LOGINOn the eve of my wedding, my wife, Sharon Moonstone, drugged me and knocked me unconscious. She let her first love, Aaron Miller, take my place as the groom, standing beside her as they held the wedding that was supposed to belong to both of us. By the time I finally found them, they had already gone into the bridal suite and consummated their marriage. When I demanded answers, Sharon did not show a trace of guilt. "You live off me. You'd better behave. Make a scene, and we'll divorce." My heart went cold. I handed her the divorce papers, but she barely looked at them. "Looks like you've improved," she said lightly. "At least you know a performance should be convincing from start to finish."

Somehow, she got hold of my address and began sending me anonymous packages every day.Inside the boxes were knives.My skin crawled.For three days in a row, I received knives.At the same time, a message came in from an unfamiliar number. It was her demanding to see me. Otherwise, there was no guarantee what would be sent next.Fear flooded me. I reported it to the police without hesitation.To cooperate with the investigation, I still went to meet her. She had lost a frightening amount of weight, yet her clothes were neat. When she looked at me, her gaze was soft.The way she stared made my skin prickle. I stopped two steps away from her."Lucas, is there really no chance for us?"I did not answer.She gave a bitter smile. "I understand. You don’t want to be with me anymore."In the next instant, she lunged at me with a metal skewer in her hand. Her face was twisted with rage. "Then you don’t need to live!"Thankfully, I was prepared. I shifted sligh
I had no intention of getting caught up in the excitement, but the excitement found me anyway.The bride’s bouquet landed squarely in my hands.Cheers erupted all around. Evan was grinning the widest of all."Bro, you caught the bouquet. Hurry up and give it to your wife! Careful, or you’ll be kneeling on a washboard when you get home!"I was just about to explain that there was no wife when a hand gently looped around my arm.It was Sharon. She tilted her head up at me, eyes full of expectation.I calmly pulled my arm free and laughed it off. "What wife?"Her eyes instantly grew wet, as if she had suffered a great injustice.Here we go again.I was irritated, but I could not show it.Evan kept fanning the flames. "Your wife’s crying! Bro, if you don’t comfort her now, you’ll be sleeping on the floor tonight!"Laughter exploded around us. My face burned, not from embarrassment, but from anger. He knew perfectly well that we were divorced, yet he was still leading the teasing
Sharon brushed past her mother’s attempts to stop her and quickly skimmed through the report. Her face drained of color. Her eyes widened."Mom… you really—this can’t be true!"Mrs. Moonstone’s face turned ashen. She lowered her head, clearly giving up on any further resistance.However, Sharon still refused to accept the truth. She glared at me and growled, "You lied to me!"I smiled faintly. "Don’t you think your mother treats Emily better than she treats you?"Sharon kept repeating that it was impossible, unwilling to face reality.Mr. Moonstone snapped. He grabbed anything he could reach and hurled it at his wife, his eyes vicious, as if he wanted to kill her.He kept muttering, "You were still thinking about him! You even had his child!"Mrs. Moonstone was struck until her head split open and blood flowed. Whatever guilt she once had about cheating vanished completely. She rushed forward and slapped her enraged husband twice."So what if I cheated on you? Caleb stayed loy
"Lucas, that’s bullshit!" She screamed herself hoarse, eyes full of grievance, as if she were the real victim. "I’ve humbled myself this much just to win you back. What’s wrong with us getting back together?"Is it really that hard to love me again? I already admitted I was wrong. What more do you want from me? Do I have to die before you’ll believe my love?"Her love?What a joke.Ever since she offended Mr. Shaw, her company had been under pressure from all sides. It was on the verge of collapse. Why she came looking for me now was obvious.I spoke calmly, "You didn’t come to me out of love. Your company is about to go under, and you need someone to clean up the mess. Stop dressing it up as something noble."She was then taken away.I thought that after spending a few days behind bars, she might rein herself in a little.I was wrong. She became even more unhinged. She actually kidnapped my niece, Lily Reed, and sent me a threatening message. "Lucas, my parents want to see you
