Supreme Mars

Chapter 54 Divorce

When Leo returned to Violet Residences, Lydia was yet to get off work. But the villa's door was

unlocked when he arrived.

He then saw a pair of white canvas shoes the same size as Lydia's at the entrance. But as far as Leo

could remember, Lydia always wore high heels, and sometimes flats. She had never worn canvas

shoes like a young girl would.

"Perhaps she just bought them." Without thinking much, Leo pushed the door open and walked in.

The 316 Incident was a myth, and it was almost impossible to uncover the truth easily. But Leo was not

worried at all; any problem could be solved with a bit of digging.

Leo looked at the time and found that it was rather late in the afternoon.

So, he went to the kitchen and busied himself there. He wanted to make a fancy dinner for Lydia when

she got home.

He cut the vegetables and meat and threw them into the pot effortlessly. It was obvious that he had

excellent cooking skills.

Ironically, he had Rebecca to thank for it; in the past, she made Leo take ownership over the household

chores.

In addition, she was very picky about her food, and made things difficult for Leo constantly nitpicking

his culinary efforts. As a result, Leo's cooking skills improved drastically over time.

Those who had tried his dishes in the military were deeply impressed too. Even Sharon Bell, the cold

beauty in the military changed her impression of him after she sampled his cuisine.

He soon finished the preparations.

He placed a steak and soup on the table, then sat on the sofa, waiting for Lydia with a smile.

Suddenly, the sound of flushing the toilet came from the bathroom on the first floor and spoiled the

mood, and then the door opened.

"Wow, that smells so good..." A tall girl who looked similar to Lydia came out. When she saw the table

full of dishes, her eyes immediately lit up.

Leo did not expect to see a stranger coming out of the bathroom. He frowned slightly and asked, "Who

are you?"

The girl immediately turned around like a frightened rabbit. But when she saw Leo, she froze for a

moment and then stared at him as if she had recalled something.

After a long while, she asked uncertainly, "You're my brother-in-law?"

"Brother-in-law?" Leo looked up and down at the girl in front of him.

Her facial features were delicate and she looked exactly like Lydia at first glance, but different upon

closer observation.

A world away from Lydia's usual coldness, this girl was brimming with the aura of youth.

She also looked much younger than Lydia; around the age of a student judging from her appearance.

But the resemblance between them was still uncanny.

Leo fell into deep thought and recalled that Lydia had never talked about her family before.

During the time, the girl had sat down beside Leo and sized him up and down. She said in shock, "No

way! Are you really my brother-in-law?"

"What's wrong?" Leo frowned as he had sensed the undisguised disappointment from her tone.

The girl looked a little grim and said, "My sister is the most beautiful woman in Valenham. Why would Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

she fall in love with a guy like you? Is there anything special about you?"

Leo glanced at her and ignored her. What others thought of him was hardly important.

Suddenly, the girl stared at Leo and said seriously, "Hey, you'd better divorce my sister as soon as

possible."

"Divorce?" A hint of sharpness flashed in Leo's eyes but he was not angry yet. "Why?"

He could tell that the girl did not say that with ill intentions. Instead, she seemed… concerned for him?

The girl did not seem to be joking. "Because you’ll die miserably otherwise. My dad will kill you."

Leo smiled and did not take it to heart. "Your dad? Is he very powerful?"

"Beyond your imagination." When speaking of her father, there was fear in the girl's eyes. She sighed

and said, "There are some things that you'd better not know. My sister has a complicated background,

so I doubt that you'd want any part of that..."

"Enough. I won't divorce Lydia. She is my wife and we have a cute daughter. We will grow old

together!" Before the girl could finish, Leo interrupted her with a cold face. "I know you have good

intentions, but no one can break up our family."

The girl looked at Leo in surprise. She could clearly feel that the temperature in the room dropped a

little when he said these words.

But she soon came to her senses, and became irritated with his attitude, "Why won't you listen to me?

You can marry anyone you want, but not my sister!"

"If you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, you might deserve my sister, but you’re nobody.

Sorry, I don't mean to look down on you, but..."

The girl seemed to be a little anxious and blurted out, "You’re not worthy of my sister at all. You even

got her pregnant and had a daughter with her. You tell me; how can my dad let you go after all that?"

When she mentioned what had happened five years ago, Leo fell into silence.

In addition, Lydia has never mentioned her family to me. I only know that she’s from Valenham.

She's probably afraid that her family background will put pressure on me.

Thinking of this, he looked up at his sister-in-law and said calmly, "I can give her everything you just

mentioned. I can make her happy."

But the girl was still unmoved and said loudly, "Don't you understand? My sister is not someone you

can marry because you have money. Do you think you can simply marry her after a hefty bank deposit?

Impossible!"

"I can tell you that all the companies in Emerdale, including Atlas Beauty, are all child's play. They're

not even worth mentioning. The situation in Valenham is much trickier than you think!"

"Since my dad hasn't found you yet, you still have time. Just divorce my sister ASAP. That way, you can

still live."

"If you still don't want to give up, then ask around. My father is named Karl Henderson, and I'm Marie

Henderson. You can ask about my family!"

"Karl Henderson..." A light flickered in Leo's eyes and he memorized this name.

Marie looked at Leo and said more, "I can tell you one more thing. Ever since the news of my sister's

pregnancy reached my dad's ears five years ago, he has been looking for you. As soon as he finds

you, you'll regret it. Do you understand?"

Leo nodded. He guessed that Lydia's father, his father-in-law, had been looking for him for the past five

years. He obviously wanted an explanation for her daughter's pregnancy. Unfortunately, Leo had

already gone to the Wyverns, and gradually rose to the moniker of God of War. So no information

about him could be collected.

Marie's tone became a little unfriendly at this point. "If you didn't show up, everything would be okay.

But why did you have to reappear in her life again? You and my sister won't work. Just take my advice

and get a divorce."

Just as Leo was about to speak, the door was suddenly pushed open with a loud bang. Lydia strode

into the house while holding Emilia's hand.

An ice-cold and commanding voice rang. "Go back and tell him: Who I marry has nothing to do with

him."
