Chapter 1: Divorce
Summer’s Point of View
I married the youngest handsome rich guy like I've ever dreamed of.
It was our third year anniversary and yet this was the gift he gave me. A divorce paper.
I used to think that my life would be complete when he would choose to stay with me, but I was wrong. Those three years “together” felt hollow, as our relationship could not be considered a genuine marriage, since he never gave us the opportunity to build a family together.
Why did he marry me again? Oh, I already had forgotten.He is rarely in my presence. Most of the time, I only hear about him on the TV news.[Breaking News! Steven Carter was spotted having dinner with Amby Black, a famous model and actress at a VIP Premium restaurant. It was widely believed that the two of them had had an intimate connection since childhood. Could this possibly be a suggestion that the feelings we believed had been extinguished will be reignited?]The news I heard didn't seem to register in my mind.In the darkness of my room, the TV provided a faint glow. The air conditioner was blowing a chill, leaving a palpable heaviness in the atmosphere. I was just about to reach for the remote to turn off the TV when my phone buzzed.Name on that massage showed: Hubbie ♡ Steven Carter
I clicked open.
[I have sent the divorce papers. All that's left is for you to sign your name on the documents.]
Although he has threatened to divorce me many times and I clearly understand what a stupid role I play in this marriage. But I still find it hard to believe that he actually did it.
I felt a wave of dread when I read the text message. ‘Who am I fooling? Myself? Why can’t I accept the fact that I need to leave this marriage? What else am I holding on to?’
As the salty tears streamed down my face, I felt an aching emptiness, and the taste of despair lingered on my tongue. The simple text message on the screen was distorted by the water in my eyes, making it hard for me to read. I was overwhelmed with emotion as I touched the words letter by letter, as if my chest were being pounded with every beat of my heart.Steven, why do I find it so difficult to love you?Amidst the pain and the heaviness I was feeling, I shed some tears for a few minutes before gathering my strength to take my suitcase and pack the clothes I required for my departure.As I packed my suitcase, my vision blurred from tears streaming down my face, and I could barely make out the clothes and items I threw inside of it.
I was feeling lost in terms of what my next move should be, and I was not sure where I should head, but all I knew was that I needed to take some fresh breaths right now.
I exited through the large door, the rain was coming down in a torrential downpour. The sound of thunder and the intensity of the lightning were so terrifying that I felt like I was the one being chosen to suffer their wrath.Not allowing myself to be scared away, I quickly went out into the rain to put my things inside the car.By the time I had gotten in the car, I was already drenched and water was dripping off my body.Making a conscious decision to hit my head on the steering wheel, I cried out loud again. My hot tears had disappeared, yet they had been replaced with the coldness of the rainwater. The loud thunder was so loud that it was almost impossible for me to hear my own cries.
The rain almost seemed to share the sorrow I had inside me, like it was mourning along with me. I was convinced that it had a way of understanding the depths of my pain at this moment.Taking some time to center myself and regain control, I wiped the tears from my cheeks with my fingers. Then, I started the car.As I made my way out of the automatic gate, I was met with the darkness of the night and I could not make out anything that was ahead of me.The road ahead was dark, but my heart brightened a little by little.
Have I no pride? For him, I've put it down. Yes, I used to, more than once.
Finally, I made my decision.
Three years. That’s pretty much enough as evidence. Isn't it?
Keeping my gaze on the road, I maneuvered my right arm to the passenger seat to grab my phone.
After successfully taking it, I quickly searched for Steven’s text message so I could reply to him.In fact, I had gone through the idea in my head several times, yet I convinced myself each time that this shouldn't be the end.
I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes to send and end this.
[OK. I will sign the divorce paper.]
However, instead of sending the text message, I was distracted by the loud horn of the car that was coming to collide with my vehicle, the light that flushed in my eyes, and the sudden sound of the crash that I heard.Before I could react to what was about to happen, another car had already rammed my vehicle. As I drifted off into unconsciousness, I noticed the sudden buzzing of my phone and a new message I received from Steven.[I’m going home tonight and by the time I get home you should have signed the paper annulling our marriage.]Funny... I find myself in this predicament desperately, and my husband not only asked for a divorce, but insisted upon it.Do you remember, Steve? This was the exact day we got married...? This supposedly is our celebration for our three years of marriage. But why? Why must your gift to me be a marriage that brings nothing but pain? Have I not been the wife you've wanted me to be?As my tears rolled down my face, I felt my hearing and eyes gradually slipping away until all that filled the air was a low hum.Latest chapter
Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 105: Christmas and New Year’s Eve with Family (The End)
The house was aglow with festive cheer. Warm lights twinkled on the Christmas tree, and the scent of cinnamon, pine, and freshly baked cookies filled the air. Stefani stood in the kitchen, putting the final touches on a tray of cupcakes. The sound of laughter and chatter echoed through the living room, where both sides of the family—hers and Jacob’s—had gathered for the holidays.This was exactly how she had always imagined it—a full house, filled with the people she loved most. The twins, Elara and Ethan, were playing with their new toys, their excitement bubbling over as they showed their grandparents everything Santa had brought. Stefani glanced over at them and smiled softly, feeling a warmth in her chest that had nothing to do with the fire crackling in the fireplace.It was Christmas, and in just a few days, it would be New Year’s Eve. A fresh start. Stefani couldn't help but reflect on how much had changed since the last holiday season. The ups and downs, the struggles, the tri

