Later that evening, Clarissa and Clyde were on their way to the government agency for a divorce.

Clyde had tried to make her see reasons but Clarissa was adamant and demanded it wholeheartedly.

On the way, Clarissa kept on mopping about how Clyde had been unable to give her the kind of life she deserved. Even after a year of marriage she had nothing to show that she was married to a 'Man'. She had talked to Rachael while she was at her home.

Rachael had pointed out the fact that ever since she was married, not only had she been left behind by their classmates, but her societal hierarchy had plummeted to rock bottom. She had agreed to it when Rachael had laid out these facts in front of her.

“How can you be so useless, and yet you expect me to remain with you!? I'd say 'in your dreams' but then again, I'm not sure if you even have dreams.” Clarissa spoke harshly to Clyde as they both sat in the cab which was conveying them to the agency building.

The cab driver had a frown on his face as he too didn't like the statement Clarissa made.

“Clarissa, please reconsider. Things will get better.. Tomorrow might bring a surprise of its own. Trust me on this Honey.” Clyde still tried to change the mind of his wife. He truly loved Clarissa.

At first she used to be onboard with things changing for the better, but after she went to her school reunion two months ago, she became a totally different person.

She.. changed totally. She started by nagging him about getting a new job, and then started asking for money to rent a cab that will convey her to work every morning and back home after work, things had escalated to this point.

“Tomorrow!? Can you listen to yourself Clyde!?.. Tomorrow!? What do you think tomorrow will bring!? Oh you think the fictional gods like in the movies will open up the heavens and toss down a whole lot of resources to you!? How delusional of you!” Clarissa sneered at him.

Her annoyance peaked, and she began to think that she should have divorced Clyde before now. How could she not have seen how delusional the man she married was.

“That's not what..” Clyde tried to explain.

“Not what you mean!? If you're going to talk about getting a new job and getting a promotion, then don't bother, that ship has sailed and I am not that stupid to believe in your words anymore.” Clarissa sneered as she rolled her eyes at him.

“Clarissa..” Clyde felt hurt. He kept his voice low.

“Don't Clarissa me young man! A year of marriage and rather than growing, I'm actually reducing! My societal status has plummeted to rock bottom…While my classmates own Porsche and BMWs, I still take the public transport to work! Public transport Clyde! While my classmates live in an incredible mansion, I actually live in a shack! A goddamn shack that's located in a dirty muddy neighborhood. And while they are all married to rich and wealthy men, I have to settle down with you for nothing!” Clarissa said, almost screaming.

Clyde couldn't hide his embarrassment when he saw the cab driver glance at him with pity in his eyes. Clyde had to avert his gaze to the scenery of Marula town.

He had left the splendours of Gold city and came to this town to live an ordinary, peaceful and happy life.. away from the schemes of the Royal family and the battles in the military.. yet he was here on a battlefield of its own.. and he was losing, or safe to say; He lost.

Clarissa's words cut deep into his bones that he felt so little. He, the famous god of war, was now called 'a good for nothing'.

“We're here.” the cab driver said as he pulled up in front of a building; MARULA CITY COUPLES DEPARTMENT.

He kept his eyes straight as he felt annoyance on behalf of Clyde. He was annoyed that Clyde was still begging his wife to stay with him, wasn't it clear to him that his wife no longer loved him? The cab driver felt indignation towards Clyde.

“Please Clarissa, reconsider. Trust me, you will not regret the decision. Please love, reconsider.” Clyde calmly said as they stepped out of the cab.

“We're not having this conversation again!” Clarissa said and angrily stomped into the building, Clyde had no choice but to follow behind her.

“If I was this man, I'd say good riddance to this awful shrew of a woman. Hmph!” the cab driver muttered as he drove off.

“Mrs Clarissa Tresslar, just sign here.” the man in charge of handling divorce said to Clarissa, he was around fifty years or so, with a bald hair trimmed beard. Clarissa immediately signed her signature and pushed the paper to Clyde.

