Chapter 237
"As proof?" Mai asked. "Do you have to act like that, Ma’am? No offense, but I know you are far tougher than that, and you will degrade yourself to be an abused wife in court later?"
Kate smiled, but her smile didn’t reach her eyes, "Yes, I must."
"You see, Mai. Because of that prenup I stupidly signed before I married him, he will get half of my assets without putting any work into it. I know our married life is no longer traditional since I am the breadwinner. I can tolerate giving that much if he is willing to do house chores like a househusband, or at least, just the bare minimum, NOT cheat on me."
"But here we are, about to get divorced because he thought he’s entitled to everything I worked hard for and thought I wouldn’t fight back once he slept with another woman," Kate laughed lightly, but she was only ridiculing herself. "That’s why, I want to show him how petty I could be. I will NEVER let him leave with my money, not after what he has done to me!"
"Actually, your question is similar to what Henry asked me before. He disapproves of my fight to annul the prenup because he doesn’t want me to be reduced to this weak, mentally abused woman who can’t get her shit together," Kate said. "In his mind, I am far tougher than that, and I think you have the same idea, right?"
Mai nodded.
She genuinely thought that Mrs. Woods was strong, professional, and domineering. After all, she could take the mantle as temporary CEO for three months and did the job perfectly.
In fact, everyone in the office has nothing bad to say about Mrs. Woods because they know she made a huge contribution to helping the company thrive.
Kate sighed.
