Leo looked at me warily, trying to read my emotions.
There was a touch of jealousy in his tone.
I shrugged and gave a vague answer.
“It’s just that I saw some interesting information.”
I stood up, knowing that divorce procedures couldn’t be handled today.
“Leo, I’ll resubmit the divorce application. No matter what you do, our marriage can’t continue any longer.” I said to him, “I’ve told you that I’ve completely given up on you.”
Leo had no intention of giving up at all. “I’ve said that I’ll win you back and give you
everything you want.”
I sighed and left the council building.
In the evening, at the bar.
During this period of time, I lived in a villa in the human world of Orlando. When I left the SilverMoon pack, I had never thought that I would come back driving a luxury car with a global limited edition and with billions of assets.
When I walked inside, Daria rushed over and hugged me tightly.
“I almost didn’t recognize you!” she said, her face lit up with excitement. “You’ve changed so
much!”
I smiled, though it felt strange.
Back then, I was always busy taking care of leo and my duties as Luna, so I rarely dressed
- up.
Now, as I looked at myself, I was surprised by how different I looked.
Many people in the bar knew me. When they saw me, they all widened their eyes in

surprise.
Their surprise was so obvious that it almost looked comical.
At dinner, Daria was full of energy.
She told me all about the chaos that had happened since I left Silver Moon.
She said with a smile, “After you left, Aria attempted to move in here as the mistress and
So began to interfere in the affairs of the SilverMoon. As a result, her reforms made everyone’s life a mess.”
I listened, smiling.
“I’m so glad that you’ve finally found yourself again.” She said sincerely and clinked her wine glass against mine.
“Happy divorce, Liz. ”
I gave a bitter smile and told her what had happened at the council during the day.
Emma was extremely surprised. “Then will you choose to forgive him?”
I shook my head. “It’s so late!”
It was so late that I didn’t care anymore.
Within just a few days, my life had undergone earth–shaking changes. Having experienced so much, I already had a new understanding of my own life.
At that moment, my cell phone rang.
“Liz, we have a family gathering tonight.”
Leo’s deep voice came through.
I reminded him, “It’s not ‘we‘. There’s no relationship between you and me anymore.”
Leo asked, “What if I say that I’ve found the clues of the assailants in the last attack? Come to the gathering. I’ll tell you everything.”

My breathing suddenly became rapid.
On that day, the pain of my five fingers being broken by the piano lid was deeply engraved in my heart. For many nights, I woke up tortured by this nightmare.
I must shatter this nightmare with my own hands!
I drank up the wine on the bar in one gulp, said goodbye to Emma, and rushed out of the
bar.
Evening fell swiftly, and the servants bustled around, preparing for the family gathering with an air of seriousness.
The scent of rich food wafted through the mansion.
As I entered the door of the villa, I saw Leo’s father seated at the head of the table.
To my shock, Aria was seated in the place of honor, closest to him.
Aria stood across the room, adorned in an elegant gown that flowed gracefully as she gestured animatedly while speaking with Andrew.
Her bright smile lit up the conversation, but the moment her gaze fell on me, that pleasant expression shifted into something sharp and mocking, a smirk designed to provoke.
I didn’t give her the satisfaction of a reaction.
Instead, I maintained my composure, the corners of my mouth lifting slightly in a response that was barely a smile.
Just then, I felt a gentle but firm grip on my arm.
Turning my head slightly, I saw leo, dressed impeccably in a sleek, well–tailored suit that fit him perfectly.
His presence was commanding, effortlessly exuding control and authority.
He leaned in close, his voice low and smooth as he whispered in my ear, “There’s a good show coming tonight.”

Curiosity piqued, I tilted my head slightly toward him and whispered back, “What kind of
show?”
leo’s lips curled into a smile, barely visible but unmistakable in its meaning.
“You’ll see soon enough. Just don’t rush it,” he said, his voice filled with quiet amusement.
As we descended the stairs together, the soft murmurs of conversation filled the air.
e grand chandelier hanging above the room cast a warm glow over the ornate dining table, which was already set for dinner.
Plates gleamed in the candlelight, and the scent of freshly prepared food lingered in the air, though tension hovered like an uninvited guest.
leo pulled out a chair for me, and I took my seat, glancing across the table where Aria sat, her every move laced with intention.
