On the day of the United Nations meeting, I noticed a new electronic watch on my wife’s wrist. She said it was a gift from her first love to monitor her health. It was a veiled jab, which implied I was not as thoughtful or caring as an outsider. Something felt off, so during her lunch break I secretly checked, and found a bugging device. I reported it immediately, using my official title to cover her wrongdoing. Her first love, however, was now wanted by the authorities. While fleeing, he tragically died in a car accident. My wife said coldly that it served him right, yet treated me with even more care and attention. However, she deliberately leaked my translation files at work, which resulted in me being accused of espionage and taken in for investigation. “Miles, that bug was clearly planted by you. You were jealous of Ash and wanted him dead!” “I truly regret giving up Ash to marry someone as malicious as you. You should go to hell and atone for him!” When I opened my eyes again, I was back there once again on the day her first love gave her that watch. I did not interfere this time. I simply signed my name on the divorce papers.

I finally spoke. My voice was cold and the disgust in it impossible to miss.“Wynnie, could you please stop trying to disgust me?”She acted as though she had not heard me at all and continued talking to herself.“I know you’re still mad now. You can curse me or you can hit me. I won’t blame you for any of it.”“Haven’t you always wanted to become the chief interpreter? I’ve already talked to my father. He said that as long as you don’t divorce me, he’ll find a way to get you that position.”I laughed softly, then took out my credentials as chief interpreter and waved them in front of her.“Sorry. I got here on my own.”“Wynnie, I’ll say this one last time. If you don’t want your affair to become public knowledge, then hurry up and sign the divorce papers.”Then, I walked past her and left.However, Wynnie still could not accept the reality that I truly wanted a divorce. She waited outside the Translation Institute every day for me to get off work.Not only did I feel no symp

“Also, Wynnie and I are already in the process of a consensual divorce, so we’re no longer family.”The smile on Ms. Lynn’s face froze instantly, then hardened into displeasure.“Miles, don’t forget that you wouldn’t have been able to marry Wynnie so easily if I hadn’t agreed back then.”“Now that something’s happened to her, you’re trying to wash your hands of it?”I remained calm and composed.“Ms. Lynn, the one who made the mistake was Wynnie. The one who betrayed our marriage vows was also her. We’re all adults here. Everyone has to pay the price for their own choices.”“Furthermore, everything I’ve achieved today has nothing to do with Wynnie, and even less to do with the Lynn family. I earned it on my own.“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you just said for the sake of our past relationship. If you try to play dirty behind my back, I won’t go easy on you.”As I spoke, I took a voice recorder out of my pocket.Ms. Lynn’s face changed instantly.I did not give her another

Wynnie did not notice what I was doing and continued to shout arrogantly, “You’re abusing your authority. I’m telling you right now. This isn’t over!”I let out a cold chuckle and placed the miniature listening device in front of her.She stopped talking instantly, and her expression changed dramatically.…“Ms. Lynn, where exactly did these listening devices in your suitcase come from? Don’t tell me this is because someone else is framing you again.”The security officer stared at her coldly.The entire conference room fell silent. The only sound was Wynnie’s rapid, uneven breathing.“No… these aren’t mine… That suitcase isn’t mine. I don’t know why those things are in there!”The head of security officer sneered, “Just now, you insisted this suitcase belonged to you, yet now you’re changing your story? Do we need to put you in an interrogation room before you start telling the truth?”Wynnie finally collapsed. She covered her face and burst into tears.“These things really

Wynnie’s expression shifted again and again when she heard that. She kept muttering to herself, “That’s impossible… How could that be? Ash loves me. How could he ever hurt me?”“Miles, you’re just jealous of Ash. You’re deliberately trying to drive a wedge between us.”Seeing how hopelessly stubborn she was, I could not be bothered to argue with her anymore.If this farce was going to continue, I would have to push it forward myself.I turned to the head of security and said calmly, “Sir, that smartwatch was a gift from an off-roster staff member at our institute. Why don’t we invite him over here as well to assist with the investigation?”“Is he here too?” asked the head of security.I nodded. “Yes. He’s staying at the same hotel as us.”The captain immediately dispatched officers to bring Ash in.Not only did Wynnie fail to stop them, she looked at me with absolute confidence.“Good. Have him come. Once Ash gets here, I want to see what excuse you’ll use to slander us then.”

Wynnie’s face went deathly pale. Her entire body froze in place.“A… a listening device? That’s impossible!”“You must have made a mistake, right? I’ve attended so many international conferences. Don’t you think I know what I can and can’t bring?”However, the security personnel ignored her compl

As she spoke, it was as though something suddenly crossed her mind. She shot me a vicious look.“Miles, did you deliberately plant that listening device?”“You’ve always been jealous of how close Ash and I are. You’ve never liked him. This is exactly the kind of thing you’d do!”“It’s no wonder y
