Chapter 7

A month passed quickly. Valery had taken everything from the house. She took away all the bags and jewelry I bought for her and even took the hairdryer. If it weren't for the other appliances being purchased before marriage, she would probably have called a moving company to take them away.

Most of these things were sold at a discounted price by Jarrett, and the money was taken by Jarrett. But Valery was happy to accept it.

Just after finishing all the procedures and getting divorced from the Family Court, I walked to the parking lot and saw Valery appear in front of my car, holding hands with a man intimately. The man glanced at me, smiled, and handed me a cigarette, saying, "Hello, do you want a cigarette? I am Valery's current boyfriend. I heard that you are dying soon. That's great. Thank you for leaving Valery to me."

I thought self-mockingly that it was fortunate that I had lied out of goodwill, otherwise, not only would I have spent money on Valery's medical treatment, but I would also have been cheated on.

Valery glanced at me and said, "You look good. I was worried that you would die so soon. It's a pity that you are stingy and don't give me a chance to inherit your estate."

Seeing me staring at the man and ignoring her, Valery smiled and said, "I have known him for a long time. He is much better than you in many aspects. Jarrett has also tested him. He is an extraordinary man. After learning a lesson from you, I will take him for a medical examination before marriage."

The man patted his chest and said, "Valery, I am strong. Didn't you know it last night? Can a sick person have the strength that I have?"

Valery got shy and patted the man's chest. Seeing that I didn't react, Valery smiled mockingly and was about to speak when the phone rang. She immediately answered, "I got it. I'm busy now. I'll transfer it to you later."

It seemed that it was a call from Jarrett. I just transferred 40 thousand dollars to Valery, and Jarrett couldn't wait to get it.
