Hand Over My Salary? Enjoy the Divorce Instead Chapter 9
The police officers had had enough. They slapped a pair of cold handcuffs on Patricia too.Only then did Vivian truly panic. She dropped to her knees in front of me, tears streaming down her face, but it didn't feel genuine at all."Zane, honey, I'm so sorry! Please, talk to the police for me! Don't let them take me!" she begged desperately."I'll get my year-end bonus in a month. If this affects my attendance, it won't be worth it! How about this? If you help me, I'll give you ten thousand dollars from my bonus! No, half! I'll share half with you, okay?"What a bizarre thing to say.I walked up to Vivian and looked her up and down. "Who do you think you are, Vivian? This time, I'm not only divorcing you, but I'm also taking back the share of the savings that rightfully belongs to me."Patricia couldn't handle it. Her eyes rolled back, and she fainted on the spot. Vivian was then dragged into the police car.I went back to the hotel, changed into a clean set of clothes, and requ

I didn't reply to Vivian. Instead, I went into a mall, bought myself some decent clothes, and tried that restaurant everyone said had amazing service.I also didn't return to the so-called home where I was supposed to pay rent. Instead, I got a hotel room near my office and stayed there for the time being.Later, I picked up my phone and called Vivian, telling her we would file for divorce on Monday. She snorted coldly. "Without me, you're nothing, Zane.""I told you, if you want a divorce, pay back everything you owe me first," Vivian taunted, sounding as arrogant as ever."See you in court, then.""You've really got some nerve, haven't you? Well, let's see how long you can hold out. I'll drag this out until you break."Before I could respond, she hung up. The line went dead, the dial tone buzzing in my ears.Strangely, I felt a sense of peace. I told myself I would get out of this marriage and leave her for good, no matter what it took.The next day, I prepared to file for di
Hand Over My Salary? Enjoy the Divorce Instead Chapter 7
The word "divorce" stunned Vivian. She grabbed my wrist and asked, "All this just because I asked you to hand over your salary? Are you even a man?""No, I'm not," I answered flatly.I didn't feel like arguing anymore, so I slammed the door as I left. This time, she followed me out.In public, Vivian shouted at me without a care about who was watching. "Did you pay a single penny when I bought the house? When we renovated it, did you contribute anything?"We've been together since we were in school, and now, you're ignoring my family's situation and acting like money grows on trees! If you want a divorce, fine. But first, pay me rent for all these years you've been living here!"She kept shouting louder, completely disregarding how I felt. A crowd quickly gathered, and people started whispering."What's with that man? He can't even pay for the house or the renovation. He's basically freeloading.""That's a man who doesn't care about his wife at all.""She should've divorced him
Hand Over My Salary? Enjoy the Divorce Instead Chapter 6
I chortled.All these years of saving, not eating well, and not even dressing like a working adult… What exactly had I been struggling for?While I was still lost in that thought, Vivian came back. I grabbed her phone before she could and pointed at the number on the screen. "You earn this much, so why are you still squeezing me dry?"She gritted her teeth and reached out to snatch her phone back. I laughed coldly. "I've been with you since we were young, struggling and building everything together, and this is how you treat me?"Vivian looked annoyed now. "How have I treated you exactly? I only asked you to hand over your salary for me to manage—that's it. Suddenly, I'm mistreating you?""Aren't you, though?" I shot back. "Other women are buying their husbands watches. You're standing here arguing with me over discounted fruit. They take their husbands to football games. You're debating with me over whether we should install broadband…"The more I spoke, the more worked up I got
Hand Over My Salary? Enjoy the Divorce Instead Chapter 5
Not even five minutes after I left, Vivian started calling me nonstop. I hung up once, and she called again. She persistently dialed as if it were a real emergency.My phone was down to 5% battery. In the end, I had no choice but to pick up."Where are you?" she asked furiously. Before I could answer, she cut in again. "I told you to transfer your salary within a minute. Why didn't you do it?"It was late at night. One would think her first question would be whether I was safe or where I was. Instead, all she cared about was the money. I hadn't realized how obsessed she was with it until then.I didn't waste any more words on her and hung up. After finding a chain hotel, I checked in. The moment I lay down, Vivian called again. This time, I tossed the phone aside and let it ring until the battery finally died.All night, my mind kept replaying everything she had ever said.She once talked about traveling around the country with me, yet we never even planned a single trip. She onc
Hand Over My Salary? Enjoy the Divorce Instead Chapter 4
I didn't touch dinner that night.Vivian came over and started lecturing me again, going through the same old logic about saving while we were young, only spending on what was necessary at the grocery store, and cutting out everything else.I'd had enough. I shut my eyes, rose to my feet, and stormed straight into the bathroom. That was when my salary hit my account.For the first time, I didn't transfer it to her immediately. I simply stared at the number on the screen. That money was enough for a decent set of clothes, a proper backpack, and even a solid gaming setup if I wanted it.Because I had been handing all my money over to Vivian every month, I was still wearing the same clothes I had worn back in school—ones that hadn't completely worn out yet.My backpack was a cheap canvas one worth barely 20 dollars. Even my so-called entertainment was just sitting at home doing nothing.A sudden sense of emptiness hit me. I started to wonder what the point of all these years of work
