The West household.
At this moment, the atmosphere was tense.
Pamela held the phone and rushed over to Morgan, “This matter, what has happened? Did Erica destroy someone else’s family? Has the Chairman of Starlight Media publicly clarified?”
Morgan furrowed his brows, looking extremely exhausted.
Lily had caused trouble all day, and he had to console her all night, feeling tired and drained.
Before he could catch his breath, Pamela brought such news to him.
The Chairman of Starlight Media had tormented him for a whole day and night, but early in the morning, an announcement was released, stating that they were getting a divorce.
They even made their divorce papers public, and the divorce date was exactly the same as Erica and Morgan’s!
What did this mean?
The Chairman of Starlight Media had the right to date anyone.
It was his freedom!
On the contrary, Morgan’s interference yesterday was unnecessary!
Creating a fuss out of nothing!
Damn it, at this time, the media was also confronting him, repeatedly showing him blaming Erica in front of the cameras!
“No, this is not Nancy’s fault!”
“I want to advise that woman, young, healthy, there are many ways to make money, becoming a third party is foolish and the easiest way to ruin one’s
life, it’s best not to do it!”
These words turned into audible slaps, hitting his face hard.
Repeating… over and over!
Morgan couldn’t utter a word, he could only clench his lips and remain silent.
His silence only made Pamela more worried.
地
“If the Chairman of Starlight Media truly wants to clarify things, he should have made a statement as soon as the news was released. But he waited until the next day, after saying those words!”
“What does this mean? Is it just to help Erica and make us lose face?”
“This woman, she is so malicious! She wanted the divorce herself, and now she humiliates us like this, what is going on?”
“Morgan, don’t let her get away with her arrogance. Now, find the Chairman of Starlight Media and expose her true face!”
Pamela was always elegant, sophisticated, and high–class, but inside she was extremely sensitive and couldn’t tolerate any injustice.
Morgan gently tapped his forehead in pain, stood up, and spoke with a satisfied tone, “They publicly announced their relationship, what is there to expose?”
After speaking, he turned his back and walked away.

His steps were quick and hurried, filled with annoyance!
“Morgan!” Pamela called out, taking a few steps to chase after him.
But in the end, she didn’t dare to force him to come back.
Since the incident ten years ago, Morgan no longer had any affection for her.
Now, even though they lived in the same house, their relationship had become very cold.
Morgan walked quickly out of the house, only stopping when the iron door closed behind him with a loud bang.
His chest was filled with a sense of betrayal.
He took out a cigarette, placed it in his mouth, and lit it.
After a few puffs, he saw a woman standing across from him.
Erica.
Today she was wearing a solid–colored shirt, paired with a long white dress, standing on the side of the road, graceful and slender.
But just a few days after the divorce, her mood and style had completely changed, completely different from when she was in the West household.
Was it because of her love for the Chairman of Starlight Media that she could be like this?
The heaviness in his heart grew day by day. Erica also looked at Morgan.
With just one look, she could tell that he wasn’t happy.
In fact, Morgan was not someone who liked to show his emotions on his face, but Erica was too familiar with him.
Before, when she knew he was sad, she would feel heartbroken, worried, and restless because she wanted to comfort him but was not accepted.
But now, she was no longer like that.
She calmly approached, “The current evidence has proven that I am not immoral, can Lily be returned to me?”
Her gaze gently looked at him as if looking at a stranger, her lips also formed a gentle and polite smile.
This smile exuded unfamiliarity!
A choked feeling enveloped Morgan, and after a while, he finally said, “Lily is also my daughter.”
Erica didn’t answer, she continued to smile at him, her lips curved in a mocking arc.
Unclear, but enough to remind Morgan of her previous accusations.
Remembering his indifference towards Lily!
This silence was more heartbreaking than a direct punch to his face.
He took a breath, “I need to investigate some issues before discussing Lily’s custody!”
After speaking, he opened the car door and got in.
Erica was faster, grabbing the door that he was about to close, “Investigate what?”
Morgan just looked at her, not responding.
In fact, she knew that he was investigating things related to her.

She wanted to say, what could she ask directly, but in the end, she only smiled lightly without saying a word.
Even though she knew this, he didn’t believe it.
Erica bit her lip, letting go with a sense of helplessness, “I’ll give you two hours, after two hours, I must pick up Lily!”
Not pleading.
Not negotiating.
But a decision!
In just a few short days, Erica’s transformation was truly remarkable.
Remarkable to the point of being like a completely different person.
This momentum, Morgan had never seen before.
He didn’t reply, he just stepped on the gas and drove away.
“Chairman.”
In the company, Linda saw him and approached.
“Nancy has been severely criticized because of the leaked email incident, is there a lunch appointment to meet?”
Morgan didn’t react at all to this, only saying, “Find out the true identity of the Chairman of Starlight Media!”
“The Chairman of Starlight Media?” Linda was clearly very surprised.
Then she understood, he was concerned about Erica’s divorce and its connection to the Chairman of Starlight Media.
That woman, Erica, had no existence in Morgan’s eyes, right?
Why all of a sudden was he concerned about her?
“Chairman, I think now you should focus on Nancy and spend more time with her.” Linda was Nancy’s close friend and couldn’t help but remind Morgan.
“Assistant Linda!” Morgan sternly warned, “If you feel you can’t be a good assistant, you can resign immediately!”
Linda: “…”
This was the first time Morgan had spoken so harshly to her, and Linda’s face turned red.
In the end, she could only nod, “Okay.”

“No need to search for anything else, go find the divorce file from April 22nd!” Morgan reminded softly after Mai left.
After Linda left, he angrily loosened his tie.
He didn’t know why he had to look for information about the Chairman of Starlight Media.
Was it to find out which man could love Erica to the point of not wanting his own family anymore?
Divorce on the same day, it was obvious that Erica had been waiting for it for a long time!
But why was he concerned about Erica?
A shameless woman like her, who had used tricks to force him to marry her in the past, but constantly claimed it was because he was not good enough.
Women like her should be pushed far away, no longer having any connection until death!

Feeling extremely frustrated, he raised his hand and called home, “Arrange Lily’s belongings in two hours, so Erica can pick her up!”
“Cry, cry, all you know is crying!”
After returning home, Diana immediately scolded Lily.
Being humiliated by Erica like that, but unable to retaliate, she felt terrible.
Pamela sat at the tea table, uninterestedly sipping her tea.