The warm sunlight streamed through the curtains as Stefani stretched, listening to the excited giggles from down the hall. Today was a special day, one she had been anticipating for weeks—Ethan and Elara's fifth birthday. Five years. Stefani could hardly believe how quickly time had flown. It felt like just yesterday she was cradling two tiny newborns in her arms, overwhelmed with love and exhaustion. Now, they were running around the house, full of energy and life, growing faster than she ever thought possible.The house buzzed with activity as Stefani got ready. Balloons lined the walls, colorful streamers were draped across the ceiling, and the smell of freshly baked cake filled the air. Today wasn’t just about celebrating the twins; it was also about celebrating how far their family had come—through sleepless nights, laughter-filled days, and moments that had tested them but ultimately brought them closer.“Mommy!” Elara’s voice echoed down the hallway, followed by the sound of li

Stefani’s heart fluttered with excitement as she paced the living room, her phone clutched tightly in her hand. She glanced at the clock for the hundredth time, mentally calculating the minutes left before Jacob was supposed to arrive. The house had been transformed into a celebration space, a labor of love that had taken weeks of planning and countless late nights spent coordinating with friends and family. The air was thick with anticipation, and the only thing left to do was wait for the guest of honor to walk through the door.Jacob had reached a major milestone in his career—winning a prestigious award for excellence in business management, something that had been his goal for years. It was a recognition of his hard work, long hours, and dedication, but more than that, it was a symbol of how far he had come. Stefani had watched him pour his heart and soul into his work, even though he once lost sight of their family.So, when she heard about the award, Stefani knew she had to cel

The sun was just starting to rise, casting a golden glow over the city, but Stefani had been up for hours. Her heart raced with a mixture of excitement and nerves as she stood in front of the mirror, brushing her hair and making final adjustments to her outfit. Today was the day. After years of dreaming, planning, and putting it off for her family, she was about to open her very own bakery.Stefani had always loved baking. It was more than a hobby for her; it was a passion, a way to express her creativity and share joy with others. From the time she was little, she would spend hours in the kitchen, covered in flour and experimenting with different flavors. But as life moved forward—marriage, children, and all the responsibilities that came with them—her dream of opening her own bakery had taken a back seat.Until now.Jacob had been her biggest supporter, urging her to follow her heart and make this dream a reality. He’d helped her find the perfect location for the bakery—a charming l

The school auditorium buzzed with excitement, filled with the soft murmur of parents, teachers, and children waiting for the talent show to begin. Stefani sat beside Jacob in the front row, her heart racing with a mix of pride and anticipation. She held Jacob’s hand tightly, glancing at the small stage where, in just a few moments, Ethan and Elara would perform in their first-ever talent show.The twins, now five years old, had been practicing for weeks. Every day after school, Stefani and Jacob would find them in the living room, dancing, singing, and occasionally arguing over who got to lead. It had been a rollercoaster of giggles, minor frustrations, and endless rehearsals. Now, the big day had finally arrived.Stefani shifted in her seat, excitement bubbling in her chest as she watched the children backstage. "I can't believe our babies are up there," she whispered to Jacob, her voice filled with awe. "It feels like just yesterday they were learning to walk."Jacob smiled, squeezi

The gentle breeze rolled off the sea, carrying with it the salty freshness of the ocean. The sun hung low on the horizon, casting a golden glow over the pristine sands of the island they had just arrived on. It felt surreal to Stefani—the beauty of the place, the laughter of her children echoing in the air as Ethan and Elara chased each other down the shore. This island was nothing like anywhere they had been before, and for the first time in a long while, Stefani felt the worries of everyday life slip away.Jacob stood beside her, his eyes locked on the twins with a soft smile tugging at his lips. “It’s beautiful here, isn’t it?” he asked, his voice warm.Stefani nodded, her fingers lacing through his as she leaned into him. “It’s perfect,” she whispered. “I can’t believe we’re actually here. No work, no stress—just us.”He glanced down at her, something unreadable in his expression. “That’s exactly what I wanted, Stef. Just us. We’ve been through a lot, and I thought we could use so
