Chapter 4 - Compensation Money

After returning from her lawyer's office, Mrs. Catherine asked the driver to find Marianne's whereabouts, she had to talk privately with the kind girl before the divorce proceedings began in court.

She felt very guilty for forcing Marianne to marry Leon, her grandson, even though she knew that from the start Leon didn't love Marianne, the sweet girl who had attracted her heart several years ago. She honestly thought Leon would be able to love Marianne and saw her the way Catherine did. ??

Mrs. Catherine immediately liked Marianne when Marianne helped her during a visit to the museum. Back then, no one else cared about helping an old lady, even though at that time Mrs. Catherine was carrying donations. They didn't know who she was.

Because of Marianne's kindness, Mrs. Catherine immediately liked Marianne, she didn't care that girl looked old-fashioned. A week later, Mrs. Catherine immediately introduced Marianne to her grandson.

Leon was a handsome man who became successful at a young age. He managed to make his family business rise again from the adversity. Leon's popularity soared in the last two years. Many women were heartbroken when the news of Leon's marriage broke out to the public.

"Are you sure you want to end Young Master and Young Mistress marriage, madam?" Bobby asked Mrs. Catherine. He was her personal assistant.

"I don't want to die with regrets, Bobby. It's time for Marianne to be happy on her own." Mrs. Catherine replied with a smile.

"Then, I can only support your decision, Madam." Bobby replied with a nod.

"Drive me home. Then go out with some private investigators to find the girl. She has to receive my will before Leon finds out," Mrs. Catherine said with a serious manner.

"Yes, Madame," Bobby replied obediently.

After receiving orders from the old lady, Bobby ordered the driver to immediately return to Mrs. Catherine Ganke's residence. After he dropped her off, Bobby left with the detectives who had been waiting for him since 2 hours ago.

Apparently, Catherine was serious about what she said. She really wanted to give Marianne half of her fortune.

Bobby and the three detectives hired by Mrs. Chaterine finally managed to find Marianne when they were heading to the museum where Marianne worked.

At first, Marianne did not want to meet Catherine again because she was still very disappointed with Leon's actions. However, after Bobby explained the matter, Marianne finally followed Bobby to Catherine's mansion.

After she arrived at her grandmother-in-law's mansion, Marianne burst into tears as soon as she saw Mrs. Chaterine standing at the doorway. All the pain she felt in her heart was finally managed to get out in front of her grandmother-in-law. Catherine could only be stay still, seeing Marianne crying uncontrollably.

"Grandma already knows everything, Anne. You don't have to cover it up anymore. Just vent all your complaints to me. This is all my fault from the beginning," said Mrs. Chaterine, stroking Marianne's hair gently.

"Please forgive me, Grandma. I can't be a good wife to Leon," Marianne replied haltingly.

"Do not blame yourself, Anne, I know what kind of man Leon is," replied Mrs. Catherine.

"I was wrong, Grandma ... I was unable to be a good wife to Leon until finally he and ... and ..." Marianne could not finish her words because she was crying again.

Mrs. Catherine hugged Marianne with great affection. Not long after, she also told Marianne her plan. When she heard Catherine's words, Marianne gasped in. She couldn't believe her own hearing.

"Are you sure you want me to separate from Leon?" Marianne asked her many times.

"Yes, it's time for you to live happily. I have given you some money in your savings so you can continue your life in the future, dear Anne," replied Mrs. Catherine, gently stroking Marianne's hair.

"I don't need your money, Grandma. I just want to get away from Leon. I want to make Leon happy with his choice because I realized that Leon doesn't love me from the start," Marianne said with teary eyes. Her heart ached when she said that. The truth was, Marianne was in love with Leon, and she was not actually ready for a divorce.

Mrs. Catherine hugged Marianne with great love. She apologized over and over and thanked Marianne for looking after Leon for the past year.

Not long after, Marianne came home with a savings book containing twenty million euros, which was considered as compensation for divorce, and the divorce proceedings would begin the next morning.

"Looks like I really have to let you go, Leon," said Marianne, staring at her wedding ring.
