"You! Fine, you, you, always quick with your sharp tongue!"
Carmen's face turned pale and then flushed as she clutched her head and slumped down.
"My blood pressure! Alexander, bring my medicine quickly!"
Alexander handed her the medicine and water, helped her take it, and then looked solemnly at Lyon.
"Are you trying to anger my mother to death? Lyon, the family has treated you well. Don't go too far!"
Lyon felt the irony.
"She's your mother, not mine. If she wants to die, let her. You treated me well? What has the Moore family given me? Haven't I been the one making all the sacrifices for the past three months of our marriage? I gave up my job, my family, and my entire life to take care of your household chores, I arranged everything for you, how did you treat me? Who is the one going too far?"
"Are you cursing me?" Carmen said, clutching her chest.
"I never asked you to quit your job. You were the one who was too lazy to work. Don't blame me," Alexander defended himself.
"Me, lazy? I had a promising future too, Alexander! It was your mother who forbade me from going out to work, saying that a good husband should stay home and take care of the children!"
Carmen looked disgusted.
"I told you not to work, so you just didn't? I never saw you be so obedient. Clearly, you just want to enjoy the luxurious life of a Moore family son-in-law. And you make it sound so noble. You're truly a scoundrel." She took her son's hand sympathetically and said, "Son, divorce him quickly. This kind of Omega isn't worth it. It's all Grandma's fault, insisting that you marry him. I disagreed from the beginning, he's from a humbly peasant family, he can't match you at all. My poor son."
The more Carmen spoke, the more the fire in Lyon's heart burned. It burned his heart until it ached.
"Mrs. Moore seems to have forgotten that divorce is important to both parties. You don't really think Alexander wants a divorce, so I'll cooperate obediently, do you?"
"What do you mean? Are you refusing to divorce?"
"Why should I divorce? Didn't you say it? I enjoy the comfortable life of the Moore family's son-in-law."
"Lyon, you will never enjoy anything from the Moore family again, including this villa. You won't stay here another day!"
"Well, then I'll just expose my marriage to Alexander to the media. By the way, I'll also leak that he had an affair during our marriage. Guess with whom? The home-wrecking fox. He's even pregnant with his illegitimate child. The evidence is rock solid. Mrs. Moore, do you think this news is explosive enough? Won't the Moore family lose face? How much will the Moore Group's stock price fall?"
Carmen looked horrified and angry.
"Alexander, you heard that, didn't you? He's truly malicious. He wants to ruin you, he wants to destroy our family! You've brought home a hellish Omega, he's bared his claws. All his previous gentle and calm demeanor was fake, even Grandma was deceived by his handsome but hypocritical appearance!"
Alexander was also surprised. Lyon had never spoken like this before. He had always been a quiet and obedient Omega, kind-hearted like a doll. Now, he was like a different person. But now it's as if he has unleashed his sharp claws and even threatened them.
He said coldly.
"Lyon, what do you want? Just say it. No need to beat around the bush."
Looking at his attractive and indifferent face, Lyon felt as if his heart was bleeding. However, he managed to say.
"Divorce agreement. Give it to me, I don't want anything from this miserable family."
"What?!"
Carmen was so angry she turned pale.
"Miserable? We, the Moore family, are worth 9 billion, but have you looked in the mirror? Do you think you're worth anything? You're a poor peasant."
"I'm sure, but I'm worth more than that."
"You're dreaming!"
"Don't you want a divorce? Give it to me to sign."
"Mom, I'll handle the divorce myself. You don't have to worry about it anymore, go home first."
Carmen glared hatefully at Lyon and turned to leave.
Alexander looked at Lyon and spoke coldly.
"You shouldn't have spoken to my mother like that, you went too far. You even let out your pheromones."
Lyon's eyes had turned red uncontrollably.
"Alexander, you shouldn't have treated me like this. You married me, allowed another Omega to have your child, and then cast me aside. You went too far."
Alexander uncharacteristically didn't respond and remained silent. Because he knew deep down that, in fact, he was in the wrong in this matter.
"I'll compensate you in the divorce, I'll give you 500 million. It's a reasonable figure."
"I don't want it, give me the document to sign."
"I'll be back with it tonight." Having said that, he also left.
In the luxurious villa, only Lyon remained in an instant. He pulled at the corner of his lips, revealing a smile that looked like crying.
"Everyone has left in a huff, making it seem like I'm the owner
of the villa."
Having muttered to himself, he lowered his head and looked at his trembling hand. The hard face had faded. His calm demeanor just now was all a facade.
He was never good at arguing, but when pushed to the limit, even a rabbit could bite and bare its claws.
Alexander had done something so absurd, and Mrs. Carmen even had the nerve to come and insult him and also accuse him of having a lover. How could he continue to live here?
After calming down a bit, Lyon took out his cell phone and called his father and brother.
"Dad..."
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Come get me... When will you come?"
"Just tell me, your brother will be available to pick you up. It was about time."
"After I sign the divorce, I'll call you."
Hearing this, Father Lyon's blood began to boil and he felt extremely frustrated for him.
"Didn't I say you wouldn't marry him? We should cut those secret ties with his company. Why do you have to humiliate yourself like this? You're a Ford, the wealthiest Omega."
Henry got angry, thinking about how his son was being mistreated.
"When I asked you not to marry and you wanted to go ahead, I asked you to hide that you have money and that you're a Ford, you hesitated, but you agreed with me. Now, look carefully at how they're treating you, they're not sincere with you. If they had known you were a Ford, you wouldn't know what kind of family they were. They're miserable."
"Tell me honestly, did you have a bad time in the Moore family, did your mother-in-law offend you?"
"Dad, Mrs. Moore treated me so coldly and spoke in such a mocking tone, as if she had blatantly humiliated me."
Lyon cried to his father, he just wanted to vent. He took a deep breath and calmed down, he wasn't willing to anger his father.
"It has nothing to do with you. You act excellently and yet they still don't look at you except with contempt."
"Mrs. Moore's cold attitude towards me wasn't solely due to not having money. There's a problem with Alexander and I'm preparing to divorce him. I'll call you to pick me up and, certainly, let's stop doing business with them."
"We can't let go of it all at once. You'd better come and take care of your father attentively, do you hear me? I'm here to spoil you again. Although these days I have to travel."
Lyon could no longer control his emotions, he felt too heartbroken, his voice choked with the emotion of seeing his father and brother again.
"Dad, don't you want to ask why I want a divorce?"
"What's there to ask? At most, Alexander just has an Omega on the side. Don't act deliberately and create more problems. Let me tell you, just turn a blind eye and come home. He'll see he lost the best of husbands, the best Omega... The Moore family, it's a large clan, it cares about its reputation. Here, your father will help you get revenge."
