Chapter 39 Giselle intentionally played the victim . " Oh , Mr. Ferrell , could it be that you're unwilling to divorce me ? Don't you want to marry Sarah ? " Bradley finally couldn't hold back . " Giselle , that's enough ! " The two women argued , and he was getting a headache . However , Giselle persisted . " Mr. Ferrell , it seems to you that I , your ex - wife , can't compare to Miss Sarah . Your heart is as hard as a stone . It's a shame that my wrist is about to be snapped , Mr. Ferrell . " She held up her red wrist with a pitiful and innocent look . Bradley was stunned . He hadn't realised how much force he used . When she cried out in pain in the restroom earlier , he ignored it , and now she didn't even make a sound . Giselle did not dodge his eyes . She smirked . " Mr. Ferrell , you're not heartbroken , are you ? You didn't show the slightest bit of mercy just now . " " Giselle , have you had enough ! " Sarah couldn't take it anymore . She couldn't stand seeing Bradley show emotions because of Giselle . It was just a red mark on her wrist . What was the big deal ? す Giselle wasn't finished playing her game . She suddenly found it more interesting to see Sarah angry than to play the victim . She pretended to be innocent and shook her head . " It's not enough . My wrist hurts . " " You … " Sarah was furious . Just then , a light laughter came from behind them . At the same time , Giselle's expression returned to normal , and she ran in that direction . " Rocco , you finally came ! " " Had enough fun ? " Rocco patted her head . " Not bad . " Giselle raised her eyebrows . " Can I borrow your suit ? " Following that , she took off the suit that was on her and threw it into the trash without even looking at the man behind her . Bradley turned his head and saw the scene . She let that man touch her and even threw away his clothes ! Not only that , but she also wore that man's clothes . However , none of this had anything to do with Giselle . She had no interest in guessing what Bradley was thinking . After changing into Rocco's clothes , she took his arm . Her smile was different from before , and her eyes were filled with starlight . " Let's go . You must have been waiting anxiously . " Rocco , concerned about her wrist , asked , " Does your wrist still hurt ? " She had sensitive skin that would leave marks even with a slight touch . Hence , he had no idea if she was hurt . Giselle pouted . " It hurts . It really hurts . I hit my shoulders just now , too , and it hurts even more . " Bradley , who witnessed everything behind them , was boiling with anger . He stepped forward again to block her way . " Giselle , are you sure you want to leave with him ? " Rocco confronted him . " Mr. Ferrell , watch your words . Gigi had come with me , and it is only normal that she leaves with me . Maybe you should be more concerned about Miss Mendoza over there . " Sarah , who was left behind , raised her head pitifully upon hearing that . Bradley didn't want to talk to Rocco . His gaze was fixed on Giselle . " Are you really not coming back with me ? " Giselle's gaze was cold . " Bradley , not slapping you more than once is already me showing restraint . What else do you want from me ? I've been overseas for three years , and I've already signed the divorce papers . Did I ever disturb you and Sarah in any way ? " " I'm sorry for the marriage , but if you disagreed back then , I wouldn't have forced you to marry me . Still , I've never forced you using my life , have I ? " Why wouldn't he let her go ? She looked at Bradley with red eyes , and the latter remained silent . 1/3 < Chapter 39 +30 Vouchers Rocco didn't intervene in the matter . He had seen how Winnie lived abroad and , before that incident , how much she liked Bradley . She wrote his name in a notebook , called and messaged his phone , and waited for his call and message every day . In the end , she got nothing . She burned everything related to Bradley . The latter was now back . Giselle didn't confront him here for too long . She held Rocco's arm and took a step away . As she left Bradley behind , she said , " Please complete the divorce proceedings as soon as possible . " It was like a scene from a missed encounter in a movie . The two walked away in opposite directions . Giselle finally returned to the lounge . Victoria and the others were worried sick . They saw the red marks on her wrist . " Why did you take so long ? Did you meet someone ? And what happened to your wrist ? If your mother sees this , she'll be heartbroken ." Victoria was truly distressed . Giselle was the only little princess in their family , and she had been living outside for so many years . However , she was still being bullied ! If Giselle had been raised in the Henderson family , who would dare to bully her ? Giselle