Millionaire Hubby and Bargain Girl Chapter 9
"So, where is she now?" I asked, but Calvin had nothing to say.After his accident, it was like Ella had just disappeared. No one heard from her again.I let out a sigh. "I didn't want to fight with you to see who was better. You thought you were on top of the world and could have any girl you wanted. Ella, that beautiful young college girl, was head over heels for you. However, I bet you didn't know how many guys she had been with behind your back."My words hit Calvin like a ton of bricks. He shouted at me, shocked and mad, "No way! You're making stuff up!"I ignored his tantrum. I just felt sad for myself. "Maybe there was a woman who loved you, who would've done anything for you, but you pushed her away."It did not take long for him to see I was telling the truth.Ella took off with his money. She had told me about her and Calvin so I could use it against him. I did not just look out for myself. I made sure everyone knew about his scandal.Calvin was clueless, and everyone

Calvin had cheated on me with a college girl. I did not know her real name. She had only used her username, Lily Rogers, on the account my best friend had shown me.In the picture, she looked as soft and innocent as her name, Lily—a symbol of purity and freshness. She sat with her eyes closed, making a wish in front of her birthday cake.I saw Calvin kissing her forehead, looking so gentle, and I felt sick inside.The picture was taken at a restaurant near a college town just two days ago.That was the day of our seventh wedding anniversary.I had planned a fancy dinner at a Michelin-starred restaurant but ended up alone on the hotel rooftop all night, finishing a super expensive bottle of wine by myself. I did not even touch the fancy appetizer.I waited a long time, and finally, Calvin called to say he had to meet with an important client.It was weird. In seven years, Calvin had never missed our anniversary. No matter how busy he was, he would always find a way to be with me.

Ella handed Calvin some pastries she had made, blushing. "Mr. Lawson, you've worked so hard all day. I made these myself."Calvin patted her hair gently and smiled. "I had no idea you were so good with your hands. You must've put in a lot of effort. That's really sweet of you.""I'm just worried they don't taste good. It's my first try. You're probably used to the amazing food Mrs. Lawson always makes. I hope you won't think mine are too bad," Ella said nervously.I was the spoiled daughter of the Campbell family, never having to lift a finger for chores, let alone cook. Calvin's family was well-off, but marrying me was like climbing a tree to reach the stars.Calvin looked surprised at her words and said, "Josephine can't cook. She's all about work and doesn't know the first thing about running a home. She can't hold a candle to you."Ella did not seem thrilled by the compliment. Instead, she frowned and said with a hint of sadness, "I can't compare to Mrs. Lawson. I grew up in a

With Calvin on her side, Ella started to act like she owned the place. Winston, who had complained to me, was also forced to leave the company because of her.Calvin was right; I did not even have the right to keep Winston around.To support the company, I had to team up with Calvin and go to the party as his wife. That party was super important because I could meet many clients and business friends.I called the jewelry store I always go to and set up a time to pick out a stylish necklace.However, guess who I bumped into in the VIP room? Ella.I did not want to deal with her, so I quickly chose what I wanted from the catalog and got ready to split.Then, the manager said, "Oops, this necklace is one of a kind, and Ms. Rogers has already called dibs on it."That necklace cost a whopping 150,000 dollars! Ella could not possibly afford it. It had to be Calvin footing the bill.Ella grinned at me. "Too bad, Ms. Campbell. You're too late. It's mine now."Seeing Ella so full of he

For a second, I felt dizzy. Ella's hand on mine felt uncomfortable, and I wanted to push her away.Ella did not let go of me as I expected; she yanked me hard instead.Before I knew it, we both tumbled down the stairs.My right leg throbbed with a sharp pain, and Ella, lying next to me, was bleeding. I had a bad feeling about that.Soon, we were rushed to the hospital.I had a broken right leg, and Ella lost her baby.I spent days in the hospital bed, and Calvin never visited me once.However, he was there for Ella.She was pregnant with his baby, after all.Me? I was just a woman he had been putting up with for far too long.I did not even want to see them, but Ella, pretending to care, came to my room with Calvin.I watched them calmly as Calvin held Ella's hand and asked, "How's Ms. Rogers doing?"Calvin looked at me, disappointed. "The baby's gone. Wasn't that what you wanted? How could you even ask?""You think I did this on purpose?" I could not believe what I was he

I let the news of our divorce slip out first. Once it got around, our company's investments and projects started to have problems. The company's stock price plummeted without the Campbell family's backing, wiping out its market value.Calvin looked upset. "Josephine, what are you doing? This is your company, too. Are you out of your mind?"Then he talked about the company, thinking I would stay just for the company's sake.Sure enough, he said, "We're tied together in business. This kind of thing happens all the time in our world—"I could not help but laugh. "If both of us had agreed, you could call it an open marriage. However, you were the one who cheated."Ella was the first to lose her composure.As long as I had not split from Calvin for good, she could not relax. She was scared I was not over Calvin and started stirring up drama.Since Calvin took her to one fancy dinner, she had been acting all high and mighty.Some folks at work, their heads turned by Ella's new fame,

Calvin thought he had me all figured out, but his smugness gave me the chance I needed.Ever since I found out about Ella, I had been extra careful. I had even moved some of our shared money to a safe place without him knowing.That weekend, I went back to my parents' house. We chatted about Jorhythm Company, the business we started together years ago.Jorhythm Company was a competitor of Kingsley Company, though it was smaller in scale. However, it had taken a different approach with its product line and market positioning. Given the market conditions at the time, its growth potential was significant.My mom looked worried when she asked, "Won't you be too busy if you run Jorhythm Company?"I shook my head. I did not want to burden her with my problems or talk about Calvin and his nonsense. "I believe in Jorhythm," I told her. "I'm going to focus on that from now on. You believe in me, right?"Mom smiled, proud and happy. "Of course, I believe in you! Let me know if you need any

I met up with Ella.Even with all the trouble at Kingsley Company, she was glowing, not a care in the world. I was unsure if Calvin still took care of her or if she had found herself a new guy on the side.I asked her, "Ms. Rogers, are you still planning to be Mrs. Lawson?"Without Calvin around, Ella did not bother with her usual act. She just laughed and said, "Sure, Ms. Campbell. You know the score, so why should I hide it? Mr. Lawson's my golden ticket, and I'm not letting go."I could not help but wonder what Calvin would think if he knew how Ella saw him.I did not argue with her. I just said, "You probably know a bit about Kingsley Company. I can do a lot more than you think. You've got some of Calvin's stuff. If you marry him, you'll have to share it all with him—including his debts."Ella stopped smiling. I could tell she was thinking hard."Ever seen the movie Titanic, Ms. Rogers?" I asked."What's your point?" she asked, frowning.I gave her a small smile and looked

Calvin got the message and stopped coming by.I was busy with company matters, and Jorhythm Company's growth was unstoppable. Winston, who had been forced to leave his previous job, joined us. He was hardworking and quickly got promoted. He even joked that being forced out was a blessing in disguise. "With Ms. Campbell, there's plenty to gain!"I told him, "You've earned it with all your hard work."After everything was ready, I went to see Calvin. My news was like a lifeline to him, and he immediately said yes to the meeting.We met in the house we used to call home.That place was full of our memories, once the coziest corner of my heart. I could only sigh when I saw reminders of our time together.Calvin acted like he wanted to make things right. He cleaned up for me, acting like I was only away for a while to get some air.He put our old pictures where they would be easy to see and would not stop talking about the old days. He took me to our favorite beach and asked me to ma
