When My Ex's Worst Enemy Became My Sanctuary novel Chapter 180

Jarrett’s face was stone cold. In all their years, their family had never been this humiliated.

Worse yet, the whole disaster had played out right in front of their biggest rivals.

Could it get any more embarrassing?

“Albert, I have to be honest, I wasn’t on board with this marriage in the first place. The Brown family is really nothing special. You could have found someone who fits you better. And Layton is just too calculating.”

“Carola has always been known for being spoiled. But after this, I think it’s more than just being spoiled… I think it’s a real character flaw.” Jarrett let out a heavy sigh.

“But Grandpa, Albert already signed the papers with Carola. Is divorce even an option now?” Carmen couldn’t help stirring the pot.

Her mom reached over and pinched her thigh, hard. Carmen winced, biting her lip.

But when she caught her mother’s sharp stare, she clamped her mouth shut.

“Dad, I really think this must be a misunderstanding. We’ve known Carola since we were kids. She would never do something like this.”

Deep down, Albert just couldn’t believe the little girl who used to hide away in the attic was now the cold, heartless person he saw in that video.

He simply didn’t want to believe it.

Carmen muttered under her breath, “Why not? She used to love picking on Dorothea when we were little.”

“What did you just say?”

Sarah shot her a glare.

Carmen shrugged, “Nothing. Carola’s always been the sad, pitiful one, right? Other people bully her, she’d never bully anyone else. Is that what you want to hear?”

Albert pressed his lips together. He caught every bit of sarcasm in Carmen’s voice. He wanted to say something, but right then his father’s phone rang.
