Chapter 114: It Hurts Again

Chapter 114

Tan Xi Yuan was infuriated by the phrase "a hen that can't lay eggs." It was a cruel remark that reopened her bleeding wound and sprinkled salt on it without any consideration.

"I won't allow it. What can you do to me? I won't divorce. I want to make you a lifetime mistress, make your child a lifelong illegitimate child, forever looked down upon and ridiculed!" Tan Xi Yuan's hands trembled as she typed, taking a long time to compose the message before sending it.

After sending the message, she set her phone aside and buried her head between her knees, unable to hold back her tears.

She knew that she was just venting her anger with empty words. If Lu Feng insisted on divorcing her, she had no way to stop it. Even if she refused to leave, as long as Lu Feng filed for divorce, their marriage would still be dissolved.

The phone beside her made a "beep" sound, signaling an incoming message.

She knew that reading the message would only make her feel worse, but her hand couldn't resist picking up the phone and opening the message.

"Whether you divorce or not is not up to you. Lu Feng wants this child, and he has promised me that he will marry me. I advise you to be sensible and leave on your own. This way, you might still leave a good impression in Lu Feng's heart."

No matter how she cried and begged Lu Feng, he simply refused to divorce and wanted her to be his mistress for a lifetime.

Although Lu Feng promised not to mistreat her and assured her that she would live a better life than Tan Xi Yuan, how could she be willing to be a mistress for a lifetime? Although an illegitimate child could still inherit property, which mother would want her child to be labeled as such?

She had always believed that happiness was something she had to fight for on her own.

That's why she took the initiative to break through this barrier.

She had a child, and she had no fear.

When she received the message from San'er, Tan Xi Yuan's already battered heart tore apart once again, causing a piercing pain.

Tears kept falling onto the screen of her phone, slowly spreading and blurring her reflection.

Was it Lu Feng who had asked her to tell herself?
