Behind Closed Doors Chapter 3
It was already past midnight when I returned to the hotel. Gazing out at the glittering skyline of the city's central business district, I realized I did not want to go back to where Max was.Without hesitation, I grabbed my phone and rescheduled my flight—to a private island this time.After treating myself to a spa session, I fell into a peaceful sleep. Max had not tried to contact me all night.The next morning at the airport, my phone started buzzing frantically. I glanced at it once and declined the call, but he kept calling until I finally put my phone on silent.Before long, his messages flood in.[Max: Suri, what game are you playing now? Hide and seek?][Max: You're being so childish!][Max: Act your age—these young girl games won't make me want you; they'll just make me sick.][Max: Stop trying to act cute. It's disgusting, got it?] He hurled accusations at me from his high horse, yet he did not mention a word about leaving with another woman or staying out all nigh

When I returned home after a week away, I discovered Max had not been home at all. Instead, Coco showed up at my door, carrying Max's Louis Vuitton suitcase with a triumphant smirk.She said, "Suri, Mr. Davis has been so busy. He almost fainted at the office, and I—"I looked at her, saying, "So he fainted at the office?"Coco smiled sweetly as she replied, "No, Mr. Davis is resting at my place. I'm just here to get his clothes."I did not let her step in. Instead, I gestured for the housekeeper to pack Max's clothes while keeping Coco outside. From tailored suits to loungewear, from spring to winter pieces—everything went into the suitcase until it was too heavy for her to carry.Even so, she was not giving up. Struggling under the weight, she suddenly stopped in her tracks and marched back toward me with a gleaming smile."Suri, you've known Mr. Davis for so long. He always bites me when he gets intimate with me. Look at this—why does he do that?"She tilted her head, clearly

Already dizzy, Max's shaking made it worse. Still, I maintained my composure and replied calmly, "Her post just happened to appear on my feed. Is that a problem?"Max's anger intensified as he violently swept everything off the coffee table. The housekeepers stood frozen, having never seen him this enraged before."Do you even realize what you've done? Because you liked that video, Coco was so scared she almost got hit by a car! Why are you so fixated on competing with some young girl? Your possessiveness is terrifying, Suri."I sat up, staring at the man who once seemed like my protector. Instead, he looked like a fool, and his absurd accusations made me laugh.I shouted back, "Are you even listening to yourself, Max? My husband publicly shows off his relationship with another woman, posting their date on social media!"I merely liked the post. Why can't I? She's a homewrecker flaunting her affair, and if she's scared or gets hurt, that's on her, not me."Max raised his hand to

I summoned all my strength to stand up from bed and hurled the vase from the nightstand. Without hesitation, I threw it at Max's feet.I spat, "She just threatened to end herself just to scare you, and you're losing your mind over it. I'm literally passing out sick, yet you couldn't care less. Your bags were already sent to her place—so don't pretend this is still your home."I continued, "She can't handle me liking her post? Here's a reminder: she needs thicker skin to be a homewrecker."Max's body tensed at the word 'homewrecker'. "What did you say? Don't you dare slander her!"I grabbed another vase and stepped closer. "What else would you call her? Should we discuss what that bedroom in your office is for? Or the stains on the curtains?"My voice was ice cold as I growled, "I tried to save your dignity, but you're throwing it away yourself!"Before Max could argue, I smashed the second vase at his feet. "Get out! Just looking at your face makes me sick!"As if on cue, my sto

The shock on Max's face lasted only a second before turning into a mocking smile. "Playing hard to get now, Suri? You'd never divorce me. You wouldn't throw away everything you worked so hard to build."So he knew. He knew I had invested everything in our marriage and was confident I would not leave. He thought he had me all figured out, but the truth was, I had misjudged him."I'm not as weak as you think, Max. I'll be better off without you," I said coldly. "Once we're divorced, your little assistant won't be a homewrecker anymore. She can officially be your partner."As I turned to leave, Max panicked and grabbed me from behind, but I shoved him away violently."Are you crazy? Keep your hands off me!" I snapped, wincing as the pain in my abdomen made me break into a cold sweat."Suri, be honest. Is there someone else? Is that why you want a divorce? You wouldn't actually leave me, would you?" His voice cracked slightly.When I tried to leave, Max lunged for me at the entrance,

That evening, I returned home, and surprisingly, so did Max. He brought an elaborate container of home-cooked comfort food."I made all of this myself. It's everything you love," he said, picking up a bowl of soup as the housekeeper handed him utensils.Leaning back on the couch, I watched as Max brought the bowl to me. He even blew on it to cool it down. "Drink this, it's good for you," he urged softly.I glanced at it dismissively. "Get it away from me. It's disgusting."Max's chest heaved, but he held back his anger and tried to embrace me. "Suri, I only love you. Why won't you believe me? The divorce threat was just to scare me, right? You wouldn't be so cruel."I immediately pulled away. "Mr. Davis, show some self-respect. Stop being so pathetic."Max contained his anger again as I casually flipped through a magazine. "Unless... you drown Coco and tell her you don't love her to her face. Then I might forgive you.""You're insane!" Max's facade finally cracked. The devoted h

To celebrate my newfound freedom, I chose a private island getaway. While scrolling through social media, I saw Coco flaunting her relationship with Max, who promoted her to executive assistant. With that, she sat pretty as the queen of his company, just beneath him in authority.Coco reveled in her new power, but it quickly went to her head. On my second day of vacation, several longtime employees called me in tears. Apparently, Coco was targeting anyone who had been close to me, trying to force them out without severance.She was truly Max's loyal henchwoman, squeezing every penny for him.As I listened to their complaints, an idea struck me. These employees had been there since the beginning; they were the foundation of the company. Coco did not understand their value, but I did.I knew how hard they worked and how much they loved what they did. The situation left them heartbroken. Moreover, Max did not care about Coco's antics, leaving everything to rot.If they believed in me

Despite being a new company, my business grew steadily. Many of Max's employees flocked to join me, tired of sitting idle on a sinking ship. Without business prospects or decent pay at his company, the choice was clear for them.My company was the opposite: fast-growing, vibrant, and even reaching international markets. The day we secured our first overseas contract, I gave everyone cash bonuses, hosted a company dinner, and declared the next day off.During the celebration dinner, Max's call interrupted my evening.

Coco smirked at me from behind Max while he stood frozen, creating an unbearably tense atmosphere. However, I was not about to let these two get away with their betrayal."Was this your plan? Booking separate hotels just to give you two alone-time together?" I asked.The moment those words left my mouth, Coco collapsed to her knees in dramatic tears, clutching Max's pants leg. "No, that's not true at all..." she sobbed.Max quickly helped her up and snapped, "Suri, not everyone is as cynical as you! She's not manipulative like that."It was almost funny how he still defended her instead of his lawful wife. "Stop with all this jealous nonsense. You're too old for this—grow up!"I chose Coco as my assistant. Is it because she's younger and prettier than you? Why are you being so toxic about this?"Max was actively insulting me to protect Coco.Meanwhile, Coco leaned into Max's embrace. "Mr. Davis, please stop. Suri must just be having a bad day. I don't blame her..."The irony wa
