All Chapters of An Idiot for a Husband: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

On New Year's Eve, my husband, Waylon Wood and I decided to take a trip to Highland's Snow World before stopping by my parents' house for a visit. Afterward, we'd return to his family's home to celebrate the holiday.Waylon and I met in college.Growing up in the freezing Northeast for 18 years, I couldn't wait to escape the cold and went to a college located in the South. That was where I met Waylon, and we fell in love.For him, I didn't hesitate to marry far from home and settle down in the South.Because of my busy work schedule, I hadn't been back in three years. This trip was the perfect chance to not only have some fun but also spend some quality time with my parents.Waylon, however, wasn't thrilled."Why on earth would anyone go to Northeast in the dead of winter? Are you crazy?" he grumbled.I retorted unhappily, "You complain the summer's too hot, the travel's rushed, and the vacation's too short. Now that we finally have a decent break and Snow World is open, why not

The hotel receptionist passed me Waylon's message—"Reflect on your actions."The sympathy in her eyes made me feel humiliated.So, Waylon played me. He'd lured me to the restaurant just to punish me like this.My hands trembled as I borrowed the receptionist's phone to call him. However, he hung up immediately when he heard my voice.I tried calling again for more than ten times. Eventually, Waylon blocked the number.The suffocating weight of shame pressed down on my chest.Under the curious gazes of others, I stumbled out of the hotel, utterly lost.I didn't have money, my phone, or my ID. Waylon had forced me to a dead end.The biting wind pierced through my clothes, chilling me to the bone as I walked aimlessly down the street, trembling and clutching my arms tightly for warmth.As I trudged forward, flashes of our arguments from the past two days replayed in my mind.Waylon must have been holding back for a long time. And now, he'd gone to such elaborate lengths to teach

Uncle Mike's family owned a martial arts academy, and both of my cousins had inherited the skills. With just a slight twist, Waylon's arm was dislocated."This is an assault! I'm going to sue you!" Waylon threatened despite the pain.I sneered and watched him writhe in agony on the floor. "Go ahead. You think we're scared of you? Waylon, we're getting divorced. I've made up my mind!""You're crazy to divorce me over this. You'll regret it!" Waylon spat through gritted teeth.My second cousin, Adam Lamont, looked down at Waylon with a smug grin, clearly enjoying his discomfort. He sidled up to me like a soldier awaiting orders."Lucie, how do you want to deal with him? You call the shots."I glanced down at the man I'd loved for four years.Any lingering affection I had for him was long gone. With a cold smirk, I replied, "Take his jacket off and toss him outside. Let him experience what it feels like to freeze to death."Waylon howled, "You evil bitch!"Hearing this, Uncle Mik

I called the property management to have them evict Delilah and the rest.The security team was impressively efficient, and before long, they had all of them escorted out.Not long after, I had my lawyer draft the divorce papers and sent it to Waylon. Once the divorce was finalized, I planned to resign from my job and return to the Northeast for work.Since I majored in medicine, I reached out to an old friend working at a hospital to keep an eye out for job openings. Eventually, I got an interview opportunity.On the day of the interview, I was heading toward the elevator after finishing up. At that moment, I heard the elevator doors open and voices approaching."Freya, you're truly a blessing for our family. You've got to take good care of the baby. It's Waylon's first child and our family's first grandson!" exclaimed a familiar voice.I hid behind a wall and peeked out to see the trio—Delilah and Waylon walking with a pregnant woman, fussing over her like she was made of glass

Before leaving, Delilah spat out one last threat. "Lucie, you'll pay for this!"The incident caused quite a stir, even trending briefly on Highland's local news.Initially, the Wood family resisted splitting the marital assets fairly. But I warned them that if they kept delaying, I would expose everything their family had done online.That wouldn't just make the Highland news—it could go nationwide. And if that happened, Waylon's job might not survive the fallout.Reluctantly, they agreed to a fair division of assets, and we moved forward with the divorce process.A few days later, I received news that I had passed the hospital interview.On my first day at work, I ran into Nigel in the hallway.Delilah and Waylon hadn't returned to their hometown yet, likely because Freya was here waiting to give birth. But why was Nigel still hanging around?Curious about his suspicious behavior, I decided to follow him. To my shock, Nigel entered Freya's hospital room.Did they know each ot
