News of Tony Zhang’s infidelity quickly became the hot topic in the media. On top of that, some younger models also claimed that they had slept with Tony Zhang and were promised fame but this never happened. Instead, when Tony Zhang was done with them, he quickly moved on to a younger and more beautiful model and totally forgot about them.
Seeing all the responses from the Media, Chen Shi had another celebration for her win. The sympathy that she got this time was overwhelming. After all, many people believed that they had the perfect marriage.
“Are we going to accept this interview?” Chen Luan asked.
“No. Tell them… I don’t have any comments for now.” Chen Shi responded. She is a heart broken woman now. How could she have a media interview? What she needed to do was grieve. Grieve due to her husband’s betrayal.
“Hmmm… Mr. Zhang still refused to sign even after seeing those horrible comments about him. I wonder why he is so confident about this.”
Chen Shi squinted her eyes. “Are you sure that Lily and Zhou Jingren are not meddling with this?”After talking to Zhou Huifang and Qi Xia, Chen Shi made sure to be thorough about everything.
“Yes, I am. We have all the emails and phone calls that Mr. Zhang has received. We also have his schedule for the past few weeks and he has never interacted with Lily, Zhou Jingren, or… any of your ex-husbands.”
“Hmm.” Chen Shi sipped at her tea as she nodded. How could Tony Zhang have the confidence that he will still survive after all the scandal and threats that she gave him?
“I think… this is because… Mr. Zhang is underestimating you.” Chen Luan continued. “If you think about it. Mr. Zhang has been very sexist in this marriage. At first, he insisted that you stop working and stay at home like a beautiful trophy wife. Then all the properties that he purchased during this marriage are all under his name simply because… he thought he was the provider. In my humble opinion. This man… is underestimating you.”
“I have the same suspicion that this is the reason why he did not sign the divorce. How could he let someone like me win? I am nothing in his eyes. He never… once thought of me as an equal. I believe he is underestimating me.” Chen Shi added. Men like this wer the reason why she hated them.
She snorted. Disgust apparent in her face. Tony Zhang will regret this. He would regret everything that he had done in this marriage. “So… the shares? How many do we have so far?” She asked.
“Twelve percent. Some shareholders still refuse to sell their shares because they are quite close to Mr. Zhang.”
“Did you try and double the offer?”
“I did. But… they still refused. Some said this was not about money but loyalty. These people have worked with Mr. Zhang since the company started. They know how talented he is.”
Chen Shi gritted her teeth in response. Loyalty? That word is nothing but a word! It does not exist. These people refused to sell their shares to her simply because she was a woman.
There was no other reason. Those people are sexist pigs who only look down on women. The thought of this only made her more infuriated. “And… my daughter?” This was another problem she is facing right now. How could her daughter just vanish without any records?
“I think… Jun Liang is hiding her. Maybe he is planning to use her against us? Even Ron can’t find her anywhere.”
Problems and more problems. Chen Shi felt her headache just from thinking about these matters. Originally, Chen Shi was not planning to divorce Tony Zhang. However, the paparazzi had collected more and more pictures of him and his mistress in bed. While Chen Shi offered payment to keep them quiet, some people were taking advantage of this and deliberately took more pictures so Chen Shi could pay them.
Moreover, she was afraid that one day someone from the big media companies would get a hold of this and would use this against them. Chen Shi gritted her teeth. This was all Lily’s fault. Since Lily came into the picture, all of her plans were ruined.
Since Lily came, even their company suffered some problems. And now divorce was looming over her head. That woman is a bad omen!
She let out a sharp breath. Dealing with Lily while having all these problems is very difficult. “Do you have an update about Lily’s father?”
“Yes. He proposed to Miss Su and they will have dinner with Lily soon. But since Qin Yuanfeng left the country, he won’t be able to join them.”
The mention of Qin Yuanfeng’s name instantly made her scowl. That man was another problem of hers. What kind of man would avoid a beautiful woman who was clearly interested in having a relationship with him? Was that man gay? She wondered. He must be!
“Alright.” Chen Shi said. She then opened her tablet and started reading the news about her husband’s infidelity. The kind words from her fans instantly made her mood better, lighter. A smile dangled on her lips. She scrolled down and started checking out videos from drama channels.
At least, she still had the backing of her fans. No matter where she goes… these people would always stand behind her. Chen Luan’s gasp interrupted her thoughts. “What’s wrong?” she asked.
Chen Luan stared at her. He didn’t utter a word as he handed her his tablet. Chen Shi instantly read the contents of the news.
Slowly, her face turned ugly. She bawled her hands into fists as she started reading the article that was released a few seconds ago. “Take this down!” She yelled. “I want you to take this down now!”
As expected, Chen Luan rose from his seat and started calling people. Why did a media company start writing about Chen Shi’s relationship with her children? The article was clearly saying that Chen Shi chose fame over her children.
What kind of media company would release this now that Chen Shi was about to have her divorce with her cheating husband?
