Chapter 1

Victoria Gibson cracked the small whip soaked in iodine across my back. Her voice was cold as she asked, "Tyrell Griffin, I'm asking you one last time. Are you signing the divorce papers or not?"The sharp sting of pain reminded me I wasn't dreaming.I, a delivery guy, somehow transmigrated into the role of a vicious male supporting character.The original Tyrell and Victoria had a marriage of convenience, with no feelings involved. They had been married for five years, with Tyrell constantly bending over backward to please her.Victoria only had eyes for her first love, Luke Austin.Yesterday, Tyrell slapped Luke across the face in a fit of jealousy. To avenge Luke, Victoria had Tyrell hung up and beaten.I remembered how the plot went. Tyrell refused to sign the divorce papers, and in the end, he was brutally torn apart.I needed to survive, so I quickly blurted, "Yes! I'll sign it!"Only then did Victoria order her men to release me and toss over the divorce agreement.As I

A sharp ding echoed as my phone lit up with a notification. "Five million dollars has been credited to your account."I shot upright like a fish flipping off a dock.Victoria looked at me. "That's your compensation."Honestly, she was heartless, but she never hesitated when it came to money.Since she was paying, I wasn't exactly in the mood to argue about her slicing off a piece of my skin.Not that I was obsessed with money or anything, but the original Tyrell's family had fallen from grace. They went from rich elites to broke overnight. His wallet was more barren than a desert.After transferring the money, Victoria went straight to the next ward to be with Luke.Staring at my account balance, I instantly felt alive again. I decided to use the compensation to discharge myself from the hospital and start enjoying life.As I passed by Luke's ward, I saw Victoria feeding him soup. That display of tenderness and consideration was a side of her Tyrell had never seen.Yeah, of co

Chapter 3

Eliza was the vicious female supporting character of this novel. Having harbored a one-sided crush on the male lead, Luke, for years, she was obsessed with claiming him for herself.Later on, she even tried to team up with Tyrell to break up Victoria and Luke. Her ending in the book? Predictably miserable.I wasn't looking for trouble, so I pretended I didn't see her."Tyrell," Eliza called out to me.I blinked. "Yeah?"She asked, "Are you and Victoria really getting divorced? I thought you loved her."Loved her? Victoria cheated so boldly, and I wasn't the same pathetic cuckold the original Tyrell was."Of course, I love her," I replied.But I loved money more.Two billion dollars for a divorce? That kind of deal didn't fall into your lap twice. Only an idiot would stay chained to Victoria.I pressed a hand to my chest, putting on a pained expression. "But she doesn't love me. I have no choice. I'll let her go."Eliza shot me a long look.After all, everyone knew that Vict

Chapter 4

Three months later, I was enjoying a carefree vacation in Mordavia. The place was packed with gorgeous women, and I honestly didn't know where to look first.Suddenly, I noticed a woman who stood out for all the wrong reasons. While everyone else had curves in all the right places, she looked almost completely flat.I squinted.It was actually Eliza.I tried to run, but it was already too late. She had spotted me too. She walked right up to me and asked, "Tyrell, you're not dead?"I wasn't in the mood for old connections, so I brushed her off, saying, "I was lucky."The explosion had hurt me, but my injury wasn't serious. Once I recovered, I came straight here to relax.Eliza told me that everyone thought I had died in the explosion, but Victoria didn't believe it. She had gone mad searching everywhere for me, acting completely out of character."Looks like she actually cares about you. Do you want to go back?"That surprised me.Wasn't Victoria supposed to be living her best

Chapter 5

A hint of admiration entered my gaze as I stared at Eliza.Though we had both transmigrated, she had clearly been a lot luckier than me. She had woken up a rich woman, so she didn't even need to work hard to earn money.It hadn't been easy for me to get these two billion dollars, almost costing me my life, so it was only natural that I wanted to be careful how I spent that money.After spending more than half a year visiting most of the world's countries, I decided I had seen enough. It was time to focus on new ventures, such as starting up my own company.Eliza suggested, "I have a company that I can hand over to you to manage. Any profits will go to you, while any losses will be on me."I was instantly delighted to receive such a wonderful offer, but then something suddenly occurred to me, and I quailed."But I don't have any experience! I've only ever been a delivery guy!"Eliza patted her chest confidently. "I can teach you the ropes."She had transmigrated here a few years

Chapter 6

I waved a hand at Victoria. "We're already divorced, and there's nothing tying us together anymore. I'm not going back, so you can just toss all those things away."Victoria's eyes were bright as she said in an almost desperate tone, "Tyrell, is there really no chance for us anymore?"Before I could answer, Luke came over."Vicky."He was dressed in a smart suit, which seemed to change the way he carried himself. There was a sort of arrogant air about him now, as though he thought himself superior to everyone else. The look he shot me was filled with disdain as he wrapped an arm around Victoria's waist. "Mr. Lane is waiting over there for us."Though conflicted, Victoria still left with Luke.When Eliza noticed me staring thoughtfully at Victoria's retreating figure, she nudged me and asked, "Don't tell me you're gaining an interest in her?"There was no denying that Victoria truly was a one of a kind beauty, and it was indeed a rare sight to see her humbling herself and beggi

I coughed guiltily before replying, "Yes, well, the old Tyrell is dead. He died in that explosion months ago. Now, I've been reborn."I patted myself on the back for the double entendre.Victoria assumed that I had said that only because she had thoroughly hurt my feelings.However, before she could speak up, Eliza's bleary voice drifted over from behind me."Just who is it? It's so early in the morning."Following that, she came over and said in a coquettish tone, "Ty, I wanna have a cream cheese bagel and a latte for breakfast."What was wrong with her? She normally didn't speak like that.Last night, we had been busy discussing the company's projects till two in the morning. Since it was so late, Eliza decided to stay over and sleep at my house.Eliza shifted in such a way that Victoria couldn't see her and shot me a pointed look. Instantly understanding what she was up to, I snaked a hand around her waist and answered with a smile, "Alright, I'll go get it for you."Then

Chapter 8

It turned out that Victoria had gotten into a car accident earlier that day. Her leg was broken, so she was now hospitalized."You should be calling Luke. As your ex-husband, it isn't appropriate for me to visit you."There was a moment of silence from the other end of the line."Even if we're divorced, we can still be friends. Tyrell, I can't stomach anything else right now. All I want to eat is your ham and cheese omelette."Why was she doing this? In the past, every time Tyrell painstakingly whipped up a feast for her, she wouldn't even bother taking a bite. Now that she had lost that, she wanted it more than anything."I don't know how to cook, and I'm not your housekeeper either."Technically, I wasn't lying. The person adept at cooking was Tyrell, not me. Although a ham and cheese omelette wasn't a difficult dish to make, that didn't mean that I was willing to learn it for her.The sound of Victoria's suppressed sobbing reached my ears.She was crying again? With the way
