Simon's eyes lit up instantly. He quickly said, "You've both been separated for over a year now, so there's no

moral issue with Ruth andbeing together. It's just that sformalities haven't been completed yet."

Gordon was stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning. He stood rigidly in place, staring at Ruth in disbelief,

his body swaying slightly.

It seemed that the sudden cold and heartless reaction from Ruth had quite a profound impact.

"Oh my, Mrs. Gonzales has made her choice! She's chosen to side with Simon against Gordon!"

The Quirk family was taken aback as well. Given Ruth's previous reaction, they had assumed that she would

remain a hopeless romantic. The paparazzi immediately began to bombard Gordon with questions about his

divorce. Gordon, in a daze, finally realized his predicament. After several changes in Gordon's complexion, he

surprisingly managed to regain his usual refined and cultured demeanor, albeit a bit stiff. Swallowing his pride

and keeping his temper in check, he began, "My dear, this talk of divorce is nothing but a rash decision. Do you

truly wish to end things withover this insignificant creature? | can forgive you this one time, after all, we've

been married for many years wretch"

Gordon knew how to handle Ruth. After he spoke, she seemed taken aback, as if recalling something. Deep

down, it was hard for her to let go of their many years of kinship, not to mention the times when Gordon loved

her and truly endured a lot for her. It's almost over... How dull.

Suddenly, Alexander whispered into Isabella's ear. "He seems to have a hidden message in his words. What does

he mean by 'endure more for her sake?"

Isabella was taken aback, immediately sparking a wave of curiosity that prompted her to start investigating,

Other members of the Quirk family also heard what Alexander had said, and they couldn't help but become

curious.

D*mn it! At that moment, | actually felt a twinge of sympathy for Ruth. Even the most detestable person has a

pitiable side. Although her crimes were unforgivable, Gordon, you really deserved to die!

Everyone in the Quirk family widened their eyes.

What was going on!

If Isabella was talking like this, it must be a big deal.

What on earth was it?

demeanor as he said. "Uncle Gordon, it's not right to be so shameless. Even now, are you still planning to

manipulate Ruth's emotions and trick her into coming back to you?" Gordon's face changed. He looked at Simon

in disbelief

Before he could stop her.

Thunder rumbled across the sky.

The paparazzi were so shocked that they began to check their recording devices, fearing that they hadn't

captured this statement, missing this splendid moment

The onlookers, too, were intrigued by this statement, their faces a mix of reactions, all eyes turning toward

Gordon.

The man who had starred in numerous leading roles shockingly... only lasted for a minute or two!

How did Ruth endure all these years? Ans she even doubted herself?

"How... can this be?" Ruth stared blankly at Simon. Her voice was trembling, clearly she was greatly shocked by

this revelation.

Simon leaned in to whisper softly into Ruth's ear, murmuring something. Instantly, Ruth's face flushed red, then

turned pale.

In the end, her eyes, gradually turning a deep shade of Crimson, were fixated unwaveringly on Gordon. Everyone

was curious about what had been said.

Yet, only the people of the Quirk family were privy to i

Simon allowed Ruth to compare the differences between him and his uncle. It becclear that Ruth had never

truly found joy in her marital relationship. However, since she had been with Gordon from the ther heart first

fluttered with young love, and having been sub manipulated by him for half her life, she held her husband in

high regard. It was impossible for her to discuss this matter with anyone else is a result, she had no idea that

other people's experiences were not the same.

The couple had been unable to conceive, despite no apparent issues being found. There had indeed been

instances of infertility among the women in Ruth's family, so she had always suspected that the problem lay with

her. Consequently, she had never thought to check Every tthe topic of them seeking treatment together was

brought up, Gordon would always feign indifference. He would then coax her with sweet words, until she reached

an age where it was difficult to conceive again. All the while, she carried the guilt of not being able to bear a

child for her husband.

Gordon was actually quite savvy. He had dared to boldly pursue Rebecca and instigate a divorce because he was

convinced that even if they divorced, Ruth would still be emotionally attached to him. He really was cunning and

sly!

