Chapter 7

Author: Madness Incarnate
I rejected her without even thinking about it.

"I already resigned, Serena. Find someone else."

"Elio, you've always been the one responsible for this chip, and you're the only one who can fix it!"

The urgency in Serena's voice didn't sound fake.

After thinking about it for a moment, I eventually agreed to go back and take a look.

When I returned to the company, several colleagues assumed I was coming back for good.

After learning that I was only there temporarily to help, many of them ope

    I deliberately acted like I didn't see her and wanted to avoid her, but she stood in my way directly."I've been waiting for you, Elio.""What do you want?"I raised my eyebrow."I've ended things with Hugo. We won't have any contact anymore, and I fired him too."As I reached for my car door, I replied casually, "What happens between you and Hugo has nothing to do with me."I brushed aside the hand Serena had placed in front of me.Suddenly, Hugo came rushing out from nowhere and grabbed Serena, trying to pull her away."Serena, you said you loved me the most in bed! You can't treat me like this! Won't you marry me?"Serena shoved him away as hard as she could."I already told you I won't meet you anymore! You're the reason why Elio divorced me! I don't love you, and I won't get married to you!"I had no interest in this ridiculous drama and simply drove away.Through the rearview mirror, I could still see Serena and Hugo struggling with each other in the parking lot.Aft

    The video showed Hugo publicly accusing me by name, claiming that I had stolen confidential project files from my former company before jumping to a competitor.He also accused me of having no professional ethics, calling me shameless and despicable for doing something so underhanded.The new chip technology had already attracted massive attention. As the lead developer, I quickly became the center of discussion. Before long, the video went viral.I skimmed through the comments for a while, reading through all sorts of opinions.In the end, I found it all completely tasteless and closed the app. Then, I immediately called the police without any hesitation.My new company also issued a public statement, saying that the relevant authorities were welcome to investigate and that no theft had occurred.I spent the entire night organizing evidence, and Serena's company also released an official statement.They stated that I resigned through regular procedures and that none of Hugo's a

    "No need," I rejected her again. "That place isn't my home anymore."The next day, I was working overtime on the project.At noon, Serena brought me an exquisitely packed lunchbox."It's all the dishes that you like. Eat it while it's hot," she urged.I took a look. It was a meal from the famous restaurant downstairs. During lunchtime, you would even need to make a reservation in advance to eat there.Serena used to love bringing Hugo there for meals.Without taking my eyes off the computer screen, I replied flatly, "The next time you go with Hugo, you don't need to bring food for me."A trace of awkwardness flashed across Serena's face before she hurriedly explained, "I went out to buy this for you during lunch. When I didn't see you at the cafeteria, I asked around in the project department and found out you were still busy working."Only then did I finally look directly at Serena."Well, then there's even less reason for you to go through the trouble. We have nothing to do

We've already signed contracts with our investors."I carefully checked the chip's program."Yeah, I can.""That's great! I knew I could count on you to fix this, Elio!" Serena seemed ecstatic.My face was exp

    The very next day, I moved into the studio apartment I had bought before marriage.It was the only refuge I had ever had from my family growing up.Back then, I thought Serena would finally give me a sense of belonging.Instead, she shattered all my hopes for what a home should be.I wasn't in a hurry to join the new company yet, since my divorce still hadn't been settled.I hadn't even finished unpacking when I heard knocking at the door.At first, I thought it was property management coming to reconnect the utilities. However, when I opened the door, I saw Serena standing there with my mother."Elio, why didn't you answer after I called you so many times? How could you ignore calls from your own mother?"I took one look at Serena. This woman brought my mother here on purpose."Come in."I stepped aside, and Serena helped my mother into the apartment.Serena looked around the small space before turning to me with a dark expression. "See, you can only live in a small apart

    I placed the divorce agreement I had prepared long ago onto her desk.Originally, I had planned to talk things through with Serena at home tonight, but now it seemed completely unnecessary."You want a divorce?"Serena looked as if she couldn't believe what she was hearing, that I would be the one bringing up a divorce."If you're unhappy with the division of assets, you can change those terms. The house is yours, and I'll give you 5% of the company's shares I own. All I want is five million."Serena knew that five million wasn't nearly enough for the value that I'd created for the company throughout the years, not even a fraction.But now, all I wanted was a speedy divorce."What gives you the right to ask for a divorce?! All I did was a small mistake!"I didn't know what gave her the call to write off infidelity as a small mistake."If you don't sign the divorce agreement, I'll take legal action.Hugo held Serena's hand, pointing at me and shouting, "She doesn't love you!
