LOGINWhen we're in a meeting during an overtime shift, Jazmine Garcia's secretary, Alvin Bauer, whisks a powerbank from her bag, as if it's the most natural thing to do in this world. Jazmine merely glances at him. She opts not to comment anything and just continue the meeting instead. The next morning, I hand over a divorce agreement that I've just printed. Jazmine chucks it into the trash can impatiently. "All this just because Alvin used my powerbank?" I nod for a moment before shaking my head. "It's because he never told you that he wanted to use your powerbank, and yet he took it from your bag in a natural manner. On top of that, you didn't stop him from using your powerbank, too." Jazmine shoots me a nasty glance at my words. Then, she drops her signature onto the divorce agreement before throwing it at my face. "You really have too much free time on your hands! All you do is pay attention to such menial matters and picking fights with me over them! "I've already signed the divorce agreement! I'll have you know that since you have the guts to bring up divorce, you should be ready to suffer from the consequences! I will never go back to you!" Jazmine and I are childhood friends, and our relationship has spanned for more than 20 years. She refuses to believe that I'll give up on our relationship over such a petty matter in such a short time. But the straw that ends up crushing the camel is never the final straw.
View MoreTwo more years later, after I'd settled into my career and stabilized, I decided to follow my parents' wishes and form a marriage alliance with a woman of their choice.Though it wasn't that I was just following what they said. I really liked the person they picked out for me as my wife too.Her name was Rosanna Oleson, and she was bright and passionate, a blooming red rose, just like her name.She was two years younger than me, and she introduced me to many new and exciting experiences, such as skiing, ice skating, skydiving, and even free climbing.At first, I thought I only liked her because of the proximity effect and because she was the next woman I met after such a harrowing experience in my last relationship. However, when she sat by the beach, singing along as she strummed the chords on her guitar, I knew that she was the only person my heart would continue beating for.We fixed a date for our wedding after that.On the day of our wedding attire fitting, I waited outside
The procedures and paperwork for relocating abroad went smoothly.Mom and Dad had already purchased a manor in the new country ahead of time, and we moved in uneventfully. I officially began preparing to take over their company, starting at the bottom to gain experience. My life was happy and fulfilling so far.At times, Mom and Dad would casually set me up on blind dates with potential marriage partners. However, the wounds in my heart hadn't healed, and I found it difficult to move on to a new relationship at once.I didn't want to deceive or mislead anyone, so I politely rejected all of them.A year later, after independently completing my first project at the company, I was given the opportunity to form my own project team.The first thing I did was to contact my former colleagues, extending an olive branch toward them. Everyone had reservations at first because the company was located overseas, but there were also a handful of people who willingly hopped on without hesitation
Mom was the one who picked up the call. She seemed to already know Jazmine's purpose for calling and said calmly, "You don't need to say another thing. Colin's already explained everything to us."Go and complete the divorce proceedings tomorrow morning. Don't worry about the asset and property division settlement. I'll handle that with your parents."Jazmine panicked. She shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, wait! Mom, you must be mistaken! I never said I was divorcing Colin! I was just joking!"Mom sighed long and hard. Finally, she said, "Jazzy, you know very well whether you meant it as a joke or not. Our entire family will be relocating abroad, so don't bother calling us again."Honestly speaking, both my husband and I really liked you, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. You've also already met someone more suitable for you, right?"We will respect your wishes, so please respect ours as well and don't bother us anymore. Let's not let this get ugly."That is all. Goo
Jazmine was completely stunned. The staff member on the other end of the line repeated himself, and she finally responded. "I never made the appointment. Who did?""It might have been your husband…"Jazmine hung up on him before he could finish. Then, she glared coldly in the direction I'd left and laughed coldly."You're really something, Colin Whitaker, stooping to doing something like this this time. I can't believe you even got someone to fake the call."The building security guard suddenly knocked on the door and entered the office, handing a formal envelope to Jazmine."Your package, Ms. Garcia."Jazmine opened it and widened her eyes in shock at the document title on the front page. She muttered, "A divorce lawsuit? What? Colin's suing me for divorce? How's that possible? It's fake, right? He's just trying to make me fold, isn't he? This is fake, isn't it? He forged it, right?"Alvin was beaming ear to ear when he realized that I was going through with the divorce for r
