Chapter 320 The Face That Couldn’t Be Ignored

Finished

Taylor furrowed her brow. She’d only met Yunice a few times. Last time, when Lily falsely used Yunice, she had defended her purely because they’d been on the same side.

But now, she and Yunice should be on opposing teams.

She looked at the little bottle of ointment in her hand… Why would Yunice want her to make the injury worse?

Suddenly, her expression shifted–she got it.

“Any parent will protect their own. The Kendall family will stand by me. The Powell family will naturally stand by Paul.”

“I got pped, and to the Kendall family, that’s a massive humiliation. But to the Powell family, it’s just a little marital spat. Grandpa will definitely brush it off, tell me to suck it up. And since I pped Paul too, technically I’m not in the right either.”

Taylor immediately understood and, without hesitation, applied the ointment to her face.

“Miss!” n panicked, thinking Yunice might be trying to trick her.

But when Taylor lifted her head again, n’s face twisted with visible shock.

There wasn’t any pain on Taylor’s end, but judging by his expression, she asked, “Is it that bad?”

n numbly nodded.

Taylor turned and walked straight into the main hall. As she entered, she caught the sound of Paul tattling.

“Grandpa, Taylor’s wild and overbearing. This isn’t the first time she’s humiliated me in public. She doesn’t understand what it means to be a proper wife. A woman like this only brings disgrace to the Powell family!”

The old man squinted at him. “So what do you want?”

bPaul /bsaid firmly, b“/bI want a divorceb!/b”

The old man replied, “You can get divorced.”

Before Paul could beven /bbreact /bwith joy, the old man added, “As long bas /byou’re capable of taking over the Powell family business. Then I won’t stop you from marrying whoever you want. When Taylor married in, she brought a dowry worth ten billion. She holds five bpercent /bof Powell Corporation’s sharesb. /bYou want to divorce her–can you afford that?”

Taylor stood just outside the door, smiling faintly bas /bshe listened. So Grandpa bidid /i/bknow how important she was.

Then she really wanted to see how he nned to handle this situation.

“Grandpab…/bb” /bTaylor walked in, bhead /bbowed in sorrowb, /band stopped beside Paul. “I want to divorce Paul.”

Paul blinked, surprised, Why bwas /bshe keeping her head down like that? He couldn’t see her bface /bclearly.

Still, he didn’t think too much of it. It was just one p. Not beven /ban injury. Grandpa wouldn’t do anything bover /bthat.

The old man took a deep breath, sounding disappointed. b“/bbPaul /bbeing immature is one thing–but how could iyou /ibe bso /bthoughtless? Marriage isn’t ba /bbgame/b. You think you bcan /bjust bget /bdivorced bwhenever/bb?/bb” /b

Linda, who was serving tea beside the old manb, /balso chimed in, “It’s normal for couples to fight. Didn’t you p Paul to get

She walked over, trying tofort Taylor. “But you weren’t entirely bright /beither. Men bcare /babout saving bface/bb. /bHow could you p him in front of everyone? He’s still your husband.

The word “divorce” wasn’t even finished when Linda suddenly froze, her hand reaching out to touch Taylor’s shoulder–then bshe /bgasped bin /bhorror band /bcovered her mouth.

The old man, alerted by her scream, looked up with irritation–ready to scold them all for giving him a headache—when he too saw Taylor’s face.

Half her face was zing red, like it had been scraped with sandpaper.

Linda couldn’t believe it. “This… this was from Paul?b” /b

Taylor asked calmly, “Who else?”

Linda hesitated. No p should’ve caused this kind of damage. It looked like she’d been wed by a bear.

Taylor looked at Linda. “Did your father–inw ever hit you like thisb?/bb” /b

Linda’s expression turned awkward.

Paul was dumbfounded. “Yeah, I pped her, but there’s no way it did that kind of damage. Taylor, you’re faking it, aren’t you?”

Taylor looked at the faint mark on his cheek and said bitterly, “I pitied you because you’re my husband. When I hit you, I didn’t even use force. But for your little side chick, you nearly beat me to death. Do you think I dare stay in this marriage?”

Paul stared iat /iher, trying to figure out what game she was ying.

The old man, upon seeing her face, realized this couldn’t be brushed off. He shouted, “You bastard! Still standing there like an idiot? Take your wife to get her face checked!”

Taylor took a deep breath, as if she had given up on everything. “No need. Today is my father’s birthday. I’m going home to attend the birthday party… I won’t stay here at the Powell family and get in everyone’s way.”

Birthday iparty/ii? /i

That meant the Kendall family’s friends and rtives would all be there.

And Taylor, walking in with a face like that?

No way the Kendall family would let that slide.
