[Antwan just transferred me here, and he's very pleased with my work.]

Reading these messages, I could imagine the smile on Jennifer's face.

She sent a picture of Antwan blowing on some oatmeal, looking like he was about to feed it to Jennifer.

[Antwan heard I'm pregnant and even took time off work to take care of me.]

[He said, 'If I can't take care of my employees, what kind of CEO am I?']

[Ms. Walton, you're so lucky. Antwan must treat you very well.]

Seeing this, I was furious. I remembered a few months ago when I was sick. Antwan just came to see me and left. His mom visited me several times, but he barely said a word of comfort.

He claimed he was too busy with work, but now I knew it was all lies.

We ended up having a big fight and parted ways angrily. That time, it was my mom who traveled a long way to take care of me.

Now I understood why my mom was so angry back then, while I was still sympathetic to Antwan's busy schedule.

[What do you mean?] I asked.

[Just what a secretary means.]

She replied and then stopped responding.

She had some nerve in sending those messages to make me imagine all sorts of things.

As I was thinking, a message from Antwan came in. [Where are you? Didn't you say you wanted a divorce?]

[My lawyer found some issues with the divorce agreement. It needs to be revised,] I replied.

Indeed, there were issues, and they weren't small.

[Sue Walton, you're doing this on purpose, aren't you? Sixty percent of the post-marriage assets isn't enough for you?]

[I warn you, don't ask for more. Otherwise, you won't get a penny.]

Reading these messages, I was stunned. Did Antwan think I cared about his money?

I immediately called my mom and told her I wanted to divorce Antwan.

After a year of marriage, I was tired of seeing his face. There was nothing to miss.

"What's wrong, sweetie? Did Antwan bully you?" my dad asked, grabbing the phone, his voice urgent.

"Nothing, I'll tell you when I get back. We don't need to do business with him anymore." That was my main goal.

Hearing my parents' voices, I couldn't hold back my tears. They welled up in my eyes.

Antwan took over his family's company and performed just okay. It was our family's reputation that kept some suppliers from renewing their contracts.

So, I didn't understand where Antwan got the nerve to talk like that.
