My Ex-husband Went to Jail After we Divorced Chapter 1

Nicolas Shaw became the chairman of a publicly listed company. On that very day, he proposed a divorce.

In an interview, Nicolas credited all his current achievements to the unwavering support of his beloved, who stood by him all the time.

However, his beloved wasn't me but his colleague, Gillian Ford. She was suffering from a terminal illness.

To treat Gillian, Nicolas spared no expense to hire a reclusive surgeon to lead the procedure. But he didn't realize that the medical genius he desperately sought was me.

He thought he had secured the support of the Ford Pharmaceutical Group, but a month later, I appeared on stage as a special consultant for the Ford Pharmaceutical Group to be interviewed.

A reporter asked me, "Dr. Sini, it's said that you've been out of the medical field for years. May I ask what prompted your return to the medical team?"

I glanced at Nicolas, who looked utterly shocked.

I replied, "My husband paid a lot of money for me to perform surgery on his lover."

"Lorna, Nicolas openly displayed affection with his mistress during a live-streamed interview," Julie Ward, my friend, said angrily on the phone.

On TV, Nicolas was wearing the suit I meticulously picked for him. He was accepting an interview in the studio.

The host asked admiringly, "Mr. Shaw, what are you most proud of as the youngest chairman in the medical industry?"

Nicolas's smile broadened. "I am most proud of my lover. Though she battles a terminal illness, her strength is unwavering, and she has never left me. It's her support and companionship that have brought me to where I am today."

The host applauded with admiration, and the live audience erupted in excitement instantly.

"A remarkable and devoted guy!"

"The perfect gentleman!"

"Trust Mr. Shaw's integrity! Support his new products!"

Seeing these comments, I couldn't help but laugh.

Nicolas quickly rose to fame by crafting a persona as a devoted husband, which boosted the company's stock price.

Yet the "wife" he cherished wasn't me, who stood by him from nothing, but Gillian, the heiress of the Ford Pharmaceutical Group.

As soon as the broadcast ended, Nicolas called me. "Lorna, let's get a divorce."

I stubbornly asked, "Do you remember the promises you made when we got married?"

I played a recording from the day we got married. Nicolas had said to me, "Lorna, you are my love forever. Once my company makes money, I'll give you the chairman's position. I want to cherish and protect you forever."

Nicolas was surprised and said, "You kept that recording?"

It was once my most cherished memory. How could I not keep it?

But it seemed that I had mistaken trash for treasure.

I sneered, "If those who support you heard this, what would happen to your persona as a good guy? Would they still dare to buy products from a fraud like you?"

Nicolas's tone turned impatient. "The company is in a growth phase and desperately needs a good public image and resources. Lorna, don't mess around at such a critical time."

Was I messing around?

Nicolas's voice carried a threat. "Lorna, if you insist on doing this, I'll freeze all your bank accounts. You won't even be able to afford basic living expenses. You're just a housewife now, without a job or savings. You're nothing and have no right to negotiate with me."

I was nothing?

I laughed aloud and said, "Nicolas, three years ago, you had nothing. I gave up my job to help you find clients. Why didn't you say I was messing around then?"

Nicolas suddenly fell silent.

I continued, "You landed your first major contract after I pleaded with my professor to pass this opportunity to you, which allowed you to access a larger market. Why didn't you say I was nothing back then?"

"You did help me back then, but now..."

"But now I wasn't as valuable as Gillian. Right? So you abandoned me without hesitation?"

"I just..."

"What do you want to say? You were just eager to gain the Ford family's resources, so you are doing everything to earn Gillian's trust and affection. You even went as far as spending fifty million to hire Dr. Sini for her treatment."

"You..." Nicolas paused before saying, "How do you know?"

Of course, I knew everything, because I was Dr. Sini, whom he went through great lengths to look for.

A few seconds later, Nicolas gave me an ultimatum. "Lorna, leave my place within three days. If you refuse to divorce, I'll have to file a lawsuit."

