My friends had seen how kind he was to me,
telling me how much he loved me.
My parents disliked him, but it was because
of his family background and his difficult
mother.
They didn’t have many issues with him
personally.
Otherwise, why would they have spent so
much money on our wedding?
Initially, I wondered if Gregory was like many
men, only after my money, even plotting with
Linda Claire to trap me.

But after calming down and reflecting, I
realized Gregory was complicated.
He was both selfish and generous.
Selfish in prioritizing his own interests.
Yet he kept his promises, generously fulfilling
them, being nice to everyone.
But human nature is complex. Even after
decades with him, I still didn’t understand
him.
Seeing my lack of reaction, Anya nudged me.
“Hey, did you hear what I just said?”
I looked up, “Huh? What?”
“Linda Claire’s show. It was a disaster. She
wasted all the money.”
I pursed my lips and checked online.
It was indeed a disaster.
Perhaps without Nathan, she couldn’t even
get any well–known models.
The setting was chaotic, the layout poor.
Many questioned if her title as a genius

designer was bought.
A month later, my fashion show took place.
Though I sent invitations to Gregory and
Linda Claire, neither came.
Too bad, they missed a spectacular moment
of my success.
After the show, my name was back in the
industry.
Linda Claire’s, on the other hand, faded from
public view.

Soon, the cooling–off period ended.
I set a date and sent it to Gregory.
Gregory had been quiet.
Probably because of the public revelation at
the courthouse, damaging his reputation and
confronting him with reality.
When we finalized the divorce, Gregory was
quiet, no longer trying to hold onto me.
After getting the divorce papers, I happily

posted a picture on social media.
Gregory just glanced at me, wished me
happiness, and left.
