Husband and the Secretary Chapter 1 The Funeral
Time passed slowly as I sat in the mourning hall. As I recalled every moment between my husband, Anthony Brosnan, and me over the past few years, I felt that it was laughable.After handling the funeral arrangements, I made a phone call. A sneer came from the other end of the line. "Shirley, why are you calling me now? Don't tell me you want to catch up with me and tell me all about your happy life?""I regret it. I regret marrying him. Alicia, my mom passed away. I…""Where are you? I'm coming right now!"Alicia Coolev was my best friend. In the past, she tried to hook me up with her cousin. However, I was a fool at that time and had insisted on marrying Anthony instead.Back then, she was furious by my decision and said, "Shirley, don't come crying to me if you're ever unhappy in the future!"At the time, I was blissfully in love with Anthony. Who would have thought that I would surrender in defeat after three years?When Alicia saw me, I was sitting dejectedly at the entrance

On the other hand, Yunice looked devastated as she said, "Shirley, you can't curse your own mother like that even if you hate me. How heartbroken she must be!""She was indeed heartbroken. After all, she had to deal with you two scumbags!" In a fit of rage, I lunged at Anthony and said, "If you don't divorce me, I'll march into your company while carrying my mother's portrait tomorrow. Let's see who'll be more humiliated then!"Anthony was enraged and shoved me hard. I slammed against the corner of a table and doubled over in pain. The next moment, a sharp cramp seized my stomach, and I collapsed to the floor, feeling something warm and wet spreading beneath me.Anthony was shocked. "You…""It's your child, Anthony. How can you be so heartless?" Staring at the blood pooling around me, I felt as if something had been drained from my body.Anthony's expression softened slightly. Just as he knelt and was about to check on me, Yunice covered her mouth and glared at me with hatred. The
Husband and the Secretary Chapter 3 Take Back What's Mine
I was determined to make their lives as miserable as mine.There were surveillance cameras around the house, and it had a clear recording of Anthony pushing me and causing my miscarriage.When Anthony was dragged away by the police in front of the entire staff during a company meeting, his face was grim.Anthony being arrested still didn't satisfy Alicia. She told me, "That scumbag deserves to be taught a hard lesson. Don't worry, I won't let him off."I raised my eyebrows and said, "I'll make sure he regrets it."After a week in the hospital, I returned to work. Alicia couldn't stop me, so she found a housekeeper for me. I didn't refuse and moved to another house. Then, I listed the previous house for sale through an agent. After that, I filed for divorce. Though Anthony tried to explain away the situation as just a marital disagreement and was released, his arrest record was enough evidence for my case.When Anthony found out I was suing for divorce, he called me in a fit of

Sadly, the hospital called to tell me that Anthony wasn't dead and was just in shock."Ms. Anderson, do you have the time to come over and sign a few medical bills?""No, I don't. Have Anthony sign them himself. I'm not his only family." There was no way I would sign the papers for him when he claimed that Yunice was the love of his life.After hanging up, I glanced at Brian across from me. Ever since the meeting, he had been helping me sort through some company matters. I was incredibly grateful for everything he had done for the past few days."Thank you. Without your help today, I wouldn't have been able to handle those people.""Don't worry. To them, it's all about interests. As long as you're valuable and making money, they won't sideline you. After all, they need you to keep their money going." Brian paused for a moment before continuing, "You need to take care of yourself too. It's just one man. There are plenty more out there. You can always replace him if things don't wor

I cursed him with all my might, and Anthony's face grew paler with every word I spat at him. I pulled out my phone and shoved it in his face, displaying the provocative messages and videos Yunice had sent me before."Look at this! My mom was thinking of you even on her deathbed. She was worried about your health and told me to prepare medicine for you. However, what we heard instead was Yunice bragging about how you cooked for her! You cook for her, but you have never washed a single dish at our house! "How dare you tell me you knew nothing now? That's just disgusting! You knew everything, but you pretend otherwise. You knew Yunice was provoking me, and you were the one who gave her the confidence to do so!" I took a deep breath and looked him straight in the eyes. "I won't say any more. We both share the blame for what's happened between us. It's time to end this. Stop deceiving yourself. I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore."Anthony stumbled back a few steps, una
Husband and the Secretary Chapter 6 Watch Your Man
After Brian left, I took a shower. Once I was done, I stood by the window and glanced down. Anthony was still there, standing by the front of his car and smoking. He didn't dare come up.I quietly snapped a photo of him and sent it to Yunice. 'You're quite useless. Your man is standing outside my window and refusing to get a divorce. What are you going to do about it?'When Yunice got my text, she flew into a rage. Then, I watched from my window as Anthony answered a phone call. After hesitating for a long time, he eventually drove away.I couldn't help but laugh.Two hours later, Yunice sent me a picture of Anthony fast asleep in her bed, clearly taken in her home.'How about that? I've won again. I told you before that Anthony would never choose you. If it weren't for you and your family, he wouldn't have suffered like this!''Yeah, right. He is suffering but is still refusing to sign the divorce papers. Do you have a way to make him sign? I don't want him anymore.'My words s

Anthony's scandal exploded across the media, with journalists and mainstream outlets reporting on his affair. Soon, Yunice was dragged into the spotlight, too."I know that woman! Isn't she the infamous social climber? She always pretended to be some poor student and slept around with men.""Yeah. Back in college, she slept with many men. I can't believe she got together with such a fool after graduation!""She probably had countless abortions. Anthony must've been desperate to sleep with her.""Anthony dumped his wife for her. I heard that his wife's mom died because of them. Well, karma's arrived.""He's a typical gold digger! He thought he had great potential, but he's nothing without his wife's family's support. It's too late for him now."On the day we proceeded with the divorce, Anthony looked utterly defeated. He stared at me and scowled. "Shirley, you did this to punish me. Are you happy now?"I shook my head and replied, "Neither of us won. I lost my mother, and you've
