Chapter 1

Ultimately, I still couldn't hold it back and stopped at the entrance of the wedding hall.Inside, Ingrid Steele, my wife of eight years, was having a grand wedding with another man. Meanwhile, I, her legally wedded husband, could only slink away into the shadows after giving her my best wishes.I waited at the entrance for a long time. However, Ingrid never chased after me as I expected. She didn't even call me or bother to explain herself.I felt like an abandoned dog that was wandering aimlessly on the streets.I didn't dare to go home. I didn't want to, either. I was afraid of seeing both her and her new "husband", Hank Conley, there together. I was even more afraid that she wouldn't even bother coming back at all.It wasn't until late at night that Ingrid finally began blowing up my phone. I declined the call at least a dozen times before finally answering."What the hell are you playing at, Jordan Newman? It's the middle of the night. Why aren't you home yet? You'd better g

Ingrid messaged me at last, feeling completely distraught as she begged me to lend her 800,000 dollars for the surgery.I had been attending a banquet with my dad at that time and didn't see her message until very much later. However, as soon as I saw it, I immediately transferred the money to her.Yet, her second message popped up almost at the same time. She sounded absolutely in despair. "I'll do anything you want as long as you'll lend me the money!"My heart sank to the bottom of my stomach. Damn it! She was going to think that I only lent her the money because of her second message!Just as I suspected, she thought that I was trying to buy her with the 800,000 dollars.There was a horrible thunderstorm in the morning the next day, with rain pelting down from the heavens. Yet, Ingrid suddenly appeared outside my home.I rushed out at once and grabbed her moments before she lost consciousness and hit the pavement."Indy!"I scooped her up and ran back into the house, but

Chapter 3

I had worked so hard for Ingrid and this family for so many years, and yet, this was how she talked about me with Gaby?"Gaby, come with me first, okay? Daddy will explain later."I tried to hug her, but she desperately pulled away, refusing to let me hold her. She kept repeating, "I don't want a useless daddy! I want a daddy who can earn lots of money! I want a better daddy who will always take me out and live a good life with Mommy!"I don't want you! You're a bad daddy! You're useless!"My heart ached like it was being torn apart. Ingrid had really gone too far this time!I tried to forcefully take Gaby with me, but she struggled so violently that I didn't dare to grab her anymore in case I hurt her."I don't want a useless daddy like you! You killed my little brother! It's all your fault I don't have a little brother!"I froze.What did she mean I killed her younger brother?What kind of nonsense had Ingrid been feeding her? How could she twist the truth and ruin my relati

Chapter 4

Originally, I hadn't planned to go back to the Steele family manor that weekend. However, I changed my mind after looking at the test report.The Steele family had always been prude and snobbish. Back when my family hadn't gone bankrupt, they had fawned all over me and tried to curry favor with me at every turn.My family helped them raise an empire, but we soon ran into some issues and went bankrupt unexpectedly overnight.They changed their attitude toward us in an instant. They became extremely condescending toward me and always looked down on me, wanting nothing more than to get rid of me and trample me into the dirt.But now, I held the hospital test report in my hands and decided that I really needed to pay them a visit after all.…I arrived at Steele Manor that weekend as agreed, but I was immediately met with their undisguised disgust and disdain."You're finally here! Hurry up and go take the trash out! Everyone's too busy in the house!""How could you come so late in

When Ingrid took a proper look at what I'd taken out, her expression changed drastically. She instinctively gripped Hank's hand tightly."Are you out of your mind, Jordan! It's Mom's birthday today! How dare you forge these documents? Are you trying to embarrass the family?"Everyone's expressions instantly changed upon hearing her words. Their shock immediately turned into disgust toward me instead.Rose clenched her fists tightly and fell silent for a long while before finally regaining her composure.Hank looked like he was indignant on behalf of the Steele family. However, he was secretly overjoyed. Now that the bridge had been set alight, all he had to do was wait until the day when their relationship could finally be formalized!He forced himself to suppress his joy and pretended to chide me angrily."Jordan Newman! It's Mom's birthday today. You should never have caused this kind of trouble on such a special occasion, even if you hated me that much!"You're literally drag

"You want a divorce? Fine. Let's meet at our usual spot," Ingrid's message read.I agreed because I was desperate to break off the relationship with her as soon as possible. Even more so, I wanted to bring Gaby to live with me as soon as possible.Our "usual spot" she mentioned was actually a coffee shop near our college.Back then, my family hadn't fallen on hard times yet, and I often brought her there for coffee. And every time I ordered coffee, I would get an extra shot of syrup just so that it would be too bitter for her.After my family went bankrupt, Ingrid became prude and conceited, and we never came back to this coffee shop since.Maybe it was time for us to end our relationship where we started it.I smiled bitterly and walked straight toward the coffee shop.Ingrid had been waiting for a while, chatting with Hank next to her. They were pressed up close against each other as they exchanged affectionate glances while being completely oblivious to the rest of the people

"It's also because of how much I love Ingrid that I realized just how incredibly skilled she is in certain aspects…" Hank said, closing his eyes, seemingly lost in thought as he recalled some unspeakable scenes, even letting out weird, lewd noises. "Her skills in bed are top-notch."Ingrid immediately blushed and playfully punched him in the chest. "Hey! There are people here!"Hank just looked at her and pulled her into his arms, telling her, "We're only going to let him watch from the side next time."He then looked at me with a condescending gaze."Think it over carefully. As long as you help Ingrid secure her position at the top again, I don't mind sharing her body with you."The familiar feeling of nausea washed over me once again, and I finally couldn't hold it in anymore, throwing up right before them.Both Hank and Ingrid looked at me with a complicated expression when I finally managed to calm down. I, however, looked at Hank with a puzzled expression."You've known Ing

Chapter 8

Even the gaming company I had founded went public and became one of the top global gaming companies.Everyone else thought that I was just some parasite dependent on Ingrid's charity and consistently looked down on me. However, I used to be a wealthy heir born with a silver spoon in my mouth, and I'd naturally learned a thing or two about running businesses from a young age.Besides, I had capital now!My next step in revenge was to make that ungrateful Ingrid return every penny that once belonged to me.The Steele family only got to where they were because of me. They were just regular people after all, and knew close to nothing about these projects.The first few projects in Steele Group were all handled by me, and I had been careful even back then to set up a few traps and loopholes for them to fall into.After securing their weakness, all it took was one final push, and behold, Steele Group began to teeter on the brink of collapse due to cash flow issues.I sent a lawyer to

Chapter 9

"Please sign the documents if there are no further issues," Samson said.Ingrid's shoulders slumped at once as she stared blankly at the contract before her."You don't have any way out of this anymore now that things have come to this, Ingrid. You can return Gaby to me now.""Jordan Newman! How could you do such a thing to me! We were married for eight years! How could you—""Don't spout this nonsense with me anymore," I cut her off, not interested in listening to her rambling. "I just want my daughter back. We don't have anything to do with each other anymore."Ingrid pleaded with me for a long time and finally realized that I wasn't ever going to back down. She finally blurted out Gaby's address in despair, suddenly getting down on her knees and begging me for mercy.I frowned and felt no sympathy for her. After all, she had brought this on herself. I simply took a step back and told Samson, "Please handle this for me. I don't want to see her in this condition."He nodded, an
