The Cruel One As I tensed up, I looked at the door.


    Matthew appeared, and he widened his eyes.


    Seeing him unexpectedly made me nervous.


    I tightened my grip on the two big suitcases I was dragging.


    They mainly contained clothes and other things that were memorable to me.


    “Honey, you’re back!” Smiling warmly, he strode over.


    “Honey…” I took a step back.


    He was a stranger to me now, and I couldn’t stand him being near me.


    When he did, I felt a mix of disgust, fear, and hatred.


    He frowned slightly but then smiled as he saw my suitcases.


    “Honey, where are you going?” I “I’m here to take my stuff,” I said ndly, then pulled the suitcases


    toward the door.


    He grabbed my arm.


    “No, honey, you can’t go Disgusted, I yanked my arm from his grip.


    “Never call me that again!” “Honey, why are you so pig–headed?” Matthew looked helpless.


    “Must you be so cruel?” “Yes I’m a pig–headed woman! If I weren’t, I wouldn’t have ended up like this


    and almost got Ava killed!” Seeing him made me lose my cool again.


    “And you’re the one who’s being cruel!” “What else do you want? My dad has gone to jail, hasn’t he?


    Why can’t you forgive us? Matthew stiffened face, trying hard to suppress his anger.


    “You have everything now.

    “Or do you have someone new? Now that you’ve taken everything from me, you can’t wait to dump me,


    huh? No wonder Mel says you’re a scheming woman!” Mel again! He talked as if that bitch was his


    wife, and I was an outsider.


    “You fucking asshole!” I marched toward the door, dragging the suitcases along.


    He pulled me back.


    “Do you think I’m unaware of what’s happening between you and As Pierce? What were you trying to


    aplish when you transferred your funds and changed the locks and passwords? “They’re not


    yours alone, okay? Are you nning to keep the house, the car, and the money for yourself? Who gave


    you the idea?” I retorted, “You brought this upon yourself.


    They’re rightfully mine.


    If you hadn’t done what you did, things wouldn’t have ended up like this.


    You should think about what you’ve done, Matthew!” Refusing to let go, Matthew gave me a sad and


    pleading look.


    “Chloe, you were never like this before.

    Seeing his helpless face, I could tell his patience was wearing thin.


    I smiled and said, “A home with a father having affairs with his sister, a grandfather who doesn’t care if


    she lives or dies, and a grandmother who doesn’t give a damn about anything? “Not to mention that her

    The saddest part of marriage was when your partner understood nothing of your sacrifices.


    Matthew rushed to hug me as I left.


    At this moment, the door burst open, and Mnie showed up at the doorway like an apparition.
