My husband is poor. We've already been married for three years, but I've covered all our expenses during that time. Even when I'm interested in a cheap bag when we go shopping, he says it's too expensive. He tells me not to buy it. Later, I discover that he gives his first love a four-million-dollar diamond necklace for her birthday. It turns out he's not broke and heavily in debt—he's the heir to an affluent family with a net worth of billions of dollars.

Chapter 2
I thought I was his one true love, but it turned out I was just Isaiah's plaything. The happy and blissful marriage I had cherished was simply a fantasy he orchestrated. Isaiah was never an orphan, and all that talk about a failed business and owing more than a million dollars was a lie because his family was actually powerful and wealthy.Then, I heard someone else in the private room say, "By the way, I heard Regina was thrilled with the necklace you gave her last night, and she's thinking about rekindling things with you." Another voice chimed in, "If she finds out you're married, won't that break her heart?"Someone else added, "It serves Regina right for dumping Isaiah back then just to go abroad for her film career.""Don't you know that Isaiah only married that country bumpkin to get back at Regina?"My whole body trembled, and I nearly lost my balance. Not only did Isaiah not love me, but he had also turned me into a tool for his revenge against another woman. My heart wa

Chapter 3
Isaiah's smile froze for a moment. Nonetheless, he quickly composed himself—there was not even a flicker of guilt in his eyes after being exposed. His love for me had been nothing but a performance, and now, the real Isaiah was on full display—cold, selfish, and arrogant. He shrugged and said, "Looks like you really love me, huh? Recognizing me just from the back of my head."I stared at him, stunned. Then, my emotions finally erupted, and I shouted, "Isaiah, you're not worthy of my love! You're nothing but a piece of trash!"My entire body was trembling as I pulled the divorce papers I had prepared from my bag and threw them at him. I demanded, "Sign them!" Isaiah glanced at me in surprise, picking up the papers. As he flipped through them, his expression shifted to one of disbelief. He double-checked the documents as if he thought he had read them wrong, but the truth was plain—there was no mention of me asking for alimony. He looked at me with confusion and asked, "So,

I straightened my back, and my resolve was solid as steel. Isaiah looked down on me, convinced I would feel grateful for "marrying up" into his world of wealth and power. However, he was so wrong.I stated firmly, "Isaiah, if I could, I'd wish we'd never met. If you don't show up tomorrow, I'll file for a contested divorce through the court."Seeing my unwavering stance, Isaiah's face darkened. "Aimee, have you lost your mind? Do you even know how many women would do anything just for a glance from me, and here you are, talking about divorce!"Isaiah scoffed at my so-called ignorance, but I only pitied him for not understanding love—true love did not hinge on wealth or status.I replied, "Isaiah, I would rather you be that broke man drowning in debt than the lying billionaire you turned out to be. I did love you, but that version of you was a lie—a character you created, not the real you."Isaiah sneered, unwilling to believe me. "Aimee, drop the act. You should be honored that I

Chapter 5
Seeing Isaiah's face turn dark with anger after the slap was oddly satisfying. It felt like the heavy weight pressing on my chest for so long had finally been lifted.He spat out, "You're insane!"I was unfazed by his words. I knew that the only way to deal with a man like him was to show no mercy.Regina clung to his arm and whimpered pitifully, "Isaiah, don't be mad. Ms. Sinclair probably loves you too much and can't bear to lose you. She even called me the other woman just now."Isaiah glanced at me and sneered, "The one who isn't loved is the real 'other woman'!"I kept a blank expression. After all, I did not love him anymore, and his words could not hurt me in the slightest.Surprisingly, the slap seemed to work—Isaiah finally agreed to the divorce. If I had known this earlier, I would have slapped him a few more times to save myself the trouble.When I got the divorce certificate, I felt like I was reborn. A failed marriage was not the end of the world; the important thin

Chapter 6
I thought Isaiah would finally stop bothering me after I told him off, but I was wrong. He started waiting for me outside my office every evening and even sent flowers to my desk.My coworkers were curious about who was trying to woo me. However, I just laughed it off as I tossed the flowers into the trash, saying, "A dead man." I always believed that exes should stay out of our lives, remain in the past, and act like they never existed anymore.Isaiah also began waiting outside my apartment, each time with a gift in hand. One day, he brought an expensive box of jewelry, the logo revealing it cost thousands.I tossed it off the balcony right in front of Isaiah without hesitation. My reaction seemed to hurt him, and he stopped with the gifts after that.Not long after, I was laid off as part of a company-wide downsizing. To avoid Isaiah's relentless harassment, I decided to move back to my hometown.When Mom learned about the divorce, she did not blame me at all. She said some th

Chapter 7
I knew very well that Isaiah had never been sincere with me. His love was all an act, so when he showed up kneeling at Mom's door begging for forgiveness, I grabbed a bucket of cold water and dumped it over him.Soaked and humiliated, Isaiah stormed off angrily. I was relieved to finally get rid of him, but my relief was short-lived. That same day, Mom suddenly collapsed.I rushed her to the hospital, only to receive the devastating news—she had developed kidney failure. Before I could even process this, the doctor informed me that the surgery would cost 200 thousand dollars.I did not have that kind of money. Standing in the hospital corridor, overwhelmed and desperate, I saw Isaiah walking toward me.He said, "Aimee, agree to be with me again, and I'll give you 200 thousand dollars."I clenched my fists, saying nothing. Then, Isaiah stepped closer, whispering, "Don't you want to save your mom?"A wave of despair washed over me. I did not want to give in, but the thought of Mom
