The Truth Behind My Divorce After Six Childfree Years

Being in prison, I was no match for him and had to leave with nothing.

Michael perfectly inherited his father’s genes—decisive, ruthless, and calculating.

He didn’t force me to kneel before Fiona; he simply left me room to maneuver, hoping that after suffering in society, I would obediently return to beg him.

At that time, whether I became his wife or concubine, it was all up to him.

Three months later, I was released from prison. Michael and Fiona had already held their wedding.

A custom-made, diamond-encrusted wedding dress from France, the starry sky setting of Silverlake Estate—it was breathtakingly beautiful, showing the owner’s utmost care.

Seeing the wedding gift he once gave me transformed into someone else’s bridal chamber, I burned it down.

...When Frederick Blake returned, I was still lost in thought.

A warm hand wrapped around me from behind, just like when he took my hand as we stepped across the ocean years ago.

“Director Miller called me, we’re having a baby.” The man nestled contentedly in my ear, his warm breath lingering around it.

I turned and snuggled into his warm embrace, softly humming in agreement, closing my eyes to breathe and compose myself.

“I’m thinking of throwing a celebration banquet tomorrow, inviting my older sister and the others to join in the fun.”

I smiled; it had indeed been a long time since I’d seen my older sister.

Back then, she was still my client, embroiled in a divorce battle. She was a tearful, resentful woman then; who would have thought she’d become a renowned female CEO in Everton City?

It was because of my tireless investigation that she won her case, and we became like sisters.

When I was sent to prison again, it was she who paid for my bail, took me away from that painful place, and introduced me to her younger brother who was busy expanding into new markets abroad.

Frederick acted immediately, sitting on the bed with my arm around him while making a phone call with a grin.

Before long, all the relatives in the Blake family, including the big yellow dog across the ocean, knew about it.

Three days later, at Starmoon Manor, all the prominent figures in Everton City arrived, and the hall was piled high with flowers and gifts.

When my eldest sister arrived, everyone was surrounding me, teasing me to see what gift Frederick had brought.

I unwrapped the package, which was taller than a person, and discovered it was a blood-red jade coral.

As everyone gasped in surprise, my eldest sister’s teasing voice rang out,

“You brat, you went to the trouble of lighting a sky lantern to take a picture of this, just to win...”

“Good wife, no wonder you wouldn’t give me what I wanted.” I turned around and smiled,

“Big sister,…” Our eyes met, and I realized Michael was holding Fiona, staring at me in shock.

He was holding a gift.

“Nicole, you’re the sister-in-law Mr. Blake mentioned?”
