He Asked for a Divorce, Then Begged Me to Marry Him Again After I Moved On Chapter 20

After Ethan was discharged from the hospital, Serena visited our office frequently to seek him out.

Most of the time, Ethan refused to see her.

She had been forced to suspend her studies at UC Berkeley.

Her wealthy ex-boyfriend held a persistent grudge over her double-dealing.

Through his family’s connections, Serena’s university financial support grant was officially

revoked.

Furthermore, details of her involvement with both Brandon and Ethan spread rapidly across

campus as common gossip.

Unable to endure the stares and whispers, she took a leave of absence.

When I walked into Ethan’s office holding my resignation letter, he was on the phone with Serena.

Serena’s sobbing voice came through the receiver clearly.

“Ethan, you can’t just abandon me.”

“I’m pregnant.”

Ethan’s expression didn’t change at all. “I don’t recall touching you.”

“That night… that night you were drunk, and I came to pick you up…”

Ethan leaned lazily against his chair, letting out a cold sneer.

“I was drunk, not dead.”

“Whether anything happened, do you think I wouldn’t know?”

Serena pleaded, “Ethan, don’t push me to the edge.”

Ethan hung up the phone directly.

Seeing this, I felt even more confident that resigning was the right decision.

Based on Serena’s behavior in our previous life, she was far from as innocent as she claimed to be.

To her right now, Ethan was the sole lifeline left to grab onto.

She would never let go willingly.

It was highly likely that her drama with Ethan would eventually explode into a public scandal

regarding his personal life.

When that happened, Bennett Technologies would face severe stock volatility.

Selling my shares now and walking away with a fortune sufficient to live comfortably for the rest of my life was the best choice.

Ethan flipped through my resignation paperwork.

“Is this for your boyfriend?”

“That has nothing to do with you.”

“I assumed that after experiencing a life with me, you wouldn’t sacrifice this much for another

man.”

He logged into the corporate system and clicked his approval on my resignation.

This truly had nothing to do with Nathan.

Nathan had always respected my career choices completely.

It was simply that one day, while reviewing a contract, I felt a sudden, inexplicable sense of

boredom.

On a whim, I decided to seek out the vibrant, authentic version of myself from long ago.

Ethan would never understand my departure from the established path.

In a sense, Ethan was treading the exact same road from our previous life.

A predictable, smooth, known highway.

Like sunrise and sunset, or the turning of seasons, it was orderly to the point of being dull.

But I refused that path.

I stepped outside the rigid circle, embracing the lively, unpredictable wind.

I wanted to redefine my own life.
