Divorcing My Cheating Wife
Chapter 3
"I want to buy an apartment for our baby." After saying this, Emily looked at me quietly. Her eyes were as clear as spring water.
When I heard this, I felt like a heavy stone was pressing down on my heart. I had a bad premonition.
I asked, "The baby hasn't been born yet. There's no way to write his name on the house proprietary certificate, right?"
Emily became anxious when she heard this. "You can write my name on it first. I'll transfer it to our baby when he's older."
She didn't mention my name at all.
I wondered, "If the baby is my child, I will buy it without hesitation. I will buy the most prosperous place in the city, not to mention Cascade Heights Estates. However, the child in her belly has no blood relationship with me. The more I think about it, the more heartbroken I feel. What's more, she should be very clear about my current identity. I am just an ordinary employee with a monthly salary of less than 5,000 dollars. How can I afford to buy a house worth tens of millions of dollars?"
I asked tentatively, "Where are you going to buy it?"
Emily said, "Cascade Heights Estates is pretty good."
I pretended I knew nothing and continued to ask, "Why don't we go to see the house together sometime?"
"No need. I've seen it." Emily blurted out without thinking.
She quickly explained, "Don't you have to go to work? So I asked Daniel to go with me."
Seeing that I was silent, she took my hand and said coquettishly, "Don't be jealous. Daniel is my childhood friend. We grew up together. Don't let your imagination run wild."
When I heard these words, I couldn't express my inner feelings in words.
I felt sad and angry. More importantly, I would not submit to such treatment.
I thought, "Daniel took off your pants and had sex with you. What kind of childhood friend is he?"
I tried to force a smile. "You know, the housing prices there..."
"Didn't your parents gave you some money? I remember it is more than 30 million dollars, right?" Emily said impatiently.
At that moment, I was a little dizzy, as if the person standing in front of me was not my beloved wife but a skilled executioner.
She caused me excruciating pain.
I once told her that the money was my parents' last money.
I didn't expect that Emily would still be thinking about the money.
I actually began to feel lucky that I didn't tell her that I had more money than 30 million dollars.
For the sake of Daniel, Emily was willing to sacrifice the ten years of our relationship.
It was at this moment that I realized that Emily didn't love me anymore. She left me with only those beautiful but short-lived memories.
My heart was torn into pieces. It was just like the candlelight dinner, which was thrown into the trash can on our wedding anniversary.
Seeing that I remained silent for so long, Emily lost her patience. "Honey, you clearly said when you married me that everything you have is everything I have. Even if I ask for the stars in the sky, you will pick them for me."
I wondered, "Did I really say that? I can't remember anymore."
I smiled bitterly. "You can use that money as long as you are happy."
Emily was delighted. I seemed to hear her sigh of relief.
Emily said happily, "Honey, you are the best. I love you. Come, the food is getting cold. I will feed you."
I politely declined her offer. She didn't force me. She kissed me on the face and whispered in my ear, "Tonight, I'll give you a surprise."
After saying that, she pretended to be mysterious, took some clothes, and rushed into the bathroom.
Listening to the sound of water splashing inside, I gently put down the fork.
I lost my appetite.
I thought, "Haven't I gotten enough 'surprises'?"
My eyes fell on the wedding ring on the middle finger of my right hand. I gently took it off and threw it into the trash can.
