Life-Saving Money Blocked, Divorce Made You Cry
After my husband topped the wealth rankings, he hired his first love as his personal housekeeper at a high salary.
“Quincy, you hail from humble beginnings. I don’t want you embarrassing me in high society, so I specifically brought in Vivian to teach you the rules. From now on, everything you do must be reported to her for approval.”
From that moment on, in public, I was the glamorous Mrs. Lane.
However, behind closed doors, to even enjoy simple marital moments with my husband I had to write a thousand-word application seeking Vivian’s approval.
Then, my adoptive father had a heart attack. I dropped to my knees, begging her to transfer me five hundred thousand dollars.
She laughed coldly. “What kind of surgery costs half a million? Stop making excuses to pad your family’s finances.”
“This isn’t a small sum. Write a 10,000-word application, and this time it’s denied.”
Rage coursed through me, my body trembling uncontrollably as I spun toward Tyler and fell to my knees, begging him to save my father’s life.
There wasn’t even a flicker of emotion on his face. “Vivian did nothing wrong. I know you’re still clinging to your old poor habits even after getting rich, but my money doesn’t grow on trees.”
“This time, your father’s medical treatment will be put on hold as a lesson. Next time, don’t blame me if he’s kicked out of the VIP ward.”
In the end, my adoptive father died on the operating table due to the delay in treatment.
Completely disheartened, I finally asked Tyler for a divorce.
