I followed his voice and saw the ring in his hand that I had personally made for him at the wedding for several days and nights.
The wedding venue was so big, it should be quite difficult for him to find it.
He looked at me with joy on his face.
But under his expectant gaze, I picked up the ring and threw it directly out of the
window.
As soon as he reacted, he shouted in pain.
“No!”
His eyes turned red, crying.
“How could you be so ruthless, Joanna?”
Watching him collapse, I remained indifferent.
Instead, I slowly spoke a cruel truth.
“When you said you would marry me, you

regretted it so much. Now I want to tell. you, I actually regret that my dad saved you. I would rather you were the one who died under the car.”
If he was the one who died, my father would still be alive and I would still have
relatives in this world. I would not have to endure so much hardship alone and there would be someone to protect me and ask me if I was tired.
These words were like the sharpest knife cutting into his heart.
At this moment, he seemed to have lost all his strength and collapsed to the ground.
He did not stop me from leaving anymore.
After that day, Leonard did not just avoid
- me.
Even after seeing me, he immediately ran
away.
Instead, Yasmin stared at me intently every day.

Every day, I could feel a resentful gaze closely following me.
However, I ignored them and focused on scientific research and development.
There were a lot of people who hated me, but she was nothing.
This situation lasted for a long time until a serious incident occurred at the research center.
The blueprint samples and data for aerospace research were leaked.
Fortunately, they were intercepted quickly
by the upper level, otherwise the
consequences would have been unimaginable.
And I was in charge of all this information, so I became the most suspicious person.
All of a sudden, colleagues who had a good relationship with me before now kept their distance from me.
I became the target of public criticism.

After the incident, the senior management
contacted me urgently and asked me a series of questions.
This matter was very serious. If the
information was leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
I completely deny that I was the one who leaked the information.
Finally, the person who recommended me to participate in the space program was also my mentor who vouched for me.
The top management also gave me an ultimatum.
“If you cannot prove your innocence within. ten days, you will be required to resign from this research center.”
Time was tight, but I remained calm and composed.
Because I could roughly guess who framed
- me.
After the incident, Leonard finally stopped

avoiding from me and came to find me.
“Joanna, as long as you and I get back together, I will help you find the leaker.”
My eyes narrowed slightly and I said, “No need.”
In a hurry, he stopped me and said, “I can really help you find it!”
“I already know who it is, I don’t need your help.”
In fact, since he was so sure about it, he certainly knew who it was.
Who else could it be?
I just did not expect him to use this as a threat to get me back together with him in the end.
Hearing my words, his pupils shrank.
He bit his lip tightly and said, “But with me, she can confess everything.”
“If it were you, how could you do that?”

1 sneered coldly and said, “Of course I have my own way and you don’t have to sell your charm.”
Seeing me being merciless, he could not help but yell at me again. “Why can’t you forgive me after I’ve done so much?”
