My Wife Chose to Help Her First Love, rather than Stay with Me
Chapter 3
Herbert's apologetic look vanished in an instant. He leaned closer to me. The corner of his mouth hooked up.
“Catherine said that your child shouldn't have been kept in the first place.”
I looked up sharply. My fingertips trembling uncontrollably.
He smiled contemptuously and lowered his voice, “Do you know about the Marvelli Family? The backer behind me is the Marvelli Family.”
He purposely paused, admiring my sudden change of face “If the Marvelli Family moves a finger, the Luxembourg city would have to quake. What are you going to fight me with?”
I clenched my fists in death.
The Marvelli Family was a truly wealthy family, a century-old family and controlled the economic lifeline of half of the country. Not to mention the Beaulieu Family, even the entire Luxembourg city's powerful and wealthy people combined were nothing more than ants in front of the Marvelli Family.
He suddenly staggered back and fell to the ground, shouting loudly, “Benjamin, I know you hate me for snatching Catherine! I'm going to die right now!”
“Benjamin Lament!”
Catherine rushed downstairs and pushed me away fiercely. I stumbled and hit the coffee table. My waist hurt a lot.
As she helped Herbert up, her eyes were cold and piercing. “What did you do to him? Can you stop being irrational and making trouble?”
“I didn't do anything!” My voice trembled.
“You better not have!”
She pulled Herbert and walked out the door without looking back. “Herbert, let's go.”
I stood in the living room. My hands were unable to stop shaking.
Catherine hadn't been home for two days. I stood in the living room and took down our wedding photos one by one.
When the photo frame fell into the trash can, it made a dull "bang". My cell phone vibrated and the screen lit up.
“Benjamin, I'll have someone come to pick up something and you can give it to him for me.”
In the closet room, the watch worth ten million dollars was lying quietly in the drawer.
I remember that when she took it, she said, “This is for the most important person.”
I stared at the watch for a long time and suddenly smiled. I took the watch out expressionlessly, handed it to the driver and then drew out a copy of the divorce papers.
My voice was calm at him, “Wait, give me a ride. I'll deliver it myself.”
The driver hesitated and asked me to get in the car. The car parked outside the luxury manor, with bright lights inside and a melodious symphony.
“Mr. Herbert, happy birthday!”
The sound of blessings came from here and there. I walked in and everyone's eyes instantly fell on me.
“Isn't this Mrs.Catherine's loser husband? What’s with those clothes like this? It’s so rustic!”
“I heard that he's stalking her to death, so shameless.”
“Mrs. Catherine should have dumped him a long time ago. Mrs. Catherine and Herbert have a child, so why is he still sticking around?”
“I heard that he deliberately pushed Herbert in order to keep Mrs. Catherine. What a ruthless man!”
I turned a deaf ear and walked towards them step by step.
Catherine saw me and frowned. “Benjamin, why are you here?”
I smiled. “Congratulations on Herbert's birthday. How could I not come?”
After saying that, I handed over the watch box. “Here’s something you wanted.”
Herbert's eyes lit up, he reached out to take it and deliberately opened it in front of me. “Catherine, is this for me?”
Catherine didn't say anything. Her eyes glanced at me in a complicated manner.
Herbert said, “You can help me put it on.”
She was silent for two seconds, picked up the watch, put her fingers on his wrist and put on the watch. Herbert wrapped his arms around her neck, kissed her heavily on the cheek and looked provocatively at me.
I did not say anything. Suddenly, he stumbled, “Ah!”
Catherine rushed over in an arrow step to hold him up, turning his head to look at me angrily. “What are you doing again now?”
I was silent as I handed over the document bag. “Sign it.”
She was just about to open her mouth when Herbert suddenly shook his body. “Catherine, my legs hurt!”
