บททั้งหมดของ I Don't Want My Wife Anymore: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

I stood before the lavish wedding venue. My wife Celia Quayle’s wedding photos with her male bodyguard, Mason Johnston, were everywhere. The event was so elaborate that even relatives from both families attended.Even so, she had still tried to tell me it was just a business arrangement. Did she take me for a fool?Even if a business arrangement required a wedding ceremony, why would she choose Mason Johnston, a mere bodyguard, over me, her husband?Celia took my hand and said with a sigh, “Fine. If I don’t explain it clearly for you, you’ll just overthink again.“You know he once risked his life to pull me out of a fire. His hand was badly burned in the process.“His only wish was to have a grand, public wedding. I owe him my life. I can’t just ignore that, can I?”But Mason was not the only bodyguard who rescued her that day. Nor was he the most severely injured. So, why did she not marry all of them?Even if he wanted a grand wedding, why did she have to marry him? He could h

The abusive man was about to slap Celia, but I got in the way. That was how I met her.After a while, that same couple reconciled and filed a complaint against us, causing us to get fired.At the time, I did not know Celia came from a wealthy family. She was just working there to see how working-class people lived. Afraid she might not have enough to eat, I paid for all her meals.She came to my place every day and never minded our messy, cramped living conditions. She even complimented my cooking. On top of that, she was incredibly attentive to Cyrus. She often tutored him in his schoolwork and even became his free language tutor.Soon, we started dating. I discovered her true identity after graduation. I had taken a side job as a server at a wealthy family’s birthday party. I never expected the birthday girl to be Celia.That day, I made a mistake and knocked over a glass. A client had slapped me hard and humiliated me.Everyone kept their distance, but she gathered her dre

Celia’s eyes welled up with tears. She threw the bank card at me as she said furiously, “So, that’s what it was. I wondered why he had been randomly slapping himself out of nowhere. It turns out you’ve been bullying him behind my back this whole time.”I did not bother to explain or argue with her. I just picked up the bank card from the floor and walked away without looking back.Celia raised an eyebrow and wanted to chase after me. Just then, Mason coughed up blood and acted tough, saying, “Celia, I’m just a lowly bodyguard. Don’t let me come between you and your husband. You should just fire me.”Celia’s eyes welled up. She gave him a soft, exasperated punch on his shoulder.“Don’t be ridiculous. You saved my life. If I fired you now, everyone would call me heartless and ungrateful.“Don’t overthink it. Let me get you patched up first.“Don’t worry about Ethan. He’s easy to smooth things over with.”I did not stay to listen to the rest. Instead, I went to the bank and c

She had originally wanted to text me about it. But when she saw the single gray check mark, she had no choice but to ask around.“I’ve been so swamped with work lately that I completely lost track of Cyrus. Do you know what grade Cyrus is? Is he in junior year?”She sighed as she realized she had neglected me for too long.Recalling the good times we once shared, she felt a twinge of regret. She ordered an expensive gift and planned to apologize to me when we met. In her mind, I loved her so much. I would surely forgive her, and we would get back together.She had no choice but to approach a random student to ask about Cyrus.Several students recognized the name when she said Cyrus.He had attended both middle school and high school at that school. Soon, a former classmate recognized Celia.“Are you Cyrus’ sister-in-law?”Celia was overjoyed. As long as someone recognized her, that was good. She quickly responded, “Yes, I am. Can you tell me which class Cyrus is in now? I n

“Celia, I don’t care if other people doubt me. But you can’t.“I’ve never asked you for anything. Please, help me...”Celia was moved, but she still shook her head. “The police already have all the evidence. There’s nothing more I can do for you.”Mason deeply regretted his action.If he had known this would happen, he should never have provoked me in the first place.What he did not know was that every deed left a footprint. My report to the police only accelerated the investigation.Even without the evidence I provided, the police would have found Mason eventually.He had committed a crime, and there was no escaping the law.Mason rolled up his sleeve and revealed the scar on his arm. “Celia, can you help me one last time, for the sake of the fact that I once saved you?“Just this once. After that, you won’t owe me a thing.”Celia stared at the scar, and she lowered her gaze for a moment. “What do you want me to do?”A flash of joy crossed Mason’s face.“I can’t get out
