Chapter 86
The person stood in the shadow, and their face was not visible.
But a voice calling out “Quinn” could be heard.
Cathy was instantly terrified and rushed over, grabbing the person’s hand, “Calix, none of those things are true. Don’t believe Anya. It’s all fake! I didn’t… I didn’t do that. No matter what evidence she presents, don’t believe her.”
“So, should I believe you then?” The person spoke, with a hint of playfulness, a touch of recklessness, and a bit of sarcasm. Obviously, it was not Calix’s voice!
Cathy suddenly realized and looked up. She saw a young and handsome face. “Oh… Robin?”
Seeing Robin clearly, Cathy’s face turned even paler. She wanted to pinch herself, but she couldn’t. Robin looked at her with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “I can’t believe it. The esteemed goddess Cathy would actually do something like this. I wonder what my cousin would think if he knew?”
Cathy’s body trembled again, her face as white as paper. “What Anya said… it’s all lies!” She tried to refute, but her words lacked conviction.
Robin touched his ear. “Since it’s all lies, why don’t I go to the place she mentioned and find that person? Maybe I can find someone like that.”
He quickly recited the address and even the phone number that Anya reported. Cathy: “…” Her embarrassing secret had been exposed, leaving her in extreme awkwardness. Her eyes trembled, and tears were about to come out.
Robin found it boring and sighed before taking off his helmet and walking away. “Robin!” Cathy grabbed the corner of his clothes. “You won’t… tell Calix, will you?”
“Rest assured, I won’t tell my cousin.” Robin saw through her thoughts completely. His lips and eyebrows were tinged with mockery. He pulled his clothes away with disgust.
Although Cathy lost face, Robin’s promise gave her some relief. As long as Calix didn’t know, it didn’t
matter who else knew.
“Why don’t you show all this evidence to Calix?” On the way back, Fredrica couldn’t heln h… Anya. She hadn’t fallen asleep and had certainly heard o
Chapter 86
Anya smiled faintly, “What’s the point of telling him?”
She stumbled upon this information shortly after her divorce.
“Let him know what kind of person Cathy really is,” Fredrica insisted.
“He already knows, but whether he leaves Cathy or not, it doesn’t matter to me anymore.” Anya’s eyes remained calm. When she talked about Calix, there was no longer any trace of emotion, as if she were talking about a stranger.
“At least you should retaliate against this scumbag.” Fredrica couldn’t let go of what happened to Anya.
Anya pinched her cheek, “Instead of wasting time retaliating against an ex, why not think of ways to earn more money and live comfortably?”
“Good point!” Fredrica agreed wholeheartedly.
Returning to the starting point, everyone came over to congratulate them. Anya politely responded but didn’t show much happiness. For her, this was a predictable match. Originally, she had come just to accompany Fredrica, but she also ended up dealing with the scum. It felt like a win.
Everyone was back in high spirits, preparing for their respective races. After witnessing the two previous matches, they all knew that Anya was unbeatable, and no one dared to challenge her.
As Anya gathered her belongings to head home, Fredrica was interrupted by a young enthusiastic second–generation entrepreneur who wanted to discuss a telemarketing project.
Feeling a shadow behind her, Anya thought it was Fredrica and shook her head, “Get in the car.”
But the person didn’t move.
Anya found it strange and looked up.
Only then did she see the man in a suit and realized it wasn’t Fredrica.
The man standing in front of her was tall, with broad shoulders and a slim waist. His appearance was noble, his features deep–set, and his eyes profound.
It was Calix.

His hands hung by his sides as he looked at her, his face showing little expression, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.
“Why did you marry me back then?” Calix didn’t continue the conversation but asked instead.
Anya was stunned, looking at him.
In four years of marriage, he had never asked this question. Now, he suddenly seemed interested?
“What are you after?” Calix’s voice came again. He lowered his head to look at the woman in front of him, half a head shorter. Despite her formidable racing skills and her ability to earn a lot of money solely through racing, she had good looks and was not the type of person who needed to rely on powerful people to live a good life.
“What am I after?” Calix’s words were like a thorn, ruthlessly poking at her sore spot. A feeling of humiliation spread from her heart, unraveling her bit by bit, like unraveling a cocoon.
Sharp and painful!
Until now, he still thinks that she married him for what reason?
After the pain, what surged up was a feeling of being humiliated, as if screaming wildly.
Suddenly, she was furious!
Furious, she laughed back, “Blind and foolish back then, I made a mistake. Sorry.”
Clearly, it was him who forgot the promise and betrayed her, yet he asked her for what reason.
Truly ridiculous!
If he had asked these questions during their marriage, she might have told him everything honestly. But now that they’re divorced, what’s the point?
“Blind and foolish?!” Calix asked this question sincerely, but he got a quick short response like that?
With these four words, Anya completely denied their entire marriage, even him as a person!
The more furious he became, the colder his expression and gaze turned. His lips curved into a smile, a smile as freezing as ice!

“In my presence, anyone can claim to be wronged, except you. You have no right!” He spoke ruthlessly, “Forgot, didn’t you? You wanted to marry me, I didn’t force you!”
Anya stared silently at the man in front of her, with his cold face and emotionless words. She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. His words turned all her efforts into humiliation!
Calix’s heart was always as cold as stone whenever he faced her. Since he was cold, why should she be passionate?
She stood tall, her small face the size of a palm showing a resolute look. “Calix, you just said anyone could say these words to me, except you… have no right!”
She threw his own words back at him!
Calix couldn’t believe what he was hearing. He saw her gaze, cold and firm! She looked distant and noble!
Clearly, she was the one who made the mistake, but why was she so righteous?
Calix felt uncomfortable, even regretful for coming to find her.
“You’re shameless!” He scolded, his gaze once again disdainful.
Anya walked over, hiding herself in his shadow. Her eyes were getting brighter. She pursed her lips, revealing deep lip creases, “You asked me earlier for what reason? Considering all the effort I put into you, Calix, no matter what I wanted from you, you should have given it to me without a second thought. Even if I wanted half of the family property, you wouldn’t lose out!”
Her words made Calix’s brows furrow, his face changed visibly and looked extremely unpleasant.
His expression was like saying, “I knew it!”
She indeed went after the wealth of the Quinn family.
“But…” Anya’s words took a turn, and her face had a genuine smile. It was as pure as early spring camellia, without any impurities. But unfortunately… it gave people a bad feeling.
“I want nothing! Like I said before, consider it poverty alleviation, a gift to all of you!”
Having said that, she turned and walked away.

Calix’s face turned even worse after hearing this. This woman not only forcefully argued but also claimed that she was doing poverty alleviation!
He reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her back. “Let’s make things clear today. What significant contribution have you made for me and the Quinn family?”
“Isn’t it poverty alleviation? Even if it’s just a boast, there should be something worth boasting about shouldn’t there?”
A feeling of sudden constriction stuffed into Anya’s chest, as if someone had placed a stone there.
It was hard and cold.

It swelled and caused pain in her chest!
She bit her lips tightly to prevent herself from slapping him in the face.

If he wanted to account for things, then just be honest about it.
She smiled calmly, thinking about settling the grievances between the two of them in this way, her heart feeling as if it were being cut with a knife, “Calix, you seem to have forgotten…”
