I did not expect Zac to only think about the company at this point in time.

I could no longer see the man that I loved in him anymore.

Before I completely lost it, Heather took out a jewelry box from her bag and put it in front of me.

“Mrs. Davis, Mr. Davis bought this for you yesterday. Please don’t be angry anymore. Whatever he does is for this family.”

After she said that, I noticed the ring on her finger.

It was from the same brand as the jewelry box.

I was infuriated. I immediately threw the tiny box away from me.

The item fell out of the box.

Zac was shocked by the huge thud. He stared at me in disbelief.

“Sloan, what’s wrong with you today? What did Manny tell you? Can you really just believe in a kid’s words? How much longer are you going to throw a tantrum just because of last night’s news?”

My eyes were cold when I looked up.

He still thought that I was angry about the trending topic online.

He did not even care about our son’s death!

“I don’t need Manny to tell me anything. I can see for myself! Zac, do you really think that you can make a fool out of me just because I love you?

“Since you feel that Manny is hindering your business, you should just sign the divorce papers! We won’t ever show up in front of you after this. You will be free from us!”

Heather rushed toward me and wanted to grab my arm.

I slapped her hand away.

“Sloan, I’m giving you another chance to rethink what you’ve just said. Do you know what you’re saying?”

I turned around under Zac’s glare and packed my luggage before leaving.

His eyes turned colder at my actions.

“Fine, since you’ve already packed your bags, get lost! I don’t want to see you ever again!

“If you step out of this door today, don’t you ever think about coming back!”

This was not his first time saying something like this.

He thought that this was just like all the previous times when I was acting up due to jealousy.

He thought that he would see me when he woke up the next day with a home-cooked meal as an apology to him. He would not need to apologize to end the cold war.

But I was very clear that this was my very last straw.

Zac and I were together for ten years and had been married for six of them.

Before we got married, we were the ideal couple in everyone’s eyes.

We did everything together back when we were students.

Our camaraderie and mutual love was sincere.

Back then, to grab a seat at the library at 6:00 a.m., Zac would purposely wake up earlier at 5:00 a.m. to buy me breakfast.

He would then pretend to bump into me at my place before we headed to the library together.

He would ask the teacher to put our seats together.

To get closer to me, he had made a promise to the teacher that he would improve his grades.

After some hesitation, the teacher agreed to his request.

From then on, he started studying very hard.

After his results came out, it showed that he had improved a lot. The teacher was no longer worried that he would be distracted.

We became the best study partners.

All of our classmates were envious of us.

Before our final exams, he stood before my house and looked at me very seriously.

“I know my family is not rich, but I will work hard for our future.

“Sloan, wait for me.”

I was extremely touched when I heard this.

I hid this relationship from my family.

After we graduated, I immediately brought him to meet my parents.

In order to marry him, I went against my parents’ wishes for the first time in my life.

None of my family members showed up at my wedding.

He stared at me genuinely as he said softly, “From now on, I’m your family. No matter when, I’d always be here for you.”

    After that, Zac did as he promised. He was there whenever I needed him. He was there until his business grew bigger, and he started to get busier. He was there until Heather appeared in his life. He was there until we had our first big fight because of Heather. It was hard to repair a relationship that was already broken. If there was someone else in a relationship, it was hard to mend it anymore. The year Manny was born was the toughest year for the company. I was completely alone during my pregnancy, and I even went into labor alone. I only gave him a call when I was about to give birth. However, Heather was the one who answered. Her soft voice said, “Mrs. Davis, Mr. Davis is in a business meeting. He’s unable to talk to you right now. If you have anything urgent, I can pass the message on to him.” I bore the pain of contractions and bit my tongue when I heard Zac’s sigh over the phone. After I ended the call, a notification popped onto my phone screen. It w

    Just as Zac was about to slap me, Heather stopped him. She shook her head disapprovingly, “How would a child know what an agreement is about? He probably doesn’t even know what he’s torn apart.“I don’t think he did it on purpose. I can rewrite the agreement later at night…” Zac was furious after hearing that. “The agreement is not the main point. I can’t simply see him grow up with twisted values!“He tore up an agreement that’s worth millions of dollars apart just like that! He’s still so young! He’s going to get worse as he grows older!” Upon hearing that, I was boiling with rage. “Zac, are you insane? How could Manny tear your agreement apart? Would you rather believe in this b*tch than your own son?” When I thought about her framing my dead son, I was beyond furious. When Zac heard what I had said, he freed himself from Heather’s grip and slapped me across the face. I immediately came to a realization from his slap. It was only then I finally saw him without my

