She absolutely refused to kneel before Renee, the woman she had always looked down upon. That would be an absolute hit to her ego, and she�d rather face death than to experience that.

�Zachary Johnston, if you really want to bring that up, fine! Let�s get a divorce then! I�m done enduring your antics anyway!� Charlotte pointed at the man, not backing down at all.

She hadn�t quite been happy during their entire marriage anyway, despite having all the riches in the world. However, her pride didn�t allow her to become someone who was kicked out of the family, nor did she want to hurt her son.

Thus, she couldn�t bring herself to get a divorce.

Now that it had come to this, she no longer wished to hide her true feelings. At the very least, she didn�t want to seem weak in front of Renee.

Renee, on the other hand, found the situation rather odd, especially with Zachary kneeling before her and Charlotte crying profusely.

I just came to take a look at this kindergarten with Adie! How did I end up messing up someone else�s relationship?

�Tsk tsk tsk. Looks like I�ll have to step in.�

�Mr. Johnston, please get up first. Even if my family helped you, I didn�t have a part in that. You two really don�t have to get a divorce because of me. I can�t possibly bear knowing that I was the cause of a broken marriage.�

However, Zachary seemed as if he was glued to the ground. �Miss Everheart, you�re the last remaining descendant of the Scheneider family now. Back then, your family had to face such a terrible fate� It was a shame that my family was just starting up then, and we couldn�t help you the way you helped us.�

�For decades, my father felt extremely guilty because of that. He would always tell me to appreciate and repay someone�s kindness at all costs. So thanking you now is considered good karma for my family��

�Since my dumb b*tch of a wife refused to apologize for what she did to you earlier, and insulted your son, I have decided to divorce her. You don�t have to persuade me otherwise!�

�Ah, hearing this kind of reminds me of a lot of sad memories though�� Renee let out a long sigh.

Back then, her grandmother�s family, the Scheneiders of North City, had really thrived tremendously.

Even though she had not seen it with her own eyes, Renee had heard a lot of rumors. Everyone kept saying that her grandmother was a strange woman and that she had carried the Schneider family to glory with her own strength to become the top family in North City.

Back then, whether it was the Hunt family from Beach City or the Baldwin family from Sutton, all of them were subordinates of the Schneider family.

But such a legendary family had been extinguished by unknown forces within a month.

Since then, the Schneider family declined in North City, and eventually, the legend became an actual myth. Strangely enough, although the Schneider family fell, the Everheart family rose.

Some said that the rise in the Everheart family�s reputation was thanks to Liliana�s manipulation behind the scenes.

But decades later, the Everheart family also fell in a tragic way, ending up with.the same fate as the Schneider family! JrNovels.com
