News reporters surrounded me as I tried to leave the hospital after getting my arm bandaged. “Mrs. Gardner, how does it feel to have your husband’s mistress attack you?”
“Is it true that your brother became a test subject and received the first vaccine for leukemia?”
I looked at the cameras and smiled.
“I don’t know why the ‘mistress‘ came to me, but Samuel Gardner did visit me,” I said meaningfully. “Cole was a test subject for the leukemia vaccine.”
When the reporters heard this, they berated her with another string of questions.
“You’re already married to Mr. Gardner, so why did you take the risk and let your brother become a test subject?”
I continued smiling. “Because Samuel asked me for a divorce. It was the only thing I could do for Cole’s health.” The reporters burst into an uproar at that.
I did not know what they were going to write in their articles, nor did I care.
At night, I received call from the police station.
The police told me that they had arrested Mia and asked whether I wanted to write a pardon letter.
I refused. “I won’t write it.”
But to my surprise, Samuel came to me to ask for the pardon letter.

“Dawn, could you write a pardon letter for Mia?” He sounded exhausted. “When she was my secretary, she stole company secrets. If you don’t give her that pardon letter, she threatens to leak the secrets to my rival company.”

I did not care about his company. I just cared about what Samuel would offer me for that pardon letter.
Since he was a businessman, he knew what I meant.
“I brought the signed divorce agreement. If you agree to write a pardon letter, we can file the divorce tomorrow.”
“Sure.” I agreed to it.

Samuel also handed me half of his company’s shares. I was not expecting that.
I looked at him in surprise, but he just gave me a nonchalant smile.
“It’s what you deserve.”
If that was the case, I was not going to feel torn about it anymore. I signed the shares transfer agreement.
After writing the pardon letter, I handed it to Samuel.
He sighed in relief.
“I’ll see you at 9 am at the courthouse tomorrow. Keep your word this time.”
Samuel stood at the entrance with a defeated look on his face.
In the end, he nodded.
