The Day I Divorced, I Became a Billionaire

"As long as you agree to divorce Zayn, I will give you a personal subsidy of twenty-seven thousand five hundred dollars."

After enjoying my meal, I was washing the dishes when I suddenly heard my mother-in-law, Gretta Sherman, offered and my heart suddenly throbbed.

I turned my gaze towards my husband, Zayn O'Connor, who was sitting in the living room. He was immersed in playing games as if what his mother said just now had nothing to do with him.

"Deal! I accept your offer to divorce him."

Seeing that I finally gave in and accepted the offer, Zayn raised his head and looked at me in surprise.

"It's better to do it today than to wait for another day," he said excitedly as if he could not wait any longer

My mother-in-law seemed a bit skeptical. "Do you really agree?"

"Yes." I calmly put the dishes back on the table and took off my bib. "But I have two conditions."

"What conditions? As long as you agree to divorce, I will agree to any condition you give me," he said with a bright smile.

It was the first time I had seen him smile in the half year after I agreed to divorce.

"Firstly, I don't want the family property, car and savings, but O'Connor Family should give me an additional subsidy of one hundred forty thousand dollars as well as the personal subsidy of twenty-seven thousand five hundred dollars your mom just mentioned." Although Zayn did not agree immediately, he did not object, because I knew that the O'Connor Family was more than capable of paying one hundred forty thousand dollars.

"Secondly, I want 30% of the company's equity ...."

"No way!"

Before I could finish speaking, Gretta could not sit still anymore. "This is the company left by Zayn's father and it has nothing to do with you. Why do you want 30% equity? Are you shameless?"

"If it doesn't work, then forget it. Let's just keep dragging it out until Felicya's child becomes an illegitimate child."

Zayn was so angry that his face dark and said, "You're so cruel! What's the benefit for you my child has become an illegitimate child?"

My mother-in-law slapped me in the face and cursed, "You've really shown your true colors. From the beginning, you've always been interested in my family's money. You're such a poor and miserable family, there's no one to support you!"

She wanted to slap me again, so I slapped her back.

"How dare you hit me?!" She was shocked. Seeing that, Zayn wanted to hit me, but he did not dare.

Cih! What a cowardly man!

"I don't care if you insult me, but I won't let you insult my family!" I emphasized these words firmly. "I have evidence that your son cheated on me. He is the one at fault. If we go to court, both of the house and the car will be awarded to me. The market value of this house is at least one million one hundred twenty thousand dollars. It will be bad for you if you provoke me."

After a moment of silence, Zayn said, "Alright, how about this, I'll give you another twenty-seven thousand five hundred dollars, a total of one hundred ninety-five thousand dollars, but I can't give you the company equity. I beg you."

He stood between his mother and me, showing a pleading expression.

I pretended to think for two minutes before saying, "Okay. Let's go to the court now."

"Sign the agreement first and I'll go after I get the money," I said.

Zayn was worried that I would ask him for money in the future, so he added a clause at the end of the agreement. [From the date of signing of this agreement, Party A and Party B will no longer have any property disputes and may no longer request the division of any property.]

I smiled. This was exactly what I wanted. It prevented him from trying to take my money in the future.

Before signing, one hundred ninety-five thousand dollars would be credited in three installments immediately.

After getting the stamp from the court, I strode forward without any hesitation and did not return to that "house".

Carrying a small bag that I carried with me, I went to the high-end property I had long had my eye on and bought two houses.

One for self-occupancy and one for rent. The one for self-occupancy was over 200 square meters with four bedrooms and two living rooms on a fully furnished large flat level. The one for rent was 80 square meters, with two bedrooms and one living room.

I only paid the deposit, after all, I had not received the money for winning the lottery yet.
