I got my husband's over 200 porrn videos with another woman.

They did it in the elevators, stairwells, terraces, kitchens, even on the bus...

"Mr. Payne, when will you divorce Scarlett Blanchett?" the woman in one video asked.

"Shut up! Scarlett's my beloved. I'll give you everything, but I won't marry you!" Clayton snapped.

He said I was his beloved while having sex with another woman. How ironic!

"This mission is top secret. Once you're in, you're totally cut off from the outside. Is your husband cool with that?" The staff member's words interrupted my thoughts.

"My marriage will end soon. In ten days, I'll leave on time."

"This mission is top secret. Once you're in, you're totally cut off from the outside. Is your husband cool with that?"

The staff member seemed hesitant.

"Yes."

Scarlett's voice was firm as she took the documents from the staff member.

Under the staff member's uncertain gaze, she confirmed it again.

"My marriage will end soon. In ten days, I'll leave on time."

She just wanted her trace as a secret so that Clayton would never find her.

Other staff members passing by seemed shocked like they heard something unbelievable.

"What? Mrs. Payne is actually getting a divorce? Everyone in San Francisco knows Mr. Payne loves her deeply. Will he agree?"

"Yeah, their grand wedding was famous nationwide. When Mrs. Payne had a car accident, Mr. Payne went to church daily to pray for her. After her recovery, he donated a billion dollars to charity."

"They're getting a divorce?! No way!"

Scarlett heard such words too many times.

Everyone thought Clayton loved her so much.

If Scarlett hadn't seen those videos, she'd never doubt Clayton's love.

His love just faded out of nowhere.

Half a year ago, Scarlett received an anonymous email.

Everyone thought Clayton was madly in love with Scarlett, but he had an affair with his secretary, Mia Smith.

Clayton and Mia made over two hundred sex videos.

In the videos, they had sex in elevators, stairwells, terraces, kitchens, even on the bus... They kept exploring various places.

Scarlett couldn't believe the clean freak Clayton actually did so many crazy things with Mia.

But the truth was right in front of her.

With a degree in computer science, Scarlett could easily tell whether the videos were real or fake.

Yet she kept deceiving herself, choosing to trust Clayton over and over again.

Until she found a scratch on Clayton's back for the first time.

Scarlett was stunned and sent the videos for examination with suspicion.

The report clearly stated something that deeply hurt her.

"After examination, the videos and audios had no signs of editing, confirmed to be real."

At that moment, Scarlett's heart tightened, and her chest felt a tearing pain.

Scarlett fainted right away.

When Scarlett woke up, the doctor told her she had cardiogenic heart disease. She couldn't have strong emotions and needed to rest well.

After hearing this, Scarlett cried and laughed.

In the tenth year of loving Clayton, what she got was a broken heart.

Her phone beeped.

That anonymous person sent a video again. This time it was a live stream.

In the video, Clayton swept away a stack of papers on the table. His fingers were holding Mia's waist, his eyes full of desire, his voice hoarse.

"As long as you're obedient, I can give you everything you want, except for marrying you."

Scarlett put on headphones, standing in the middle of the hallway, feeling numb and hopeless.

There were staff members passing by.

No one knew what she was watching. People always said Mrs. Payne was happy, but now they sensed an indescribable sadness in her.

Scarlett's heart started to ache. The pain spread to her limbs. She clenched her teeth to endure the pain.

In the live stream, Mia was wrapped around Clayton's waist, lowering her head and whispering something to him.

Clayton's breathing was heavy. He gritted his teeth and said, "You're so hot, baby."

Then Clayton touched her downwards, and Mia's body trembled uncontrollably.

The gift box on the table fell to the ground with a thud. There was an emerald necklace inside it.

"Mr. Payne... It's Mrs. Payne's necklace."

A muffled male voice came from the video, "Don't worry about the necklace... I only want you now."

Scarlett listened to the whole process, her heart shattered, sinking completely.

The staff looked at the upset Scarlett, and asked with worry, "Mrs. Payne, are you OK? Do you need help?"

