Chapter 1 The Groom Who Lost to the Dead

The wedding was not canceled over this little incident. Instead, it went ahead with even more fanfare than planned—only the groom was no longer me.I took off my wedding ring and threw it at Cynthia Brooke's feet, sincerely wishing her well in her unwavering devotion to her childhood sweetheart. If they wanted to make up for lost time, I would gladly step aside and let them have their funeral wedding."What did you mean by that?" Cynthia demanded, her eyes swollen and bloodshot. She had cried for three whole days after the death of her childhood sweetheart, Grant Lincoln.I had originally intended to call off the wedding, but Cynthia insisted that I did not. The wedding would go ahead as planned. And for this wedding, I had spared no effort. I had personally designed her wedding gown over the course of an entire month, only for her to walk into the ceremony dressed in mourning clothes and humiliate me in front of everyone."Can't you tell? I'm giving the wedding to you two so you c

Chapter 2 The Divorce She Signed Away

But her hands were clenched tightly, as though my words had truly infuriated her. "Apologize to my friends!""Exactly! That was just plain rude. He must apologize to us!" Her friends chimed in, their voices growing harsher as they pressured me from all sides.Cynthia shouted the order at me again, her tone leaving no room for refusal. She was stubbornly refusing to back down, as though saying no would be enough to make her turn against me completely.But she was wrong.I no longer loved her, so naturally, I no longer cared about obeying her.She could concern herself with even her friends' pride, yet she could not spare a thought for how humiliated and miserable I felt at that moment. So what was the point of continuing to chase after a woman like her? I would simply be humiliating myself again."Was I really rude? When you were happily accepting the handbags, clothes, and lipsticks I bought you, why didn't you think I was being rude then? Why didn't you ask your Grant to buy the

Chapter 3 The Fool Finally Woke Up

Cynthia curled her lips into a mocking smile and lazily leaned back against the sofa. "By tomorrow at the latest, he'll show up with a bouquet of roses. Maybe a limited-edition piece of jewelry, too. Then, he'll wag his tail like a dog, doing everything he can to win me over. The last time we fought, he came running back to pick me up less than three hours later."I heard every word Cynthia said, for her best friend had called me on WhatsApp the moment Cynthia started talking.Her friend was no better, really. She was always encouraging Cynthia to see Grant, all because she held a grudge against me for refusing to introduce her to a scion.After hearing Cynthia speak with such absolute certainty, I sneered inwardly. 'She's got quite the confidence, believing that I'd go crawling back to her and apologize. If she thinks I'd fall apart without her… Bitch!"…After Cynthia signed the divorce agreement, she handed it back to my lawyer and told him to take it away."Take it back to hi

Chapter 4 The Man Who Was Supposed to Be Dead

How ironic. The fact that I had loved her so deeply and faithfully had somehow become a fault in her eyes. I regretted every sacrifice I had made for her over all those years. She had never once returned my love.So, this was where being a pathetic lovesick fool ultimately got me—hurt until there was nothing left to break."Cynthia, our marriage is already over. From now on, you go your way, and I'll go mine. Since you're so disgusted by everything of mine, I've already taken it all back. If you need someone else to pick up your bills from now on, you'll have to find yourself another sucker…"Before I could finish, Cynthia hung up.I stared at my phone, confused. 'This isn't like her. I've already had her cards suspended. How is she supposed to pay for anything now? Whatever. Why should I care? We're divorced anyway. Her problems are no longer mine now.'I put down my phone and went into the bathroom for a shower. …When I came back out, I felt completely refreshed. For the fir

Chapter 5 Cutting Them All Off

It was Grant calling. Apparently I still had his number saved.I answered, puzzled, and immediately heard the mocking tone in his voice. "I'm sure you've already seen Cynthia's post, so I might as well tell you the truth. I faked my death. Cynthia knew about it too. The whole point was to force you into divorcing her so you'd have to give her half your assets."Oh, and thanks for taking care of her for me all these years. You spoiled her rotten. You should've seen how seductive she was when she begged for me. She's a slut, and you're an idiot. Honestly, you two are pretty well matched."My grip tightened around the phone until my knuckles turned white. I pressed my lips together and said nothing while Grant laughed mockingly.It turned out Cynthia had staged this entire performance just to force me into divorcing her. No wonder she had shown up to our wedding in mourning clothes, then signed the divorce papers without the slightest hesitation. She had never given me even the tinies

