Zachary quietly said, "Perfect timing."

His words sparkled Ember’s remaining hopes and she slowly walked up to him, mustering a smile as she said, "Tim

Goldman was just slandering you, right?-

"It's all true," Zachary said, cutting her short icily. "Now, sign this."

Ember finally saw the paper on the table, and the title that read 'Divorce Agreement'!

She wobbled and turned toward Zachary in disbelief. "Y-You want to divorce me?!"

Then, she turned to Mrs. Slate, who had always supported her.

And right now, she needed Mrs. Slate's help.

However, Mrs. Slate simply averted her gaze, rose to her feet, and left.

After all, she knew that Zachary was no longer the son she could browbeat or manipulate at her whim.

However, Ember was still counting on her. "Zachary is going to divorce me! Aren't you doing anything about this?"

Mrs. Slate finally sighed. "I can't even save myself."

Before Ember arrived, Zachary had told her that he would not hold Lulu Adams's death against her, but in other

words, he was saying that he would not show mercy if she kept meddling in his affairs.

In fact, even if she was his mother, Zachary would have her thrown in prison -she could not afford to provoke him.

But she was still pleased-he had clearly grown out of the shackles of family ties. All she wanted was for him to be

able to stand up for himself, and she would die happy to see him become a ruthless head of the family!

Naturally, that meant she could not help Ember, and as she returned to her room right away, Ember was left

downstairs, wobbling again.

Zacahry then said flatly, "Sign this now, and I could consider paying for your living expenses. You can't blame me

for what happens if you don't."

That was all he said, and it left Ember staring blankly at him, as if she did not know him.

He was now a stranger-a heartless man!

"You've changed..." she murmured.

Zachary smiled. "No thanks to you."

Finally calming down, she exclaimed, "You always took offense that I cheated on you, didn't you? But you set me up

in the first place!"

"I wouldn’t stoop that low," Zachary replied, his eyes turning cool. ‘ You're the one who charmed your parents into

manipulating my mother, who in turn had Lulu killed. The instant you did that, it would end badly for you!"

"Lulu...?"

Ember was stunned. She could not believe that she lost to a dead person, and turned hysterical right then. "All you

care about is her, don't you?! But she's dead! She's not coming back no matter what you do, and I'm the one who

did it-so don't involve my parents!"

Zachary watched as she threw a tantrum. He suddenly rose to his feet and slowly walked up to her as he said, "You

inherited your heinous nature from your father, didn't you? Well, it's true neither of you were angels, and he's going

to spend the rest of his life in prison now."

In reality, the police announced the case very swiftly because they had been investigating the man who helped

keep Peter Lindt safe from any culpability for that factory fire incident.

It was a corruption case that Zachary was not involved in.
