Chapter 2

After I said that, both Chelsea and her husband stared at me with shocked expressions.

"Victoria, it's bad enough Chelsea is being ridiculous, but why are you joining her?!" Ryan, her husband, practically yelled.

"Do you even know why she wants to divorce me? She says she's going to find true love with our son, and that *I'm* standing in the way of her marrying into a wealthy family!"

"Chelsea, seriously, look at yourself! Do you honestly think a Billionaire would even glance at you? And with Leo, who's just a complication, no Billionaire in their right mind would marry you!"

In my past life, I, like Ryan, thought Chelsea was completely insane.

But her brain had been so utterly poisoned by those soap operas.

She genuinely believed she was the suffering heroine from one of those shows, waiting for her Billionaire savior to rescue her.

Last time, I tried to reason with her:

"Chelsea, honey, in those soap operas, when a Billionaire marries a woman with a child, it always turns out the kid is actually the Billionaire's biological child."

"What kind of Billionaire would marry a divorced woman who already has a kid? Do you think those wealthy families would actually raise someone else's son?"

But Chelsea just scoffed:

"That just means you haven't watched enough soap operas! I've seen plenty where Billionaires marry divorced women with kids. Oh, just stop interfering in my life. Once I marry into a wealthy family, won't you be living the good life too?"

Eventually, I gave up. Ryan and I were practically on our knees begging her to reconsider.

In the end, I had to promise her thirty thousand dollars for her to temporarily agree not to divorce Ryan.

Now, I stood by Chelsea's side:

"I respect every decision Chelsea makes. She must have a plan for doing this! Divorce is a huge deal, she wouldn't do it if she wasn't sure!"

Chelsea excitedly grabbed my hand:

"Victoria, you're the only one who understands me!"

Understand you? How could I not? You lunatic, you practically ruined my life in the last one!

"Ryan, if you don't divorce me, I'll sue you for adultery! I'll even call the police and accuse you of domestic abuse!"

Ryan's face was beet red with anger. "Fine! Divorce then!"

Finally, Chelsea got her divorce, just as she wished.
