When my husband, Jared Hunt, receives a promotion that requires him to travel to Belmont, a big city, he submits a list of family members who will be traveling with him to the organization. He has submitted two names; the first one being our son, Jackson Hunt, and the second being a knowledgeable young woman, Sabrina Hayes. She's a friend who has traveled to the village with him in the first place. Life in the village is difficult. There's no way Jared will let Jackson suffer in the village. As for Sabrina, he has already given her his word to take her back to Belmont a long time ago. But when it comes to me, his actual wife, he thinks I should be gracious and offer the opportunity of traveling to Belmont to others. "It's completely useless for a country bumpkin like you to go to Belmont. Sabrina is very knowledgeable, so she's a more suitable candidate. Jackson and I will come back for you when an opportunity comes up in the future." As I listen to Jared's perfunctory explanation, I can feel my heart breaking. But what Jared doesn't know is that I'm not a country bumpkin despite having lived in the village longer than him. The truth is, I'm the talent that Belmont wants the most. The promotion that Jared cherishes the most is actually something that I don't want.

A week later, the press conference was held as scheduled. I stood on the stage, facing the reporters below and Jared, who looked like a petty villain finally tasting success. I spoke calmly, "Everything that Mr. Hunt accused me of is true."My admission sent shockwaves through the room.The reporters swarmed like hawks on prey, snapping photos as if there were no limit to their film."But…" I continued, and the next second, Jared's smug smile froze on his face."While these things are true, the person who committed the violence was not me—it was Jared who did it to me," I said.I held up the Belmont accompanying family list he had submitted, along with timestamps showing when Owen filed my application and purchased my ticket. Anyone looking closely could see that he had filed his list well before my ticket purchase, back when we were still married, and had swapped my name for Sabrina's.In a rage, Jared made a dash for the stage, but the security I had stationed there in advanc

My words left Jared frozen on the spot. He could no longer keep up the polite facade, and rage immediately took over. "Kylie! Have I been too lenient with you? How dare you talk about divorcing me!"Jared grabbed my collar and raised his hand to strike me.I was no longer the weak Kylie who had once been powerless to resist. I didn't know where the strength came from, but I kicked him hard and grabbed the display stand nearby, smashing it down on his head.Jared released my collar and clutched his forehead, screaming in pain as blood slowly seeped through his fingers. "You bitch! Kylie, how dare you hit me…"The instant I saw blood, fear rushed over me. I worried I had seriously hurt him and would be forced to take care of him for the rest of my life. Then, he started cursing at full volume, and I knew he was fine.Owen had been looking for me for a long time. He had only turned away to chat with someone, and I was gone. When he found us, he saw Jared clutching his head and stag

I could only feel embarrassed for Jared and turned to walk away.Sabrina couldn't stand it either. She ran over and grabbed him. "Jared, Kylie's already gone. She doesn't care about you at all. Otherwise, why wouldn't she have told you she's Professor Summer? It's not like she wanted to hide it."For the first time, Jared lost his patience with her and snapped, "Step aside! She's my wife. How could she not care about me?"He stared at me as I walked away. "Kylie, I know it was my mistake not putting your name on the Belmont guest list, but that was all Sabrina's idea! She said you're used to the countryside and might not adjust well to life in Belmont. I weighed everything and decided not to bring you. "But look—you came anyway. The three of us can be together again. Jackson has been missing you so much. He keeps writing you letters."Jared was trying to guilt me with family ties, shifting all the blame onto Sabrina. Clearly, Sabrina wasn't someone easy to push around if she coul

My laugh drew an immediate scowl from Jared. He frowned and barked, "What are you laughing at? Are you mocking Professor Summer? You're not even in her league!"Sabrina immediately joined the scolding, speaking loudly as though the entire room needed to hear. "How dare you disrespect Professor Summer! She's a leading authority in our industry and an inspiration to the nation!"Their scolding immediately drew the attention of nearby attendees, most of whom had no idea what was going on. Whispers of disapproval spread quickly, and a few even suggested I be removed.I didn't flinch.Just as Jared lunged toward me, a symposium staffer came sprinting over, shouting, "Professor Summer! Why are you still here? The symposium is about to begin, and everyone is waiting for your opening speech!"Jared froze mid-grab. His eyes widened in shock, and he staggered back a few steps."Professor Summer?"He laughed awkwardly, shaking his head. "No, that's impossible. You must have the wrong perso

Jared blinked, thinking his eyes were deceiving him when he saw me at the train station. He knew me well enough to expect a scene the moment he learned he was buying tickets to Belmont.When the woman who looked like me stepped onto the train without a single glance back, he realized it wasn't me.

For the next few days, we ignored each other completely, treating each other with polite distance. One morning, I stayed in my room, sorting through my old research notes.Since marriage, I had drifted back into family life, leaving my research behind and dedicating myself to my husband and son.

Jared and Jackson started giving me the cold shoulder. In the past, I would have immediately blamed myself, humbled myself, and tried to win them back. But now, I refused to play along. I hadn't done anything wrong. They were only hoping their cold attitude would make me give in.Eventually, Jackso
