Chapter 6

Author: Jade Brew
Just when I thought I could finally relax a little, I received an urgent call from the hospital.

The white lighting of the hospital corridors was so bright that it almost hurt to look at.

I stared at my older brother, Rowan Quinton, as he lay in bed on an IV drip. A pang of pain struck me, and it felt like my heart was being torn to shreds.

Other than Mom, Rowan was the only person in this world who treated me with utmost sincerity. He ran a small traditional jewelry workshop and crafted the

  • Ex-Wife's Revenge: I Marry My Best Friend   Chapter 8

    Capping the pen, I stood up and gazed down my nose at Timothy."You claim to be just best friends with Selina, yet you two did such despicable things together. Have you no shame?"Timothy's hands shook violently as tears splashed onto the divorce agreement, smearing the words."Ten years… We were together for ten years. Are you really able to forget all that?"I turned and headed for the door. Sunlight spilled in from the windows, bathing me in a bright glow."You were the one who turned our relationship into trash first. In that case, trash should be thrown away."With that, I pushed the door open and left.Outside, Calvin was leaning against his car, waiting for me with a bouquet of sunflowers in his arms.Upon seeing me come out, he straightened and held a hand out to me."Is it over?"I placed my hand into his, feeling how warm and strong it was."Yeah, it's over. But it's also the beginning of something else."…Half a year later, Yance Corporation officially announce

    Not long after, we launched our first jewelry series, named "Radiant Legacy".We set up a livestream in our studio to promote the launch. Rowan, though he still hadn't yet recovered, busied himself in the back with packaging and sending out the orders.As for Calvin, he used his extensive network of connections and even managed to get a few A-list celebrities to come and endorse the event.This was my first time having to explain the history of jewelry to a camera, so I was rather nervous. My mind went blank, and I couldn't seem to remember what to say.The number of people entering the livestream kept growing, and with my prolonged silence, some began to voice their doubts and confusion.Suddenly, an arm appeared between me and the camera. From the fair complexion and slenderness, I could tell that it was Calvin.He reached out to pluck the signature feathered brooch from the table and pinned it to the lapels of his own suit.He asked, "Does it look good?"Then his face appe

    Just when I thought I could finally relax a little, I received an urgent call from the hospital.The white lighting of the hospital corridors was so bright that it almost hurt to look at.I stared at my older brother, Rowan Quinton, as he lay in bed on an IV drip. A pang of pain struck me, and it felt like my heart was being torn to shreds.Other than Mom, Rowan was the only person in this world who treated me with utmost sincerity. He ran a small traditional jewelry workshop and crafted the most intricate pieces, yet he lacked any business management skills.In my last life, Timothy, in a bid to force me into compliance, destroyed any prospects Rowan had. This caused Rowan to go into a depression, and soon after his workshop closed down, he passed away as well.This time around, history was repeating itself. All material supplies to his workshop had been cut off, and his clients would rather pay the penalty fee of breaking their contracts than continue them. Besides that, the t

    Yance Corporation's crisis was a lot more serious than anyone had expected. Its stock prices continually plummeted, crashing for three days straight.All of Selina's endorsement deals were canceled, and rumors had it that she was hiding in her villa, not even daring to order any food deliveries for fear of being attacked.As for Timothy, he was too busy putting out fires everywhere that he had no energy or time to spare on pestering me. This gave me some much-needed breathing room.Business was quiet in the first week of Radiant's opening.That was until Calvin brought someone along with him.It was none other than Marilyn Bose, a celebrity actress who had won numerous awards. A pair of sunglasses was perched on her nose, and she carried a redwood box.She opened the box to reveal a broken emerald necklace, which she said was an antique heirloom passed down through generations since the late 19th century. The emerald had been mined from a region well-known for producing emerald

    The camera swiftly panned over to the speaker, revealing that it was an elderly woman in a simple evening gown. Despite the plain attire, she carried herself in a manner that set her apart from others.When she stood up, everyone immediately recognized her as Madam Langdon.The appearance of the leading authority in the international jewelry appraisal industry caused the entire venue to instantly fall silent.The auctioneer asked respectfully, "Madam Langdon, is there anything you would like to share?"Madam Langdon didn't look at him, her sharp gaze fixed on the dazzling set of jewelry on display."Before you strike that gavel, may I get a closer look at the jewelry?"No one had the guts to refuse her request, so a staff member immediately took the centerpiece—the necklace—and carefully presented it to her.Countless cameras instantly swiveled over to focus on her and the necklace in her hands.Madam Langdon took out a professional magnifying glass from her purse and leaned in

    I had only just stepped out the front door when my phone rang with a call from Emma Kinsley, my mother-in-law.I answered my phone, but before I could say anything, Emma's shrill voice was already screaming over the line."Rosalie Quinton, you sure have some nerve! How dare you cause a scene at your wedding anniversary party! You've thoroughly humiliated the Yance family! "I'm warning you, you'd better immediately apologize to Selina, then get the hell back here and admit your mistakes to Tim! The Yance family refuses to acknowledge a shameless, promiscuous woman like you as our daughter-in-law!"I couldn't help but feel rather amused at how self-righteously she was lecturing me.Once she had exhausted herself from scolding me and paused to catch her breath, I finally spoke, my tone indifferent."Are you done? Timothy and I are no longer together."Emma was momentarily shocked into silence, but then she exploded into even louder shrieking."You dare? Rosalie Quinton, who do yo

    The engine of a Maybach purred silently in the night.Inside the car, it was so quiet that only the faint sound of the air conditioning could be heard.Calvin didn't immediately start driving. Instead, he cocked his head to the side to level me with an intent look."My dear 'bestie', I certainly

    With a loud shattering sound, my husband, Timothy Yance, crushed the wine glass he was holding. The crimson liquid inside splattered onto his expensive tailored suit, along with the glass shards, leaving him looking quite the mess.A dead silence descended upon the entire hall as everyone's attenti
