Chapter 1

After the innocently sweet girl, Sylvia Brown, followed Jason into the bedroom, I sat alone on the living room sofa and listened to the sensual sounds from behind the door all night.At dawn, when the skies were just starting to light up, Jason came out of the room shirtless. The smell of intimacy slipped through the crack in the door, and it made my stomach churn.He stopped in front of me and coldly asked, "Are you satisfied now?"I raised my eyes and looked at him. "I think you're the one who's satisfied."His temper flared. "You keep on finding women for me every day. I don't think you're trying to give me an heir. I think you're just sick of me after a decade of marriage. Fine. I'll give you what you want. I won't touch you again from now on! When Sylvia wakes up, drive her back to her campus."I stood up and forced the tremor to stop in my voice before asking one last question. "Do you love her?""Yes, I love her! But don't worry. You'll always be my wife. Have someone clea

I did not want to argue with Jason anymore, so I took out the second agreement and said, "This one says I'll leave with nothing and only take my personal belongings. Sign it."Jason slammed his hand on the desk and stood up. "Do you want to get away from me that badly?"Suddenly, his phone rang. He answered it, and his face turned pale.The next second, he slapped me before I even knew what was going on, and blood seeped from the corner of my mouth."Didn't I tell you to drive Sylvia back to her campus?! Why did you have to go draft some damn divorce agreement? She got into a car accident! You're so useless! After all these years, what have you ever done besides staying home and living off me? Fine. You want a divorce, right? Let's do it, then!"He signed the agreement that left me with nothing and threw it in my face. "Come with me to the hospital and apologize to Sylvia!"Then, he dragged me out of the office like an animal.-The moment we entered the hospital room, Sylvia s

Later, I walked into Lily's hospital ward like a walking corpse. I started crying as I looked at her thin face.Our parents had died young. Lily, who was three years younger than me, was the only family I had left. The first year after Jason founded his company, a wealthy heir assaulted her. I called the police without hesitation, but Jason stopped me.He said the man had promised to invest a huge sum in his company, enough to change its fate. "Even if this goes to court, nothing will happen to him with his family's influence. Lily's reputation will be ruined, too."In the end, I gave in.But Lily broke completely. She jumped from the sixth floor and had been in a coma ever since.Jason had arranged for her to stay in the best hospital, keeping her alive until now. That had always been the responsibility he was supposed to bear. I had never expected him and his mother to use Lily against me.That was because his mother had threatened me with Lily, too."If you tell anyone I'm th

The wife of the rich man sent me an invitation to a charity auction: [My husband is out of the country. Come with me.]I had planned to refuse, but my heart skipped a beat when I saw the list of the lots for auction.The emerald bracelet on it was my family heirloom. I had sold it for 1.2 million so that Jason could start his business. After Jason became successful, I tried to buy it back, but someone else had already bought it.My fists tightened. There was still money left in the account. I had saved somewhere between one and two million dollars over the years.No matter what, I had to get that bracelet back.I did not expect Jason and Sylvia to be there as well. "Clara, I'm moving into the villa tonight. Thank you for taking care of me from now on."Jason ordered me, too. "When we get back, prepare some chicken soup for her."I ignored them and waited anxiously for my family heirloom to appear.When the final lot was revealed, Jason stiffened beside me. Like me, he recognize

Even then, luck was still not on my side.The documents I submitted were all organ transplant consent forms. The recipients were all rich or powerful, and I had seen several of the donors' names online before. They had appeared in the news after being tricked into the northern region of Ambur.The truth was obvious, but there was no solid evidence proving Jason had done any of it.I walked out of the police station in a stupor.The rain had already stopped, but my heart had turned to ash.My phone kept buzzing. I knew it was Jason without even having to look.In the decade I had been married to him, I had no friends except a few wives of wealthy men I had gotten to know for the sake of his career.I walked along the road for more than ten minutes.Suddenly, brakes screeched beside me.A moment later, the window of a black jeep rolled down.A deep voice came from inside. "Get in."I turned and looked at the man strangely, but I did not move. He smiled, showing a row of white

Sylvia continued with her taunting. "If it isn't because Jason still cares about you, do you think I'd be willing to live under the same roof as an old woman like you? Look at yourself. You're ten years older than me, and you're all washed up. If I were a man, I wouldn't want you either. Oh, I almost forgot. He promised me that all of his family's assets will go to the child in my belly and me. The only thing you get to keep is the title of bringing his wife. Hahaha!"I had accidentally put the call on speaker, so Ethan heard every word. He could not hold himself back and slammed his fist against the steering wheel, his eyes full of rage.But I stayed calm and asked one more question. "You were the one behind what happened to Lily, weren't you?""So what? Do you have proof? Do you think I'm scared? A housewife like you has no connections. No one will help you investigate the case. Besides, the baby and I are the most important people in that family now. Do you think they'll blame me

Chapter 7

After graduation, I had originally wanted to find an internship at a design company, but Jason said a fixed salary would not get us far. It would be better to work for ourselves and become entrepreneurs instead.I gave up my dreams for him.I followed him all over the country doing business.We set up street stalls, smuggled goods, and almost got pulled into a pyramid scheme. I did not feel bitter back then, even when the two of us had to eat from the same plate. We still had hope. We still had love.Despite everything, I had to admit that Jason had a mind for business. Soon, he met a few people with some money to spare, and they started a company together. To give him absolute control of the company, I sold the family heirloom my mother had left me and emptied everything I had so he could become the largest shareholder.But now, all that love in the past seemed like a grand illusion.Everything had been a scheme.With the thunder booming and rain pouring outside, I slowly fell

Chapter 8

I ignored the other guests attending the party and walked inside.I made a beeline for Sylvia, who was holding a wineglass. She was wearing a custom-tailored gown, her belly slightly rounded as she paraded her waist and walked toward me. "Clara, why did you come dressed like this? You're not just embarrassing yourself. You're embarrassing Jason, too."I looked at her coldly. "Your belly doesn't look two months pregnant."The smile on her face vanished.The next second, she poured the entire glass of red wine over herself and cried out, "Clara, I know you hate me, but please don't hurt the baby! You can punish me however you want, but this child is Jason's whole life!"At that moment, a stern voice came from behind me. "You barren woman! If anything happens to my precious grandson, I'll make you pay!"It was Jason's mother, Kate. A young, handsome man was supporting her at her side. He looked younger than thirty.I smiled, picked up a glass of wine next to me, and splashed it rig

Chapter 9

Suddenly, a group of police officers walked in and moved to handcuff Sylvia, but Jason still shielded her. "Wait! You can't arrest her! She's pregnant! Clara, withdraw the case right now. Do you still want to be my wife or not?"I smiled as I took out two copies of certificates from my bag and threw them onto the floor. "I'm not your wife anymore. We're divorced!"Jason was stunned. "You did it for real?! Fine, even if we're divorced, you can't let my child be born in prison for the sake of all our years together, can you?"Hearing that, I laughed even louder. "You're still protecting her even now? The child in her belly isn't even yours, you idiot! What woman starts showing at only two months? Her belly shows that she's at least three months pregnant!"Jason still did not believe me. "You're just jealous because I treat her better, so you're making things up! You're the one who pushed me into another woman's bed. What are you trying to do now?""Fine, let me tell you everything t
