Chapter 5

Author: Perfect Timing
The police arrived, bewildered by the chaotic scene. They raised their megaphone to ask, "Who called this in?"

Ms. White sniffled and replied in a high-pitched voice, "Oh, that'd be me! You must've been called by my husband. Earlier, a crazy woman appeared out of nowhere and caused a scene at the gate. She even tried to barge in, armed, with bodyguards!

"I was trying to protect the children and got hurt in the process. Now, I have no idea where she went. She's terrifying—please, you must catch

  • We Have the Same Husband?!   Chapter 9

    A sarcastic laugh escaped me. "Back when we got married, it wasn't like I had to choose you. Your family was the one who pushed you toward me. You knew perfectly well the marriage was meant for me to prop up the York family."If you didn't want it, you could've said so. You could've asked for a divorce. Don't act like you were forced into everything. All these years, I've poured countless dollars into your family. It's all gone, but did I ever complain?"You took the money I worked for and spent it on gambling and women. Do you have any conscience at all?"Chester refused to hear any of it. He covered his ears and shouted, trying to drown me out. I looked at him and questioned, "What about Elise? Isn't she having your baby, a precious son? Why don't you find her?"A dark smile crept across his face. "If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have found out about my affairs. All of this started because of her, so of course, she has to pay for it!"As for that so-called son, I never wante

    A few days later, I received the preliminary investigation report from the police.Since there had been so many people at the scene, and most of them had simply followed the crowd in the harassment without doing anything that caused me physical harm, the police couldn't make any arrests.At most, they could issue warnings.As for my diamond ring, Elise had tossed it aside carelessly, and it landed in a blind spot with no surveillance. The police spent days combing the area, but still couldn't find it.I looked through the list the station sent me and matched each name to the companies their families owned. After all, the kindergarten was in a commercial district, and the tuition was high.Most of the parents were business owners nearby, so that made things much easier for me.I went straight to their companies.If we were already working together, I would have terminated the partnerships immediately. If we weren't, there would never be any chance of working together in the futur

    I let out a dry laugh and shot back, "You think just because you're old, it gives you the right to spout nonsense? Do you even realize I move tens of billions in a minute? I don't need you teaching me how to run my life."Chester spun around and glared at the crowd. "This is a private matter between my wife and me! What business is it of yours? And for the record, my company doesn't even compare to hers. So, don't you dare question her abilities!"Having a wife like mine makes me the happiest man in the world. I don't need to do anything. I just stay home and enjoy my family!"I smiled sarcastically. Right then, the secretary I had sent to investigate Chester arrived in a hurry, handing me the full report. I glanced at Chester, tense and defensive, and at the stunned crowd.Then, I calmly flipped through the files and read aloud, "Chester, in the six years we've been married, you cheated seven times, had countless affairs, and even used my connections to register three additional m

    I thought Chester might at least have a shred of pride and refuse to kneel publicly, so I ignored him and walked straight onto the ambulance. To my surprise, he actually knelt, all because he needed me to continue investing in York Group.Afraid I would get in the ambulance and leave, he held onto my leg and shouted, "I'm sorry, honey! You can hit me and scold me all you want, but please don't divorce me! I love you, and Elise was just a mistake!"I promise you I won't go back to her! Every human makes mistakes. Please, just forgive me this one time, okay?"Seeing that Hazel had been treated and was now safe, I paused and looked back, crossing my arms.The sight of Chester begging me made Elise fly into a rage.She charged forward and screamed, "Chester, what do you think you're doing, calling another woman your wife? What about our marriage certificate? If you'd just spoken up for me, I would've forgiven you for cheating on me!"At that, I raised a slight eyebrow and glanced at

She's terrifying—please, you must catch her!"The onlookers nodded vigorously, eager to back her up. "We witnessed it! Everything she said is true! You must arrest her!"I signaled the bodyguards who were blocking the way to step aside and spoke loudly. "Officers, it was me. I called the police because this woman abused my child, ruined a diamond worth 300 million, and publicly insulted me."Everyone you see here participated in harassing me and tried to cover for her!"Once I spoke, the paramedics noticed the marks on Hazel and

    I fished out a folding knife from the hidden pocket of my coat and stabbed it straight into Ms. White's body. Blood trickled down from her inner thighs, soon staining her white dress red.It wasn't enough for me. What I did was far from the marks she had left on Hazel.She screamed and collapsed to the ground. The crowd—a bunch of crazed sycophants—surrounded her, distracting her long enough for me to slip past.Seizing the moment, I rushed into the security office and scooped Hazel into my arms. My bodyguards arrived shortly after and helped get us out safely.I removed my dirty coat and wiped my hands before touching Hazel. Gently, I freed her mouth from the tape and carefully checked her.When I lifted her skirt, I noticed fresh bruises and scratches across her legs.They weren't just the aftermath of a metal rod. Those were clearly knife cuts, nail scratches, and even burnt marks from cigarette butts.Though Hazel had been through so much, she didn't break down crying as I h
