Her Mind Is Full of Juicy Gossip

Chapter 469 Aunt Greta Is Divorcing

Afterward, how he would confront his family was no longer something that Isabella was concerned about. This was merely a minor incident in the grand scheme of things, after all. There was no need to mention this minor issue to the other elders. They didn't want Lionel to feel obligated to visit the priest again. However, it seemed like the matters the priest had spoken of were still ongoing. On that day, while everyone was enjoying themselves at the Quirk estate, they heard a commotion coming from the main building. Lionel was upset and in the midst of a furious rage. The younger generation didn't dare to approach, merely waited for someone to come over. Only then did they receive news that there had been an incident with Greta. Greta and Niel were returning this time for their divorce proceedings, so Greta had informed the family in advance. Someone exclaimed, “Oh my God, another divorce?” Although the previous few divorces were due to Isabella uncovering the truth, this divorce had nothing to do with Isabella at all. She was merely an innocent bystander. Sure enough, there was something off about the Quirk family's energy. This time around, Isabella quietly observed from the sidelines. Since she hadn't seen those two, she was completely clueless about what had transpired. David, Selena, Eric, and Felix were all somewhat upset. “That Niel, I can't believe I used to think he was a decent guy! Before he married Greta, he was completely uninterested in women and always kept to himself. But look at him now! He's actually considering divorcing Greta for someone else.” “Why did he fall for another woman when our Greta managed their home so efficiently and even took care of the logistical work for his business? How could he be so blind?” “Who knows! Greta didn't make it clear. We'll have to grill them for details when they get back.” “What about the Zimmer family? What's their stance?” “The Zimmer family is well aware of their wrong. They hope that the couple won't divorce, but they have no intention of sending the other woman away either. Such is the custom in their household - maintain a stable home while entertaining extramarital affairs. They wish for Greta to remain as the head lady of the Zimmer family but are adamant about placing that woman where Niel works.” Upon hearing this, Isabella furrowed her brow. Noticing her confusion, Alexander quietly explained to her, “The Zimmer family primarily conducts their business in third-world countries. After marrying Niel, Aunt Greta moved to the wealthiest and most bustling country on that continent to live together with the Zimmer family. However, Niel's business requires him to be stationed long-term in another, more dangerous country. He might only return home for a couple of days each month due to his responsibilities in transporting goods.” I get it now. The Zimmer family wants Aunt Greta to stay at home and be the face of their wealthy household as a show of their status. At the same time, they're willing to allow their son, who is working hard in another country, to have a caring and understanding woman by his side. Therefore, they don't think it's necessary for Aunt Greta to divorce. Unfortunately, a woman brought up by the Quirk family probably can't navigate the complex dynamics of a wealthy household, where husband and wife lead separate lives, so she has no choice but to divorce. However, it seems that Niel doesn't oppose the divorce either. While his infidelity is detestable, if he can cut his losses in time, it would be the best choice for Aunt Greta. Once the heart has changed, it's no longer pure. Continuing to maintain such a relationship would only waste Aunt Greta's life. Upon hearing Isabella's rambling thoughts, David and Selena, who were originally filled with righteous indignation, suddenly felt that perhaps it wasn't such a terrible thing to see someone's true colors and turn away sooner. Having calmed down, their focus was now on securing more benefits for Greta. It wouldn't be fair if she ended up with neither the man nor the money, especially considering he was the one who cheated first.The information they had was limited, so even though everyone was quite upset, there wasn't much to discuss in the end. They could only wait until tomorrow when they would receive the person in question. The following day, Isabella rose quite early. Since he had to meet his relatives, Alexander, who usually would be at the company handling business, had the rare opportunity to cuddle with his wife a bit longer as he was waking up. However, he soon felt her stirring, a sign she was about to get out of bed. “What's wrong? Why are you up so early?” “I need to get ready early. Aunt Greta and the others are coming,” Isabella said excitedly. With a chuckle, Alexander said, “Don't get too excited about this spectacle. After all, it's Aunt Greta's divorce we're talking about. Deep down, she still has feelings for Niel. They were a couple for twenty years and did share some good times together, after all.” Isabella was momentarily taken aback, then swiftly brushed it off with a simple smile. Psh, this whole incident with Aunt Greta isn't anything special. It's just about a man falling for another woman, having an affair, then divorcing his wife. It's the same old story, nothing original. I doubt there will be any juicy gossip. My excitement is actually because I can soon judge whether there's anything wrong with Aunt Greta's family, not because of the gossip.
