Chapter 1

Grace Anderson snatched her phone back and immediately locked it. I watched her reaction and said coldly, “Cloud Mansion’s under Ken Smith’s name, but the property management office sent the text message to you instead.“Do you want to explain that?”She slammed her phone against the table with the screen down and took a sip of water before saying, “I’m purchasing a property for my relative, and I wanted to use a discount that’s only available for the lower-income group, so I borrowed Ken’s ID for that. My relative left the country a while back, so he asked me to take care of it on his behalf.”“Which relative?”“You don’t know him. It’s a distant uncle.”She was lying. Over our decade-long marriage, I had met all of her relatives. No one fit the profile of a distant relative. I wanted to pry further, but she looked upset.“Are you assuming that I bought the mansion for Ken? “You know how much I earn! If I really had that much money, we would’ve moved to the city center a

However, I had never seen these men’s products and children’s toys. Besides, she handed her entire $5,000 salary to me every month. How would she still have more than 100 thousand dollars in her account? I scrolled through her account and found that she transferred $20,000. She had been transferring the same amount every month for over nine years. My breath hitched. I could not believe my eyes. Gritting my teeth, I tapped on her income records.She gave birth to our son the year after we got married. After her maternity leave, she returned to work. She begged me to resign and take care of our child. She told me she could be the bread-winner of the household. Very soon, she claimed that her company was not doing well, so her salary had been reduced to only $5,000 a month. She told me to watch every penny and not to spend it on new clothes. Instead of physical books for our son, I could only get e-books. She would even nag me when I bought a little extra meat at the market. I

Everyone was lying to me. I saw Grace gently fasten the seat belt for the young girl before she drove off. I stood there stiffly until she slammed on the brakes and met my eyes in terror. “Sam, why are you here?!” Ken and her parents were also stunned. They all stared at her helplessly.Grace got out of the car and ran toward me in a panic. “Is this what you mean when you say you’re busy at work? Is this what you do when you don’t have time to drop Jack at school?”“No, hear me out! It wasn’t very convenient for Ken to raise his daughter alone as a man. He asked me for help—”“Aren’t your parents here? How is it inconvenient for him?”Grace could not answer. The little girl in the passenger seat called out to her, “Mom, I’m going to be late for school!” It fell dead silent after that. Ken quickly covered her mouth. Grace’s parents stomped their feet in frustration. Grace’s face turned pale. I clenched my fists as my palms turned sweaty. “Grace, you said your w

Her eyes widened in disbelief. “You found out about… No! I only gave that money to Ken as compensation…”“What about me?”She gulped and was speechless. I panted and said, “When did you get together with him?”Ken looked at her with conflicted emotion. She gave up. “Before we got married, one of my relatives set us up on a blind date…”“Were you involved with him when you married me?”“No, I broke up with him before I married you. After that, he came into the city for work and…”She could no longer continue because the truth was ugly. Counting back nine months from Hailey’s birthday, this affair seemed to have started when her maternity leave ended. At that time, I was solely responsible for Jack. I made sure he slept well, fed him at night, and soothed his cries and his tantrums. I had barely slept.Grace insisted on going back to work after her maternity leave ended. Then, she claimed that she had to be away for a work trip for six months. When she came back, Jack’s ro

I stared into her eyes. “Grace, it’s only been an hour since I discovered this. “You’ve lied to me for ten years! You apologize and resolve to break up with him in an instant…“That I’d forgive you, let you cheat on me, and let you have another man’s child? Do you think I’ll allow you to use our home to raise someone else’s baby?”Her face paled as she shook her head. “I don’t think you’re stupid. I just felt sorry for him, so I wanted to make it up to him.”“And you didn’t feel sorry for Jack and me?” “I’m sorry…”“You’re sorry now? When you bought him a mansion, gave him money, and had your parents help raise his child, were you sorry then? What about when you asked me to quit my job, told me to pinch every penny, and then hired him as our manny? Did you feel anything at all back then?”She felt even more guilty as I went on. In the end, she blurted frantically, “But I gave you money! At least I didn’t let Jack and you suffer in poverty all these years!” There was no h

