Chapter 58

I knew that no matter how much Irvin didn’t want to, he would eventually sign. After all, his precious Lianne was dying, and there was no time to waste.
On the other hand, Mom was very anxious when she heard Julianne couldn’t wait any longer. She clung to Irvin’s arm, begging him desperately to save her. Honestly, she was just one step away from grovelling to his feet.
Her performance was so convincing she could’ve won an award.
Sometimes, I really have to hand it to Julianne. She managed to make Mom, who’s usually cold and heartless even toward her own daughter, treat her like she was the most precious person in the world.
That kind of talent wasn’t something just anyone could have.
As expected, even though Irvin didn’t want to do it, he eventually signed the divorce papers.
When he was done, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was enraged. It was a really terrifying sight
I had always been someone who appreciates money, so I could understand the pain he felt. Having to suddenly give up half his fortune when he had planned to keep every cent… Yeah, that must hurt him a lot.
Trying to be considerate, I offered him a bit of comfort. “Don’t be like this. With your skills, you’ll make more money in no time.”
For all his flaws, Irvin was undeniably talented. Honestly, even without my initial investment, he probably would have gotten to where he is today. It just would have taken him a little longer.
Putting emotions aside, my initial investment of just over ten million turned into a return worth billions in only four years. I would say that was a pretty good deal.
Thinking about my future as a carefree, filthy–rich woman, I even found myself wishing Irvin well. “Out with the old, in with the new. I’m sure your future will be nothing short of brilliant, Mr. Sawyer!”
Originally, I was so angry that I seriously considered teaming up with his rivals to completely ruin him and make sure he would never have the power to threaten me again.
However, I realized it was quite risky after a few secret meetings with them. I was worried that taking Irvin down might also drag myself in the process, so I scrapped that plan immediately.
I had been stressing over how to force him into a divorce without taking him down entirely. Then, a perfect opportunity landed right in my lap.
Julianne was such a helpful ally at this critical moment!
Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would one day become allies with Julianne. I was so grateful for her help.
In the past, because I cared too much, those people and events felt like sharp blades cutting into me.
However, once I let go and prioritized myself, I gained clarity and control, turning those same experiences into tools that empowered me and helped me navigate life more confidently.
Irvin stared at me, at the woman who once looked at him like he was my entire world.
Now, all he saw was the joy of our impending divorce and my sincere well wishes for him. The weight of it was too much for him, and he swayed, barely able to keep himself upright.
He knew it was his fault for not noticing when I nearly drowned at the banquet.

He wondered if that mistake was really unforgivable. How could I just turn off my love for him like that, without leaving a single trace behind?
I had loved him so much, willing to do anything just to be with him. He couldn’t understand why I was able to let it go so easily.
“Alright, where should I go to donate blood?” I asked , signaling my lawyer to keep the divorce papers away so that I could prepare to donate blood.
Maybe because he was genuinely worried about Julianne , Irvin’s face was pale, but he didn’t say anything else.
He just urged the doctor to take me to donate blood quickly
As the nurse motioned for me to sit down and prepare to draw my blood, I suddenly remembered something. “ I’m sorry, doctor. I just wanted to ask something. I had a major surgery three months ago and lost a lot of blood. I’m still taking medications right now, will that affect my ability to donate blood?”
Both the doctor and the nurse froze for a moment. Those were all reasons not to donate blood. They instinctively looked toward Irvin.
Irvin frowned. Without thinking, he said, “Emilia, stop playing around!”
