Lahat ng Kabanata ng Divorce Finally Made Him Break: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

It had been so long since Timothy had held me this gently. His chest was as broad as it used to be, and I could feel the steady, strong beat of his heart through the thin fabric of his clothes. However, the warmth it had once brought me was nowhere to be found.My heart would no longer flutter for him as it used to.…I spent the night in Timothy's arms. When I woke up, he was still holding me from behind. I was still groggy when I heard a knock at the door."Daddy, are you in there? I'm coming in."Daphne's voice made Timothy jolt awake. A second later, she pushed the door open, and he quickly yanked the blanket over my head, covering me completely. I could barely breathe.I smiled bitterly under the covers. I felt like a mistress being caught in bed by the rightful wife… But I was Timothy's legal wife!Timothy's voice held the laziness of morning, yet carried a clear edge of displeasure. "Why did you bring Daphne here?"Yasmin chuckled softly and said, "Daphne refuses to go t

To keep my parents from worrying, I had spent every family holiday alone in the vast Grant residence.Now, however, here Harriett was. It didn't take me long to figure out why.She stood by my bedside and adjusted her cashmere shawl. She asked, "Did you write that article smearing Grant Corporation? The byline says Josie York. It's not someone with the same name, right?""Yes, I wrote it," I said frankly. It wasn't like I had done anything shameful. So, I figured that there was no need for me to lie.As soon as the words were out of my mouth, she slapped me hard across the face. My ears rang, and my cheek burned.With my foot still out of commission, I was stuck in bed, powerless to fight back. Fearing that she'd hit me again, I reached for the call button to summon a nurse to get her out.Harriett saw what I was doing and yanked my hand away, seething. "You shameless thing! How did Timothy ever end up marrying you? You can't even bear a child, and now you're turning on us! You'r

Timothy snorted as he sized me up. "Now, you realize that my mom's an elder? I don't remember you being this obedient back when she forbade you from marrying me."I was momentarily speechless. All the love and devotion I had once poured into him had now turned into daggers he was stabbing into me.He reached out and tilted my chin up to force me to meet his gaze. He said, "Playing hard to get loses its charm when you overdo it, Josie. As long as you don't make things difficult for Yasmin or hurt Daphne, I'll keep you around as my wife."He thought that his so-called assurance would put me at ease and make me grovel with gratitude, but it only strengthened my resolve to get a divorce.What good was the empty title of being his wife? Was I supposed to spend my life holed up in that villa, watching enviously as he, Yasmin, and Daphne basked in their happy family life?Fortunately, in less than half a month, I would be able to lay everything out with him.Thinking of the evidence Hea

Feeling slightly uneasy, I asked, "Mom, you didn't tell Yasmin that I would be there, too, right?"Mom chuckled. "Didn't you tell me not to? I kept quiet.""That's good," I said, sighing in relief. "Timothy and I will definitely be there next Wednesday."After ending the call with her, I received a call from my mother's hospital. They were chasing me for her treatment fees.Her hospitalization fees were astronomical, and the York family had covered them in the past. After marrying Timothy, he had insisted on taking over the expenses. Back then, he was always one step ahead of me and thinking of me. But now, he had forgotten every promise he made to me because he was off having fun with Yasmin.I held my phone and stared at the screen for a long time before making up my mind to call Timothy. However, it was Yasmin who answered."Ms. York, is something up? Tim is with Daphne now. He's not available." Her tone was polite but laced with a hint of superiority. It was as if I were the

I stared at Timothy in disbelief. "You want me to give Daphne a blood transfusion? Don't forget that I'm anemic myself, Timothy! It's pretty severe after three years of eating vegetarian food with you!"A strange look flashed across his face before he returned to his usual cold demeanor. "Your anemia isn't life-threatening, but Daphne needs your blood to survive. Only you can save her!"I clenched my fists tightly, making my nails dig into my palms. I forced through gritted teeth, "She's your child with Yasmin. Don't tell me that neither of your blood types matches hers! Why won't you make Yasmin donate her blood? Why me? Forget it! She's your daughter. Don't expect me to save her!"Just then, Yasmin burst through the door. She rushed to my bedside and fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face as she pleaded, "Ms. York, I'm begging you! Please do this for Daphne's sake. She's just a child! Please save her! I know she's done you wrong before…"She paused, as if remembering so
