chat. He
“Aurelia, you didn’t know? I remember that it was you who added him to the group had even used your name, insisting on treating the sales team upstairs to discuss a collaboration. At that time, you didn’t say anything, so everyone thought that you had also agreed to it.
You know that we usually have collaborations with the team upstairs, so they had no choice but to agree to cooperate with Seth. Later, when you left the group, they complained. I noticed that you didn’t say anything either when there was talk about you and Seth getting married, Millie recalled.
“I didn’t…” Aurelia paused.
When she first joined the group, she had complained to Seth about it being too noisy. But everyone in the office was in the group, so she didn’t want to leave it immediately.
Back then, Seth had said that he wanted to take a look, so she had given him her phone. It must have been then that he had added himself to the group. Later, she couldn’t bear it and left the group, unaware that he was still in it.
Besides, he had actually used her name to discuss business with others? It was fine if the negotiations went well, but if it didn’t, wouldn’t it all be her fault?
Aurelia gritted her teeth. “What did Seth say in the group?”
Millie scrolled on her phone and read Seth’s reply word for word.
“He said, “I know you’re talking about Aurelia. Don’t blame her. I really love her. It’s my fault for not being able to give her happiness. Everyone, please help me persuade her. It breaks my heart to see her living like that. As long as she’s willing to be with me, I’m still willing to accept her.“”
“Damn! If I hadn’t seen his mother’s true colors with my own eyes
I might have believed him. He’s acting like he’s Mother Teresa and pretending to be all philanthropic,” Millie remarked with disdain.
Aurelia took the phone and glanced over Seth’s words. Just then, Kimberly’s response quickly followed.
“Seth, actually, I’m sure Aurelia hasn’t forgotten you. Otherwise, she wouldn’t still be using the things you’d given her even after three years. But you’re being too humble. Is it worth it?”
Seth replied, “If Aurelia comes back to me, I’m willing to give her as many gifts as she wants.”
Three years? Gifts? Aurelia felt like laughing
Seth would never give her a gift unless he had to. Even if he did, it would completely lack sincerity.
She used to believe that just the thought was enough, but now she had seen through Seth’s tricks. Wasn’t he just trying to play the pitiful victim in front of everyone?
Sure enough, everyone started praising Seth and speaking up for him.
“Seth, you’re not so bad yourself. There’s really no need for you to be so accommodating.”

“If she divorces, it’ll be her second marriage. Don’t joke about your own happiness,” another added.
“I don’t think Aurelia deserves someone like you. She broke up with you because of money and married someone else out of anger. She should suffer the consequences.”
Seeing everyone belittling herself on Seth’s behalf, Aurelia’s face burned, as if she had been slapped multiple times.
She wasn’t acquainted with these people. How could they criticize her?
She had pretended not to know earlier, but now that it had come to this, she felt compelled to say something.
She asked, “Millie, can I say a few words?”
Millie nodded, “Go ahead. I can’t stand seeing them speak up for Seth. You’ve been through so much because of him. There’s no reason for others to slander you!”
“Thank you.”
Aurelia took a deep breath as she held the phone. Then, she pressed the voice message button.
“Since everyone seems so interested in the matter between me and Seth, I might as well clarify it here. We’re completely over, and we’ll never get back together.
“Seth, stop pretending to be sentimental. Before you proposed to me, you had already paid at membership fee of 30 thousand dollars for the Golf Dating Club. What does that make me?
“Forcing me to get divorced and reconcile now is nothing more than the fact that you had been exposed for giving a female member a fake watch and subsequently gotten kicked out of the club. You just can’t find another woman who’s easier to deceive than me.”
A minute after Aurelia’s message was sent, Seth was seething with anger.
“Aurelia, what nonsense are you spouting?”
“Nonsense? Well, let me provide you with the evidence.”
Aurelia sent screenshots of her conversations with Seth’s colleagues to Millie’s phone, and then shared them to the group chat using Millie’s account.
Of course, she had already blurred out the names and profile pictures of Seth’s colleagues.
With such irrefutable evidence, Seth remained silent for a long while.
Aurelia continued, “Let me clarify further. My married life is good, and I don’t need anyone’s concern. Thank you.”
Seth couldn’t hold back any longer and retorted sharply, “Good? Aurelia, I know you very You’re the best at putting up a strong front. There’s no shame in admitting that things aren’t going well. There’s no need to lie. Could everyone possibly have misunderstood?”
