Chapter 1 Before Divorce
Lorance had loved Christian for seven years.
She had a crush on him from her teenage years until her university days, so her biggest wish was to be his wife.
Alas, Christian despised her the moment she married into his family.
Back then, his grandfather was critically ill and needed a joyous occasion to hopefully ward off the bad luck. As luck would have it, she was selected to be Lucian's wife.
Her greedy father and stepmother immediately agreed to the marriage.
She could still remember how delighted she was as she waited for the night of her wedding.
Yet, when Christian showed up, he bore a disgusted expression. "Lorance, I'll have you know that the person I want to marry is Aubree Pearson. I never wanted to marry you! Only Aubree has the right to be my wife. You're not good enough for me,"he declared.
Lorance knew that Christian wasn't obliged to love her.
However, she still held on to the hope that the man would warm up to her one day.
In the past three years of their marriage, she did her best to be a good and caring wife.
Every night, she'd prepare dinner so he could come home to freshly cooked meals.
No matter how late it was, she would only go to bed in peace after his return.
If he got drunk at social events, she would take care of him meticulously instead of leaving him in someone else's hands.
Whenever he got ill or hurt, she would be more worried than anyone else.
Every winter, she would switch on the heater and fill the bathtub with hot water for him. In the morning, she'd wake up earlier than usual to warm his clothes up so he wouldn't feel the cold.
Nevertheless, he never loved her, and he never would.
The day before yesterday was Lorance's birthday, but Christian went to the hospital to keep Andrew company.
It was then that finally understood that her one-sided feelings would never be reciprocated.
She would never make Christian fall for her, for his heart belonged to another woman.
Thus, Lorance decided to give up.
Christian only roused by ten in the morning.
The first thing he wanted to do after getting up was to choke e to her death.
Christian was the CEO of Farwell Group, known for his acuteness. No one in the corporate world was his match. Thus, he had never fallen for someone else's trap.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect to fall for that woman's trap!
Simmering with anger, he glanced around the room but didn't see Lorance anywhere. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted the document on the bedside table.
"What is that?"
Christian brows furrowed as he picked up the document with the words "Divorce Agreement"printed in bold text on the front page.
His gaze narrowed dangerously.
First, she resorted to that despicable trick to force me to have sex with her, and now she wants a divorce. Ha! How many tricks does she have up her sleeves?
Christian refused to believe that Lorance wanted to divorce him for real.
Getting to his feet, he put on his clothes and strode downstairs furiously. "Did you see Lorance?"he asked the butler, Lance.
Taken aback, Lance replied swiftly, "Mr. Farwell, Mrs. Farwell left home with her luggage before dawn."
Hearing that, Christian halted in his tracks in surprise.