“Sign it Clyde, I don't wish to stay here any longer than I have to!”

Clyde sighed and then reluctantly signed as well.

“Goodbye Clyde.” Clarissa said in a tone laced with disgust, then she hurriedly left the office as if staying there will get her infected with poverty.

Sigh!

“Do not worry young man, I'm sure you will find a better woman soon enough. There are many women out there who won't bother about your shortcomings, you just haven't found that right one yet.” the middle-aged man tried to console Clyde.

Clyde showed a sad smile in appreciation to the man's attempt to lighten his mood.

“Thank you sir.” Clyde replied.

“I once had a wife who didn't see me as a nice fit for her. She had come from a nice family and I was of a humble background.

“We got married due to the love we had for one another. But two years later, she demanded for a divorce, guess what? She had found someone else.

“Women who suddenly find faults in you and request for separation have one thing in common; they have found someone else and seek to ditch their former lover.” the middle-aged man said and went on to fix up the register and papers.

Clyde then stood up and left the office as well. He didn't bother going after Clarissa as he knew it was pretty much useless. But then how would this end?

    When Clyde got out of the building, he found Clarissa waiting for a cab. He walked up to her. He sighed in his heart. He could not believe his marriage ended just like that.He understood Clarissa's worries; women liked the typical strong alpha rich men. Men strong enough to shield them from harm, and also rich enough to provide their needs. He was strong no doubt, but he wasn't rich (at least in this fake life of his).This was the reason Clarissa left him. He bore no animosity towards her, despite what the old man inside the courthouse had said.“Clarissa, I wish you the best in life. I hope you find someone who will love you as much as I do, and who will take good care of you. You truly deserve to live a good life.” Clyde said with sincerity.He truly loved Clarissa, if things were in his power, he would have told her about his real identity a long time ago, but sadly he couldn't say anything about it.

He now knew exactly why Clarissa suddenly asked for a divorce; Clarissa was cheating on him, and when Seth couldn't bear to keep it a secret anymore, Clarissa then demanded for a divorce.. it all made sense now!He had been cuckolded without even knowing. When did it start? How long have they been having sex behind his back? Three months? Four months?Anger and hatred welled up in his heart for these two in front of him.

    “What young master!?” Seth questioned manager Howard.“How can you call this lowly slum dweller 'young master'? Don't be deceived by this conman. He's nothing but a poor and wretched slum dweller.” Seth's frustration was already piled up.“Are saying I don't know who my Boss is?” Mister Howard questioned with a frown on his face. He was clearly angry at Seth's rambling, but this only excited Clyde more.'The higher they are, the bigger they fall.'Clyde felt someone staring at him, he turned around and saw Clarissa's eyes on him. She had this thoughtful expression on her face as if she was finally comprehending all that was happening.“Your Boss!? What Boss!? Let me elaborate these to you Mister Howard! That man sitting there is the full definition of poverty. If he was rich enough to buy this building, then he won't be living in that shack at the slums!” Seth then turned to Clarissa.“If he was so rich, it won't be easy for me to get under the pant of his wife!

    Unknown to Clarissa, the gift she called trash were actually the top notch, best of best, out of this world, items that money could buy. It's difficult to believe the fact that a billionaire will leave the life of luxury, and then decide to settle in the slums. What kind of a life will that be? But Clyde did it.. he chose this life for a reason. Clyde had gotten a gold card with black diamond engraved on it, this card was only for the wealthiest in the Zizou Empire. This gold card had no spending limits and could contain billions of trium (the currency of the Zizou Empire. One Trium is equivalent to One dollar. In the modern world, Clyde will be one of the richest men there is. Another gift he had prepared was the state of the art smart-wristband, which after facial recognition will allow Clarissa the access to learn about his real identity as the lord of the Zizou Empire's military forces. Clyde's identity was known only to a few. Even in the military, only a handful of military
