2025-04-22 11:02:10Two years ago, Alex gazed into Sophia’s eyes and felt like the luckiest man on earth.
From the moment he met her, her kindness, beauty, and warmth captivated him.
Whenever she smiled, it was as though all his pain dissolved and color flooded back into his monochrome world.
He had lost his family and watched his only little sister slip into a coma, a tragedy that crushed any sense of joy he once had.
Yet, seeing Sophia care for his sister so tenderly reminded him that goodness still existed and that he deserved a sliver of happiness with the woman who brought light back into his life.
From the day they married, Sophia became his entire universe.
He treasured her wholeheartedly, quietly supporting her from the shadows and helping her rise to become the new CEO in the region.
He believed their bond was unbreakable, that no circumstance could tear them apart.
Nothing in the world could break it.
“Sophia,” Alex’s voice trembled, “Don’t you think we deserve a second chance?”
His hand trembled as he slid the divorce papers across the table.
“Anything but this. Please…”
Alex’s eyes were shattered glass—bleeding regret, heartbreak, the kind of pain that screamed without sound.
Sophia felt them cut, but the pain only ignited her fury.
Tears burst free as her face twisted.
“If you didn’t want this, then why the hell did you try to rape Olivia!”
“Wasn’t I enough for you?” she cried, voice cracking.
“How could you do that to me? I gave you everything, Alex—everything!”
“I stood by you when people laughed, when they said I was wasting my life on a man with no job, no future. I shut them up. I believed in you. I loved you. I saw something worth saving when no one else did. And now you throw it back in my face with this?”
“You didn’t just break us, Alex. You burned everything that ever loved you to ash.”
Alex looked into her eyes and saw it—what was once love, now drowned in fear, pain, and betrayal.
Everything they had poured their hearts into, year after year, for the future they dreamed of… was falling apart, crumbling in silence, slipping through their hands like ash.
And yet—beneath all the wreckage—there was still love.
But love wasn’t enough anymore.
Not after this. Not with no future left to hold.
“Sophia… I didn’t try to rape her. Please… you have to believe me.”
“Enough, Alex. Stop lying.” Her voice shook with a sorrow that cut like a blade.
“You caused this problem, and now we have to face the consequences.”
She looked at him through pained eyes.
“I tolerated your lack of ambition. I embraced the rumors that you were just a stay-at-home husband. You cooked for me, massaged my shoulders after work, helped me in every way you could.”
“I was happy with my career and a loving husband… but then you betrayed me with Olivia.”
“Sophia,” Alex stepped forward, reaching out, but she flinched—fear flashing in her eyes.
“Don’t touch me!” she snapped, and her hand struck his cheek with a sharp crack that echoed through the room.
She froze, staring at her hand in disbelief, as if horrified by what she'd done… or what he’d made her become.
Then the tears came, soft at first, then breaking her apart as she backed away, retreating behind a wall he could no longer reach.
Alex didn’t move.
The sting on his face was nothing compared to the pain in his chest—the pain of watching the woman who once loved him now look at him like a stranger.
He understood that his betrayal—real or not—had inflicted a wound that went far deeper inside Sophia.
“Sophia,” he whispered, voice heavy with sorrow.
“I always believed marriage was once for a lifetime.”
She shook with sobs, tears clinging to her lashes.
“I believed it too, Alex. God, you have no idea how much I wanted to keep believing in us. I gave you my heart—every fragile piece of it—and you shattered it.”
“Sophia, I didn’t rape Olivia—”
“Enough!” she screamed, her voice sharp and breaking, like glass shattering.
“I don’t want your lies. I don’t want your words. I’ll never believe you again. Just… stop.”
Her eyes were distant now—cold, empty, filled with a quiet kind of pain that no longer shows itself.
Because part of her still wanted to believe him.
But the other part—stronger, louder—feared that believing would only invite another wound… deeper than the last.
She retreated deep inside herself, to that silent place where love once lived but now only pain remained.
A place he could no longer reach.
He swallowed the lump in his throat, his voice barely a whisper.
“So… what do you want from me now?”
She took a shuddering breath, forcing herself to sound strong.
“Sign the divorce papers, Alex.”
Her voice broke, the words trailing off into a silence heavy with heartbreak.
“Sophia…”
“There’s no more to discuss.” She wiped her tears, her expression turning resolute.
“I can’t accept you after what happened. Just sign these papers and let me salvage what’s left of my life.”
With trembling hands, Alex signed the divorce papers.
He felt a part of himself crumble with every stroke of the pen.
“I hope you’re happy,” he said softly.
“I’m not fucking happy!” Sophia yelled.
Their marriage—once they thought was as solid as an iron ship—had been just a paper boat all along.
And now it was tearing, sinking fast.
They could do nothing but watch.
And it hurt like hell.

