Not the Right Fit Chapter 9
At the hospital, the doctor examined me and cleaned the wound.A blood test revealed traces of a mild sedative in my system. The police later confirmed that the same substance had been found in the food at my apartment.There was no denying it—when Sylvie lost control, she was terrifying.The cut on my face wasn't long, but it was deep.As the doctor applied medication, he spoke with a frown."You need to be careful with this. Your facial nerves were already compromised from your previous injury. You're lucky the wound didn't go deeper. If it had… not even the best plastic surgeon could have helped you."Sylvie, sitting nearby for questioning, suddenly panicked.She grabbed the doctor's sleeve, pleading, "Please—please save him. I don't care how much it costs, I'll pay anything!"Her outburst left everyone stunned.A nurse rushed to calm her down.I stared at her helpless expression, and to my own surprise, I felt a tightness in my chest.The last time I'd been in a hospital
Not the Right Fit Chapter 8
At that moment, Sylvie finally understood.I wasn't bluffing when I said I wanted a divorce. I never had been.She broke down all at once, burying her face in her hands and sobbing uncontrollably. I simply stood there, watching her without emotion.From a distance, Tyler noticed something was wrong and hurried over."Sylvie, are you okay?" He reached out to wipe her tears, but she slapped his hand away."Don't touch me! Stay away from me!" she shouted. "This is between me and my husband—it has nothing to do with you!"Tyler's face turned pale. Embarrassed, he pulled his hand back.Leila approached, concerned. I shook my head, signaling I was fine, and turned to leave. But just then, Sylvie grabbed Leila's wrist.Sylvie's eyes were bloodshot as she stared at me. "Have you fallen for her? Is that why you insist on divorcing me—why you won't give me even the slightest chance?"Smack!It was the first time I'd ever hit Sylvie.Her words were vile. Her stubbornness was infuriatin

It was probably because work had consumed my entire life these past few weeks, but standing across from Sylvie again, talking like this—it felt like something from another lifetime."Your face…" she said softly."I had surgery overseas," I replied, touching the faint ridges on my cheek where the scars still lingered. "Figured it was time I stopped frightening people in public."She looked at me, then hesitated. "But why enter a design competition? I thought acting was your true passion."I didn't answer. But from the way her expression shifted, she already realized how foolish the question was.My injuries had been too severe—facial nerves damaged, muscles stiff and unresponsive. I could barely manage basic expressions. And acting, of all professions, demanded a full spectrum of emotion.A heavy silence settled between us.After a long moment, Sylvie broke it first."Grandma was hospitalized recently. I've been taking care of her," she said. "She keeps talking about wanting a g

As I stepped out of the private room, a wave of exhilaration washed over me. It felt oddly liberating.Sylvie ran out after me, ignoring the voices behind her trying to hold her back. She stood in front of me, arms stretched as if to block my path."Johnny! That's enough. Come back with me. Now."I glanced at her and let out a cold, mocking laugh."You know, Sylvie, I never realized what a great actress you are. Cut the act. You'd planned to marry Tyler all along, hadn't you?""I didn't—" she protested, but after struggling for a moment, those were the only words she could manage."Look at yourself," I said. "You've become so... cheap."The word cheap made her flinch. She'd always prided herself on her elegance, her pride.I didn't bother to say more. I turned and walked away from the hotel without looking back.Without telling anyone, I boarded a flight abroad to meet with the plastic surgeon I had contacted. His skills far exceeded my expectations.When I saw the reflection

"I'm just a waiter, huh? Then let me clean that filthy mouth of yours!"I flung the teapot, scalding tea splashing straight across Tyler's face. He shrieked in pain, jerking back as steam rose from his skin."What the hell?! You've lost your damn mind, Johnny!"Before he could recover, I slammed my fist hard into his face."Throwing a wedding with another man's wife—and you look proud of it? You're so eager to play the kept man? Fine. I'll ruin that smug face of yours."Sylvie paled, frozen for a beat before shouting for the butler to stop me.I landed punch after punch before they dragged me back. In the scuffle, my foot landed squarely on Tyler's hand.He curled up on the floor, groaning in pain. The Thompson family rushed to his side, fussing over him like he was made of porcelain.Sylvie's father was livid, his face blotched red with fury. "You freak! You lunatic! You think you can show up at a Thompson family dinner and act like this? Divorce! You're getting divorced!"

There was a brief silence on the other end of the line before Sylvie spoke."We're still married. As long as that's true, you're my husband. If you don't show up to the family dinner tonight, then forget about the divorce."And with that, she hung up.The livestream continued. The camera followed her and Tyler, hand in hand, as they toasted the guests.The comment section brimmed with praise—a match made in heaven, beauty and talent, a perfect pair.I closed the window without a word.That afternoon, after finalizing the surgical plan with a specialist overseas, I returned home. But I couldn't shake the thought—Sylvie's refusal to sign the divorce papers remained a problem.After some consideration, I made a decision. I would go to the family dinner and end things properly.When I arrived at the hotel, the lobby was buzzing with celebration. Posters of Sylvie and Tyler's wedding were plastered across the walls.In just a single day, they'd already printed wedding portraits.I