    Zac loosened his grip, and his phone fell onto the floor. After a while, he came back to his senses. He picked up the phone and yelled, “Who died? Who got into a car accident? The security guard said he’d seen Manny, and you’re telling me he’s dead now? Did the security guard see a ghost?“Did Sloan ask you to say that?” After that, he stared angrily at me. But it was as if I could not feel his anger. I was just staring at Manny’s ashes in shock. Zac said through clenched teeth, “You’re fired! Go get your salary from Sloan!” He then hung up the phone. Just when he was about to leave, Heather said gently, “Mr. Davis, maybe Manny is afraid that you’re angry, that’s why he asked your assistant to lie. If you go over like this, he’ll…” As she spoke, she seemed a little frantic. Usually, Zac would listen to her. However, Zac interrupted her this time, “If he dares to pull such a prank, I’ll make sure today is his last day on this planet!” Upon hearing that, I laughed in

    I saw my parents’ contacts on my phone and started to cry uncontrollably. It was as if I was in a competition with my family all these years. I was desperate to prove that I was right. After Manny was born, I took care of him while I helped Zac with his business. I was using the connections that my parents brought to me, but I stubbornly believed that it was my own hard work. After that, Zac kept telling everyone that he had married the perfect wife. He said that meeting me was the luckiest thing that had ever happened to him. However, the number of photos of him going in and out of hotels had increased. The marriage was already dead for a long time. My stubbornness had ruined myself and even more so, my son. I slowly walked toward the urn and wiped the surface clean with a piece of tissue paper. Then, I sent a text message to a few key business partners of our company. Many of them were only willing to help me because of my parents. Since I had decided to ret

    Zac really did not know that Heather had sent me her pregnancy report in private. “What does it have to do with her? I was the one who asked Manny to go out. You should just blame me instead of her. She’s only doing her job.“I know you’re prejudiced against Heather, but you can’t deny that she’s a talented worker!” Manny’s my son too. I won’t let him die for nothing.” My lifeless eyes met his stubborn ones. It was as if I could see my old self in his eyes. Zac, who was trying to prove his innocence, seemed like a clown. The next second, I could not hold in my sneer. “Zac, aren’t you such a great boyfriend? You’re using my son to elevate your lover’s career!“Even if the car accident was not premeditated, I believe she’s been planning to frame my son for a really long time! What about the security guard the other day? I want to hear from him directly!” It was only then Zac recalled the security guard’s fake statement. He then immediately called his assistant out of habi

    The surveillance footage did not show Manny shredding the agreement as the security guard had claimed. Instead, ten minutes of footage from the surveillance camera located at the safety exit had been erased. Someone must have stolen the agreement. Zac slammed his fist on the table angrily.“Go look for it! The agreement must be nearby! When the culprit exited the building, he no longer had the agreement with him! Go! Look for the agreement in every trash can of the company!“No one can leave until we find the agreement!” However, only half of the employees were free to dig through the trash. The majority of them were busy dealing with the issues with our business partners. The company was facing a huge issue. My connections were the backbone of the company. Zac instructed his employees to send gifts to the business partners, but no one was willing to resume their business dealings with him. After multiple failed attempts, he slumped into his chair dispiritedly. It was

    After I suppressed my disgust, I said, “I saw Heather’s pregnancy report before, and it was real. If the child isn’t yours, then the hospital will have a record of the father. You should have a look. Maybe you’ll find some information there.” The police also jumped into action. Two officers went to the security guard’s home by tracing the information he left on his employment contract. When they arrived, he was frantically packing his luggage. He could not even form a full sentence out of fear. The police officers had done the first round of questioning while they were on the way back to the police station. However, he would not tell them about Heather’s whereabouts. He did not know what was a financial crime, and he did not know he was breaking the law. He only knew that he was earning money to treat his son. The other team of police officers went to the maternity hospital. They would have Heather’s maternity records.

Can you stop being unreasonable?” I was busy contacting IT support to retract the trending topics. Two hours later, I received a call from the emergency department of the hospital. When I reached the hospital, my son was already dead. In his hand, he was still holding a staff ID tag. The secretary’s name was on the tag. I broke down crying. My husband, Zac Davis, had blocked my number so I could not reach him. After I completed the hospital procedures, Zac finally returned my call.
