I turned to look at the others in the company.

They had unpleasant expressions, but no one spoke up.

Just then, Linda walked over.

I stared at her with a blank expression and asked, "Linda, what's going on here?"

Linda replied casually, "I'm doing this for your own good."

"You made a big mistake, so it's best for you to stay at home and reflect.

"Melvin will take over your position."

Her relaxed tone left me in disbelief. "He's just an intern! What makes him qualified to take my place?"

Linda crossed her arms and sneered, "Lewis, don't underestimate others, and don't forget that your success today is largely because you're my husband."

It suddenly struck me that Linda was trying to force me to comply.

She wanted me to realize that without her, I was nothing.

Linda looked me up and down and said, "Just admit your mistake, and everything can still be yours."

"You're really concerned about your status, aren't you? I know it, or else you wouldn't have worked so hard," she added.

I stared at Linda in bewilderment.

So, that was her belief.

She thought I was after power.

When Linda's mother brought me into Chancers Corporation, it was mainly to support Linda.

After our marriage, Linda was all about living a luxurious life – buying designer bags and getting cosmetic treatments – completely neglecting the company's business.

I had no choice but to carry the weight of Chancers on my shoulders.

When the company's finances were in trouble, I found myself standing at clients' doorsteps, pleading and negotiating with them.

I spent day and night networking and soliciting investments.

Those were challenging times, and only I knew how difficult they were.

Unable to hold back tears, I took a step back and told her, "Linda, marrying you was a huge mistake."

Her face changed slightly, then turned angry. "Marrying me was a blessing you earned from your past life. Without me, you wouldn't have had the chance to enjoy all this."

Melvin leaned against Linda and smirked, "Lewis Leedon, who do you think you are?"

He looked at me with disdain. "You're only enjoying everything you have because of Ms. Chancers."

I stood there, staring at the man before me, dumbfounded.

After a while, I chuckled and said, "Linda, don't forget to sign the divorce agreement."
