Chapter 1 Divorce

“Byron Lawrence, I’ve been married to you for 3 years. We’ve been husband and wife these 3 yearsonly on paper. I’ll allow you to be with your dream woman, I give up on this marriage! You can go chaseher after tonight! For now, just take it as compensation for my feelings toward you all these years,alright…”

After saying this, Rosalie leaned in and kissed the man in front of her. Her kiss carried a passionatemadness akin to a moth to a flame and… despair.

She knew that her methods were despicable.She had been in love for too long, however, it was toohard!She was begging for just this consolation for now.

“Rosalie Jacobs, how dare you!!!”

Byron gritted his teeth. His delicate face that was handsome till the point of enchantment was filled withanger.He wanted to push this audacious woman away but was powerless.

“There is nothing that I don’t dare do…”

There was a tear in the corner of Rosalie’s eyes and her kiss became increasingly urgent.She justwanted to have all of him just once!

Byron was beside himself with anger.

However, the current situation was already out of his control.

The next day, Rosalie awoke just as the sky began to brighten.

Enduring the discomfort, she took out the divorce agreement that had been prepared a long time agofrom the drawer and put it on the bedside table. Finally, she took a deep look at the man on the bed.

“Byron, I’ll set you free. We’ll have nothing to do with each other from now on!”

Murmuring these words, Rosalie then retracted her gaze and turned away.Her heart was filled withbitterness and sadness as she left the Lawrence household.She had loved Byron for seven years!

The period from her teenage years to college was constantly pictured in her mind.Her greatest wishwas to be able to marry him!

However, Byron hated her…

The old master of the Lawrence family had been seriously ill at the time, and they needed to dosomething to cheer him up. Given her birth chart was compatible with his, she was selected.

Her father and stepmother, who regarded money as their life packed her up and sent her away withoutsaying a word.

She had been on cloud nine then as she looked forward to the night of the wedding.

When Byron appeared, however, he had said with disgust on his face, “You need to know that theperson I want to marry is Wendy Fuller, not you! She is qualified to be my wife while you are not!”

Rosalie knew that Byron had no obligation to like much less love her.

Yet, she was still naive with the hope that she could warm the man’s heart one day.She had workedhard to be a good wife in their three years of marriage.She would personally cook just for him everynight so that he would have a hot meal when he came back from work.

No matter how late it was, she would only be at ease when he came home each day.

When he got drunk networking, she would take good care of him and would delegate the responsibilityto someone else.

If he were ill or slightly injured, she would worry more than anyone else.

Every winter, she would turn on the heating and prepare hot water for him ahead of time. She wouldget up early in the morning and help warm his clothes in hopes that he would get cold…

However, his lack of love remained unchanged.

She finally understood the day before yesterday, when Byron had accompanied Wendy Fuller at thehospital despite it being her birthday. Her dream was nothing more than wishful thinking!She would notbe able to warm the man’s heart even if she spent her entire life trying.

He belonged to another woman!

Rosalie had given up completely!

When Byron woke up, it was already ten o’clock in the morning.

His first thought was to strangle Rosalie!

He was the president of the Lawrence Corporation; he had always been known for his shrewdness andwas invincible in the business world. No one had ever plotted against him or had him suffer losses.

He never thought he would fall into that woman’s hands the first time!

Infuriated, he glanced around the room. Instead of seeing the woman, he noticed the documents on thebedside table.

“What is this?”

Byron frowned deeply and grabbed it over for a look.

The words “divorce agreement” jumped into his vision instantly.

His pupils contracted and his expression suddenly turned gloomy.

This woman really had a never-ending line of tricks up her sleeve!

Byron did not believe for one second that Rosalie would divorce him.

Expression dark, he went downstairs, an evil miasma surrounding his body and he asked thehousekeeper, “Have you seen Rosalie?”

The housekeeper, Mr. Lee, was stunned and immediately replied, “Sir, the young lady left before dawnwith her luggage.”

Byron was completely stunned.

Six years later.

Y Nation, VR Medical Research Institute.

The moment Rosalie exited the research room, she heard her assistant Linda say, “Dr. Jacobs,Professor Luke is looking for you, he requested you head over to his office.”

Rosalie had pulled an all-nighter. She had been feeling a little drowsy but instantly woke up when sheheard this.

“Did he say anything what for? Could it be that…my two little rascals have once again destroyed theresearch and development output?”

“Obviously.”

Linda replied with a little sympathy in her eyes.

Her superior had always been highly efficient and competent and had reached the ceiling of themedical profession at a young age. She was Quentin Luke’s proud disciple, was well-known within themedical profession and had never been reprimanded for her work.

Yet every time, she had to take the fall for her two cute, troublemaking kids!

Linda subconsciously comforted her, “You hadn’t come out of the research room for three days straightthis time and they have been worried about your health day in and day out. That’s why they werefloundering about in Professor Luke’s office every day… I noticed that a few more white hairs haveappeared on Professor Luke’s head.”

Rosalie had a headache when she heard this, she also found it a little funny.

She had gone abroad after leaving the Lawrence family six years ago!She had planned to further herstudies but unexpectedly, had gotten pregnant.

She had struggled with whether to get an abortion at the time but when she arrived at the hospital, sheretreated and was reluctant to undergo the procedure.She chose to keep the children in the end.

They were triplets, two sons, and a daughter.

The daughter had died due to the lack of oxygen during childbirth, leaving only two precious sons, whowere nicknamed dawn and dusk.

Rosalie was happy when she thought about the two highly intelligent kids.

However, thinking about how she would be scolded because of them, she instantly withered.novelbin
