Setting My Husband Free Chapter 9
I almost laughed out loud when I saw the message. Did Ruby even know that Nolan was the one refusing to divorce now?"Would you have the time to do this if he really wanted to marry you?" I replied to her. However, she didn't respond to me. Maybe she didn't know what to say. I should thank her because without her, I wouldn't have known the truth about Nolan's so-called business meetings.That afternoon, I got an unexpected guest.When Lucy heard the guest was looking for me, she let Ruby in and went out to run errands. I bumped into Ruby when I stepped out of my room."What are you doing here?" I asked.Ruby smiled in delight as she looked around the house as if she were inspecting her future home."It's beautiful! Everything is how I've always imagined my dream house would look like."Ruby's mood shifted when she saw my expressionless face. She pointed at me and suddenly shouted, "I'm the one who should be living here! All of this—the decor and interior—it's everythin

I heard someone calling for me as I slowly opened my eyes. The room was filled with people, and Nolan stood across from me. It was my mother who had called my name.As soon as I woke up, I instinctively reached for my belly. My mom's eyes reddened at the sight."Is the baby… gone?" I asked, my voice trembling.No one answered me, but Nolan finally nodded after a long pause."Yvette, we can still have—"Smack! My father's slap cut Nolan off. Albert, who was standing nearby, didn't hold my father back at all.The baby was gone, and my heart felt like it had been torn apart. I stared at Nolan, my voice barely above a whisper."Mom, Dad, I'd like to talk to Nolan alone."As they left, my mother handed me the divorce agreement. Nolan's eyes were fixed on the papers in my hand. When we were finally alone, he stepped forward. He grabbed my hand and begged for forgiveness."I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Yvette. It's all my fault. I should have protected you and our baby!"He then sl

When I opened the door to the private room, Nolan Garrison and his secretary were in the middle of a kiss, encouraged by the crowd around them."Come on! Give us another one!" People clapped and chanted. I stood in the doorway for a good ten seconds before the two finally pulled apart.From a distance, I could see the smirk on my husband's face while Ruby Jennings, his secretary, shyly smacked the friends who had egged them on."Stop it! Nolan's married! I wouldn't have kissed him if I hadn't lost the game," she said, turning back to glance at Nolan, who looked relieved by her words. As Ruby turned around again, she finally noticed me standing there."Yvette! When did you get here?" she asked as her eyes widened in surprise. Perhaps what had just happened flashed across her mind, and a look of panic crossed her face. Ruby tugged at Nolan's sleeve under the table. She thought I wouldn't notice, but the table was made of glass. I had seen everything."What are you doing he
Setting My Husband Free Chapter 2
In a daze, I watched as Nolan and his group hurried off to their next party.I could still hear him talking to his assistant on the phone. "Send her home," he said, without a trace of concern.Old memories flooded my mind at that moment.Snapping back to reality, I didn't wait for Nolan to respond. I walked past him and left the bar. I had delivered his grandfather's message. Whether Nolan wanted to go or not, that was his choice.I had never once given him the cold shoulder. This was probably the first time since we had gotten married.I must've caught him off guard because even as I left, Nolan was still standing there, dumbfounded.The moment I got into the car, Nolan called."It was just a friendly kiss! What's with the attitude?"The first thing he did was complain about my behavior earlier.Leaving without a word must've embarrassed him in front of his friends.I felt a sharp pang in my chest. So, it was normal for "friends" to be so intimate with each other. Did th

In the middle of the night, Nolan suddenly came home.Before I could react, he was on top of me. In the pale moonlight, I could see the fury on his face.He started kissing me aggressively before I even had the chance to react. "You did this on purpose, didn't you?" he sneered. "Are you so desperate to have my child that you resorted to using Grandpa to pressure me? Well, congratulations. You got what you wanted."Nolan was strong, and I couldn't get him off me no matter how much I pushed.That night, I felt like a lifeless puppet, forced to go along with everything he did. His touches and kisses made my skin crawl. He soon broke the silence through gritted teeth, "Don't you like it? Didn't you have Grandpa force me to come back for this exact moment? Why are you pretending to be disgusted now?"I buried my face in the pillow, stifling my sobs.I regretted everything.Having grown up together since we were young, Nolan had always been nice to me. However, the moment my pa

