Chapter 1

I had been with Ethan for twelve years. I stood by him from nothing to the top of his business empire.

I thought I should have become his wife long ago.

But at Whitmore Corporation's twelve-year anniversary gala, he publicly proposed to Vivian in front of everyone.

My eyes turned red as I confronted him, demanding an explanation.

Ethan said coldly, "Vivian's body is fragile. She can't handle my needs. For the past twelve years, you were nothing more than a tool for my release. Now get lost."

So I was just a toy to warm his bed.

But I had been there for every step of his success. Staying up all night with him to negotiate deals. Even selling my design proposals to bail him out. Now it had all become the biggest joke.

I even had a miscarriage. Our first child. Because of overwork.

The security guards roughly dragged me out of the gala hall. I fell pathetically into the rain.

Trembling, I pulled out my phone and dialed that number. My voice was hoarse but resolute.

"I want Whitmore Corporation to go bankrupt. Immediately."
