Chapter 1

On our seventh wedding anniversary, I set up a candlelit dinner at home, waiting for my wife. But she never showed up, and she wouldn't answer my calls.

It wasn't until I received an abnormal vibration alert from the car tracker that I checked the garage. Down in the basement, she was hooking up with her young assistant.

After that, I filed for divorce without hesitation.

She sneered at me. "You're just a live-in husband working under me. How will you even survive without my money?"

Not only did I survive, but I also bought out her entire company and became her new boss.

Desperate, she broke down in tears and begged me. "Please believe me, Chase. Zander didn't actually go all the way in that day!"

Seeing Nona tangled naked with Zander in the car made the blood in my veins freeze.

I never imagined that the vibration alert on my phone would lead to this.

The two of them were actually having sex in the backseat of our car!

Fury consumed me, and I rushed over, slamming my fists against the window.

A second later, Nona shoved the door open and slapped me hard across the face.

"Are you out of your damn mind?"

"Can't you see I'm busy here?"

My cheek burned from the strike.

Busy? What a sick excuse!

We had been married for seven years, and today was our anniversary.

How could she justify her cheating with such shameless arrogance?

"Nona, I want a divorce!" I roared at her.

In all seven years of our marriage, this was the first time I had ever lost my temper with her.

I lunged forward, trying to yank the car door open to beat Zander.

"Stop throwing a damn tantrum!"

Nona struck me violently across the head with the sharp heel of her shoe.

Feeling the sharp pain on my scalp and warm blood dripping down, I turned to look at her in disbelief.

This was the woman I had loved for seven years.

She had attacked me repeatedly, all to protect a low-level assistant.
