All Chapters of Regrets Behind a Tycoon Marriage: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“Karina, security just told me some kids nearby punctured your tire.“The weather alert says a massive storm’s about to hit, and it’ll be almost impossible to get a ride once it starts. Want me to drive you home?”Her assistant, Jenny Marker, pushed open the door, looking indignant.“Kids these days are awful.”Karina Jackson’s pen paused.Tonight was the Foster family dinner, and everyone was expected to be there. No exceptions.After a moment of silence, she picked up her phone, opened her chat with Mark Foster, and sent him a voice message.“Mark, I have a flat tire, and there’s a huge storm coming. Can you come pick me up?”The second she sent it, a reply appeared on the screen.‘Okay.’Karina let out a quiet breath and locked her phone.“Jenny, you can head home. I’m going pretty far, so I’ll just call a ride later.”Jenny nodded, reminded her to be careful, then left.Karina rubbed her sore temples and got to her feet, gazing out the window.They’d been married for

The moment the words left Karina’s mouth, the entire dining room fell silent.Every eye at the table turned toward her.Judy, seated at the head of the table, immediately went cold.Her sharp gaze locked onto Karina, the atmosphere in the room almost suffocating.“Whatever anger you’re carrying, this is not the place to throw a tantrum.”The relatives around the table began murmuring under their breath.Karina knew exactly what they were thinking.In their eyes, marrying into the Foster family was the greatest stroke of luck she could ever have hoped for.She’d seen those looks too many times to care anymore.Through it all, Mark said nothing.Whatever happened to her had never mattered much to him.Karina straightened her back under everyone’s stares and spoke again.“If having another child is my duty as his wife, then I’m clearly not the one he should be having one with.”The room went dead silent.Everyone understood exactly what she meant.Caroline exploded.She sl

Mark boxed Karina in against the wall.As she struggled, the pajamas in her hand slipped to the floor.She looked up and met his icy stare head-on.In seven years of marriage, this was the first time she had ever seen Mark show his emotions so openly.Her heart went cold.When Karina first married into the Foster family, she hadn’t had a penny to her name.The household staff never took her seriously because of her low status in Foster Family.They gave her meals, but little else.At the time, her mother had been seriously ill and hospitalized.Karina hadn’t even had enough money for bus fare to visit her.With no other choice, she’d swallowed her pride and gone to Mark, hoping to borrow some money.Mark had looked thoroughly annoyed.Apparently assuming she was a greedy and despicable woman, he’d simply tossed her a black card.From that day on, he’d made up his mind about her.Whatever she did, he assumed she was after money or some other benefit.When Karina remained

“Mr. Foster hopes that once you accept the property, you’ll settle down and stop causing trouble for the family.”Karina stared out the window, a cold smile tugging at her lips.What gave Mark the right to act so superior?They were married. She had every right to a share of their marital assets.“Mark chose to marry me. No one held a knife to his throat. As his wife, I’m legally entitled to part of what he owns.“I gave birth to his son, and it took a serious toll on my body. Who compensates me for that?“Mark is barely ever home. I’m the one who’s spent all these years taking care of the house day and night. Does none of that have any value? How much has he actually done for his own son or this family?”Her anger rose with every word.“After everything I’ve put into this marriage, I’d be fully justified in asking for half.”Why should everything she’d done be treated like it meant nothing?Yet in Mark’s eyes, anything he gave her was charity.As if she should be eternally

“You’re both shameless homewreckers, always going after other women’s men!”That finally pushed Karina too far.Her eyes turned icy.“Watch your mouth.”She raised her phone, its screen still lit.“I recorded every word you just said.“If you want this to go viral and destroy your reputation, keep talking.“My mother was legally married, and so am I.“Once the truth comes out, everyone will see exactly who the wives were and who the other women were.”Serena’s face went pale.A second later, jealousy and resentment flooded her eyes.If she hadn’t been forced to go abroad all those years ago, Karina never would’ve had the chance to marry Mark.Serena sneered.“Well, I have to admit, Karina Jackson. You’ve surprised me.“You really think you’ve won?“You’re only acting so smug because you’re legally married to him. Don’t tell me you’re actually waiting for Mark to come here and take your side.”She gave a cold laugh.“I’d love to see which one of us he chooses.”With th
