Chapter 1304
“L-Liam…” Ixia said.
She desperately reached out to grab Liam’s hand. But before she
could touch him, he walked away.
Julian was furious when he saw that. He raised his hand and slapped Ixia hard across her face. “Look
at what you’ve done.”
“You hit me! How dare you hit me?! What right do you have to hit me?
I was always polite to you. You’re only my dad because my mom likes
you. Otherwise, you’re nothing. Even my real dad never hit me like this!
“This is my home, not yours. Get out!”
Julian’s gaze turned fierce instantly. “Try saying it one more time.”
“I just said it, so what?! You’re only interested in my family’s money; that’s why you married my mom.
You wouldn’t even be in this family without her. You abandoned your wife and son just to get into my
family.”
“Shut up!” Ixia’s words hurt Julian deeply. He looked menacing as he lifted his hand and slapped her

into it.
Ixia fell to the ground from the slap A clear handprint could be seen
on her face, and there was a trickle of blood at the corner of her
mouth.
Lylia looked at the handprint on Ixias face, which had already turned purple. She immediately slapped
Julian without any hesitation. “How
dare you hit her? Julian Xander, who do you think you are to hit my precious daughter? Let me tell you,
this family doesn’t need you!”
Liam, standing outside the door, listened to the commotion inside. He then walked away briskly with an
indifferent expression.
Ixia covered her face and cried while looking at Julian in disbelief.
You hit me. You actually laid hands on me. I’ll tell my grandpa. If he
finds out that you hit me, he won’t spare you.”
Julian responded, “You don’t need to leave. Lylia, if you want to get a
divorce, let’s do it. If your precious daughter ruins my plans again, I
won’t spare her.”
He then turned and headed upstairs to take away several important documents from the study and left
the villa with his laptop bag.
“Julian Xander, if you leave, don’t ever come back,” Lylia shouted hysterically behind Julian.
Julian had endured Lylia and Ixia enough. He stopped walking outside the door and said, “I’ll have my
lawyer send the divorce agreement
over later.”
Lylia did not expect him to want a divorce. “Stop! Julian! You stop right there!”
Next week was Liam’s wedding day, coinciding with the election. Julian would undoubtedly become the
next mayor of Ventropolis.
Lylia was envied by many in their circle for being the future mayor’s wife. If she divorced Julian now,
she would not get anything apart from this villa.
Julian was well-known in the political circle for his good reputation.
He never engaged in any bribery. He only earned a salary of around

apart from his connections, he got this position mainly because the
Harper family noticed him. That was how he managed to stay in his
current position for so long.
“No! We can’t get divorced!” Lylia shouted.
Ixia cried. “Mom, he hit me. Why don’t you care about me?”
Lylia crouched down to grab Ixia’s shoulders as she persuaded her
earnestly. She said, “Ixia, you need to understand this. Right now, we
can only rely on each other. If Julian divorces me, we won’t get
anything. Do you understand?
“He has secured the position of mayor, but he doesn’t want me to
become the mayor’s wife. However it is, I won’t let him succeed. I
won’t divorce him even if I die. Ixia, you must endure this until the day
he officially takes office. By then, we’ll have influence over the entire
Ventropolis.”
Ixia replied, “Mom, I didn’t mean what I said just now. I was just mad.
I really like Liam, but why won’t he marry me?”
