All Chapters of Divorce Finally Made Him Break: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

I quickly changed into the purple gown and dragged Terence out of the boutique before anything else could happen. He grumbled irritably once we got in the car. "Josie, seriously, who's the guilty one here? Why do you look like we just got caught having an affair or something?"I looked at him sternly. "Terence, think about it. Back when you used to fight with Timothy, did you ever win? Now, if he wants to deal with you, he won't use his fists anymore. He'll just take your life. You'd better believe me.""That… sounds terrifying," he muttered uncertainly before looking at me. "If he really kills me, would you cry at my funeral?" I took a deep breath and turned to look out the window, feeling completely done with him.Even though we had left the boutique first, when we arrived at the Shore residence, Timothy's car was already there. Through gritted teeth, Terence muttered bitterly, "Of course he had to get here before us. That guy always has to win, even with something like this."

Just then, Mr. Shore's assistant, Leon, walked up to Yasmin and the group. "Ms. Beech, there you are! I've been looking for you everywhere. "I heard you play the piano very well. The pianist Mrs. Shore Senior hired had a flight delay and still hasn't arrived. If it's convenient, could you perform a piece when the banquet begins?""This…" Yasmin looked uncomfortable and quickly replied, "I'm really sorry. I've been too busy with work and haven't practiced in a long time. Plus, I've been dealing with some tendon issues in my hand lately, so I really can't play.""I understand…" Leon looked a little troubled but did not insist. The banquet's background music was meant to be performed live by a pianist and several instrumentalists. Without the pianist, they'd have to use recorded music, which would come across as insincere.Since Yasmin refused, Leon could only continue searching for someone to fill in. After he left, I heard Harriett say in a displeased tone, "The Shore family really

I smiled and said, "I'm a journalist now, but I've been playing the piano since I was three. I still play whenever I get the chance."Through her reading glasses, Victoria studied me carefully. "Your technique and style remind me so much of a student I once taught. She was very talented, but she didn't want to pursue a music career. She followed her boyfriend into the field of medicine instead. Later on…" Her voice trailed off, and she looked wistful.Terence had once told me that Victoria was retired. She had been a professor at a prestigious music academy. Every student she coached for entrance exams went on to gain admission to top schools, both locally and abroad.Then Victoria turned to Leon. "When is Mr. Shore coming back?" Leon replied cautiously, "Mrs. Shore Senior, I'm afraid he won't make it tonight. He's still in negotiations with a partner company, and it doesn't look like it'll end soon."Victoria frowned. "It's always the same. All he ever thinks about is work. He

"How about I try loving you differently next time?" Terence remarked as he leaned closer to me. I quickly pushed him away. "Can you act a bit more mature?" Terence paused and looked at me seriously. "Mature? You mean like Isaac?"I froze for a second before realizing that he meant Mr. Shore. "What are you talking about?" I asked, turning my face toward the window. I couldn't be bothered to argue with him anymore.Terence went on, "Mrs. Shore Senior was just joking earlier. Don't take it to heart. Isaac's in his 30s and still hasn't brought a woman home. Honestly, we think he might not even like women. Anyway, don't waste your time thinking about him. You two aren't a good match."I rubbed my temples, feeling a headache coming on. "Terence, can you just give me a few minutes of peace? Stop jumping from one topic to another."Mr. Shore and I were basically strangers. We'd barely exchanged a few words. How could I possibly think of him that way?Finally, we arrived at my apartm

I thought about how Gregory had taken Christine to the dinner party yesterday. It was hard to believe that he could turn his back on her after a night. Christine suddenly burst into tears—not quiet or restrained, but uncontrollable sobs.I was caught off guard and didn't know what to do. "What's wrong with you? Don't just cry. Say something!"It was a long time before she finally managed to speak. "He asked me to meet him this afternoon. He told me that he brought me some vitamins, which were good for the baby. I really thought they were vitamins…"I was shocked. It turned out the abortion pills hadn't been taken by Christine herself—Gregory had tricked her into it. I felt the recorder in my pocket but decided not to play it for her. Knowing what his family had said would only break her further.Just then, I saw her picking up her phone. "Who are you calling?" I asked. There was still a flicker of hope in her eyes as she replied, "Gregory. I just want to ask him what he's think
