April Fool's: His Affair Was No Joke のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 9

An intense wave of nausea made me retch uncontrollably. I hurriedly called my husband, Jayson Kaiser, back, but he didn't pick up until the third time.I could hear the unmistakable sound of heavy, pleasured breathing in the background as he spoke."Do you have any questions about the terms of the divorce agreement, Sherry?"I quickly explained, "I didn't cheat on you. I just thought that—"Jayson cut me off with a loud snicker. "You're only saying that now because you want to clear your name and make me leave with nothing, aren't you? I'm telling you, Sherry Abbott, that it's not realistic at all."I own a massive business empire. If we really went to court, you wouldn't stand a chance against me. I've already left you five properties in the agreement. Consider it a thank-you for helping me build the business."I had been with Jayson since I was 18, helping him start his business from scratch and watching his company grow into a Million Global 500 company.But in the end, he wa

I chuckled."You've been seeing each other for so long, and you expect me to believe you that yesterday was your first time sleeping together?"Jayson smirked in contempt. "That's because Amy values her chastity. She insisted on dating for a full year before giving it to me. Like I said, she's not a slut like you."I steadied myself, stood up, and pointed at them accusingly. "Then, what about the intimacy we both shared as husband and wife over the past years?"He quit his gentlemanly act and laid out all his cards on the table. "It just means I was using you as a tool to vent since I couldn't sleep with Amy. You already know the answer, don't you? What's the point of asking me for it again? You're just humiliating yourself."I felt a sharp cramping in my lower abdomen, and I gagged again. The taste of the latte on my face turned extremely bitter as I said self-deprecatingly, "So, the nightgown and the tumbler—you only gave them to me because Amelia didn't want them, right?"He d

Once the observation period was over, I was discharged from the hospital and prepared to go back to the villa, pack my bags, and move out.But before I could even step through the door, I caught sight of our wedding portrait sitting outside at the curb, being discarded like it was trash.I felt a sharp pang in my heart when I saw Jayson's beaming smile in the photo. But still, things had changed, and our relationship was unsalvageable now. It was just as well that it was now being thrown out.After keying in the passcode to the lock and entering the villa, I heard the unmistakable, sordid, lewd sounds of a man and a woman panting in the bedroom.I glanced around the living room and saw that every photo of Jayson and me had already been removed. It was clear that he was in a great hurry to break every tie he had with me.As the filthy sounds continued playing in the background, I opened my suitcase and began packing my things. However, when I went to retrieve my parents' memorial p

At exactly 8:00 am on the 8th of the following month, I arrived at the courthouse entrance right on time.Jayson was wearing a crisp white shirt, with Amelia standing on his right, dressed in a loose-fitting white maxi dress. He was momentarily stunned when he saw me, as though he hadn't expected me to be dressed so elegantly.He walked straight into the courthouse and spoke to me in a commanding tone, "Let's get the divorce done quickly."The moment I stepped into the building, tears involuntarily welled up in my eyes and rolled down my cheeks.The last time I'd done paperwork like this with him was seven years ago. At that time, Jayson had eagerly pulled me inside while exclaiming in excitement, "Sherry! Oh my god, Sherry, are we getting married for real? Are we really getting married?"Oh my god, I'm so happy! It still feels so unreal to me! Am I dreaming? Are you sure I'm not dreaming? Sherry!"Back then, I'd only just smiled and chuckled along happily with him, gently teasin

"No," I told Jayson firmly. "Why didn't you think that something like this would happen the moment you blocked me and my number on every platform?"Jayson frowned harder. "Weren't you the one who blocked me?"He turned and saw Amelia walking out of the courthouse. He marched up to her at once and delivered her a tight slap across the face."You fucking bitch! How many times have you lied to me?"Amelia burst into tears and screamed, "Dr. Kaiser, I only lied to you because I loved you too much! I faked the medical records because I wanted to get pregnant with your baby during that time! I wanted you to get your divorce papers without a hitch! Everything I did was out of love for you!"Jayson laughed like he'd just lost his mind. He wanted nothing more than to punch himself to death for being such an idiot.He suddenly spun around and pulled me into his arms, begging fervently, "Sherry, please, we were together for ten years. Can't you please give me a chance to make things up to y
