Ex-Husband Who Has Gone Mad After Abusing His Wife
Chapter 22

Chapter 22

I frowned. “Why are you snooping on me, Ms. Olsen?”

Rina smiled. “I have to acknowledge my rival. You’re not the prettiest woman I

know, but you’re very attractive to most men.”

“How much is he paying you per day?” I asked.

Rina blinked. She did not seem to understand.

Well, whatever. I took my purse and said, “Thank you for buying this dress for

1. How much is it?”

“Liam paid for it,” Rina grinned again. “Of course, I helped him choose a color. I

think this shade of green fits you very well!”

“Is he still outside?” I asked.

“I’m not telling you.” Rina tilted her head in an adorable manner. “Your

complexion is terrible. Are you angry at something?”

It seemed that he was not outside.

I took my handbag and prepared to leave the lounge. While I passed by Rina,

her smile suddenly vanished, and she said, “I’m the chairperson of Kaiser

Group.”

I stopped walking and looked at her.

“Did you get that, I’m a chairperson,” Rina smirked coldly. “I’m not a social

escort that can be bought for fifty thousand dollars a day, or a socialite who

had fallen from grace.”

“By Kaiser Group, you mean the toy conglomerate?”

That was a multinational corporation. It was as powerful as the Nyra at its

peak.

“Yes.” Rina lifted her chin. “I’m sure you’ve heard of me, right? Everyone with

the slightest business sense will know I’m not lying.”

I smiled and said, “Nice to meet you, Ms. Olsen.”

Rina smiled and extended a hand toward me.

glanced at her glittering fingers. Even though I knew she was being sarcastic

toward me, I did not want to be seen as rude, so I reached out, and we

exchanged a handshake.

“That’s more like it.” Rina smiled sweetly. “Why were you so hostile? I genuinely

want to be your friend, Vivi dear.”

She pumped my hand twice. “After all, I’m very curious about the princess of

the Nyra family who, in Liam’s words, is as stupid as a blow-up doll.”

While I stared her in the eye, I pulled my hand away.

Rina raised her eyebrows. Before she could react, I lifted my hand and

slapped her.

Rina did not expect that I would suddenly get physical. She reflexively

covered her face and stared at me in shock. “How dare you…”

“Over here, barking dogs get punished,” I said. “Even if they’re the chairperson

of Kaiser Group.”

As expected, Liam was not in the office. While I made my way downstairs, I

thought to myself, Rina is unlucky. If she had taunted me two days ago, I

wouldn’t have had the courage to get physical.

I did not like conflicts or confrontations. More importantly, I was afraid that

Liam might get mad at me if I treated her rudely.

I received a bank transfer notification when I arrived at the lobby. At the

same time, my phone began to ring. It was Anna.

“It’s settled, my dear sister!” she said.

“What did he say?” I asked.

“He called me personally and said angrily, ‘Anna, stop exploiting my wife:’

After that, he signed the contract without any protest,” Anna said smugly.

“Looks like you didn’t have to worry after all. He still loves you.”

I was thoroughly confused. “You weren’t exploiting me!”

It was my right to give my shares to whomever I wanted. Liam did not make

any sense.

“How would I know?” Anna said with a smile. “I gave you some money. You

should go and get yourself a makeover. Why not take the opportunity to

rekindle the flame and bear a child for him?”

I went to the mall in the afternoon and bought new clothes with the money

Anna gave me. Of course, I tossed the disgusting green dress into the trash.

Not only that, I went to get a perm and a manicure.

I did not do that to satisfy Liam. Instead, I wanted to pamper myself because

Anna mentioned it.

At the cosmetics counter, the sales clerk helped me put on makeup and

made me look like a brand-new person. She also told me there was a photo

studio on the fifth floor.

The fifth floor was empty except for a young woman slurping a slushie. She

asked me lazily, “Can I help you?”

“I want a portrait for my funeral,” I said.

I went to the subway station after getting my photo taken. It was already

dark when I reached home.

As expected, Liam was not in. He must be at Rina’s house, but I stopped my

mind from wandering any further.

I stashed my photos in a safe place, ate my medicine and melatonin pills,

and lay on my bed in my room.

I did not sleep for very long before I felt someone pushing me. “Mrs. Mendez.”

I opened my eyes and saw Auntie Sidney in front of me. “Mrs. Mendez, Mr.

Mendez wants you to go downstairs for dinner,” she said.

Dinner? He must be crazy.

I ignored her, closed my eyes, and continued sleeping.

A few minutes later, I felt something in my mouth.

The lack of breath forced me to open my eyes. I saw Liam’s face in front of

I instantly clenched my jaw. While he recoiled, I shoved him away and sat up.

Liam wiped a trace of blood from his lips and glanced at me. “Come and

have dinner.”

He turned around and headed toward the door. I was about to lie down again

when he suddenly stopped and turned his head around.

I dared not move a muscle. Even though I was dressed in my pajamas, I

subconsciously tightened my grip on the blanket.

Liam stared at me for a few seconds before turning around and walking back

at me.

“Get up.”

“Wait for me outside. I want to get changed,” I said.

I planned to lock the door after he went out.

“It’s either you come with me,” he said while closing the door and locking it,

“Or I’ll make you come with me.”

As I watched him come closer, I yelled, “Don’t come any nearer!”

Liam stopped walking and leaned on the chest of drawers.

I averted his gaze, got off the bed, and went into the closet.

Chapter 22 Stop Exploiting My Wife

Through the mirror, I could see that Liam was looking at me.

I grabbed the clothes I bought earlier in the afternoon and went to a corner

to change.

I used to treat him as my husband, and I was eager for him to savor every

inch of my naked body.

But now…

I would rather he look away.

After I came out of the closet, the melatonin pills made me yawn

uncontrollably.

Liam stared at me for some time before saying, “Wear the clothes I gave

you.”

The green dress was the only piece of clothing he bought for me.

“I threw it away.”

He frowned slightly.

Even though the tag was removed, I could tell from the material and the

design that it must have cost a bomb.

He was a miser. It must have pained him to hear that.

I said, “How much was it? I’ll pay you back.”

He did not say anything, so I continued, “I can go shopping with you if you’d

like. Maybe I can buy something for your mistress.”

Liam remained silent. He shot a glance at me and left the room.
