Chapter 6
River looked completely incredulous, refusing to reach for the divorce papers.
“Maya, are you really going to be this heartless? Everything I did was for us! We’re married–don’t you trust me at all?”
Hearing River’s words, I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Trust you? River, do you even hear yourself?”
“You’ve stolen nine figures from the company over three years! For us? How can you even say that!”
River grabbed my hand.
“Of course it was for us! Think about it–the company has so many shareholders, and they all get a piece of everything. But we’re married, so the money I took ultimately belongs to both of us anyway, right?”
“Maya, why can’t you wrap your head around this?”
I yanked my hand away viciously and threw the divorce papers right in his face.
“Stop giving me your twisted logic! Every penny you stole from the company, you’re going to pay back!”
“And then we’re getting divorced!”
After saying that, I didn’t spare River another glance and left with Marcus.
River’s roar echoed behind me.
“Maya, I won’t divorce you!”
Not bothering to turn around, I gave a dismissive wave.
“Then see you in court~”
A week later, River’s and my divorce case went to trial.
As a well–known Houston company, Winston Group–combined with River’s livestream from the week before–drew quite a crowd of media and spectators to our divorce proceedings.
Before the hearing, River intercepted me outside the courthouse one more time.
“Maya, let’s stop fighting, okay?”
“I know you’re upset about Vivian, but I really only see her as a sister. There’s nothing between us. I’ve already removed her name from the property deed, you can check–just forgive me this once, please!”
“If you really can’t stand her, I’ll never see her again. I swear!”
Before I could respond, Vivian spoke up with teary eyes and a pitiful expression.
“Maya, it was all my fault that day. I said the wrong things. Please stop fighting with my brother. I’m begging you.”
“Look at all these reporters out here–it’s so embarrassing.”

From what they were saying, they apparently didn’t know I’d discovered their relationship.
I sneered inwardly.