felt warm within . " Auntie Victoria , I'm fine . It's just my skin . I have sensitive skin that would leave marks even with a slight touch . It doesn't hurt . " Victoria frowned . " Even if you don't feel the pain , it's because someone grabbed your wrist that there are marks . Tell me who did it . I'll have them kicked out ! " How dared anyone bully their little princess ? William also stared at her wriest with concern . " Is it really not hurting ? It looks quite serious . " Rocco , with less concern , explained lightly , " Besides that kid from the Ferrell family , who would dare to lay a hand on Winnie ? But don't worry . They didn't gain any advantage from Winnie . " Rocco wanted to laugh at the thought of those two eating their words when he found Giselle . Giselle was truly talented . Whatever others used to disgust her , she would throw it back at them . Giselle did a pretty good job with the pathetic act ! Giselle also nodded and joked , " Yeah , I gave him a slap , and my hand is still feeling numb . " That slap was delivered with full force , and her palm turned red ! She briefly explained what happened after going out . प Of course , the incident in the restroom and the slap were glossed over until Rocco intervened . The whole thing only ended when Rocco stepped in . Victoria grunted after hearing the whole story . " A slap was too easy on him ! People like him deserve a few more hits ! " Giselle joked to ease the atmosphere , " That won't do . If I hit him a few more times , my hand will hurt too much . If I do that , I'm afraid I'll have to bandage my hand . " " You silly girl . " Her amusement eased Victoria , " By the way , didn't William say he had a present for you ? You guys go first . I still have some things on my side . I'll see you next time . " The fashion show was over , but the dinner had yet to end . Victoria , as the organiser , couldn't leave with them . " Auntie Victoria , we'll be going now . See you tomorrow . " Her stomach still had a slight ache . If she were feeling any better , she would have stayed a bit longer . After a few pleasantries , Victoria and William left together . Rocco stayed behind because there were still some things to discuss . Little did they know that as soon as Victoria and William came out of the venue , they ran into Bradley . 213 Chapter 20 +30 Vouchers Chapter 40 Bradley leaned against the car while fixing his hair tousled by the wind . His noble demeanour carried a touch of charm . Bradley straightened up slightly as Giselle approached . His gaze darkened as he noticed the man beside her . The night wind carried a slight chill . Despite wearing Rocco's suit over her shoulders , Giselle felt cold . Without looking at the man in front of her , she walked forward with William . Just like inside the venue , they brushed shoulders . However , Bradley did not remain indifferent this time . He moved to block her path . " Mr. Ferrell , what do you mean by this ? " Giselle initially intended to ignore him and leave , but people were leaving outside , including some from the media . Though they weren't part of the entertainment industry , a fight on the spot would lead to discussions online . It would be troublesome . Bradley gave her a look and didn't say anything . He looked up and turned to William . " Mr. Wellington , thank you for accompanying my wife outside . The event has ended . My wife should go home with me now . William was somewhat surprised but didn't let go . Expressionless , he said , " Mr. Ferrell , I believe you've signed divorce papers with Miss Giselle , if I'm not mistaken . Besides , you are not lacking in companionship . It wouldn't be wise to provoke another woman , would it ? " The glass of the car window was reflective but close . It was obvious that Sarah , the big star , was sitting inside . Still , Bradley seemed unfazed by what William had said . " Mr. Wellington , you are correct . I have signed the divorce agreement with my wife , but it has not been notarised or processed . Therefore , she is still my wife . Moreover … " He paused and glanced at Giselle with a smirk . " Moreover , my wife addressed me as her husband just half an hour ago . It wouldn't be appropriate for her to deny it now in front of others . " Giselle was shocked by Bradley's shamelessness . " My wife , " how did he say that with a straight face ? If it wasn't one of her cousins she was out with but someone in a partnership , they would probably drop her because of Bradley's words . She couldn't help but exclaim , " Bradley , have you no shame ? I've made myself clear , and your intentions are obvious to everyone . Why do you have to act like this in front of others ? " Bradley , instead of getting angry , chuckled . " Mrs. Ferrell , you said it yourself . Others are just outsiders . What did