Ding!
A message alert sounded.
[Please go to the hospital to donate blood as soon as possible.]
When Nicole saw this message, snazzynovel.com was stunned for a moment like snazzynovel.com had sustained a huge blow to snazzynovel.com chest. The sender’s name was “Hubby”.
Ding!
Another message immediately followed. It was a notice from the bank that snazzynovel.com had received a fund transfer of 500,000 dollars. Nicole scrolled up to look at snazzynovel.com message history with snazzynovel.com husband.
[Remember to go to the hospital.]
[Fund Transfer: $500,000]

[Fund Transfer: $500,000]
[Please come to the hospital right away.]

***
In their three years of marriage, the only time Nicole’s husband, Eric Ferguson, initiated contact with snazzynovel.com was to ask snazzynovel.com to go to the hospital to donate blood. To be exact, to sell blood. Nicole’s blood was sold to Wendy Quade. Eric also treated Nicole as a stranger throughout their marriage. This month alone, Nicole had already given blood three times, which was more than snazzynovel.com body could tolerate.
Nicole sat on the sofa as snazzynovel.com eyes unconsciously became sore and started to blur. Yesterday while snazzynovel.com was waiting for Eric to get off work, snazzynovel.com stood in the rain for more than an hour, so snazzynovel.com was feeling unwell and dizzy today and did not go into the office. Eric probably did not know that snazzynovel.com had a fever either.
She coughed and held snazzynovel.com phone, hesitating whether to reply. Suddenly, an unfamiliar number sent snazzynovel.com a message that crushed snazzynovel.com last ounce of perseverance and self-respect.
[Even if you are Mrs. Ferguson, you’re just a front and shamelessly occupy this position for three years. Has Eric ever looked at you once before? He slept over at my place last night. If I were you, I’d find a rope to hang myself. You’re just an interfering homewrecker!]
‘A homewrecker?’ Nicole suddenly felt suffocated, depressed, and shaken.
Nicole was Eric Ferguson’s legal wife. She gave up snazzynovel.com family and friends to marry this man for three years, yet snazzynovel.com was labeled a despicable homewrecker?
Once again, snazzynovel.com chest felt like it was crushed. All those accumulated feelings for Eric throughout snazzynovel.com humble days as his wife suddenly shattered into pieces.
Following that message, a photo was sent to snazzynovel.com phone. It was Eric’s calm sleeping face. His handsome sculpted features were like an intricate art piece that made snazzynovel.com so attracted to him, like a moth to a flame. This picture was an attestation to the message earlier. The woman nestled on Eric’s shoulder was none other than Wendy Quade. Although both of them have their eyes closed, the curled-up corners of Wendy’s lips showed snazzynovel.com wakefulness at that moment. They looked like a pair of intimate lovers.
Her phone suddenly rang. It was a call from the Ferguson Villa. When Nicole habitually picked it up, Eric’s mother, Quinn, curtly ordered snazzynovel.com around.
“Nicole, did you forget what day it is? The maids are off today, so hurry up and come over to cook for us!”
Nicole sneered and hung up the phone without saying anything. She had been walking on eggshells around Eric Ferguson, trying to maintain this fragile marriage. At the office, everyone underestimated her, but snazzynovel.com still did snazzynovel.com best to play the role of Eric’s secretary. At home, Eric’s mother and sister looked down on snazzynovel.com “unknown origins”.
They were mean and picked on snazzynovel.com every chance they could. They ordered snazzynovel.com around, asking snazzynovel.com to cook, do the laundry, and even clean the house.
Nicole, who was supposed to be the Young Madam of the Ferguson family, was treated like a lowly servant. She stayed meek and obedient. She also never complained about any of this to Eric for fear of troubling snazzynovel.com and putting snazzynovel.com in a difficult position. She had endured so much that snazzynovel.com was desensitized to it.
Regardless of how much others despised her, Nicole was still willing to persist and endure all of it for the sake of Eric Ferguson. However, for the past three years, Eric never seemed to remember that snazzynovel.com was his wife. The extent of their communication was when snazzynovel.com gave snazzynovel.com work to do at the office, urged snazzynovel.com to donate blood, and transferred money to her.
At this moment, Nicole felt exhausted. She could not hold on any longer. This was not the first time Wendy Quade tried to provoke her. In the past, Nicole could always laugh off those harsh and mean words, but this photo completely trampled over snazzynovel.com self-esteem.
Humiliation, loneliness, and a harsh cold engulfed her.
‘Was my three years of marriage a joke?’ At this moment, Nicole’s face was extremely glum.
She had finally made up snazzynovel.com mind. ‘Fine. It’s time for this joke to be over!’
Nicole scrolled through snazzynovel.com phone, and without hesitation, snazzynovel.com sent Eric a message.
[Let’s get a divorce.]
Although snazzynovel.com was still feeling dizzy, snazzynovel.com knew that this was the right decision.
Eric called snazzynovel.com immediately. Nicole had already expected his wrath at this moment. The man’s voice was harsh and cold as snazzynovel.com said, “Nicole, what are you making a fuss about? How much do you want? Just state a price. The doctor said that Wendy’s in critical condition…”
Nicole forcefully suppressed the dizziness and interrupted his words. She smiled coldly and said in a hoarse voice, “Eric, I’ll see you at the City Hall in an hour, or you can watch snazzynovel.com die.”
She hung up after that sentence. Immediately after, snazzynovel.com received another message.
[Fund transfer: $1,000,000]
“Hahahaha…” Nicole laughed out loud as snazzynovel.com tears gushed out uncontrollably.
‘This is absurd! It’s just too ridiculous…’
