Semua Bab Divorce: My Anniversary Surprise To The Heartless Man: Bab 1 - Bab 6

Rachel's POV:"Happy third anniversary! Come home early-I've planned a surprise I'm sure you'll love."After sending the text, I waited patiently, but there was no reply.I set my phone aside and returned to the kitchen. I lowered the heat on the stove and continued chopping vegetables, humming to myself as I worked.Despite the lack of response, my mood remained upbeat.The housekeeper observed and offered, "Mrs. Murray, let me assist you.""No, it's alright. You keep doing what you're doing. I want to make dinner for him myself tonight."The housekeeper commented, "Mrs. Murray, you and Mr. Murray really seem to be deeply in love."I forced a smile and said nothing.In love, Dean Murray and I?It felt more like a façade. I knew deep down he didn't love me.At 7 PM, Dean arrived home, and the housekeeper discreetly left.As I finished setting the table, I felt his warm breath on my neck.

I settled back on the couch, speaking slowly. "Honestly, for the past three years of marriage to Dean, I've barely slept a wink. He was coerced into marrying me, and now that we're getting a divorce, it's for the best. I owe him nothing."Jane spent another half hour furiously venting about Dean and Cynthia, her tirade eventually lulling me to sleep with

Cynthia's POV:I stood paralyzed, overwhelmed by fear and anxiety.When Dean finally left, my friends breathed a sigh of relief and gathered around me once more. "Cynthia, isn't Dean your boyfriend? Why is he talking to you like that?"I was at a loss for words, my complexion as pale as a ghost.Recently, Dean and I had attended many social events together, and rumors about our relationship had been spreading without him denying them.This led me to devise alternative plans.I created a fake pregnancy report and presented it to Rachel, hoping she would step aside.If successful, I could secure my position with Dean in a legitimate manner.I had thought through various possible outcomes, but I never expected Dean's response to be so intense.After returning home, I dedicated details about Dean and Rachel's marriage.Back then, Rachel's father had fallen into financial difficulties, and his creditor sold her to the Twilight Lounge. After escaping, she met Dean and pleaded with him to sa