Scarlett held her chest, trembling as she took off the ring. "Yes, this ring is dirty. Please help me get rid of it."

The ring was designed by Clayton.

Clayton used the last of his money to buy the biggest gemstone, carving it into a ring himself. But everything changed. He can get through the tough times with her, but he can't love her forever.

Scarlett left quickly. The staff watched her hurried figure, thinking, "Mrs. Payne is in such a hurry. Where is she going?"

After handing over the documents to the lawyer, Scarlett dragged her exhausted body back home.

As soon as she opened the door, the smell of food hit her.

Clayton, dressed in a suit and wearing an apron, ran over with a smile to hug her.

"Honey, why are you back so late? I miss you."

The man was tall, hugging her like a mountain pressing down.

Clayton's breath was hot on her neck.

He sprayed strong-smelling cologne, but Scarlett still caught a hint of a sweet woman's scent.

She looked down and found he was wearing a new watch.

It wasn't the luxury brand he usually wore, just an ordinary watch.

Clayton was always particular about quality and taste. Even a cufflink he had was worth a million dollars. He would never choose such a cheap watch.

He once said that watches were meant to keep a man's heart.

He would only wear watches given by his wife.

Now, not only was he wearing this new watch, but he also took off the watch Scarlett gave him.

Scarlett stared at the watch.

"Changing your watch?"

Clayton's body stiffened, then quickly recovered.

He pulled Scarlett down onto the couch. He crouched down in front of her. His beautiful eyes focused on her.

"The secretary mistook the watch. If you don't like it, I'll throw it away now."

After saying that, Clayton took off the watch and threw it into the trash can.

"If it makes you unhappy, I'm sorry. Do you feel better now?"

His eyes were full of tenderness.

The afterglow of the sunset shone on his handsome face, giving Scarlett a warm and peaceful illusion.

Scarlett's expression was a bit dazed.

She didn't understand how a person's appearance and heart could be so different.

Clayton suddenly took out a beautiful gift box, his voice clean and gentle.

"Honey, happy seventh anniversary. Some people say no love can last seven years, but I love you more every day when I wake up.

"Honey, we will always be together, forever in love."

The man knelt on one knee, his gaze gentle and firm.

If she hadn't seen the small scratches on his wrist, these words might be more believable.

Scarlett's heart ached and numbed.

How could Clayton manage to cheat on the secretary while still being able to say such sweet words to her?

Was he reminiscing about the details with Mia when he took out the necklace?

Such a liar.

Scarlett bit her lip, barely resisting the urge to throw the necklace in Clayton's face.

She felt the coldness on her neck.

Clayton's eyes were full of admiration. "Baby, you deserve the best."

After saying this, he was about to kiss Scarlett, but she turned her head away.

This subconscious action made Clayton pause.

Perhaps to avoid embarrassment, Clayton made an excuse. "Isn't my smell too smoky, honey? Wait, I'll go wash up."

Scarlett suppressed the sadness in her heart and gently pushed him.

"I've also prepared a great gift for your birthday. I'll give it to you on that day."

The man's face softened as he hugged her tightly. "Honey, you're so good to me. Meeting you in this life is my greatest fortune. Without you, my life will be worse than death."

Worse than death?

Scarlett showed a bitter smile.

The sound of water started in the bathroom, and Scarlett put the documents in the drawer.

A message popped up on the tablet on the bed. The words were explicit.

"Kitten, you're so fierce! My hands are almost scratched by you."

Scarlett's eyes instantly turned red, and her heart was like being stabbed by a knife.

It only had ten days left. Clayton, hope your life would really be worse than death at that time.

In the early morning, Scarlett was awakened by a kiss.

The man's movements were restrained and gentle.

But Scarlett pushed him away and started to retch.

Clayton was startled. He didn't wear his shoes, holding her and ready to rush to the hospital. "Honey, don't scare me. I'll take you to the hospital right away."

Scarlett shook her head. "Just my stomach feels a bit uncomfortable."

