Left at the Altar, Like I Wanted Chapter 10
Third-Person POVThe divorce proceedings went quickly. As Susie and Mason stepped out of the courthouse, the sun was shining brightly. Golden rays warmed them on an early winter's day.As they parted, Susie raised her head, her expression extremely conflicted. If only she hadn't let go of his hand at their wedding that day. She would still be Mason's wife—envied by all, living in a good home, driving an expensive car, and basking in the love and devotion he had once given her without reservation.But now, she had nothing. Her reputation was in ruins, and she could only skulk from place to place. One choice was all it had taken to make her life a living hell.…Mason's POV"Mason… i-if there's a next life, I swear I'll be faithful to you and you alone…" she sobbed out an empty, meaningless promise.I smiled and shook my head. "There's no need for that, Susie. I've had more than enough in this life. In the next, let's just make sure our paths never cross."With that, I didn't lin

Mason's POVThere was only one day left before the 30-day cooling-off period ended. At 11:00 pm, I had just finished working late and returned to my apartment building. I felt the biting wind of early winter against my face.In the shadows cast by a street light near the building entrance, a gaunt figure was curled up on the ground. She wore an old down jacket covered in dust and a pair of flat shoes so filthy that their original color was impossible to make out.At the sound of my footsteps, the woman suddenly lifted her head. It was Susie. It had only been a month since I last saw her, but she had become almost unrecognizable. Her cheekbones jutted sharply, and her once-radiant cheeks had sunken in, leaving her looking like a walking corpse.When she saw me, tears streamed down her face. With a thud, she dropped straight to her knees on the cold, hard concrete, surprising me. "Mason… I'm sorry…" Her voice was hoarse and barely recognizable, filled with despair and regret. "Je

Mason's POVAria froze for a moment, then instinctively narrowed her eyes to get a better look at the page. The instant she saw the words "Date of Abortion" and the operating surgeon's signature, her expression stiffened. "W-what is this?""Two years ago, I was sent to Glayden on a two-month business trip." I lowered my voice, but every word reached her ears with perfect clarity. "Your daughter was pregnant with Jeremy's child. She underwent a D&C procedure at a women's and children's hospital. And you must be the family member who signed the consent form for the procedure."Aria's face drained of color. Her lips trembled as she stared at me as though she had seen a ghost. "H-how did you…"The noisy crowd that had gathered in the lobby gradually fell silent. No one could make out the exact details of our conversation, but when they saw Aria's terrified expression, the mood shifted completely.I stepped forward and looked down at her. "Go ahead. Keep making a scene. The lobby's sur

Mason's POVEarly the next morning, a bombshell announcement began circulating like wildfire in several major industry group chats in the local area. The multinational company Susie worked for had officially announced her termination.The statement was worded in the usual formal corporate language, but every word was devastating. "Susie Smith is hereby dismissed for misconduct involving serious breaches of public morality, multiple civil and financial disputes, and public security cases, all of which have severely damaged the company's reputation."The wealthy, beautiful heiress who had returned from overseas and had been the center of attention at the company had become the laughingstock of the entire industry.At 2:00 pm, I was attending the company's quarterly risk management review meeting. A young receptionist knocked on the conference room door and hurried inside, looking flustered. "Mr. Montgomery, there's an elderly woman making a scene in the lobby downstairs. Security

Mason's POVThree days after leaving the courthouse, I returned to the new home Susie and I had shared, not to reminisce, but to move my things out.I hired a professional moving crew in the city. Four men arrived, working quickly and efficiently. I pointed at the things in each room and listed them one by one."I bought that 75-inch TV before the marriage. Take it. That high-end computer in the study is mine. Take it too. And take all of those bottles of liquor and red wine people gave us in the liquor cabinet."The movers immediately got to work, packing everything with practiced speed.Susie loved showing off our home on social media, calling it her little modern cream-toned haven. But she had probably forgotten that I was the one who had paid for every genuinely expensive appliance and piece of soft furnishing in the house.While clearing out the walk-in closet, one of the movers took a locked box from the top storage shelf. "Sir, is this also yours?" he asked.I looked at t

Mason's POVI continued driving at a steady pace. I said impassively, "Oh, that's rough, buddy.""Mason! How can you be so heartless?" Susie completely lost it on the other end of the line. "I'm your wife! We're legally married! Do you even understand what a marital debt is? You have to pay half the banquet bill!""Marital debt, you say?" I couldn't help but laugh. "Susie, if you're that clueless about the law, maybe you should learn a thing or two from TV. You ordered the extra 20 bottles of imported liquor and the premium seafood after I had already left. You and Jeremy were the ones who consumed them."Also, the 12-thousand-dollar suit he is wearing? You took the money from our joint account to buy it. That was a deliberate concealment and transfer of marital assets. I've already sued Jeremy for unjust enrichment. I'm demanding that he return every last dollar."There was dead silence on the other end of the line. I could only hear Susie's heavy, ragged breathing. She had proba
