"These shoes might pinch a bit at first, but you'll get used to them if you wear them more."
"As for the dress and jewelry Silas mentioned, I'll have Aunt May bring them to you."
"Before you, Silas brought back nine other girls. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask them. They live on the third floor and your room is the last one on the right."
In our ten years of marriage, the number of women Silas had brought back could have formed his own harem at home.
Tall ones, short ones, fat ones, thin ones, innocent ones, glamorous ones, aloof ones, lively ones – he had them all.
Rumor had it outside that he wanted to be like an ancient king and gather the twelve beauties in his home.
Sadly, I didn't have that fortune; I wouldn't be one of those beauties.
I patted the invisible dust on my shoes, got up and walked barefoot towards the door.
Unfortunately, before I could even step out, a strong force from behind yanked me back.
"Juliette, if you're leaving, then leave clean. Every single thing on your body was bought with my money."
My bare feet seemed to be stepping on the ice at that moment and even my breathing trembled.
"You want me to strip?"
Silas raised his eyebrows. His eyes seemed to see through me.
"When your family went bankrupt, didn't your mother strip you naked and put you on my bed? You leave the same way you came!"
"Or do you regret it? That's fine, kneel and put her shoes on and I'll forgive you."
The group of people behind Silas laughed so hard that they fell backward.
It wasn't long after Silas and I got together that the Spencers went bankrupt and my father jumped off a building, ending up in a coma.
My mother, afraid the Gill Family wouldn't help us, drugged both Silas and me. Later, she tried her best to make a big fuss about the incident and force the Gills to take responsibility.
That night was the beginning of all my humiliation.
It also completely ended the relationship between Silas and me when we were young.
Silas was forced to marry me and on the wedding night, he brought a woman home to humiliate me.
He did everything right in front of me. Even the condom wrapper, I was the one who tore it open and handed it to him.
I was the one who squatted on the floor, cleaning up the entire mess bit by bit.
I lived such a humble life for ten years.
Now, I couldn't live like this anymore.
"I'll take it off."
