No Strings Attached

Chapter 568



Clara's heart was aching beyond words. Yet, she had always restrained her emotions, silently shedding tears.
She lifted her gaze to lan, her voice choked with emotion. "Ian, when we got married, you said that in the days to come, through sickness and health, through hardship and ease, we would walk through it together. Were all those vows just a formality to you?"
"Clara, I'm sorry, but I can't bear to see you get hurt anymore. If we separate, the York and Campbell families will return to how things were, and you and Dad will be safe. Connor knows you're my weakness, so he's been targeting you relentlessly. With you by my side, I can't fully commit to this battle. To save my mom and grandfather, to avenge our child, I have to leave you. Clara, because of me, you've lost too much. I don't want to drag you down anymore."

Clara stared at him with tear-filled eyes. "Ian, think about all the trials we've been through together. If I had let go even once, we wouldn't have made it this far. I've worked so hard to be with you. Can't you do the same? If you let go now, we will never have a chance to return to how things were. You will watch me marry someone else, Ian. If you can bear that, then I agree to separate."
Clara had cornered him. She knew lan loved her; he couldn't bear to see her marry someone else.
She had already lost everything she could lose, so what more was there to fear?
At worst, it would mean death. But even in death, she wanted to be by lan's side. She didn't want to see him fight alone.
Hearing her words, tears streamed down lan's face. His Adam's apple bobbed uncontrollably.
He couldn't stand the thought of her marrying and having children with someone else. He couldn't bear the thought of her living a life without him, without any connection to him. But what else could he do? Apart from separating, how else could he protect her?
lan's tearful eyes quietly observed Clara. His voice was low and hoarse. "Clara, let's break up."
Hearing these words again, Clara just calmly looked at him. She knew that no matter what she said now, she couldn't change lan's decision.
She wiped away her tears, a bitter
smile playing on her lips as she looked at lan. "Fine, since you've decided and have no regrets, let's divorce. But I have one condition. I will represent myself in our divorce case. I want to claim back everything you owe me from these years."
lan responded without hesitation, "Okay."
The two of them just quietly looked at each other. There was no resentment, no cursing, only indescribable pain.
After Clara was discharged from the hospital, the first case she took on was her own divorce case. Due to the recent turmoil within the Hayes Corporation, this divorce case also attracted significant media attention.
Clara stood at the lawyer's bench, her voice clear, her demeanor calm. She never lost her composure.
She listed all the past sufferings and the hurt lan had caused her during their time together. In the end, she successfully claimed two hundred billion from lan's assets, which was nearly two-thirds of lan's current fortune.
This divorce case not only rocked the legal world but also shocked the entire media network.
Some said Clara was cold-hearted
and merciless lan was already in
such a dire state, yet she still so
much of his wealth, making it

impossible for him to make a comeback. Others envied Clara. She
got married, divorced, and then became a billionaire.
