The Day I Divorced My HusbandChapter 1
In the third year of our marriage,Julie Coleman's husband,Tom Wellington,had an affair.
After deceiving Tom into signing the marriage and resignation agreement,Julie contacted her father,an American billionaire,"Dad,I’m divorced.I’m going back to the United States with the baby.”
"And please take back the seven and a half million dollars that I begged to secretly invest in him."
She and Tom had met in college,when he was still a penniless young man dreaming of starting a business and making it big.
Against her family's wishes,Julie secretly invested the seven and a half million dowry money that her family had prepared for Tom.
To be with him,she severed ties with her family,relinquished her status as heiress and stayed by his side as his personal assistant.
But since Tom had cheated on her,she would not let him have a single penny.
Her father asked in a serious tone,"Why do you suddenly want a divorce?Tom has cheated on you,hasn't he?"
Though it was phrased as a question,her father's tone held absolute certainty.
Julie clenched her fists tightly while tears streamed down her face.Even now,the thought of the past still brought shivers down her spine,as if the hurt were fresh.
A month ago,when Tom was away on business,she discovered she was pregnant.
After accompanying her to the prenatal checkup,her best friend couldn't help but warn her,“So many men cheat these days,especially artists like your husband.They're the most promiscuous circle.”
"Back then,you not only concealed your identity to marry Tom but also invested both money and effort for him.Now that you're pregnant,he won't even show his face.”
Facing her friend's disapproval,Julie only chuckled and defended Tom,"All men in this world will cheat,except Tom."
"Besides,he doesn't even know I'm pregnant.He's just away on a business trip."
No sooner had the words left her mouth,Julie lifted her eyes and spotted a familiar figure across the street.It was Tom and he was in a woman's arms.
They were kissing passionately at the hotel entrance.He cradled her face tenderly as his hand slowly slipped beneath her clothes.The woman's face turned crimson.
Julie froze.A chill spread over her and her face burned in humiliation.
She had abandoned everything for Tom and yet he cheated with his student,Stacy Miller.
