Chapter 10 The End
Heh.
I smiled sarcastically,
You never lost your memory at all, so why pretend you remembered?
Wyatt’s face changed dramatically,
How did you know? Did Damian tell you?
I didn’t explain,
just looked at him mockingly,
Since you’re tired of living with me, go find your new wife, Laurel.
As for remarriage, forget it–I’m tired of you too.
I turned around,
All these years, to take care of you, I neglected myself.
Look, since leaving you, I look ten years younger!
You, you’re a cesspool.
Anyone who gets close ends up stinking.
Wyatt’s expression turned extremely ugly from my words,
The prepared act of playing pitiful,
The talk of decades of marital affection could no longer be used.

Without my care,
he became a recking beggar.
Clearly unable to bear this life,
he tracked me down after asking around.
He thought I’d soften like before, pleading desperately:
“Nicole, take me with you.”
“My son and his wife would rather starve me to death to get my life savings!”
“That Ezra is no saint either!”
“Shoving lard down my throat daily, trying to give me a heart attack.”
He wept, stench radiating as passersby swerved away.
“I’m confined to bed even for bathroom needs. When you cared for me, I never suffered like this.”
“Nicole, I was such a fool.”
“No one compares to a first wife.”
“You’ve suffered so much, please forgive me.”
Growing more agitated, eyes bloodshot, he vowed fiercely:
“I’ll divorce Ezra right now! Come back! Without you, I have no home.”
Had I not overheard him pretending to have amnesia,

these words might’ve brought me to tears.
But now,
they only turn my stomach.
[“Stop overthinking. I never want anything to do with you again.“]
I rejected his plea.
Wyatt tried to press further, but I called security
and had him escorted out.
Tobias stood silently in the distance,
speaking only when I approached:
[“Nicole, I worried his family might give you trouble. Glad you’re okay.“]
Truth was,
I’d long recognized his feelings,
but after catering to others my whole life without ever living for myself,
I’m now relishing this new chapter.
Family and marriage aren’t necessities.
Let things take their course.
I’ve long since accepted it,
Even if I grow old alone, I won’t be afraid.
My career is my new focus.

It gives me ample money,
a positive outlook,
and a warm, bright home.
But Wyatt’s life
isn’t going so well.
Under the torment of Damian, Laurel, and Ezra,
Wyatt is bedridden all day.
The filth makes Laurel sick.

The family finally turned against each other and started fighting over the
property.
Ezra joined in too.
Turns out, she had another son.
He’s a tough guy, all brawn.
On the day of the fight, he beat Damian until he bled.
Laurel called the police,
Both sides ended up at the police station.
But no one cared for Wyatt,
He hadn’t eaten for two days.
Everyone thought Wyatt’s pooping was disgusting and deliberately starved him.

He couldn’t take it anymore and tried to get food from the fridge himself.
Just as he climbed off the bed,
he tripped over Cody’s pee,
suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, and became an invalid unable to speak.
When Ezra saw he was disabled,
taking advantage of Damian and Laurel not being home,
she ran off with the little money left in the house and disappeared.
Damian and Laurel suffered terribly taking care of him.
Finally, Laurel couldn’t take it anymore and pretended to leave the gas on when going out,
poisoning Wyatt to death.
The police investigation quickly pointed to Laurel.
At this moment,
what little filial piety Damian had left surfaced,
he demanded compensation from Laurel’s parents,
but they refused outright, retorting, “If you want my daughter in prison, go ahead and sue! But your son will never pass a background check again!”
Enraged,
he actually beat Laurel half to death.

Laurel is permanently paralyzed from the waist down.
Damian intentionally hurt someone and was thrown in jail.
Cody was also taken back by Laurel’s family.
This family is absolutely fantastic!
And after leaving Wyatt,
my life
has only become more colorful and brilliant!
