Chapter 7

작가: Little Shadow
For the next few days, I had my lawyer officially petition for a divorce from Yvonne and submitted all the evidence of her extramarital affair. At the same time, I'd petitioned the court for a division of marital assets.

Yvonne was caught off-guard by the court notice. She was busy handling the company's crisis and the character-assassinating rumors about her. Now, she had one more thing to deal with—our upcoming divorce.

She tried to call me, only to discover that I'd blocked her number and s

  • My Amnesia Is Fake, but Their Lies Are Real   Chapter 9

    Lucas trailed into the conference room after me. He handed me a glass of water and peered at me worriedly. "Are you… okay?"Accepting the glass, I took a gulp of water and nodded. "I'm fine. I feel a lot calmer than I expected."Indeed, the feeling I had was one of calm.I thought my heart would twist painfully if I ever saw Yvonne and Anna again, or at least be overwhelmed with emotions. But when the confrontation finally happened, I realized my heart had frozen over like a lake in winter.They no longer had any hold over my heart.I thought that chapter had finally closed, but a few days later, another unwanted visitor showed up at my studio.It was Dad.He looked even more haggard than Yvonne did. Most of his hair had turned gray, and his face was full of lines. It was as if he'd aged ten years in the span of one.Lucas led him into my office, and tears sprang from his eyes the moment he saw me. He wanted to embrace me, but I stepped aside and dodged him.His hands hung awk

    The next day, Yvonne tracked me down to my workshop with Anna in tow.I happened to be in a meeting with clients that day when my assistant burst through the door nervously, whispering in my ear, "Sir, there's a woman who goes by the last name 'Stewart' who is here with a child. She insists on seeing you…"Everyone in the conference room turned their gaze on me.Keeping my expression neutral, I flashed my clients a smile. "Please excuse me."I left the conference room and immediately spotted Yvonne and Anna standing in the lobby.It had been a year since I last saw Yvonne. She'd lost a lot of weight, her eyes full of exhaustion and weariness. Gone was the confident, powerful woman who could command a room.Anna had gotten taller, too. She hid behind Yvonne timidly, her eyes rimmed red.Yvonne's eyes lit up at the sight of me. She hurried forward, her voice trembling a little. "I… I've finally found you, Damian."I didn't move toward her and eyed her with cool indifference. "Is

The only way she could reach me was through my lawyer, expressing her intention to settle and resolve things amicably.According to her lawyer, Yvonne was willing to give up on her fortune if it meant I'd withdraw the petition and make a public statement explaining this was a misunderstanding.I told my lawyer, "Alright. I might just consider her request if she spends the next three days and nights begging on her knees for forgiveness on the largest square in the city."Yvo

    Calvin's birthday party ended on a scandalous, messy note.The next day, the Stewarts and the Chapmans became the laughingstock of the city, as did Calvin's nest-stealing antics. Yvonne's company suffered a steep drop in stock price, with many of her collaborators terminating contracts left and right.The Chapman family's business suffered equally.Meanwhile, I was sitting at the gleaming floor-to-ceiling windows of my studio abroad. I watched the video Lucas had sent me while leisurely sipping coffee.In the video, the banquet hall was a mess after the guests left. Calvin and Yvonne were locked in a heated argument."Why didn't you tell me that Damian hadn't lost his memories, Yvonne? You said you had everything under your control!" Calvin cried hysterically."How would I know he hadn't lost his memories?" Yvonne stormed up to Calvin, grabbing him by the shoulders and shaking him roughly. "What's the point of hashing things out now?"My reputation's ruined! The company's ruined

    On Calvin's birthday, Dad threw him a huge party in the banquet hall of the most luxurious hotel in the city. Yvonne splurged on the event and invited practically every socialite and elite in the city.Calvin showed up in a bespoke tailored suit, entering the hall with Yvonne on his arm as the crowd wished him. Dad was beaming beside them, looking like a proud, happy parent.The three of them were the portrait of a happy family, the object of everyone's envy.I, on the other hand, had gotten on a plane three days ago and headed abroad.I'd timed everything perfectly. The surprise would unfold when the party reached its peak, and the emcee invited Yvonne to give a heartfelt speech on stage. The gift I'd prepared would have already arrived.I texted Lucas' friend stationed back home. "Let's get it started."Inside the banquet hall, Yvonne held a microphone to her mouth as she stared at Calvin indulgently. "Calvin, you've been a light in everyone's life since you were a kid, a sunbe

    Calvin distracted Yvonne with his sudden dizzy spell. Glaring over her shoulder, she snapped at me, "Are you happy now?"After that, the entire family made a fuss about getting Calvin to the hospital. Before they left, Gideon even turned around to snarl at me, "You're a walking jinx!"I stood still until my legs grew numb, and only then did I head into the storeroom. Physically and mentally exhausted, I collapsed in the narrow bed and fell into a deep slumber.I had no idea how long I'd been asleep, only that I was woken up by a rough dragging sensation. Yvonne looked feral with her bloodshot eyes as she yanked me out of bed."How could you be so cruel, Damian?" she growled without rhyme or reason before I snapped out of my grogginess. "You knew Calvin was severely allergic to peanuts, yet you gave him a peanut butter cake on purpose! You were trying to kill him out of sheer spite!"I froze. Peanut butter cake? When did I ever give him that?I sputtered incredulously. "Do I look
