INICIAR SESIÓNMackenzie Lister, my germaphobe wife, refuses to let any man besides me touch her. She stays a full arm's length away even when posing for photos with investors. It stays that way until the day of my birthday, when Colin Sumner, her assistant, suddenly posts a photo on his social media. In the photo, Mackenzie lets Colin hold her around the waist from behind. "I finally got to meet the role model I grew up looking up to! I have to keep pushing forward and chase my dreams!" I leave a comment on the post. "You two are an item now?" Mackenzie calls me. "He has always looked up to me, that's all. Why do you always have to twist things around? You'd better not make a fool of yourself and delete that comment this instant!" Additionally, my colleagues also blame me for meddling too much in other people's business. Colin immediately posts an update. "I've learned my first lesson from my role model—don't waste your time arguing with petty people." I look at my social media feed, which is getting spammed with comments, and place a single phone call. The next day, every investment in Mackenzie's company is withdrawn.
Ver másMackenzie eventually signed the divorce agreement. She knew that Scarlett was right about the whole thing—any further delay meant taking this to court. She would be stripped of every single dime the moment I brought out the evidence of her cheating. She had to safeguard her own interest, so she had no choice but to sign it, regardless of how unwilling she was.She looked at me with tears in her eyes on the day we finalized the divorce. "Do you really not want me anymore, Thomas?"I couldn't help but roll my eyes at her. "You should drop the act now, Mackenzie. Scarlett is literally sitting in the car right there, waiting for me, so please stop deluding yourself." Leaving her to stare at me with that hurt expression, I hopped into the car and took off, completely disappearing from her sight.…Mackenzie showed up uninvited on the day Scarlett and I got married. She nervously passed me the wedding gift while seated among the guests. She then said, "I'm all on my own now. If y
Mackenzie was dead set against divorcing me, so she actually dragged her parents all the way over from her hometown, which was thousands of miles away.I saw the three of them sitting imposingly on the couch the moment I stepped through the door, clearly waiting to chew me out.Mackenzie's father immediately started blaming me. "I believed you were an honest person, which was why I allowed my daughter to marry you, Thomas. I never expected that just a few years later, you would cheat on her. I clearly misjudged you."Mackenzie just sat there putting on a show with her tears, refusing to pay any attention to me.They were hoping to catch me feeling guilty, but I calmly took out my phone and said, "You're trespassing on private property. I can report this to the police at any time."Their expressions instantly hardened, clearly not expecting me to treat them so coldly.Mackenzie's mother broke her silence, visibly agitated. "H-How can you say that? We're in Mackenzie's house! How c
That evening, Mackenzie arrived at my place in an almost frantic state. Scarlett was picking out stuff for the wedding when Mackenzie frantically pushed her away and charged up to confront me. "How can you do this to me, Thomas? We haven't even gotten divorced!"Scarlett offered a faint, mocking smile. "You two aren't exactly a married couple anymore. You're already in the middle of a divorce. You should just sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible. If the matter goes to court and evidence of your affair is presented, you may lose your claim to everything.""Shut up! You're the bitch who ruined everything for me!" Mackenzie pinned the blame for our ruined marriage completely onto Scarlett. She let out a hysterical shriek as she charged straight at Scarlett.I reacted immediately and kicked her away. "Who allowed you to lay a hand on my wife?"Mackenzie crashed hard against the wall behind her and collapsed onto the floor. She looked up at me in disbelief and said, "You a
Mackenzie went off the grid for over two weeks just to show me the gravity of my mistake. She had at least kept her social media updated before, so I always knew what she was doing. But this time, even her best friends didn't know her whereabouts.I knew she was giving me the cold shoulder to get me to back down and apologize, but without her around, the only things I felt were a long-lost freedom and peace.Just when I thought this quiet streak would keep going, I walked through the door after work one day and found Mackenzie sprawled out on the couch. She barely cast a glance my way, then pointed to the fruit sitting on the table. "Go wash an apple for me," she ordered.I smiled faintly and said, "Have you lost your mind? We've got nothing to say to each other unless it's about the divorce."Mackenzie clearly hadn't expected my attitude to remain so unyielding after all this time. She bolted upright from the couch, her expression instantly hardening. "Haven't you had enough
