My Husband Said His Student Was More Important Than His Pregnant Wife Until I Asked for Divorce novel Chapter 71

Chapter 3

I sat alone in the living room until morning.

By the time light slipped through the windows, I had found the prenuptial agreement in the drawer, its crisp

edges now slightly worn from years of being buried and forgotten.

Julian’s signature scrawled across the bottom of the page.

I traced the fine print and found the expiration date, one month out.

Julian and Leo hadn’t come back. I buried myself in work and performed over a dozen surgeries one after

another.

I had no desire to go back to that cold, empty house anyway.

I rented an apartment and didn’t go back.

I called a divorce attorney and started the process.

If I’m honest with myself, I should have done this the moment my mother died.

I’d held on too long, to what I thought a family was supposed to be.

And I had held on too long to Julian.

Turns out, letting go wasn’t as hard as I’d thought.

A month later came the medical symposium.

The Grand Oak Symposium Hall was vast and quiet.

Then the main doors burst open.

Tiffany stormed in, her eyes red and swollen, shoving past the security guards without slowing down. She crossed the stage and grabbed the lapels of my blazer.

“Clara, if you have a problem, take it up with me! What the hell gave you the right to go after Julian’s child?” ”

Her voice blasted through the mic, filling every corner of the hall.

I stood there, frozen in shock as all the color drained from my face.

She kept hold of my collar and screamed.

“It’s bad enough you keep getting between us, but I’m that baby’s mother. How could you do something like

that?”

Após se livrar de um agressor, ela pede demissão. Agora ele a…

“Because of you, I almost lost my baby!”

She collapsed to her knees in front of me, sobbing.

“Please, just leave Julian alone. Stop destroying what we have.”

I stood there, my mind blank, staring at Tiffany as she sobbed at my feet.

“Wait, so Dr. Vance is the mistress?”

The question spread through the crowd like wildfire. The hall erupted.

I looked up sharply.

“No, I’m his wife…”

But my voice was swallowed by the noise.

They surged forward. Someone shoved a microphone in my face as the crowd hurled insults.

Even my colleagues looked at me with contempt.

Julian showed up right in the middle of it.

He crossed the stage and pulled Tiffany to her feet, murmuring to her.

“Hey, hey, it’s okay. It’s all a misunderstanding.”

Someone recognized him, and the crowd started shouting.

“Mr. Vance, is that Julian Vance from the Vance Group?”

“Didn’t think Dr. Vance was that type, sleeping with some billionaire.”

“Mr. Vance, Clara’s saying she’s your wife. Is that true?”

Something shifted in Julian’s expression as he pieced it together.

His eyes found mine.

I clenched my fists and held his gaze.

He looked away just as fast.

“Tiffany is the mother of my child. Dr. Vance is my wife’s doctor, that’s all.”

Something inside me broke.

He took Tiffany’s hand and walked out without looking back even once.

And he left me alone in the middle of it, a wall of malice closing in from every side.

The director said I’d embarrassed the hospital and placed me on administrative leave.

The overseas fellowship I’d been in line for went to someone else.

Five years. I’d lost my mother, my home, and now my last foothold.

Because of Julian, I had nothing left.
