My Life Is One Big Scam, Starting with My Wife Chapter 8
I didn't look back as I walked out, leaving Melody's heart-wrenching screams to echo in the hallway behind me. This time, armed with ironclad evidence, we won the lawsuit in court, clearing our housekeeper's name once and for all. Melody and Benjamin were publicly humiliated, and everyone finally learned the truth about what had happened years ago.I didn't care about them after that.Years later, I sat in a chair in the villa's garden, watching Celia race bikes with our children across the sprawling lawn. The sunlight was warm against my skin; the moment was pure bliss. An old friend came to visit that day, and we chatted happily for hours. Inevitably, the conversation drifted back to Melody.Once our housekeeper's name was cleared, the citizens of Zephyron shifted all their anger onto Melody and Benjamin. The consequences were brutal. Benjamin was kidnapped one night by those he had swindled, and his tendons were severed. The gang tortured him for five days and dumped him in

"We've received the evidence provided by Ms. Gordon and have already arranged for a full reinvestigation."Benjamin's face paled instantly, though he still shamelessly went forward. "Mr. Muller, surely you found evidence that Ivan was involved too? Go ahead and arrest him already! This kind of—"Before he could finish his sentence, Henry's hand swung out, slapping him hard across the face. "You worthless bastard!" Henry barked. "Don't think for a second we can't trace things back to you. And Ms. Hutton, why don't you speak up? I believe we've given you more than enough respect thus far."Melody stammered, her eyes darting around the room in a panic. "H-He's just my secretary. What do you mean…"I shook my head and pulled out a stack of photos from the file. "Melody, why are you still defending this fraud? Take a good look at these. Do you really think Benjamin loves you? He's been systematically seeing other women behind your back!"I continued, "He's a regular at every high-end

"No wonder you've been making such a fuss at home every day! It turns out you had a mistress waiting in the wings! I've never seen a man as shameless as you!"Rose used that same shrill, condescending tone she had used to humiliate me for years. I ignored her. Turning to the clerk, I took my copy of the divorce certificate and tossed Melody's copy onto the counter in front of her before walking away. But Melody suddenly lunged forward and grabbed my arm. "Did you really leave me for her? For that bitch?"I yanked my hand free, my voice cold. "You've insulted me enough. Now you're attacking her too? You've completely lost any sense of decency.”Celia stepped forward from behind me. "Don't think I don't know exactly what shady things you've done to get where you are."At the sight of Celia's serious expression, my in-laws' bravado vanished. They looked down, the flicker of panic evident in their eyes. Before she could continue, a wave of journalists flooded the room.Benjamin

Ten minutes later, a black Maybach pulled up in front of me.A woman stepped out, looking elegant and striking. The moment she saw me, she ran over in her heels and threw her arms around me, pressing herself against my chest."Ivan! Now that you're divorced, and I'm still single, let's finally be together!" Before I could even respond, she pulled me into the car."I liked you so much back then. If you had married me, things would've been perfect. Who knew you'd have such terrible judgment? Picking Melody instead."I shook my head and sighed, saying nothing.Celia was the eldest daughter of the Gordon family. Back then, both our families were among the most powerful in Zephyron, so we had known each other since childhood. As kids, she used to insist she would marry me, but I had always dismissed it as a childish whimsy. Then I met Melody.At the time, Melody was just a junior employee. She was constantly at my side, eager to learn, asking for guidance on every little thing. I

After saying that, Benjamin turned to leave, but Melody grabbed him."It's not your—"Lily ran over and clung to him. "Mr. Carter, don't go! If you're leaving, take me with you."He crouched down and hugged her. As he did, a sly, triumphant look flashed in his eyes. He leaned in and whispered into Lily's ear, loud enough for only me to hear. "Thanks for playing along, Lily. This way, your mom won't be able to bear losing you. She'll definitely leave that freeloader and come find us."Every word landed clearly in my ears. I was done watching his act, so I turned and headed straight for the door. But Benjamin wasn't finished. He lunged forward and grabbed my arm. "Mr. Gage, please don't go! I'll write my resignation letter right now. Please, take good care of Ms. Hutton."He was still playing the martyr. It made my skin crawl. I shook his hand off immediately."Benjamin, stop it. Trying to act like the saintly victim just makes you look like a desperate puppy. Knock it off!" He

Benjamin picked up his phone and began typing a reply.A second later, Lily's smartwatch buzzed.For the next minute, it continued—her watch and his phone vibrating in a relentless back-and-forth rhythm. The two of them stared at their screens, faint smiles playing on their lips. Every so often, they'd sneak a glance in my direction.I froze for a moment, then realized what was happening—they were texting each other.I couldn't take it anymore and snatched the watch from Lily's wrist. I skimmed the messages, my heart sinking with every word. It was exactly as I feared. Lily, Melody, and Benjamin had a group chat titled "Our Happy Family". Inside, Lily was unleashing a torrent of vitriol against me. "Why do I have a dad like this?""He'd have more dignity if he just went out and begged.""If he would just die, then Mr. Carter could finally be my dad!"Meanwhile, Benjamin played the role of the "perfect father" in the chat. "Lily, don't say such hurtful things, okay?""Li
