising new talent I had

high hopes for.”

I sat next to her, listening intently

“The day things went south, she called me. So I rushed to Emgrand Nightclub without a second thought. One of the playboys had a big influence, so I had no chance. He threatened to harm both of us. I didn’t hesitate. I grabbed a bottle and smashed it right on his head…”

I involuntarily gasped. The situation was even more severe than I had thought.

“I had no idea how powerful that playboy was. The nightclub was already surrounded before I could

escape. They had us cornered. I was angry, but I also felt helpless. I threatened them with a broken bottle,

aiming it at my vein. But they weren’t scared.”

“You were too reckless!” I exclaimed, my heart pounding.
