No More Illusions, Only Authentic Love

In the blink of an eye, two years had passed. After graduating from college, I suffered several setbacks in job applications because of a hidden disease in my left leg. In the end, I accidentally received an offer from a listed company.

It was not until the day I went to work that I found out that Hailey was the boss's daughter.

It would only take one phone call to hire me.

She remembered the saving of her life back then, and I was also grateful, and after a while, the two young people came together.

When her father knew about this, he didn't agree at first, because the gap between our families was too big.

It was no different from a toad dreams of eating swan meat.

However, Hailey was determined. She showed a pregnancy test report to her father.

Either we got married or she got out of the paternity.

In this case, Hailey's father compromised.

After getting married, he found out that the report was fake, but it was already too late.

After getting married for so many years of marriage, despite not favored by her family, I strived to play the perfect husband.

From food to clothing, housing, or travelling, Hailey was taken care of in every possible way.

I could also tolerate her unruliness and willfulness.

I had thought that we would spend the rest of our lives happily. However, at the beginning of this year, after her childhood sweetheart appeared, everything changed quietly.

On the second day of Brian's return, Hailey recruited him into the company as a general manager.

I've been working in the company for so many years, but I'm still just an junior employee.

Except for a few people, no one knew that I was Hailey's husband. This was her father's request. The reason was that he was afraid that I would bring shame to his family.

For the dinner to welcome Brian, Ruyan Hailey brought me along.

The first moment we met, Brian opened his arms and embraced her in a face-to-face hug that froze me in my tracks.

Hailey was afraid that I would misunderstand, so she immediately explained that Brian grew up with her in diapers. He was indeed her little follower since childhood.

Therefore, the two of them were as close as real siblings.

It was a western rule to hug each other when they met. It was also a habit that had been around them for many years.

I smiled and let it go at the time, completely not noticing that Brian's eyes were filled with desire as he looked at her.

Hailey went in and out with Brian together in the following days.

Both of them were senior executives of the company, and they were as close as siblings, so it was understandable to others.

But accepting something like a ring is something I could never stand.

This meant that the man was declaring his sovereignty over women, and Hailey agreed without any hesitation.

The moment she put on the ring, my heart had already died.

I was already dead from that moment.

I slept through the night and in the early the next morning, Hailey knocked on my door.

"What time is it? Why don't you get up and make breakfast?"

In the past, every day when I woke up, Hailey would pout in my arms, saying that she was hungry.

After getting married for so many years, she rarely ate breakfast outside, because I cooked it for her.

In order to please my wife, I spent a lot of time and energy on learning cooking, and I often don't bring the same dishes for a whole month. I tried every means to please her every day.

Thinking of this, I smiled bitterly.

Seeing that there was no movement, Hailey patted the door a few more times. "Shawn, it's time to get up and make breakfast. I'm starving."

Her voice was cold, as if she was ordering a servant.

Her temper was undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
