"What? How dare you sell my daughter's house? Who gave you the guts to do that? On what basis?" Shirley screamed in my face.

"On the basis that only Aaron's name is on the property title of this house!" a loud, booming voice suddenly sounded behind us.

I looked up and immediately caught sight of a familiar silhouette.

"Dad!" I exclaimed, happy. I never expected him to be paying me a sudden visit since our hometown was so far away. "What are you doing here, Dad?"

Dad scoffed. "If I weren't h

  • Turning a Fake Divorce Into Reality   Chapter 10

    Surprisingly, Titus wasn't asking me the questions on my parents' behalf.He frowned and spoke hesitantly, "Just tell me if you still have feelings for her!"I shook my head. "I don't anymore. I stopped ever since she married someone else."Titus sighed in relief and patted himself on the chest."That's good to hear. Then, I guess I don't mind telling you about it anymore."I was really curious now about what he was being so mysterious about. I urged him to spill the beans, and then, he suddenly delivered shocking news to me."Rachel's dead.""What? Why?""Stomach cancer," Titus replied. "I heard that she was already sick when she attended my wedding back then. She'd secretly escaped from her hospital room for a few hours and then checked herself back in after the wedding to continue with her treatment."She finally succumbed on the night of your birthday and passed on."As it turned out, the last phone call she made was also the very last phone call she'd ever made.I felt

    As for Rachel, she came looking for me once after being released from the station. At that time, I had already started up my own business and was as busy as a bee, so I barely had any time to talk to her.I heard from my employees that she waited for me for the whole day outside my office building before leaving without a backward glance. After that, she never came looking for me again.My new company was very successful, and business kept increasing every day, keeping me on my toes.Time passed quickly, and soon, it was the day of Titus' wedding.I wore the best man suit that he personally picked out for me and headed straight for the venue early in the morning. When Titus saw me, he came over to me at once."Hey, Aaron! What's in the water you've been drinking? Why do you look so much more handsome now than ever before?"I rolled my eyes and said, "Stop pulling my leg. Everyone's waiting for you."Titus grinned. "That divorce did you good. It's given you a whole new life!"I

    "Officer, Rachel Brady has been relentlessly harassing me and causing serious disruption to my life. And then, her husband, Max Cohen, broke into my house without cause and verbally abused an elderly woman, eventually leading to her death," I said."This is a case for the police to handle, isn't it?"The officer on the other end of the line was a little shocked by how listless I sounded on the phone. He immediately replied righteously, "Of course, sir!"And so, Rachel and Max were "invited" to the police station to assist with the officers' investigations.When Shirley learned about it, she immediately hailed a cab straight to the police station. The first thing she did when she stepped into the station was to raise her hand in the air to slap me.Yet, after being abused by her like that for years, I was ready to defend myself. As soon as she raised her hand, I immediately caught it and shoved her out of the way at once."You bastard, Aaron Matthews! How dare you hit me? I am old

    "Don't you find it really ironic, Rachel Grady?" I asked. "We're already divorced, and you already have a family of your own."Kindly know where you stand and stop bothering me!"I chased her off afterward, and she told me in a hurt voice, "You will always be my husband to me, Aaron Matthews, and that will never change."I had been busy taking care of Mom ever since coming home, and I also didn't have the heart to break the news about my divorce to Grandma because of her failing health. That was how Rachel had taken advantage of that loophole.Back then, Dad had opposed my marriage with Rachel, and I was the one who begged Grandma to talk to Dad on my behalf and convince him to let me marry her. If she found out that Rachel and I were now divorced, I was worried that she would begin blaming herself for our misfortune.I simply didn't dare to tell Grandma the truth.However, little did I think that Rachel's constant visits and showing up at my house would also lead Max to find us.

    Rachel then shook her head in exasperation and began yelling at Shirley, "Can't you stop making a fuss? I never paid a single cent for this house! Aaron was the one who bought it himself!"Yet, Shirley still continued arguing unreasonably. Finally, I had no other choice and brought up the matter of her faking her illness to commit insurance fraud, threatening to call the police on her. It was only then that Shirley finally backed down before being dragged away by Rachel.I watched how Rachel and Shirley interacted regularly and finally understood why my relationship with Shirley kept deteriorating despite having Rachel as the middle person.After they finally left, I also saw Robert out of the door, and soon, it was only Dad and I left in the house.His eyes were rimmed red as he reached out and patted me on the shoulder."You little rascal. How could you not have told us about your divorce? If Titus had never called us, your mom and I would still have been left in the dark!"Wha

"What are you doing here, Dad?"Dad scoffed. "If I weren't here, then I bet my son would have been completely taken advantage of by now!"Back then, I went against Dad's advice and insisted on marrying Rachel and moving to her hometown instead. In a fit of rage, Dad broke off all contact with me, and I could never manage to talk to him anymore after that.But now, I figured that he had probably found out about my divorce.Rachel knew who Dad was, and she instinctively greeted him as such. "Hi, Dad."Shirley immediately glared resentfully at Rachel. M
