Chapter 1: Divorce

“You tell me, what use are you?! All you can do is write those trashy rogue web novels! You even lied to me back then, saying you had eighty thousand in savings! Being with you is the worst luck I’ve had in eight lifetimes. If I’d known it would be like this, I never would have been fooled by your sweet talk! I think you’ll be a poor loser for your whole life!” A young woman in a light blue elegant long dress scolded, her face dark with anger.

She stretched out her right hand, her short, chubby fingers pointing straight at Ethan Bolton’s forehead, her manner extremely domineering.

“Sigh—enough, Little Linda, you’re both still young. Even though he doesn’t have much money now, he’s still been good to you—” came a somewhat hoarse voice. It was an elderly-looking woman, her face dark and thin, filled with helplessness and heartache.

“Good to me, huh! Mom, you don’t need to say any more. I don’t want to stay in this house any longer! The child—I’ve already gotten rid of it!” the young woman said coldly again, her ruthless expression chilling to the bone.

“The child, you got rid of it?” Ethan Bolton, who had been silent, suddenly narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing and then vanishing, his gaze sinking into shadow.

His voice was calm, heavy, and a bit cold.

“If I didn’t get rid of it, how would you support it? With those childish rogue novels you write? Low income and unstable! And that broken rural house with two piles of straw? This poor, desolate mountain place—can you expect it to raise a good child?” The woman called Little Linda shouted snobbishly, all her former gentleness and virtue completely gone.

“Little Linda, did you really get rid of the child?” The elderly woman’s voice trembled, as if she couldn’t bear such a blow.

“Yes! I really did! A few days ago, I lied to Wufeng and said I was going back to my parents’ house, and used three thousand for a painless abortion! I’ve decided, a woman’s youth is always short, and we all pay for our childishness. I’m not the same Little Linda I used to be. That’s it! I’ve already bought my ticket, Brother Grant will take me back to my parents’ house tomorrow, you don’t need to go.” Linda Howard glanced coldly at Ethan Bolton and said indifferently.

“Mom, go rest for a while. I want to talk to Little Linda.”

Ethan Bolton looked at Little Linda, then turned to his mother Diana Parker, sighing softly in his heart, and spoke in a calm tone.

“Sigh, Wufeng, Little Linda, you two have a good talk. This old woman won’t disturb you anymore.” As she spoke, Diana Parker’s face turned pale, her eyes full of disappointment. The blow of losing the child seemed to have taken all the life from her.

Diana Parker walked away shakily. Though not yet fifty, she looked more like a frail, sickly woman in her sixties.

A sharp pain stabbed Ethan Bolton’s heart, and an unbearable anger suddenly surged within him. The silence and tolerance of the past had completely vanished.

The bottom line—a person’s bottom line, even a very low one—had been crossed!

Before this, from three years of high school, four years of college, two years of work after graduation, and a year of marriage—a total of ten years!

In those ten years, Ethan Bolton had always done his utmost to care for and love Linda Howard, giving up all his dignity and pride to win her favor! Yet in the end, this was the result!

At this moment, even if Linda Howard pointed at his head and cursed him even more viciously, he wouldn’t argue with her. But now, she had quietly gotten rid of the child she’d been carrying for two months—this, he could not accept!

Because this child was only conceived after his mother begged Linda Howard again and again, and not only that, the child was also his father’s hope during his illness. A month ago, when he learned that Little Linda was finally pregnant, his father Brian Bolton passed away with a satisfied smile.

And for the sake of Linda Howard getting pregnant, Ethan Bolton’s father Brian Bolton had forced himself to endure his fatal illness for a full twenty days—just to wait for the news that his daughter-in-law was expecting!

Thinking of all this, and how his father’s last wish had vanished into thin air, Ethan Bolton suddenly felt that the woman before him was truly hideous!