Upon hearing everything, the Quirk family couldn't help but look at Gordon with contempt. He was truly a

despicable man.

Ah, no wonder you managed to recover so quickly despite being drugged, it's because you simply had to.

Everything makes sense now.

The members from the Quirk family had also regained their senses, and they could's t

At this point, Gordon had already turned pale, as if his brain was overloaded by the situation in front of him.

"Y-You can't possibly believe him!" Gordon was the type who refused to admit wrong until he was faced with grim

reality.

At that moment, Ruth's face was as fierce as a demon. "Eine," she declared, "we'll go to the hospital for a check-

up. If you've deceived me, Gordon, | swear, you will pay the price!" "H-Have you lost your mind? How could you

not trust me? This is an insult to me. If you're going to act this way, let's get a divorce. Even if | prove my

innocence, I'll never forgive you."

Surprisingly, at this moment, Gordon intended to intimidate Ruth. He put on a show of being unyieldingly defiant,

aiming to deter her plans.

"Get this straight, you're the one stepping out on our relationship, not me. I've never been unfaithful physically"

No sooner had he finished speaking, before Gordon could even take a moral high ground, a voice suddenly

drifted out from the crowd.

"He didn't cheat physically... Could it be because he knew he wasn't up to par, afraid that other women would

find out and expose him?" Surprisingly, no one turned around to see who had spoken. They simply agreed that

what had been said made perfect sense.

With a sense of helplessness, Alexander lowered his gaze to look at Isabella. She really wasn't afraid of being

spotted by the paparazzi.

Isabella lifted her gaze toward Alexander, her eyes blinking innocently.

In a moment of weakness, | inadvertently voiced my thoughts | had only recently understood why a shameless

person like Gordon had never truly behaved indecently toward Rebecca before. This led Rebecca to mistakenly

believe that Gordon was genuinely honorable, wi character.

Upon hearing Isabella's incessant thoughts, the Quirk family finally caught on. Indeed, thinking in this way made

perfect sense.

Upon hearing Isabella's eye-opening remark, Ruth immediately retorted in anger, "Investigate, we must

investigate!"

"C-Crazy woman, you're not calm right now, | don't have the patience to deal with you!" Gordon said, ready to

turn and leave. But before he did, he shot a fierce look at the paparazzo. "He's slandering me. I'll sue him for

defamation!"

Oh. He's exposing himself instead of covering up the fact.

Even the paparazzi felt sympathy for this stubborn man 12:57 Sun, Oct 6

In a moment of rashness, he caught them in the act, and it resulted in a lifetof shame. Oh, Gordon, how |

mourn for you.

At that moment, Gordon happened to pass by the Quirk family. Even though they desperately wanted to laugh,

the Quirk family did their utmost to pinch themselves to suppress their amusement.

At this point, the hotel staff finally arrived, albeit belatedly, to disperse the crowd. Isabella suspected that they

might have been leisurely watching the surveillance footage before deciding to show up.

The spectators hadn't anticipated the thrilling twists and turns in this adulterous scandal. After witnessing it all,

they returned to their rooms with satisfied smiles on their faces.

After Isabella and the Quirk family had left, they waited until all the paparazzi were driven away before they

finally departed.

After descending the stairs, she noticed that everyone in the lobby, whether they were guests or staff, were

engaged in hushed conversations. They were all holding their phones, chattering away. She guessed that

another wave of gossip was about to hit social media. Isabella and her group couldn't help but check their

phones.

Sure enough, in a short span of time, their names were all over the trending searches.

Gordon never lasted more than two minutes.

Gordon manipulated his wife.

An uncle and nephew sharing a wife? Is it a moral degradation, or....

The facade of the loving husband and the ideal couple finally crumbled. They decided to investigate the truth

behind their infertility.

Stubborn man.

Nephew strives to replace his uncle.

No one is as unfortunate as Rebecca.
