I checked my marital status at the civil affairs
bureau. I was single. Mom was also listed as
single.
I found out Mark and Grace had fake
I found out Mark and Grace had fake
marriage certificates, even John didn’t know.
I was briefly stunned, then relieved.
It saved me trouble, and Mom could rest in
peace.
I was startled by a figure.
It was Mark.
He was no longer charismatic, his clothes tattered.
He wore rough work gloves.
After John discovered Grace and Mark’s
actions, he fired Mark and took back Grace’s
house.
He was working construction.
I stepped back, wary.
“What do you want?”
His eyes were deranged.
“What? You and John ruined me, I won’t let
you live happily.”
“As long as we’re not divorced, you’re still my

WITE.
I laughed, showing him the investigation
results.
“Look, Mark, the marriage certificate was
fake, who are you fooling?”
Mark knew I knew about the fake marriage.
He sneered and left.
Some time later, John’s bodyguard contacted
- me. John was in a critical car accident and
wanted to see me.
I considered it and went.
John lay pale in bed.
Seeing me, he wept, weakly saying,
“Wendy, I did wrong, sorry to your mother and
you.”
“But I truly loved your mother.”
“I’ll leave all my assets to you, hoping you
bury me and your mother together.”
His secretary handed me documents.
I looked at John without speaking.
I watched him die.
He craved my answer until the end.
I didn’t give it.
He didn’t deserve to be buried with Mom.
I closed his eyes.
I saw John taking me to an amusement park.
We were so happy, but now everything is different.
I buried John far from Mom.
I didn’t want him to disturb her peace.
I used 10% of his assets for a charity.
The rest went to my uncle.
Later, I found out John’s accident wasn’t an accident, but Grace and Mark’s revenge.
After John fired Mark, they held a grudge. They tampered with John’s brakes.
John’s car lost control, causing the accident.
I submitted the evidence, and Grace and Mark
were arrested.
They were sentenced to death.

I felt a sense of loss.
Everything was finally over.
I looked up at the sky. Each day was a new
beginning.
