My Wife's New Assistant Forgot She's Married のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 9

The following day, I was woken up by an urgent call. "There's been a major issue, Mr. Quinlan! Ms. Lister inexplicably transferred all of her shares to Colin, so the board members are extremely upset about it!"I froze for a moment before instinctively tapping open the work group chat, where it had already erupted into chaos."Is this for real? Is Ms. Lister really in a relationship with Colin?""Do you even have to ask? It's not like you guys don't know about Ms. Lister's special situation. Have you ever seen her get this physically close with anyone before? She literally gave Colin her shares! If that ain't love, I don't know what is!""Where does that leave Mr. Quinlan, then? I could've sworn they were actually a thing!""Mr. Quinlan has always been a hopeless simp for Ms. Lister!"I couldn't help but laugh in sheer disbelief when I read that message. Mackenzie had given me several conditions before joining the company, with one of them being that our status as a married cou

Mackenzie had finally backed off, but Colin came knocking at my place early that morning. He used the same old trick and got on his knees right outside my front door. "You can't just let them fire me, Thomas! You know how tough it is for me to land a good job without a proper degree or skills! "I saw that you were slammed with work and couldn't take care of Mackenzie, so I just wanted to help you out. I did it for your marriage, Thomas! I swear nothing went down between us!"I sat on the couch and slowly took a sip of coffee. "I'll believe nothing happened between you two if you go ram yourself dead right here in front of me." Colin's expression shifted slightly. He hesitated for a moment before he abruptly rose to his feet, as if he had made up his mind. He rushed toward the stone pillar at the entryway, yet with only a few inches to spare, he chickened out.He sank to the floor as his knees buckled, crying uncontrollably. "Do you really have to destroy me completely, Thomas?

Mackenzie went off the grid for over two weeks just to show me the gravity of my mistake. She had at least kept her social media updated before, so I always knew what she was doing. But this time, even her best friends didn't know her whereabouts.I knew she was giving me the cold shoulder to get me to back down and apologize, but without her around, the only things I felt were a long-lost freedom and peace.Just when I thought this quiet streak would keep going, I walked through the door after work one day and found Mackenzie sprawled out on the couch. She barely cast a glance my way, then pointed to the fruit sitting on the table. "Go wash an apple for me," she ordered.I smiled faintly and said, "Have you lost your mind? We've got nothing to say to each other unless it's about the divorce."Mackenzie clearly hadn't expected my attitude to remain so unyielding after all this time. She bolted upright from the couch, her expression instantly hardening. "Haven't you had enough

Mackenzie was dead set against divorcing me, so she actually dragged her parents all the way over from her hometown, which was thousands of miles away.I saw the three of them sitting imposingly on the couch the moment I stepped through the door, clearly waiting to chew me out.Mackenzie's father immediately started blaming me. "I believed you were an honest person, which was why I allowed my daughter to marry you, Thomas. I never expected that just a few years later, you would cheat on her. I clearly misjudged you."Mackenzie just sat there putting on a show with her tears, refusing to pay any attention to me.They were hoping to catch me feeling guilty, but I calmly took out my phone and said, "You're trespassing on private property. I can report this to the police at any time."Their expressions instantly hardened, clearly not expecting me to treat them so coldly.Mackenzie's mother broke her silence, visibly agitated. "H-How can you say that? We're in Mackenzie's house! How c