"Not a chance!" I said, enunciating each word, "I can't wait to divorce you right now. I'll move out today."

I hung up the phone and quickly packed my clothes and belongings into a suitcase.

Nicolas's assistant delivered me the divorce papers. After signing them, I pulled my suitcase and walked out of the place that had trapped me for three years.

It was time to put an end to the marriage I had fought desperately to keep for three years.

The elevator doors opened, and I saw a determined version of myself reflected in the elevator mirror.

Nicolas was like a festering wound on my body. Although there might be some lingering feelings after three years, I knew well that I must break free from him.

As a doctor, I had saved countless patients. It was time to rescue myself now and become the true self of Lorna Norris.

I woke up in a blindingly white hotel penthouse with a throbbing headache and the taste of betrayal in my mouth. The last thing I remembered was my stepsister, Cathie, handing me a flute of champagne at the charity gala with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. Now, a tall, dangerously handsome man walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his hips. On the nightstand sat a stack of hundred-dollar bills. My stepmother had finally done it—she drugged me and staged a scandal with a hired escort to destroy my reputation and my future. "Aisha! Is it true you spent the night with a gigolo?" The shouts of a dozen reporters echoed through the heavy oak door as camera flashes exploded through the peephole. My phone lit up with messages showing my bank accounts were already frozen. My father was invoking the 'morality clause' in my mother’s trust fund, and my fiancé had already released a statement dumping me to marry my stepsister instead. I was trapped, penniless, and being hunted by the press for a scandal I hadn't even participated in. My own family had sold me out for a payday, and the man standing in front of me was the only witness who could prove I was innocent—or finish me off for good. I didn't have time to cry. According to the fine print of the trust, I had thirty days to prove my "rehabilitation" through a legal marriage or I would lose everything. I tracked the man down to a coffee shop the next morning, watching him take a thick envelope of cash from a wealthy older woman. I sat across from him and slid a napkin with a $50,000 figure written on it. "I need a husband. Legal, paper-signed, and convincing." He looked at the number, then at me, a slow, crooked smile spreading across his face. I thought I was hiring a desperate gigolo to save my inheritance. I had no idea I was actually proposing to Dominic Fields, the reclusive billionaire shark who was currently planning a hostile takeover of my father’s entire empire.

The heavy thud of the release stamp was the only goodbye I got from the warden after five years in federal prison. I stepped out into the blinding sun, expecting the same flash of paparazzi bulbs that had seen me dragged away in handcuffs, but there was only a single black limousine idling on the shoulder of the road. Inside sat my mother and sister, clutching champagne and looking at my frayed coat with pure disgust. They didn't offer a welcome home; instead, they tossed a thick legal document onto the table and told me I was dead to the city. "Gavin and I are getting engaged," my sister Mia sneered, flicking a credit card at me like I was a stray dog. "He doesn't need a convict ex-fiancée hanging around." Even after I saved their lives from an armed kidnapping attempt by ramming the attackers off the road, they rewarded me by leaving me stranded in the dirt. When I finally ran into Gavin, the man who had framed me, he pinned me against a wall and threatened to send me back to a cell if I ever dared to show my face at their wedding. They had stolen my biotech research, ruined my name, and let me rot for half a decade while they lived off my brilliance. They thought they had broken me, leaving me with nothing but an expired chapstick and a few old photos in a plastic bag. What they didn't know was that I had spent those five years becoming "Dr. X," a shadow consultant with five hundred million dollars in crypto and a secret that would bring the city to its knees. I wasn't just a victim anymore; I was a weapon, and I was pregnant with the heir they thought they had erased. I walked into the Melton estate and made an offer to the most powerful man in New York. "I'll save your grandfather's life," I told Horatio Melton, staring him down. "But the price is your last name. I'm taking back what's mine, and I'm starting with the man who thinks he's marrying my sister."