Grace’s face drained of color. Her eyes became listless. Before she could speak up, Eloise broke free and pointed at me as she yelled, “Of course she’s going to divorce you! How dare you set conditions for that?“She’s the one who gave birth to Jack, and she’s the one who earns the money. Why’d she have to give those to you?”At that moment, I felt a little relieved. I felt relieved that Grace had hired Ken instead of letting her parents come stay with us.I could see that the past ten years would have been horrible for me if things had been any other way.However, I wanted to get a divorce, and I was not interested in arguing with them. I grabbed my phone and glanced at the blinking recording pen in my pocket. Then, I looked up and stared at her. “If you really cared about Jack, you wouldn’t have met him only twice in ten years!“Besides, ask your daughter. According to marital law, how’d the assets be distributed?” She spat on the ground with a twisted face. “I don’t c

Chapter 7

But she had lied to me and told me she only earned $5,000. She told me to watch every penny.I angrily saved everything from the tablet. Five minutes later, all accounts were logged out of the tablet. Grace was knocking on the door. “Sam, open the door. Let’s talk!“I know you’re at home. Please say something. I’m worried about you.“Sam, I’ve learned from my mistake. My mom was rambling. I only love you…“Sam, let me in! “Sam, I’m going to kick the door down if you don’t open it!” Before she kicked the door, I kicked it from the inside. I heard her shocked gasp, then she knocked the door even more forcefully. “Sam, what’s wrong? Are you hurt? Open the door!” I crossed my arms and asked, “Grace, why are you here instead of your fancy mansion?”“It’s not… Sam, open the door and let’s talk. You don’t want the neighbors to hear us, right?”“Why not? I hope everyone can hear that my wife made her lover our manny and bought him a mansion!”My voice got louder. Her voice

“How could I? Ken said that you paid him only $4,000. He said he couldn’t do much with that amount of money and said he was already doing plenty by preparing dinner for us.“He said that Mom agreed to that.”Jack blinked. “Mom, is $4,000 too little?” Grace almost fled that night. She could not even meet our eyes as she hurriedly left. She hastily said she had something to tend to before she barged out. Jack was confused, so he asked me in confusion, “Dad, is Mom working overtime again?“Can I still go to the theme park?”I hugged him lovingly. I was filled with bitter regret. Ken put up such a good act in front of me. He seemed passionate and honest. With his buzz cut and worn clothes, he claimed that he was a single father and had a hard time. He would prepare a lot of dishes every night and barely interacted with Grace. That was why I had never suspected anything. Grace never talked to him. Sometimes, when the food was a little too salty, she would tell me to conv

“We have to take this slow. After all, I’m still pregnant with his child. How about this? After I give birth, I’ll send him a sum for child support, then I’ll slowly save up…”“Why do you need to save up? Can’t I stay at Cloud Mansion?”“What are you talking about? That’s Ken’s house!”I put down the coffee cup and said, “Grace, you’re smart. You must know that buying a house and secretly spending all your money on your lover while you’re still married to another is a violation of the law. I’m sure I can get all of that when we get a divorce.“Or do you think he isn’t a homewrecker and it’s fine for you to throw money at him?“Too bad! Legally, he’s just your affair partner.”Grace’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. It was obvious that she understood everything. Before coming here, she must have consulted a lawyer and found out how low her chances of winning were. Even if I had not said anything, she would have guessed that I had accessed her tablet.I had all the evidenc

Chapter 10

“My client claims that during the marriage, the other party purchased a mansion and transferred a huge sum of money without my client’s consent. This is a violation of marital law, and we demand the recovery of the assets.” Grace frowned and glared at me. I smiled and indicated for her to listen. “Here is the conversation history to prove that Grace was transferring $15,000 every month to her mother. She framed it as parental support, but she was using that money to purchase gifts for her affair partner. This is a misuse of marital assets, and we demand the recovery of these assets.” Grace almost went insane. She stood up abruptly. She was very clearly pregnant. She pointed at me and screamed, “Sam, you’re forcing me to a dead corner!” Ken sat anxiously behind Grace. “No way! Grace, Hailey still needs to attend her private school. We can’t give him the money!” The judge hit the gavel. Grace’s lawyer told her to sit back down. Her lawyer whispered something in her ear. S
