Chapter 3

From childhood to adulthood, Matthew had always wanted to surpass me in all aspects. He liked to be better than me in academics. He snatched my awards away in competitions... Natalya's efforts to save him were based on such a mentality, that was, he wanted to crush me in all aspects.

"So, the girl I like must be his."

"All of this is because my father used to be his father's superior, which embarrassed him in front of his classmates."

Natalya had a secret crush on Matthew in college. The two of them broke up and got back together countless times. And I was Natalya's loyal follower, flattering her from college until now.

In the seventh year of our marriage, Natalya rekindled her passion with Matthew, her first love, who had abandoned her eighteen times.

She used her family's money to subsidize her destitute first love. She went out dancing with him every night, ignoring Linda.

As a result, Linda became mildly autistic. She had to go to the hospital regularly for psychological counseling.

Although I loved Natalya, I couldn't tolerate such a big betrayal. Nor can I let her hurt Linda. I decided to divorce her.

But she refused to sign the divorce document. She kept saying that she couldn't divorce me for the sake of the child.

I was afraid that my young daughter couldn't handle it for a while, so we were in a deadlock.

Later, the evidence showing how we had been passionate once became a weapon to harm me.

Matthew secretly stole the diamond ring I had given to Natalya. He went to auction it.

After I caught him red-handed, Matthew made a scene in front of Natalya.

Natalya indulgently said that Matthew could do with the ring whatever he wanted, saying that she could compensate me with another one.

So, in front of me, Matthew threw my diamond ring from the top floor of the company.

To buy a diamond ring that could satisfy my beautiful and rich wife, I used to work throughout day and night. My heart often ached.

As the diamond ring was thrown away, I felt like Natalya had grabbed my heart and kicked it away.

I gradually gave up on Natalya. I found a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement, but I hadn't found a suitable opportunity to ask her for a divorce.

Originally, I planned to divorce her after Linda's birthday.

Now, our divorce agreement was hidden in the burning room, waiting for her to sign it. It should have turned into ashes by now.