Before anything else, I needed to make a trip to the Garrisons' estate.-Albert was frowning deeply in his study. "Yvette, you know that I will stand up for you if you've been wronged," he started. "However, divorce isn't a small matter. The Garrisons and Sullivans are closely tied together."Each of Albert's words felt like a hammer pounding against my heart. I understood what he meant, but I couldn't go on any longer."Grandpa, I've made up my mind," I said firmly, my voice echoing through the study.I looked him straight in the eyes, no longer speaking to him as his granddaughter-in-law at this moment."Even after the divorce, the relationship between our families will remain intact. I am the only daughter of the Sullivans, and they want me to be happy."I wasn't asking for Albert's permission for the divorce—this was merely out of respect for him as an elder.Albert was silent for a long time before he finally spoke, "Yvette, we've wronged you. I agree with the divorce.

Nolan grabbed Simon's wrist and turned to glare at me."You couldn't wait, could you?" he sneered. "Grandpa told me everything at lunch, and now, here you are, already out on a date with someone else in the afternoon?" He then leaned in close and whispered into my ear, "You went through all that trouble to marry me, yet now you're divorcing me for another man?"I slapped him hard across the face before he could finish talking.Simon stepped forward to explain, but Nolan, blinded by rage, punched him to the ground. The divorce papers were scattered all over the floor."Are you mad?! He's my lawyer!" I shouted, trying to step between them, but Nolan was too furious to listen.Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my belly.I saw Nolan's face go pale as he rushed toward me through my blurry vision."Yvette, everything will be fine. I'll get you to the hospital. Don't worry!"I realized I was in the hospital when I regained consciousness. Nolan hurried over and grabbed my hand the m
Setting My Husband Free Chapter 6
Nolan's words lingered in my mind even after he left. No wonder he seemed like a completely different person overnight. As it turned out, I was the cause of it all.Back then, Nolan already had someone he liked in the same class as him—Ruby.After Nolan started his business, Ruby naturally joined his company. As he was about to confess his feelings to her, my parents had gone to see Albert."That girl isn't right for you. Your company means nothing to the Garrisons. Do you think Ruby would stay by your side if your company collapses?"Those were Albert's exact words. Nolan explained to me that Albert could ruin his company in an instant if he wanted to.So, he had buried his feelings for Ruby deep inside him, and I became the scapegoat for Nolan's frustration over his failed romance.When Nolan told me all this, I couldn't help but find it both funny and tragic.Before I could even respond, Nolan grabbed the divorce agreement from the table and left.After that day, Nolan n

There was a hint of sadness in Nolan's eyes. I tried to pull my hand away, but he only gripped it tighter. It wasn't until I pretended to be in pain that he finally let go.Five minutes later, he came back with a share transfer agreement. I looked at him, feeling confused. Then, to my surprise, Nolan knelt on one knee before me and gently took my hand."These shares represent all of my holdings in the company. I'm giving them all to you. Will you accept them?" Nolan looked at me with hopeful eyes. It was almost as if he was waiting for me to forgive him, embrace him happily, and overlook everything he had done to me over the past three years of our marriage."No."The smile on Nolan's face instantly fell when he heard my response, and his grip on my hand tightened."Tell me, what can I do for you to forgive me?""Fire Ruby," I said without any hesitation. In truth, I wasn't bothered about Nolan's shares or his money. Also, asking him to fire Ruby—it was just a spur-of-the
Setting My Husband Free Chapter 7
Nolan had said he'd give me a month to decide the course of our relationship, but he had told the elders about my pregnancy.My expression darkened instantly as I pulled him aside. "What do you mean by this? Why did you tell them about my pregnancy? Are you trying to force me to be with you, Nolan?" I confronted him.However, Nolan acted as though he hadn't heard me. He picked up a napkin to wipe the sweat off my face instead. "Why are you sweating? Is it hot here?"Ignoring my question, he continued to fuss over me. Feeling frustrated, I brushed past him and headed toward the door."I just want to be with you like other couples, like you said that night," he said as he grabbed my wrist. His words made my heart skip a beat. If Nolan had said that just a little sooner, I might have stayed with him. But now, I am too exhausted to do this anymore.I swung his hand away, and it slammed into the corner of the wall due to the force. Blood immediately started flowing."Yvette,
