Ethan finally caught up with me, his steps were firm and it seemed that he would not allow me to escape.

I knew clearly what he was thinking. At this critical moment of capital injection, any disturbance could cause trouble, and he would never allow such a thing to happen. He once said that what these southern entrepreneurs value most is character, and family relationships are a mirror that directly reflects character.

As Ethan stepped into the room, he looked around and couldn't help but sighed: "How much does it cost to rent such a good house this month?" I smiled and shook my head, but ripples appeared in my heart. This house is located in the city center and is worth tens of millions. My father secretly bought it for me the year I got married. In the past two years, our relationship has eased, and he asked someone to transfer the ownership. Not only that, I also own no less than ten properties in the south. I once thought that with these assets, even if Ethan 's company was in a recession, we could still make a comeback. However, now that I think about it, it's a good thing that I asked about gold jewelry in advance, so I didn't give him the opportunity to rise again.

Ethan sat upright on the sofa, as if waiting for my courtesy. He still thinks he has done nothing wrong. That confidence makes me feel both ridiculous and sad.

I looked at him and couldn't help laughing at the tie that didn't match his shirt. Over the years, every outfit he wore was carefully matched by me, but he gave all his love to Vivian.

"Grace, stop making trouble and come home with me." There was unquestionable firmness in his words.

I tried to shake his hand off, but he held it tighter, and my wrist was in pain. "Ethan, what are you doing!" I yelled angrily.

"I said, come home with me !" His tone became more determined.

I twisted my wrist and finally shook off his hand. "What's your reason for taking me home ?" I asked coldly.

He sneered: "What reason? We have been married for five years, we are a legal couple!" His eyes were firm, as if he was determined to win.

"How can a wife be like you, leaving without saying anything?" He said with a hint of reproach.

"Really? A legal couple?" I asked, but I already had the answer in my heart.

It wasn't until I threw out the marriage certificate that his expression suddenly changed. "You, you..." He looked at me in astonishment.

"I asked Lily to check, your legal wife is Vivian ." I watched his eyes change from horror to astonishment, but I felt an inexplicable relief in my heart. He refused to admit it and tried to make excuses. However, I had expected him to do so, so I took out the registration certificate sent by Lily . The three words Vivian appeared right after his name, and he finally changed his expression.

"Grace, listen to me, I didn't mean to lie to you." He began to hesitate and tried to explain. However, his explanation seemed to me to be a weak excuse.

I sneered: "So the jewelry I received over the years were fake, and the property certificates were fake, and you call this love?" My words were filled with sarcasm and disappointment.

Ethan refused to leave and kept asking me to go back. Perhaps he had forgotten that before I married him, I was also a serious doctoral student in a law school. I picked up the phone and said in a cold tone, "Ethan, if you don't leave, I'm going to call the police."