Clayton looked very nervous. "Sorry, I didn't notice it at all."

After speaking, his eyes turned red, and he picked up his phone to call his assistant. He wanted to postpone today's listing ceremony.

Scarlett stopped him, but she accidentally saw a message on his phone.

"Mr. Payne, to celebrate the listing, I wore your favorite underwear inside."

Disgusting.

Clayton could kiss her while looking at another woman's intimate photos.

Scarlett felt nauseous once she thought about their dirty affair.

She retched again, and this time Clayton insisted on taking her to the hospital for a check-up.

Throughout the process, he was considerate and took good care of her.

But Scarlett knew his mind was already elsewhere.

On the way, Clayton kept checking his phone.

Scarlett slightly lowered her head and saw that he transferred 20 thousand dollars.

It was followed by a sweet message.

"Baby, when we take photos later, you stand by my side and secretly hold my hand, OK? It's like a ceremony just for the two of us."

After Clayton sent this message, his lips curled into a light smile, his eyes full of tenderness.

Scarlett watched his smile, her heart bitter. Seeing her out, Clayton hurriedly put a shawl over her shoulders. "Be careful. It's cold."

No matter how cold it was, it couldn't be colder than her heart.

Scarlett's heart cooled, leaving only scars.

They rushed to the venue of the ceremony, and Scarlett didn't say a word. But as they got closer, her husband became more and more restless.

As soon as they got out of the car, Clayton couldn't wait.

Their hands separated, and he didn't notice.

They walked to the entrance, and Clayton suddenly remembered Scarlett, turning back with an apologetic smile. "Honey, I'm sorry. I'm just afraid I can't make it on time. Forgive me, OK?"

After speaking, he held her hand again.

Scarlett clenched her fists, the cold wind chilling her to the bone.

Her eyes turned red, barely holding back her tears.

The flash went off, and the surrounding reporters were discussing them.

"Mrs. Payne is really lucky. Even such a big event is not as important as her. Mr. Payne really loves her so much."

He loved her?

Scarlett never doubted Clayton's love before. But now, how much of his love remained with her?

Scarlett didn't say another word, letting Clayton hold her hand.

The crowd was bustling, but she saw Mia at first glance.

Mia wore a white sequined long dress, her figure graceful, like a proud swan, and also very much like Scarlett ten years ago.

Everyone was looking at Mia, saying how beautiful her necklace was.

The crowd dispersed. Mia held a glass and smiled at Scarlett.

"Mrs. Payne, what a coincidence! Our necklaces look exactly the same."

The gorgeous necklace reflected a cold light, stinging Scarlett's eyes red.

"Mrs. Payne, you probably don't know, all your necklaces were prepared by me. I chose the better ones first, and then the left ones were for you."

Scarlett's heart tightened, making it hard to breathe.

It turned out Clayton would prepare two gifts each time, one for her, and one for his mistress.

Scarlett was covered in cold sweat. She held back her tears with all her efforts, wanting to turn and leave.

But Mia suddenly grabbed her hand and begged her.

"Mrs. Payne, I was wrong. I won't wear this necklace anymore. Please don't fire me. I'm just a clerk. I didn't mean to wear the same necklace as you. It's all my fault. Please, for Mr. Payne's sake, spare me."

Scarlett didn't want to make a scene, but Mia was trying to frame her.

Scarlett looked at the face in front of her and suddenly laughed. Mia really looked like Scarlett.

"Since that, then just take it off."

Scarlett looked at Mia's long dress with an arrogant expression.

"And take off this dress too. I don't like it."

Mia's expression froze. The situation was unexpected.

Just as Mia was about to speak, she saw the people behind Scarlett, then Mia put on a pitiful expression.

"As long as Mrs. Payne is happy, even if I take all this off, it doesn't matter."

Mia hesitated for a long while, and she still didn't take off the necklace.

Seeing Mia wasn't sincere, Scarlett snorted coldly and directly pulled and broke the necklace.

Mia's neck hurt. She let out a cry.

"Ouch!"

