Giselle saw Tracy’s hand touching the handbag she had prepared for her wedding day.
"Giselle, can I not take anything else and just have this bag? I think it suits me perfectly. What do you think?" Tracy deliberately placed the bag on her lap and struck a pose just for Giselle to see.
"Look, Giselle, doesn’t it hide my belly perfectly like this?" The way she provoked her was as clear as a day.
Giselle took the bag from her. Then, with a single stroke of her finger, she dragged a sharp line across the leather and intentionally left a clear cut on the bag.
Seeing this, Alex's face turned gloomy.
Giselle placed the now damaged bag on Tracy's lap and said, "It's now a secondhand bag, so of course, you can have it."
Alex's face turned even colder.
Giselle continued calmly, " I don’t like other people touching my things. I even repulse of receiving something after someone else has already used it."
Alex suddenly felt an unsettling tightness in his chest. A trace of panic flickered in his eyes as he looked at Giselle.
Did she know something?
He had never felt his kind of scare in the past but at this moment, he did.
He quickly stepped forward and said, "Giselle, if you don’t like this bag, you can have it replaced. There are plenty more out there, you can pick whichever one you want."
Giselle looked at him indifferently. "I have things to do today. I won’t be home. You two can take your time choosing."
With that, she turned around and left. Instead of going to the company, she went to a lawyer's office.
"Miss Diaz, these are all your assets. Since you want to sell them quickly, the prices are slightly lower than usual," explained the lawyer.
Giselle glanced at the finalized numbers. All her property had been converted into cash. She then said, "That's fine."
She took the money and the divorce papers and left.
From a distance, she saw the massive Shaw Corporation building. It's giant screens still broadcasting the date of her upcoming wedding with Alex. They looked so happy.
She once believed it too.
Giselle then went to a photo studio. She handed over the two gigabytes of photos and videos Tracy had sent her and asked the owner to print them all.
The owner hesitated as he glanced at her gloomy face. It seemed he wanted to say something but he finally kept his silence.
***
Giselle took a large gift box and carefully put the divorce paper inside of it.
When she got home, her hand was carrying the gift box.
As soon as Alex saw the gift, his handsome face brightened with long-lost joy. "Is this for me, Giselle?"
Seeing him reach for it, Giselle handed it over to him and said, "It’s a gift for you and it must be open on our wedding day. Not before."
Alex’s eyes gleamed with happiness, and his face full of excitement. "Giselle, I know you’ve been upset with me these past few days. I’m sorry."
He took the gift and pulled her into an embrace. The moment he did, Giselle felt nauseous.
Just then, Tracy came downstairs, her voice dripping with sweetness. "Alex, why did Giselle only get you a gift? Why didn’t she get me anything?"
Alex replied in a gentle tone, "Tracy, this is my wedding gift."
Giselle said, "Alex, let's put the gif in the save.
Alex immediately agreed. His face was still beaming with joy as he carried it upstairs to store it away.
As soon as he left, Tracy’s expression shifted. Her previous playfulness vanished.
"Giselle, you’re really something. Even after everything, you’re still willing to be Alex’s wife." She sneered.
Giselle answered calmly, "Tracy, as long I am Alex's wife, you'll always be the other woman."
Tracy's face twisted in fury, but she quickly composed herself and gave a playful smile.
"Do you know what Alex said while you were out today? He said I should stay here as his ‘sister’ for now. Later, he plans to adopt my child under another name and raise it as yours. Giselle, can you believe it? You and Alex aren’t even married yet, and he’s already scheming to make you raise my child as your own. Oh, he said all his assets will eventually go to my baby. After all, you can’t have children. However, you ... you’ll raise mine like it’s your own. Isn’t that hilarious? Giselle, you should just hurry up and die. That way, Alex won’t have to keep plotting against you."