Sophia seized the bank card in one swift move and shoved it across the table toward Alex.“There’s one million dollars tucked in there, enough to keep you satisfied for a lifetime.”“Treat it like the repayment for every favor you’ve ever done for me.”Alex stared at Sophia in silence for a moment before murmuring.“I don’t want your money.”“Just take it, and waste it on any woman who will have you. I’d hate to see you stoop so low that you become a rapist.”Alex stepped forward, brushing past Sophia.“Sophia, I’ve never needed money, and I’m telling you again—I never tried to rape Olivia. She’s lying.”He turned on his heel and stalked out the door.Outside, Cara leaned against the wall, arms folded, waiting with a scornful smirk.“Congratulations on cashing in a million dollars by ditching your wealthy wife,” she sneered.“Make good use of that pile of cash, but the second it’s gone, don’t you dare come crawling back to Sophia. I’m warning you—walk away and stay away.”Alex shot he

And... if I may, Sir, there’s something I would like to ask, if you’d grant me a moment.”Alex knew this man had spent years trying to reach him, offering gifts, never giving up.“Speak, Dupont.

“Jack… this isn’t the right place. Please. Let’s make out somewhere else—Ahh~~” the woman pleaded.“Why?”“If Alex finds out what we’re doing, he’ll expose our secret relationship!”Jack cut her off by pressing his lips against her neck.“Don’t worry, that weak slum must be slacking off somewhere as usual.”“Jack, I’m serious… ahh~~”“You never are,” he cut in, laughing low. “And you’re not honest.”Jack’s hand slid lower, and his expression twisted in pure, selfish ecstasy.“Look at you. Your body is much more honest than you—you’re already soaking wet.”Inside the luxurious, dimly lit bedroom of the Fairchild Mansion, silk sheets were twisted like snakes across the bed.The woman moaned softly, eyes glazed with desire, creamy skin exposed beneath a dress that had ridden up to the tops of her thighs.She and Jack were entangled on the bed, oblivious to the third person in the room.Hidden behind the recliner’s backrest, Alex Morningstar jerked upright as a long, pleasure‑soaked moan

Alex had never expected that Jack and Olivia were actually committing incest.And now, they were messing around in his bedroom. His and Sophia’s sacred space.He took a deep breath, suppressing the wave of disgust rising within him.He still couldn’t move at all due to his inner force being in turmoil, so he could only hope these two scoundrels would finish quickly and leave as soon as possible."Jack, I bet you’ve been fantasizing about riding Sophia again, haven’t you?”Letting out a long satisfied moan, Olivia suddenly asked.“Are you finally willing to help me?”Jack’s eyes lit up with excitement as his fingers rubbed across Olivia’s sweating busts.“Tell you what,” she continued between her moans.“I’ll help. But I want ten times the reward, and you wipe every single one of those damn videos you’ve got of me. No trace.”Although Olivia was unwilling to help Jack out, she had to eliminate all the leverage videos Jack had over her before her upcoming wedding.Betraying Sophia didn’

Jack didn’t slow. If anything, he got rougher.“So let him,” he hissed, driving deeper, making her cry out.“I bet that’s the best he can do. Let him see how I fuck while he lies there like a corpse.”Jack let out a cruel satisfied laugh while his eyes burned with a twisted joy.He had always envied and disdained Alex, not only because Alex was a nobody, but because he was a nobody who was often praised by Grandpa Fairchild and got to marry a beauty.While he, Jack, had been dismissed as nothing more than a burden and a drunken, womanizing waste.But now?Now, Alex was on the floor—broken, bleeding, helpless.And in Jack’s fractured mind, that meant something. That meant everything.“You watch, Alex,” he snarled through a twisted smile.“This is how I’m going to make your wife, my cousin — Sophia — scream wild too. I bet she’ll make a good screw.

“Just sign here… and you’ll get your damn million.”Cara’s voice was ice—sharp, reluctant, laced with venom.“Not because you deserve it. God knows you don’t. A rapist like you shouldn’t even get a shred of pity, let alone compensation.”She leaned closer, her glare unforgiving.“If it were up to me, you’d rot in a cell, not walk away with a check. But Ms. Fairchild… she insisted. So take the money. Sign the papers. And disappear—before I lose what little restraint I have left.”Alex almost laughed.He didn’t need any compensation.To repay Grandpa Fairchild, the money he’d secretly channelled into Sophia’s Fairchild Health & Beauty since his marriage with Sophia was worth a hundred times more than that.All he wanted was Sophia trusting him!“Bastard! Don’t you dare sneer at that money. You’ll never earn that in your lifetime. Don’t think I don’t know you’re trying to squeeze more out of Ms. Fairchild.

However...”Her tone dripped with disappointment."...I never imagined you’d go as far as raping my cousin. You’re truly disgusting—a complete disappointment. You can’t even manage to be a decent human being."Sophia’s voice grew calmer and calmer as she spoke but Alex could sense the fury hidden beneath.Alex was stunned.Sophia couldn’t have believed that rumor, could she?“Sophia, trust me, I didn’t do anything that those two accused me of, I can explain—”“Explain to me face