Mia fell back to the ground exaggeratedly.

The crowd moved and dispersed.

Clayton rushed over. Seeing the weak Mia on the ground, his face darkened.

"Who did this?!"

The atmosphere suddenly froze.

Scarlett silently looked at Clayton.

She clenched the necklace tightly and let the sharp gemstone hurt her palm.

No one responded, and Clayton's voice was fierce.

"Who did this? I don't want to say it again."

Seeing her husband get angry for another woman, Scarlett felt like her heart was stabbed by a knife.

Seeing the situation, Mia walked towards Clayton and covered her neck with her hands in a painful expression. "Mr. Payne, it's my fault. I made Mrs. Payne unhappy..."

Clayton interrupted her coldly.

"How dare you upset my wife?"

Mia was startled and stood there, looking at Clayton in disbelief.

"Mr. Payne..."

Clayton's face turned cold, commanding, "Ms. Smith, apologize to her, or you can resign today."

Mia's face turned pale.

Clayton's protective behavior made everyone believe he truly loved his wife.

Only Scarlett knew the truth. Clayton was doing this for Mia.

Other people didn't know the truth and began to blame Mia.

"How dare she wear the same necklace as Mrs. Payne."

"Just a little secretary. She played so many tricks, quite cunning."

***

Everyone criticized Mia, even Clayton looked at her coldly.

Mia's eyes turned red. She looked so fragile.

She held her dress, cautiously bowing to Scarlett. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Payne. I didn't mean to upset you. Please forgive me."

Before Scarlett could respond, Clayton spoke first, "Leave here. Don't upset my wife again."

Clayton didn't look at Mia and just walked past her. He smiled and held Scarlett's hand, gently comforting her.

"Honey, as long as I'm here, I won't let you be upset."

His eyes were sincere, and his tone was firm.

It seemed Scarlett was the most precious person in his life.

But Scarlett saw everything.

She saw Clayton's worry for Mia.

She saw his right hand clenched to suppress his emotions.

She saw his fingers touching Mia's dress when he walked past Mia.

Scarlett understood Clayton so well, and she could always notice every detail of him.

Her heart was burning.

As Scarlett expected, the video of the ceremony went viral online.

Their sweet relationship became a trending topic.

Many people praised Clayton for being such a great husband.

But Scarlett remained indifferent.

The sound of water started again in the bathroom.

At the listing ceremony, Clayton left midway. No one knew where he went.

He rushed back home half an hour before, and went straight to the bathroom.

He put his suit pants in the laundry basket. There was a strange wet stain on it.

He just wore the pants today.

The tablet rang again.

Mia posted on Instagram, showing all kinds of luxury goods and so many bags on the floor.

In the pictures, a man's hand was visible.

"Since you tried so hard to please me, I'll forgive you this time. I'm such a good woman. Honey, you should love me forever."

Clayton replied below, "Love you forever, my princess."

Scarlett's heart was like being torn apart at that moment.

Scarlett found it hard to breathe, and then the bathroom door opened.

Clayton changed into pajamas, his wet hair still dripping.

At the moment they met the gaze, he was clearly taken aback.

"Honey, what are you looking at?"

Scarlett was about to speak, but her throat itched and she coughed.

Clayton rushed over anxiously, holding Scarlett. "Are you sick? Do you need medicine? Do you want water?"

She didn't answer, just showed him the screenshot on her phone.

Clayton showed an unnatural look for a moment, then quickly changed the topic.

"Want to go shopping? Next week, I'll take you to Paris. I'll buy anything you want."

He still chose to lie to her.

The taste of blood filled her mouth, and Scarlett felt suffocated.

It all turned into a bitter smile.

"It's getting late. Let's go to bed."

Scarlett lay in bed, thinking of something dazedly.

Would Clayton regret it when he saw the divorce agreement?

In the following days, Clayton began to frequently leave early and return late to make up for Mia.

He lied that he was busy working, but actually, he went shopping and had dinner with Mia, even flew to Paris with her at night, and rushed back early to wake Scarlett up in the morning.

