He Chose Divorce, so I Destroyed His Legacy のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

As soon as Eugene was done talking, the rest of the villagers immediately burst into laughter."You poor thing, Maria! You don't have a dime to your name, and you're obviously doing much worse than us all," one of them jeered. "Mr. Doyle is still so nice to show you some kindness and take you in. Aren't you going to drop to your knees in gratitude and kiss the shoes on his feet or something?""Exactly!" another chimed in. "All you have to do is be their nanny! Isn't that so much better than living on the streets for years?"Janice proudly circled her hands around Eugene's arm and said, "Don't worry, Maria. I won't make things hard for you. You just need to cook and clean every day!"Eugene scoffed. "Why are you worried about that? She was born to do hard work. Her best talents are feeding pigs and serving people anyway!"We were forced to divorce due to some external circumstances back then. I promised her that I would come back to remarry her, but she ran away from home for five

I couldn't stop myself from smiling when I remembered how Rupert would always pretend not to care every time he got jealous when he actually minded it a lot.Eugene stared at the smile on my lips for a while. Then, he sighed and said, "I've always been waiting for you. I only had a baby with Janice because she wanted a child to keep her company. That way, she wouldn't have to be lonely and interfere in our lives. I'll remarry you after she gives birth, okay?"He said it so matter-of-factly as if he knew for sure that I would never reject his offer.I found it extremely amusing to watch.Five years ago, he had received word from the government that he'd been selected as one of the few students who were given a full scholarship to study in the city.Even though I was eight months pregnant, I had looked forward so much to our brighter future together in the city.But to my shock and horror, Eugene led me to the courthouse, divorced me, and grabbed Janice's hand instead.I felt the

Eugene glared at my and Rupert's wedding photo, looking as though he wanted to burn holes in my phone with his eyes.If this were five years ago, I would probably still feel bad for him or pity him. But now, not anymore.I turned and looked at Rupert next to me. He was currently crouched over on the ground, lacing up Cody's shoes for him. The sun was warm on his skin, giving him a rather ethereal glow.The luxury car was still parked over in the corner, and there were still two breakfast sandwiches he'd bought left in the glove compartment for me.The villagers immediately began chatting excitedly among themselves."Oh, my goodness! Who would have thought that Maria would end up marrying the richest man in the world? And to think that Eugene even tried giving her a bunch of ten-dollar bills earlier! How embarrassing!""That's right! He thought that Maria was living a terrible life on the streets all these years, but now, look at her! She's a famous archeologist, and her husband i

"I am nothing but a village girl who grew up in the countryside! How was I supposed to compare with her, with her fancy college degree?" Janice yelled back in Eugene's face. "She'd already enjoyed her life before that. Why couldn't I be the one to enjoy my life next?"She's nothing but a bitch, and she deserved everything that came to her! I just never thought that she'd manage to find someone else after everything. She's nothing but leftovers!"Eugene stared at Janice and felt as though he'd just been struck by a bolt of lightning.He knew all along that Janice had been a little spoiled, but he never thought that she was this evil. He simply couldn't fathom how much pain she'd caused me in the past.Eugene shoved her to the ground. "You're a cruel, heartless woman!"Janice suddenly grabbed at her belly and curled up on the ground in a fetal position. Blood started seeping through her pants and onto the dirt."The baby! My baby! He's coming out!"Eugene quickly rushed Janice to

"Janice was killed by Brutus. And the baby also wasn't mine; it was Brutus'. The child protection services have already taken him away," Eugene cried. "I—""It has nothing to do with us," I said, cutting him off. I then placed a protective hand on my belly and said, "I have a husband and children now. I'm very happy with my life."Cody suddenly poked his head out from Rupert's arms and asked, "Mommy, why is that weird man crying?"I pecked him on the cheek and said, "Because he did something wrong."The rain continued pelting down from the skies.Eugene watched as the three of us went back inside the house that was filled with warmth, and the door slowly closed in front of him.Just before the last of the light was shut out, he saw me say something to Rupert, and Rupert then smiled and rubbed my belly.The next morning, I found the blue bag Eugene had been holding last night hanging outside the door when I opened it. The three things were still inside the bag, but there was so
