'A Yue, I beg you, accept Fu'er. Otherwise, she won't survive...'

In the main hall, Gu Lin looked at me with a troubled expression, while a pregnant beauty knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

It seemed as if they were an immortal couple who would live and die together, and I was the wicked mother-in-law who broke up their harmonious relationship.

'My husband is joking. Since you've brought her here, I have no power to stop you.'

I sneered and calmly walked towards the table.

'So, you agree? A Yue, I knew you would be the best...'

Gu Lin stood up joyfully, wanting to grab hold of my wrist, but I pushed him aside heavily.

'Let's get a divorce.'

I said these words with a calm expression, and I handed him an unfinished divorce letter.

'A Yue, stop joking. You still refuse!'

Gu Lin sighed deeply, but before he could say anything, the beauty who was kneeling on the ground spoke up first.

'Sister, don't blame Gu Lang. He was drunk at the time, and I happened to be serving beside him. It was an accident that we spent the night together, and unexpectedly, I became pregnant. Please show mercy, sister, and give me and the child in my womb a chance to live...'

She spoke while sobbing, her eyes shimmering with tears, making her truly pitiful in my eyes.

'Yes, A Yue, besides, you can't bear children. I am the only legitimate heir in the family. This is also to continue the Gu family's bloodline. Even if I don't take Fu'er as a concubine this time, my mother will definitely find other suitable concubines for me in the future. Please understand, my dear.'

Yes, I can't bear children.

I clenched the handkerchief tightly, feeling a piercing pain in my heart.

A year ago, Gu Lin's mother fell into the lake during the New Year's banquet. It was the dead of winter, and the lake was covered in ice. I was the first one to jump in and pull her ashore, but it also ruined my chances.

However, they only remembered the fact that I couldn't bear children and completely disregarded this life-saving favor.

'So, let's get a divorce. Gu Lin, I won't hold you back any longer. Tomorrow, I will settle my personal belongings, and from then on, you can take a hundred concubines, and no one will bother you anymore. Also, please leave my house immediately with your Aunt Wu girl!'

The door slammed shut, and those two annoying people finally disappeared from my sight.

Weary, I rubbed my temples and lay down on the bed, reminiscing about my failed marriage over the past two years."
