"Let's talk about it here and now. I don't want another misunderstanding," Dustin insisted.

"Must you be so difficult?" Dahlia frowned.
She was trying to make peace with him, but Dustin seemed to not be having any of it. He was being mean and talking down to her in a disagreeable manner.

"Ms. Nicholson, we are already divorced. Since your status is of such a high rank, it is better for us to not be seen together. I would only embarrass you." Dustin scoffed.

"I don't understand. Why are you being such a jerk?" Dahlia was getting annoyed.

"Are you seriously asking me?" Dustin stared back at her.
"Wasn't this your choice?"

"I." Dahlia couldn't say a word in retaliation. Yes, she did initiate the divorce. However, there was no need to keep bringing up the past.

Despite her struggle to calm herself down, Dahlia could feel resentment rising within her. Seeing Dustin with another woman triggered her frustration and anger. These feelings became more and more intense as their fight escalated.

"Dustin, I know you despise me. Nevertheless, I don't think I've made a mistake. Besides, I've given you many chances to redeem yourself!"

Dahlia's tone turned icy. It was not easy for her to reconcile with others, given her prideful nature. Moreover, Dustin threw it in her face.

"So you mean that I'm still in the wrong?" Dustin could only laugh.

"I'm not in the mood to argue with you as we are irrelevant now. Having said that, you shouldn't be flaunting your new partner in front of me if you have any respect for me as your ex-wife!" Dahlia said gravely.

"Respect?" Dustin laughed harder. "How about Chris, then?
Even before we got divorced, you were already having an affair with him. How could you even demand respect?"

"Regardless of whether you believe me, I'm innocent and my conscience is clear, Dahlia retorted, her head held high.

"Is that so?" Dustin smirked and pointed at Chris, who was walking toward them. "I would like to have a look at that clear conscience of yours!"

Both of them had been fooling around in bed. Now, they were even at the charity dinner together.

What a joke for her to claim that she was innocent! Dahlia frowned slightly, but she did not explain herself. First, there was nothing to explain. Second, Dustin wouldn't believe her anyway.

The economy is pretty bad.