Chapter 6 The Parasites Arrive

Cynthia's mother in particular looked like a venomous snake. The hatred in her eyes was so intense that she looked as though she wanted to tear me to pieces.When I saw those two parasites, I turned grim, for I knew exactly why they had come.The conference room fell into deathly silence. The employees all held their breath, not daring to make a sound. They all knew how much I had indulged Cynthia's parents in the past. I had even let her brother into the company through connections and special treatment.That man clearly did not have what it took to be a designer, yet he had forced his way into the position anyway. Once, while I was away on a business trip, he had used his status as the CEO's brother-in-law to fire an actual designer and take over the job himself.He had turned my company upside down, leaving the employees furious and constantly complaining. Eventually, I could not take it anymore and fired him, only for Cynthia to storm into my office and demand an explanation.

Chapter 7 No More Mercy

I quickly caught her wrist and forcefully shoved her away."You're absolutely insane! How can you call the cops on my brother? Fuck you!""What? Cynthia, what happened?"Cynthia gave her mother the full story, and then the two immediately hurled insults at me. But I ignored every word and simply looked at the bunch of lunatics in front of me.I honestly could not understand what I had been thinking back then. How had I ever fallen in love with a woman like her?But I needed to resolve this quickly. I could not let them damage the company's reputation. If they insisted I had gone crazy and caused all this trouble, I would show them exactly what crazy looked like."Cynthia, I never wanted to make things this ugly. I even wanted to leave you some dignity. But you kept digging your own grave and pushing me further and further. Your brother did a hit-and-run and tried to make me take the blame for him. You cheated on me, yet you claimed I'd betrayed you first. Well, I'll be a fool if

Chapter 8 Caught Red-Handed

She stared at me with undisguised contempt. "Of course I'm going to find him. Just wait and see. Grant and I are going to live happily ever after!"I had not wanted to keep arguing with Cynthia either, but her arrogance made me decide to help her see just how much her so-called true love was really worth."You said Grant loved you more than anything?""That's right!""Come with me. Tell Grant that you walked away from the marriage with nothing—not even a marital home—and see if he still loves you afterward."I grabbed my car keys and walked out first. Although Cynthia looked confused, she still followed me.The sports car roared to life. Soon we were speeding toward our destination, leaving a trail of dust behind us.Neither of us said a word the entire journey. It was pin-drop silence.After a while, Cynthia's ringtone shattered the silence. It was Grant calling.Her expression softened immediately, and her voice grew sweet and gentle. "Grant, did you miss me—what? You're goi

Chapter 9 Too Late to Regret

Cynthia had been pushed over the edge by what she had just witnessed. She glared viciously at the wealthy woman. "Shut up! You have no right to run your mouth here, you fat pig!"The scene felt eerily familiar.A month ago, Cynthia and Grant had treated me exactly the same way. Now the tables had turned, and it was finally her turn to experience what it felt like to be humiliated and discarded.So instead of going inside to help her, I simply remained outside, watching the two of them tear each other apart.The moment Grant heard Cynthia call the woman in his arms a "fat pig," he released the woman, walked over to Cynthia, grabbed her by the hair, and yanked her up before striking her hard across the face again."You only have your incompetence to blame. I only stayed with you for so long because I thought you'd get half of your husband's fortune once you divorced him. But you're an idiot who walked away with nothing! What use do I have for you then?"Did you really think you wer

Chapter 10 One Last Goodbye

"Look, he even hit me!" Cynthia turned her injured face toward me, deliberately showing me her wounds.But I remained completely unmoved. I simply stared at her before stepping back with Jocelyn, clearly disgusted. "Ms. Brooke, we're already divorced. There's nothing between us anymore. Whatever difficulties you have from now on, please deal with them with someone else. They have nothing to do with me."Cynthia's body stiffened.Only then did she notice that I was holding Jocelyn's hand. She finally realized that when I said I no longer loved her, I had meant every word.Panicking, she reached out as though she wanted to touch me, but I pulled a stern face and snapped at her. "Please show some respect, ma'am. I already have a girlfriend. Are you trying to make yourself a mistress?"I let out a cold laugh.Cynthia's face had gone completely pale. Her hair was disheveled, and there were still wounds on her face. She had long since lost the radiance she once possessed. Without my pa