I do wrong ? You are legally married to me , and there's no problem with us going home together . " Giselle laughed sarcastically . It was the first time she noticed how adept Bradley was at shifting topics . Despite talking about one thing , he managed to steer it to another topic . She didn't miss the slightly rolled - down car window as well . She decided to be straightforward . " Bradley , aren't you afraid that I might really take over the position of Mrs. Ferrell and refuse to let go , leaving you with no place to divorce ? " Bradley met her intense glare and suddenly chuckled . " From the way I see it , you seem more eager for a divorce than I am . What do I have to fear ? " The one wanting a swift end to their marriage was her . Hence , the initiative of doing so was in his hands . Giselle also smiled . She tilted her head slightly . " Mr. Ferrell , aren't you afraid that I might be doing this on purpose ? Luring the tiger out of the mountain is a phrase you should be familiar with . What if I'm intentionally doing this just for the title of Mrs. Ferrell ? " Bradley's laughter grew even more , reminiscent of the mocking tone from years ago as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other in years . Indeed , if it weren't for what had happened for the past few years , they could have been friends . He said , " Gigi , you have a poor acting . I'm not a fool . I can tell when you're genuinely angry and when you're just putting on a show . " Chapter 40 At least , for now , he could tell her poorly act . Giselle's smile disappeared from her face . Bradley observed her changing expression . If she was playing a game , spending the rest of his life competing with her might not be bad . At least it wouldn't be too boring . +30 Vouchers " Mr. Ferrell , your fiancée is right here , and you're still saying such things . It's probably because she has a good temper . If I were sitting there , I would have slapped you and walked away a long time ago . " Giselle didn't want to continue the act with Bradley . She pulled Sarah into the conflict . Didn't he care about this woman a lot ? She'd like to see how he would react if she made her cry . However , Bradley didn't seem to care much . He turned to Sarah and said , " You are you , and Sarah is Sarah . She won't a - 0-90r5ct like you . " Just then , Sarah meekly spoke up , " Gigi , I know you're still upset with me . It was my fault for what happened last time , and I didn't mean it . I'm sorry . Why don't you come back with us ? It's not safe outside . We grew up together . We're family . " " Gigi , Sarah has taken a step back . Why don't you do the same ? " Bradley approached to pull Giselle into the car . Just as his fingers touched her , Giselle forcefully shook him off . She scoffed . Why did she think her acting was bad and not see through this woman's disgusting act ? What a blind man ! She stubbornly looked at Bradley . " Alright , I can go back with you . " Bradley's eyes lit up . Meanwhile , William turned to the side and looked at her in surprise . Sarah , who was inside the car , was equally astonished . A hint of resentment flashed in her eyes . Giselle lowered her head and said , " Sure , I can go home with you , but I want to sit in the front passenger seat . Also , get her out of the car . " Her tone was unapologetically direct ! Bradley frowned . " Gigi , don't be unreasonable . " Giselle shrugged indifferently . " Sarah and I are two different people . This is just how I am . She's taking a step back , right ? Then , she can also give up her seat while she's at it . " Sarah refused to give up her seat . She could act pitifully . However , if she willingly gave up the front passenger seat , wouldn't it mean admitting her identity as a mistress ? Giselle was the mistress instead ! If it weren't for her having a backing back then , how would she have landed the title Mrs. Ferrell ? " Gigi , must you be so excessive ? " Sarah immediately pretended to be pitiful . Giselle smiled . " Yeah , it's not like it's the first day we met ? " It was as if she punched cotton . Sarah was so angry she couldn't even speak . Sarah decided to roll up the car window and stay inside . She wanted to stop listening to the confrontation outside . Temporary Mrs. Ferrell or not , what did it matter ? If she could make Bradley send Giselle abroad back then , she could make them divorce . Giselle decided to wait a little longer and endure a little more . " Mr. Ferrell , if you can't meet my request , I don't need to accompany you any further . Goodbye . " Giselle turned away . Just as she walked away , Bradley stopped her . " Gigi , do you really have to sit in the front passenger seat to get home ? " Giselle tilted her head and smiled . " What else could I mean ? Haven't I made myself clear enough ?
