I paused, suddenly remembering the time when she asked me to quit my job at a top law firm and become a small legal advisor at her newly opened company.
At that time, I was still the eldest son of the Xavier family, and she was just a poor student receiving subsidies.
My action of living in a humble room for the sake of the one I love was jokingly called "bravely pursuing love" by my friends.
Luna also smiled and said that we were a "two-way couple". We even went to various temples to pray for marriage charms, praying that we can meet again in the next life and fall in love again.
However, the marriage charms she had prayed for were burned to ashes five years ago by Ethan's unextinguished cigarette butts.
I was so angry that I wanted to fire Ethan , but she said lightly: "It's just waste paper used by those Taoist priests who pretend to be gods to cheat people out of money. There's nothing precious about it. It was easy to be deceived when I was young, but not now."
Because I have asthma, it was she who personally ordered that no one was allowed to smoke in the villa.
At that time, I didn't want to admit that Luna no longer loved me, so I stubbornly stayed by her side.
But she just watched me indifferently as my face turned red from being choked by the smoke and dust, and she was only concerned about protecting Ethan who was pretending to be unconscious.
I helped her rise to a high position step by step, and was willing to step behind the scenes and give her everything, even my own career.
But she was so proud of it that she even tried to use it as a means to control me.
Is this the girl I have loved for so many years?
Seeing that I didn't move for a long time, Luna sneered and said, "Don't use divorce as a trick to play hard to get. I don't fall for it. If you don't want to be my husband, there are many people who are willing to do so!"
I looked coldly at the two people standing side by side: "There are indeed many people who are willing. Isn't the one next to you waiting to take the position?"
Luna looked unhappy, but Ethan pulled her into his arms: "I have indeed been waiting for her, so what? She has come this far by herself, you are just a gigolo who spends women's money, what qualifications do you have to act in a pretentious manner?"
"I just can't stand you doubting her! And I can't stand your petty suspiciousness!" She didn't refute and tacitly agreed with Ethan 's words of " standing up for the weak".
It was obvious that she and Ethan secretly obtained a marriage certificate whose authenticity was unknown, and that she and Ethan were having an ambiguous relationship, but now I'm the one who's suspicious.
It's really heartbreaking when a woman changes her heart.
At this point, no matter how much I love you, I can't continue this marriage.
