When Lily saw that Wayne had lost his job and also no longer had a house, she filed for divorce.

“Wayne, I have been with you all these years, and I have never had a single good day. Now, you don’t even have a job. How are we supposed to live?”

    After Wayne was sentenced, Lily brought Aiden back and abandoned him with Sloane.But Sloane had already been arrested by then. Aiden had no one to care for him. The community office could only contact me to ask that I take Aiden in.“Alvin, Aiden is your grandson after all. You should take him back. He’s still young. He can’t be left without a legal guardian.”I shook my head.“He’s not my grandson. He stopped being my grandson the moment he pushed me out that window.”In the end, the community had no choice. They sent Aiden to an orphanage.Later, I heard from Zack that Aiden was very withdrawn in the orphanage. He did not play with the other children and rarely spoke. He was completely unlike the arrogant and unruly child he had been when he was abroad.I never went to visit him.It was not because I hated him. I simply felt there was no need.His life was his own to walk, just like his father and his grandmother. They had all chosen their own paths.Sloane was only a mino

    After dealing with Sloane, my next target was Wallace.Abraham told me that all these years abroad, Wallace had not done anything legitimate. He had lived off the money he had swindled from Sloane.After returning, he had not changed his ways. He secretly gambled and had racked up a large debt to loan sharks.I contacted Abraham and asked him to help find out which casino Wallace frequented.Abraham had a few comrades who worked at the police station. Within a few days, he had the information.Wallace often went to an underground casino on the outskirts of the city. He had recently owed the casino owner fifty thousand dollars and had been pressed for payment several times.Abraham asked, “Alvin, what do you want to do? Do you want me to just call the cops and have him picked up?”I shook my head.I asked Abraham to spread the news about Wallace’s gambling debt to the neighbors. I also had his comrade at the police station conduct a patrol at the underground casino.The goal wa

    I had no intention of letting matters go.I was not some pushover who could be bullied without consequence.They would pay for everything they owed me.I found out that Sloane, relying on the fact that she had been abroad, had opened a retirement community social club nearby.Classes started at 2 p.m. every afternoon. The attendees were mostly middle-aged women from the neighborhood.I reached out to my former comrade, Abraham.After being discharged from the military, he worked at the subdistrict office. He had many connections and access to information.Abraham asked, “Alvin, what do you want to do?“If this thing with Sloane gets blown up, it won’t look good for you either.”I was silent for a moment. Then I said, “It doesn’t matter. I just want her to know that the things she did back then don’t just disappear because she hid them.”Abraham sighed and nodded.“Alright. I’ll reach out to a few of the old neighbors. I’ll also give the building management a heads-up. They h

    Wayne was dumbfounded. When he saw a strange man moving items out of the house, he went to stop him.“Who are you? What gives you the right to touch our stuff?!”The buyer was stout and aggressive. He directly grabbed several people and pulled them out of the bedroom.“Your stuff? I bought this house three days ago. The paperwork is all in order. I’m the owner now. Grab your things and get out. Stop holding me up while I’m trying to clean this place.”Sloane was frustrated. She tugged at Wallace’s arm and shouted, “Wallace, say something to him! We’re the ones who own this house. What gives him the right to throw us out?”Wallace cleared his throat.“Sir, you need to do things by the book. When I was overseas—”“Don’t give me that overseas nonsense!” The buyer cut him off.“I paid for this house, so it’s mine. Either leave now, or I’m calling the cops and letting them deal with you for trespassing.”When Wayne called, I was in the hospital room polishing my military medals fro

    We sat in silence until evening. When our bodies became sore from sitting too long, we finally prepared to head home.Just then, my neighbor across the hall, Charlotte, hurried over.“Alvin, hurry and get back to your place! Someone’s moving stuff in. There are a ton of people.”I rushed back to find the door lock pried open and the front door wide.The group that had left at noon had returned. Bags and boxes were piled all over the living room.Sloane sat on the couch with Wallace. He held her hand while painting her nails.Nearby, Wayne and Lily were playing with Aiden.When Sloane saw me return, she spoke to me as if I were a housemaid. “I’m hungry. Go make me some pasta.”I laughed in exasperation. “Sure. Give me a second.”I turned and went into the kitchen.I poured soy sauce, vinegar, chili sauce, pepper powder, and everything else into a bowl. Then I carried it out.In the living room, Sloane and Wayne were criticizing me.Wayne said, “He has never done anything wit
