Chapter 5

ผู้เขียน: Wild Sprint
Several days later, Annabelle called me and weakly told me that she was feeling unwell. She even sent a photo of her on an IV drip.

At the same time, I was visiting a couple-themed restaurant at the invitation of a client, Susan Woods. All around us, couples were lovingly sharing a meal with each other.

Suddenly, I spotted two familiar figures among the crowd.

The ambient lighting was dim, but I could still see Annabelle, who was supposed to be on an IV drip at the hospital, cuddled up to Be

  • Waited for Her Love in Vain   Chapter 9

    The day our divorce was to be finalized, Annabelle arrived on time, with Bernard tagging along.She kept her head bowed in silence through the proceedings. It wasn't until the lawyer informed us of the division of assets that she finally raised her head."Hold on, did I hear wrong? Why am I only getting half the house and nothing else?" Annabelle looked at me, her body swaying as though she were about to collapse.Beside her, Bernard slammed a hand on the table and leaped to his feet. "What the fuck did you just say? Goodman is practically rolling in money, so why did we only get so little of his assets?""Calm down." The lawyer took his time explaining, "When they got married, the only asset Mr. Goodman brought to the table was a house. All other financial assets are not in his name."That last sentence had Annabelle and Bernard in an uproar.Annabelle sprang to her feet and yelled in disbelief, "Camden Goodman, did you have it all planned out from the beginning? Did you purpose

  • Waited for Her Love in Vain   Chapter 8

    By the end of Annabelle's tirade, tears were streaming down her face. For once, she seemed to be showing her genuine emotions.However, I laughed like I had heard the funniest joke in the world. Wiping away my tears of mirth, I said, "So, you do know that I treated you like a queen and that I used to love you deeply. But do you remember how you treated me all these years?"No matter how deeply in love two people are, their relationship will still fail if they can't support each other. For the past three years, I have been struggling to maintain our relationship all on my own. Where were you then? You were either off having fun with your so-called friends or spending time with your precious Bernie!"Annabelle's lips quivered as she reached out a trembling hand to grab me. "Camden, I'm so sorry. I was a fool back then. Now, I know just how hard you've had it. Can you please forgive me one more time? This time, I really will change. I'll be your perfect wife. You've always wanted a c

  • Waited for Her Love in Vain   Chapter 7

    I returned to my parents' house.Back when I insisted on marrying Annabelle, my relationship with my parents became incredibly tense. Now that I was back, Dad was absolutely delighted. He immediately dragged me off to purchase yet another company.When the topic of divorce and the division of assets came up, Dad teasingly asked me what my thoughts were.Shooting him a grin, I answered, "Well, I'm thankful for your foresight."We shared a smile.Hardly a few days had passed when Dad urged me to go on a blind date. Since his tone was firm and left no room for argument, I couldn't exactly refuse.Exasperated, I agreed to meet my blind date, Jennifer Eaton, at a cafe. Not wanting to waste her time, I told her from the get-go about my situation, at which point she also informed me that she wasn't interested in me.Seeing as our parents had stipulated we spend a certain amount of time together, we could only sit around and wait for that time to pass.Just as I was about to doze off i

  • Waited for Her Love in Vain   Chapter 6

    The instant I left the restaurant, I had my assistant freeze Annabelle's credit card. I was certainly not going to sponsor her or her lover.Soon after that, Annabelle began calling me frantically, making close to 100 calls. Still, I ignored every single one of them.Then, one day, the hospital called to tell me that Annabelle had collapsed by the roadside and didn't have the money to pay for her medical bills, so they requested me to pay on her behalf.When I saw Annabelle again, her complexion was deathly pale, and her voice was so hoarse that she could hardly speak.She leaped out of bed as I entered her room, but then she hesitated, seemingly unsure of what to do. In the end, she tugged at my sleeve while complaining tearfully, "Camden, why did you freeze my card? Right now, I don't even have the money to pay for my own treatment. Could you please treat me better? Don't you feel the slightest bit of pity for me?"Her meek behavior reminded me of my past self.Many times bef

All around us, couples were lovingly sharing a meal with each other. Suddenly, I spotted two familiar figures among the crowd.The ambient lighting was dim, but I could still see Annabelle, who was supposed to be on an IV drip at the hospital, cuddled up to Bernard. There was a resentful and angry scowl on her face as she complained, "I finally got to leave that place. Bernie, you have no idea how much suffering I've endured the past few days! "Camden seems to have become a completely different person. Every time I have to see that indifferent face of his, I'm overcome with the urge to slap the living daylights out of him!"Bernard stroked her waist and smiled soothingly. "Don't be mad, Anna. Just hold on a little longer until I can think of a w

    In an instant, the room fell deathly silent. It was as though someone had pressed the pause button.After several beats, Annabelle widened her eyes in disbelief. "Camden Goodman, have you gone nuts? Do you even know what you're saying right now?"Not a hint of emotion stirred in me as I answered, "I'm not crazy. In fact, I'm very calm right now. What? Do you think that instead of asking for a divorce, I should be standing here and watching as you fuck Bernard like nobody's around?"Annabelle went white, her entire body shaking from the force of her anger."I have no idea what you're talking about! Sure, Bernie and I were once together, but that was in the past! Now, we're just very good friends!""Friends?" I scoffed. "You mean the kind of friends who pick out rings together and have sex anytime, anywhere?""Camden Goodman!" Annabelle abruptly shrieked, her voice reaching a fever pitch. "Get the hell out of here!""Gladly," I replied with a look of disgust. "Every second spent h
