Chapter 1575 Divorce
Natalia's arrival only solidified Gideon's misconduct, shattering his image as a humble educator. Nothing could be more convincing than having his legitimate wife publicly testify against him.
The situation escalated further due to Natalia's presence. All the parents had been eagerly snapping photos or recording the scene. What started as mere Instagram posts quickly spiraled into a widespread online spectacle.
Abigail tried to shield her humiliated face as Gideon bellowed at the parents. He pleaded with the parents to stop taking photos, insisting it was a private family matter that had been misunderstood.
Unfortunately, the crowd paid no heed to his pleas. People were naturally drawn to juicy gossip. At that point, no one believed it was simply a misunderstanding.
That said, Natalia hadn't shown up by chance. It turned out Abigail wasn't the only one who had received the message.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Wynter was well aware of Natalia's circumstances, recognizing her as a dedicated teacher. Wynter believed there was no reason for Natalia to be ridiculed.
On the other hand, Natalia had realized someone was aiding her. Her gaze inadvertently fell onto Wynter, who stood dashingly beside her superbike. She took a moment to study Wynter before taking a deep breath.
In truth, Natalia had only recently discovered Gideon's unusualness. For years, she had devoted herself to teaching and hoped that the students could achieve excellent results, particularly those who relied on education to thrive. That compassion had extended to Abigail.
However, Natalia never imagined Abigail to be the one ruining her family. She had been receiving provocative messages for some time and could no longer tolerate it—she was ready to confront Gideon.
An hour ago, Natalia received a message claiming to have evidence of Gideon's misconduct. The sender even offered to help her uncover the homewrecker. After much thought, she decided to follow her heart and came to the scene after school.
The last message she received read, "Don't you want to see the cheater's and homewrecker's downfall, Ms. Zaretsky?"
Throughout the years, Gideon had never stopped belittling her. In truth, they were once rivals during the evaluation for the best teacher. However, she now learned that Gideon won through underhanded means.
Despite being the school principal, Gideon constantly undermined Natalia. He rebuked her for focusing on poor students, unable to understand why she cared about those without influence or status.
He belittled her knowledge, insisting she knew little beyond teaching math. He even scorned her for not dressing up and socializing, treating her as an embarrassment.
Although Natalia was wounded by Gideon's betrayal, she couldn't afford to have a breakdown as she was responsible for the senior students. Still, she couldn't shake the distress at night. Her hair even began to fall out as Abigail continued to send her provocative messages.
When Natalia finally saw the sources of her anguish confronted and surrounded, she felt a wave of satisfaction.
Those two should've faced the condemnation long ago, yet no one believed that Gideon would cheat on her. After all, she had a family that everyone envied.
Gideon had always portrayed himself as gentle and humble. In contrast, Natalia often came across as short-tempered and frequently lashed out at him.
Amidst the chaos, Natalia finally realized there were no bounds to Gideon's maliciousness. She felt no need for hesitation. "Let's head to the courthouse tomorrow, Gideon. It's time for a divorce."
Although Giden had sensed something was off with Natalia lately, he merely gave her the cold shoulder.
He secretly hoped that she would initiate the discussion about the divorce. In truth, he held her in contempt for her inability to advance his career and for not bearing him a son.
