It was only then that I realized I never knew where Shirley's address was, aside from the time she stayed with me in my house. With no other option, I found myself rushing over to Rachel's workplace to find her.However, her colleagues told me that she had taken the week off for her wedding preparations.Back when I married her, I was the only person busying myself with purchasing our home together, renovating it, and even picking out her wedding dress and planning out the decor for our wedding.Rachel said that she was too busy at work and couldn't afford to take any time off to plan the wedding details.Now that I thought of it, it hadn't been because she was too busy to take time off work. She just didn't think that I was important enough in her life and that it just wasn't worth her taking time off to plan the wedding with me after all!Some things were just like that—the more I couldn't come to a conclusion myself, the more I needed to get to the bottom of things.I decided

Rachel realized that I was being serious and softened her tone at once."Aaron, I won't hold it against you for bringing another woman into the house anymore. Can you stop getting mad at me now? I promise that I'll remarry you after Mom is dead!""Forget about it. You already have a son with someone else. Just continue living your life with Max instead."I'd dated Rachel for three years before marrying her for four years. Aside from the very start, I was the one who kept having to chase after Rachel to keep up with her, and frankly speaking, I was exhausted now.On top of that, I used to think that she wouldn't cheat on me like other people, which was the main reason why I even got together with her in the first place. So, now, I could just forget about it!Seeing that I was firm in my decision, Rachel began making a huge fuss over everything."Half of this house belongs to me, Aaron Matthews! I will never allow you to sell it off!"Also, we promised to fake our divorce, and it

Rachel then shook her head in exasperation and began yelling at Shirley, "Can't you stop making a fuss? I never paid a single cent for this house! Aaron was the one who bought it himself!"Yet, Shirley still continued arguing unreasonably. Finally, I had no other choice and brought up the matter of her faking her illness to commit insurance fraud, threatening to call the police on her. It was only then that Shirley finally backed down before being dragged away by Rachel.I watched how Rachel and Shirley interacted regularly and finally understood why my relationship with Shirley kept deteriorating despite having Rachel as the middle person.After they finally left, I also saw Robert out of the door, and soon, it was only Dad and I left in the house.His eyes were rimmed red as he reached out and patted me on the shoulder."You little rascal. How could you not have told us about your divorce? If Titus had never called us, your mom and I would still have been left in the dark!"Wha

"Officer, Rachel Brady has been relentlessly harassing me and causing serious disruption to my life. And then, her husband, Max Cohen, broke into my house without cause and verbally abused an elderly woman, eventually leading to her death," I said."This is a case for the police to handle, isn't it?"The officer on the other end of the line was a little shocked by how listless I sounded on the phone. He immediately replied righteously, "Of course, sir!"And so, Rachel and Max were "invited" to the police station to assist with the officers' investigations.When Shirley learned about it, she immediately hailed a cab straight to the police station. The first thing she did when she stepped into the station was to raise her hand in the air to slap me.Yet, after being abused by her like that for years, I was ready to defend myself. As soon as she raised her hand, I immediately caught it and shoved her out of the way at once."You bastard, Aaron Matthews! How dare you hit me? I am old

Surprisingly, Titus wasn't asking me the questions on my parents' behalf.He frowned and spoke hesitantly, "Just tell me if you still have feelings for her!"I shook my head. "I don't anymore. I stopped ever since she married someone else."Titus sighed in relief and patted himself on the chest."That's good to hear. Then, I guess I don't mind telling you about it anymore."I was really curious now about what he was being so mysterious about. I urged him to spill the beans, and then, he suddenly delivered shocking news to me."Rachel's dead.""What? Why?""Stomach cancer," Titus replied. "I heard that she was already sick when she attended my wedding back then. She'd secretly escaped from her hospital room for a few hours and then checked herself back in after the wedding to continue with her treatment."She finally succumbed on the night of your birthday and passed on."As it turned out, the last phone call she made was also the very last phone call she'd ever made.I felt
