A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

“Please, Leo, I’m begging you.

Please head home with me,” Amelie Dillion pleaded pathetically, ignoring the scornful gazes surrounding her booth. When her husband, Leo Alston, heard her words, he stood up stiffly and walked out with a grim expression.

However, he did not oblige to her request and took her to another booth.

Then, he took a bank card out of his wallet, threw it on the table in front of her, and said coldly, “I’m not interested in going home with you to celebrate that so-called wedding anniversary.

Here, take this and go shopping on your own!” After finishing his words, he didn’t stay any longer and left the booth.

“Leo!” She grabbed the hem of his shirt in panic.

“Would you believe me if I told you that I didn’t break the promise because of myself?” Hearing her words, he retorted with a sneer, “Would you believe your own words? Are you sure you broke the promise because of me?” It is because of you! If only you remembered what really happened, you would then understand everything.

Sadly, you have forgotten about the past.

Hence, no matter how much I explain it to you, you would only find it ridiculous, thought Amelie as her shoulders dropped in defeat. Ring! At that moment, her phone’s alarm rang, signaling that it was 12.00AM, concluding the day of their wedding anniversary.

It also meant that the time she had set for herself to let everything go was up.

Even so, she still wanted to make the last run for it.

“Leo—” Before she could get her words out, Amelie’s phone cut her off again with a notification.

Then, she looked at her phone and saw a photo of a man and a woman sleeping together.

The man in the photo was Leo, her husband. Huh, Leo cheated on me.

Well, I don’t want a man who cheated! Amelie thought.

In that split second, she finally made up her mind.

“Let’s get a divorce.” As she spoke, she silently let go of the hem of his shirt.

Hearing her words, Leo turned around and looked at her in surprise.

After all, he didn’t believe that she would say such words to him when she had just been begging him to spend their anniversary together. However, he then realized that she was a smart and calculative person.

There was no way she would give up on being Mrs. Alston.
