The Transactional Marriage That Imploded novel Chapter 187

The entries were filled with nothing but pure, unadulterated resentment toward him.

She complained that he forced her to do chores, banished her from the master bedroom, had an utterly insufferable family, threw constant temper tantrums, restricted her from leaving the house, and refused to let her drive his cars.

She had even secretly rejoiced that he only had three months left to live.

Once those agonizing three months were up, she would finally be free.

Reading the brutal entries made his chest ache with unbearable intensity.

During the first three months of their marriage, she had actively prayed for his death.

He didn't even dare confront her about her mindset back then, terrified she would say things far more devastating than what was on the screen.

Their shared past was nothing but a bloodied battlefield, but thankfully, he had zero desire to dwell on it anymore.

He only wanted a future with Bianca.

Walking back into the master bedroom, he gazed at Aveline sleeping peacefully on the bed, a profound ache tightening his throat.

Ever since the little girl had been conceived, it had been one disaster after another.

His horrific mistakes had nearly destroyed his entire family.

If only he hadn't recklessly intervened in the Quinn family's mess—but all the world's deepest regrets were built on 'what ifs.'

He had initially gotten involved just to protect Bianca, yet it ended up driving her completely away; everything had gone catastrophically wrong.

The damage was too deeply entrenched. The moment he signed those damning documents two years ago, the situation had spiraled completely out of his control.

He was trapped by his own terrible choices.

Cradling Aveline close, breathing in her sweet, milky scent, silent tears slipped down his face.

"I'm so sorry, sweetheart. I promise I won't let your mommy leave you."

Picking up an encrypted phone, he fired off a secure text message: Move faster. My wife is finalizing the divorce.
