Collar of Betrayal Chapter 9
After that, I would occasionally hear updates about Caitlin from former classmates. They said that without a degree and with a criminal record, she couldn’t find any legitimate job.She ended up working at shady massage parlors. Because she was older now and no longer attractive, she was stuck doing the dirtiest, hardest work. Customers often picked on her and insulted her.One time, she ran into Jackson, who was fresh out of prison. The same Jackson she once adored showed her no mercy.For a few hundred dollars, he snatched away the wages she had painstakingly saved and beat her. He broke one of her legs. From that point on, she was crippled and was reduced to begging on the streets.Jackson didn’t fare much better. He went back to gambling, racked up massive debts, and was eventually hunted down by creditors. They cut the tendons in his hand, leaving him permanently disabled.The two people who once conspired against me ended up destroying each other in the darkest corners of th

Three years later, due to repeated violent incidents in prison, Jackson had his sentence extended. He would be staying in for several more years.Caitlin, on the other hand, had completed her sentence.That day, I happened to be driving past the women’s prison. I saw a hunched figure stepping out through the iron gates.She was painfully thin—skin stretched over bone. Her hair had gone gray, making her look like a woman in her fifties. In her hand, she carried a worn-out duffel bag.No one had come to pick her up.Mr. Watson had already passed away. Mrs. Watson, unable to handle the shock, had lost her mind and was now in a psychiatric institution. Caitlin stood by the roadside, staring blankly at the passing traffic.Then, a red sports car pulled up in front of her. The window rolled down, revealing a young, strikingly beautiful woman.It was my wife, Sienna Pruitt. She was also my current business partner and the eldest daughter of one of Ardent City’s most powerful families

After that gala, I thought Caitlin would finally give up.I was wrong. She clung to me like a parasite.I don’t know how she got my address, but she started waiting outside my building every single day.No screaming. No crying.She just stood there holding a sign that read: "Looking for my husband, Cameron Pruitt."She even started livestreaming, playing the victim online. She painted herself as a devoted woman who had been abandoned by a wealthy man.On social media, she claimed I dumped her the moment I got rich. Combined with her earlier claim that she had been "coerced", she actually managed to fool quite a few people who didn’t know the truth.Soon, strangers started showing up outside StratNova Group, throwing paint. Online, people began doxxing me, calling me a heartless scumbag.It even started affecting the company’s stock price. Senior management called me in for a meeting. They didn’t say it outright, but the message was clear: if I couldn’t handle my personal mess,

After arriving in Ardent City, it was like I became a different person. I buried myself in work, staying late every night.Only by keeping busy could I temporarily forget everything disgusting that had happened.With the experience from that project and a relentless, almost reckless drive, I quickly secured my footing at StratNova Group headquarters.In just three months, I was promoted twice and became a regional director. My annual salary tripled.During that time, bits and pieces of news from Westhaven still reached me.Due to the large sum involved in his extortion and with all his past crimes I had exposed, Jackson was sentenced to eight years, with multiple charges combined.Logan was also arrested in a later anti-crime crackdown.As for Caitlin, because her involvement was considered less severe, and because she insisted she had been coerced by Jackson—even though the footage showed her clearly enjoying it—she was given a one-year suspended sentence.However, she lost he

When I returned to the apartment, I turned off my phone and slept soundly.The next morning, I was woken by a series of urgent knocks on the door.When I opened it, Caitlin’s parents, Andrew and Natasha Watson, were standing there. They looked anxious, and the moment they saw me, they rushed forward."Cameron! You finally opened the door!""Something’s happened to Caitlin. Did you know she’s been arrested? Go save her! You’re her fiance. You have connections, don’t you?"Mrs. Watson clutched my sleeve, crying hysterically.Mr. Watson stood beside her, his expression stern, tinged with blame. "Cameron, Caitlin may be a little willful sometimes, but she’s still a young woman. How could you let her end up in a place like that?"I heard you were the one who called the police? Couples fight, but they make up. Isn’t this going too far?"Looking at the same faces that used to boss me around without restraint, I let out a silent, cold laugh.Caitlin had become who she was today, and t

I downloaded all the footage and backed it up. I saved copies to both cloud storage and a USB drive.Then I called Reed Martin, a lawyer friend."Reed, draft me a divorce agreement. And… a lawsuit. I want those two to spit out every single cent they’ve taken—principal and interest."After that, I stood up, straightened my suit, and picked up the forged property certificate I had just prepared, along with a bank card that had no money on it.If they wanted to put on a show, I’d play along to the end.When I found Booth 63 at Nightfall Bar, Caitlin was sitting on Jackson’s lap.The two of them were wrapped around each other, sharing a drink, completely oblivious to everyone around them.A few of Jackson’s cronies were nearby, egging them on."Damn, Caitlin’s bold!""Jackson, you’ve got it good. Those legs are insane."When Jackson saw me, he didn’t pull back. Instead, his hand slid even deeper beneath Caitlin’s skirt.She let out a soft gasp before lazily glancing at me. "You’

In that moment, it felt like the blood vessels in my brain were about to explode.I froze where I stood. The glass slipped from my hand and shattered against the floor, shards scattering everywhere.Caitlin Watson flinched like a startled cat and whipped her head around.The sultry look on her fa

I immediately called Caitlin.The phone rang for a long time before she finally picked up. Loud, chaotic music blared in the background, and her voice came through, laced with impatience."What now? Still mad? I bought a new bag, so I’m in a much better mood. I’ll allow you to come home tonight. S

I sat in the living room and smoked the entire night.From the guest room, broken, intermittent sounds drifted out—sounds that made my face burn.Caitlin’s voice, deliberately lowered yet somehow even more provocative, echoed through the walls like the ultimate humiliation.They were certain I wo
