작가: Crystal L.C
last update 게시일: 2026-06-13 22:07:04

Inside prison, Pete's life continued getting worse.

The days seemed longer than they should have been. Every morning felt heavier than the one before it, and every night brought fresh bruises, fresh humiliation, and fresh reminders that the world he once controlled no longer existed.

The respect he used to command outside these walls meant absolutely nothing here.

In prison, nobody cared about his former wealth, his former company, or the expensive suits he once wore.

  • Divorce the Cheat, Return for Revenge   Chapter 176: Her Plan Before Death

    The ballroom of the Grand Elysium Hotel shimmered like something pulled from a dream.Crystal chandeliers hung from the high ceiling, scattering soft golden light across marble floors and tables draped in white silk that caught every glimmer overhead.A string quartet played quietly in the corner, their music weaving through polite laughter and clinking glasses filling the air. Every guest looked carefully composed, dressed in expensive fabrics that whispered rather than shouted their wealth.It was a charity gala, one of Chapman Corporation's most visible events of the year. Officially, it was about children's healthcare and educational outreach across the region.Unofficially, it was about influence, reputation, and quiet deals made behind warm smiles exchanged over champagne.Petra stood at the center of it all.Her gown was elegant, deep emerald green, fitted perfectly to her frame in a way that turned heads without trying. Her hair was styled neatly, her makeup subtle but refin

  • Divorce the Cheat, Return for Revenge   Chapter 175: The Story Written Without Her

    The news reached Jordan Group quietly, but its impact was anything but subtle.A financial auditor, one of the most meticulous and cautious men in the firm's external regulatory team, was found dead in what authorities quickly labeled an accident.The official statement said he slipped while inspecting a private property connected to one of Jordan Group's subsidiary firms.A fall from a balcony. A tragic misstep. A man who had simply been in the wrong place at the wrong time, according to the report filed.But in a world already thick with tension and unanswered questions, no one truly believed in coincidences anymore.The whispers started immediately after the news broke. In boardrooms and hallways, over carefully worded emails and hushed phone calls, people asked the same question repeatedly: what had he been looking into before he died?The answer, when it came, only deepened the unease settling over everyone. Financial records. Account transfers. The same period that kept surfacin

    The news reached Jordan Group quietly, but its impact was anything but subtle.A financial auditor, one of the most meticulous and cautious men in the firm's external regulatory team, was found dead in what authorities quickly labeled an accident.The official statement said he slipped while inspecting a private property connected to one of Jordan Group's subsidiary firms. A fall from a balcony. A tragic misstep. A man who had simply been in the wrong place at the wrong time, according to the report.But in a world already thick with tension and unanswered questions, no one truly believed in coincidences anymore.Malcolm was the one who told Petra.He did not do it in the middle of a meeting or over the phone. He waited until she was back at home, seated in the quiet of the living room, reviewing documents with a tired focus etched across her face.When he walked in, his face was serious in a way that made her immediately look up from her papers."What is it?" she asked, her instinct

  • Divorce the Cheat, Return for Revenge   Chapter 173: I Will Protect You

    Zoe Fox was buried in a silence that did not feel like peace.The funeral was private, almost painfully so. No press. No flashing cameras. No public spectacle of any kind. Only a small gathering of people who had either loved her, feared her, or been tangled in her life in ways they would never fully explain to anyone.The cemetery sat at the edge of the city, far enough away that traffic noise did not intrude on the proceedings. Tall trees swayed gently in the soft afternoon breeze, their leaves whispering above the neat rows of gravestones surrounding them.The sky was pale, neither sunny nor gloomy, as if even the weather could not decide how it felt about the woman being laid to rest that day.A modest white casket rested near the open grave, surrounded by flowers that spoke louder than the mourners themselves. Lilies. Roses. Orchids. Each bouquet carried its own quiet story within it.One of them had no name attached to it.Petra had arranged it early that morning through a priv

  • Divorce the Cheat, Return for Revenge   Chapter 172: Confess Publicly

    Oscar had learned, over the years, that the most dangerous threats rarely announced themselves loudly. They arrived quietly, buried beneath routine, hidden inside patterns most people were too distracted to notice at all.That was why he trusted unease more than certainty. And right now, unease followed him like a shadow throughout the day.He didn't tell Petra what he was doing.Not yet, at least.Outwardly, everything remained normal. He showed up to work. He attended meetings. He listened when Petra spoke about restructuring plans and future projections for the company.But beneath that calm exterior, he was pulling threads, one by one, careful not to unravel anything too quickly before he understood the full picture.He started with old contacts, people he had met during his years of international consultancy, regulatory oversight, and crisis management around the world.Men and women who worked in places that never appeared on business cards. People who asked questions without

  • Divorce the Cheat, Return for Revenge   Chapter 171: Fingerprints of the Past

    Petra returned to work the way some people returned to prayer, not because it erased pain, but because it gave pain somewhere to sit without destroying everything else around her.The Chapman Corporation headquarters buzzed with its usual controlled urgency the morning she walked in. Nothing had changed here. That steadiness was exactly why she came back.If she stayed home, her mind would wander to darker places.If she stayed idle, memories would become loud and overwhelming.So she chose movement. Purpose. Structure to hold herself together.Her heels clicked against the marble floor as she walked into the executive wing, posture straight, expression composed. To anyone watching, Petra Chapman looked like a woman fully in control of her life and everything in it.Only she knew how much discipline it took to hold that line steady.Inside her office, the glass walls let in soft morning light. The city stretched beyond the windows, alive, indifferent, moving forward without apology

    Elizabeth had marched halfway into the grand hall in a storm of fury, but the moment she reached the center and noticed the cluster of reporters standing only a few steps away, she halted so abruptly that Kevin almost bumped into her from behind.The microphones stretched toward her like thin black

    Pete collected the file from Petra’s outstretched hand, his fingers tightening around the edges as his eyes dropped to the bold letters printed across the first page.The words DIVORCE AGREEMENT seemed to hit him harder than anything Petra had said that morning.For a brief moment he just stared at

    “There, there,” Petra murmured softly, her voice warm and calm. “Mommy is here.”The baby made a small sound and kicked his tiny legs against the blanket.Petra lay on the hospital bed, her back slightly propped up with pillows.Her face still looked pale, but there was a soft smile resting on her

    “It’s… it’s alright.”Zoe’s reaction changed so quickly it almost looked rehearsed. Just seconds ago she had flinched at the glass shattering near Pete’s feet, but now her face softened into something that looked like concern.She stepped closer to Pete, her fingers reaching for his hand as though
