All Chapters of My Reborn Husband Wanted a Divorce, So I Took His Money and Ran: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“I just can’t bear to lose you, so I’m not getting a divorce.“No matter how much debt you owe, I’ll stay and help you pay it off.”The moment I said that, Julian and Madeline panicked.Madeline clutched Julian’s sleeve, her face turning deathly pale.Julian patted her hand reassuringly, then turned to me.“Vivian, don’t be foolish.“I know you love me, which is why I can’t drag you down with me!“I’ve already told the finance department to transfer the money. It should be in your account any minute now.“Take the money and leave. I’m begging you. I can’t have anything holding me back.”I deliberately gave him a wounded look and stared at him for a full thirty seconds.By the time the cold sweat on his forehead was about to drip, and he could barely withstand the pressure, I finally pretended to be heartbroken and reluctantly nodded.“All right, Julian. Take care of yourself.”With that, I turned around and picked up the suitcase I’d packed long ago.Without looking back,

On the screen, Julian was surrounded by a swarm of reporters outside Calloway Industries, all of them shoving microphones and cameras in his face.He looked completely overwhelmed. His hair was disheveled, and he looked utterly worn out.Security guards were desperately trying to push the reporters back, creating complete chaos outside the building.I couldn’t help but laugh.In my previous life, this overseas project didn’t blow up until a month later.Apparently, withdrawing that $9,000,000 early had completely disrupted Julian’s already fragile cash flow, triggering a butterfly effect.His bankruptcy had come much sooner than expected.Over the next few days, I stayed home and focused on taking care of my pregnancy.I ate well, rested well, and occasionally checked the news about Julian’s company’s impending collapse for entertainment.The situation at Calloway Industries was even worse than I’d imagined.The stalled overseas project had triggered a devastating chain react

“This is tens of millions we’re talking about. If she just gave them a little, these employees could be saved.”Hearing the murmurs from the crowd, Madeline Pierce knew the timing was right.She crawled a few steps forward on her knees and looked up toward my balcony, tears streaming down her face.“Vivian, I know you hate me. Everything that happened is my fault.“I was wrong. I shouldn’t have fallen in love with Julian. I shouldn’t have made you angry.”As she spoke, she slapped herself twice, hard enough to leave a faint red mark.“If you’re willing to sell the house and save the company, I’ll leave for good! I swear I’ll never see Julian again!“Vivian, please, I’m begging you. Please have mercy. I’ll kneel and beg you if I have to…”Her performance as the fragile woman willing to sacrifice herself for love and the greater good was the perfect embodiment of fake innocence.Several kindhearted older women in the crowd couldn’t bear to watch anymore and rushed over to help h

I stood on the steps, watching this pathetic spectacle unfold, and felt thoroughly satisfied.People like them always end up destroying each other.And this was only the beginning.Half a month later, the weather in Riverton had started to turn colder.Julian had become a complete outcast.The longtime employees hadn’t gotten their money. They’d beaten him until his face was swollen and bruised before eventually calling the police.Although the police could only mediate since it was a debt dispute, the whole ordeal still left Julian in a miserable state.Now, his creditors showed up at the rundown basement apartment he rented every day, splashing red paint across the door and throwing dead rats outside.He didn’t even dare leave the apartment. He could only survive by scavenging wilted vegetables from the market and eating people’s leftovers.As for Madeline, who had fled with the money, she’d completely cut Julian off and disappeared without a trace.That morning, I went to

He had even spent a few hundred dollars hiring a second-rate lawyer, who was working through the night in his basement apartment to draft the lawsuit.The next morning, an autumn rain fell over Riverton, leaving the city cold and gloomy.Julian was sitting in his leaky rental apartment, staring at the lawsuit he had just finished drafting. He suddenly burst into laughter.“Vivian, ten million dollars will be mine soon!”Suddenly, there was a deafening crash.The old metal door of the rental apartment was kicked off its hinges.Several armed officers from the Economic Crimes Division, all in uniform, stormed inside, instantly filling the cramped room.“Police! Don’t move!”The smile on Julian’s face froze.The lawsuit slipped from his hands and landed in a puddle on the floor.He scrambled backward in terror, so frightened that he wet himself.“Officer, there must be some mistake! I’m just bankrupt! This is a financial dispute. I haven’t committed any crimes!”The officer le