Since he frequently cheated in this way, he was finally caught by Scarlett.

One morning, Clayton just came back, and he bumped into Scarlett coming downstairs for water.

"Honey?"

Scarlett stood in the shadows, silently observing him.

His tie was loose, and his shirt buttons were undone. There were many kiss marks and scratches on his neck.

Those red marks told her how passionate they were.

Scarlett lowered her head, not daring to look anymore.

She stared at the ground, her hands tightly gripping the cup.

Just wait for a few days. Everything would be over soon.

Clayton saw Scarlett's silence, and he felt a little anxious.

Usually, when he stayed up late for work, she would hug him and say some sweet words.

Why did she not say anything recently, and why didn't she hug him?

Clayton walked forward, asking anxiously, "Honey, what's wrong?"

Scarlett put down the cup and forced a smile. "I'm not feeling well lately, so I got up early for a check-up."

Clayton let out a sigh of relief, holding her hand gently. "I'll change my clothes and go with you."

Just as he was about to go upstairs to change, the phone rang.

He ignored it, but the phone rang again immediately.

After a few times, Clayton was annoyed. He answered it in a very impatient tone.

"Speaking. Don't waste my time."

From the phone, a woman's voice came intermittently.

Clayton immediately covered his phone with his hand and pretended to explain to Scarlett, "Those useless guys can't even handle the little issue well." After saying it, he walked to the side to answer the call.

Just after a while, Clayton rushed over. His voice was a bit anxious, "Honey, I have to go to the company to deal with some work issues. You go to the hospital first. I'll come later, OK?"

Scarlett observed the change in his attitude, feeling a bit stunned.

She didn't know when he started to care about Mia that much.

Seeing Scarlett staring at him, Clayton's heart was filled with the same unease as before.

He wanted to change the decision, but his phone beeped with a message, "Darling, don't let me wait too long, OK?"

"Honey, it's urgent. I have to go first." After speaking, Clayton grabbed his jacket and left.

Scarlett let out a bitter laugh. Was he really that eager?

She walked to the window and saw the two people hugging on the street.

Clayton pushed Mia away, his face a bit dark. "This is my home. Why do you come here? If my wife finds out, I won't forgive you."

Mia's eyes were filled with tears. "I won't destroy your marriage. I just don't know what to do."

Clayton frowned. "What's going on?"

Mia held Clayton's hand, gently placing it on her belly, cautiously saying, "I... I'm pregnant. If you don't want it, I'll get rid of it. I won't cause you trouble."

Hearing this, Scarlett was in great shock.

Her heart ached and numbed.

Clayton really loved Mia. Otherwise, how could he allow Mia to get pregnant?

It started raining, so Clayton helped Mia into the car.

Scarlett finally went to the hospital alone that day.

After a series of examinations, the doctor smiled and congratulated her.

"Congratulations, you're pregnant."

Scarlett held the test report, unable to react.

The doctor added, "But you have some heart issues. I suggest you discuss it with your family before deciding whether to keep it."

Scarlett clutched the test report, her chest feeling stuffy.

She was pregnant, just when she decided to leave.

She expected a child for five years, but it was ironic to get pregnant now.

Outside the window, the branches of trees swayed. Scarlett took out her phone and was about to call Clayton, but she hesitated.

At this moment, Mia's sweet voice came from the next room, "Mr. Payne, the doctor said our baby is very healthy!"

Scarlett looked up, seeing Clayton gently caressing Mia's belly, his smile tender. "Once he's born, I'll take him home. He's my first child, and he will be the future heir of the Payne Group."

Scarlett stood there. Her eyes were dry, and her feet were numb.

Clayton wanted to keep Mia's child, raise it himself, and let the child inherit his business.

Did she feel surprised? No.

Scarlett knew for a long time how much Clayton wanted a child.

But he only wanted a child with Scarlett before. And now, he forgot all about it.

Scarlett tore up the report and walked into the doctor's office. "Hello, I don't want this child."
