The next morning, Noah was nowhere to be found when I woke up.
As I ate my breakfast sandwich, I took a deep breath and opened my phone after a 3-second mental
preparation.
To my surprise, all the hateful comments seemed to have evaporated overnight.
The media outlets that had criticized me most harshly even had their official accounts suspended.
One of the few media friends I was still in contact with sent me a photo of my parents visiting their
company, with the caption: “It’s all taken care of.”
I smiled.
I knew my parents wouldn’t really abandon me.
After all, they had always stepped in to smooth over all my big and small troubles before.
Pop-up comment: “I can’t believe it, every time the second male lead quietly helps the villainess, he has to give all the credit to those good-for-nothing in-laws…”
“Noah, the champion of the CEO world at washing underwear with a cold face. When his wife is in a good mood, he happily serves her. When his wife is in a bad mood, he coldly serves her.
“What a shame, the villainess doesn’t understand anything. She was so blatantly disgusted last night. Even though she avoided divorce for now, she probably can’t escape her fate of being forcibly imprisoned in the end.”
Shocked, I shifted my gaze from the pop-up comments to my phone screen.
I stared at the photo of my parents for a full ten minutes before finally noticing signs of Photoshop…
Lopened Snapchat and scrolled to the very bottom to find Noah:

“Are you free today? I have something to discuss with you.”
He replied instantly: “Wrong person.”
料
“No, it’s not~ Hubby~”
This time he replied much slower:
“I’m very sorry about last night, for letting you see those disgusting things. I’m very busy today. If you want a divorce, contact a lawyer first.”
“No no no,” I quickly refuted, “It’s not about divorce.””
Noah: “Alright, see you this afternoon.”
Pop-up comments:
“LOL, ‘divorce’ – no time. ‘Not divorce’ – see you this afternoon.”
“That was close, the villainess narrowly avoided the dark room play again. Why do I feel like she’s becoming self-aware and trying to save herself?”
“Why do I have a feeling something bad is about to happen at this plot point, but I can’t quite
remember what…”
