The Internet’s Favorite Couple Was My Marriage’s Worst Nightmar novel Chapter 42

Book 4

Chapter 1

Ten years ago, Thane Cole held a knife to his own throat and told his parents he would

marry no one but me.

Ten years later, he picked up that knife again. But this time, it was to make me apologize to his young mistress.

The same Thane who once promised never to betray me now shields the trembling girl in his arms, looking at me like I’m some kind of monster, with no trace of his former love.

In a daze, I remember the boy who swore he’d love me forever.

And suddenly I realize-

Our ten–year marriage has finally reached its end.

So for the first time, I suggest divorce: “Thane, let’s set each other free.”

“I don’t agree with the divorce!”

Thane rejected my request without a second thought.

He frowned slightly, glancing down at Lily, who he still held protectively in his arms. Seeming to realize something, he slowly released her. But he kept her safely behind him, guarding her as if I might hurt her.

The knife he gripped in his hand–its tip remained pointed at me, cold and cutting.

“Sophie, I promise you, Lily won’t affect your standing at all.”

After a pause, he continued: “But you must promise me you won’t cause any more trouble

for her.”

The “trouble” Thane referred to?

Just like–the clear, humiliating handprint now visible on Lily’s face.

If Thane had arrived any later, I might have grabbed Lily’s hair and smashed her face

against the coffee table, using the shattered glass from the broken water cup to cut up her

face and hands, ensuring she’d never show herself to me again.

Insane and vicious thoughts.

But I used to be a person with stable emotions. For years, I rarely argued with anyone, let alone fought physically.

Acting so recklessly, lashing out like this–was unprecedented for me.

I looked back at my two children, hiding in the bedroom but stubbornly peeking through a

crack in the door–my Emma and Noah.

Their faces still showed visible pinch marks, all thanks to Lily. So I couldn’t control myself

to hit her.

Thane was clearly shocked by my behavior. The young woman he’d been spoiling for over a

year now covered her swollen face, crying to him about my cruelty.

And that boy who once promised never to let me down?

With fury in his eyes, ignoring our children’s cries, he grabbed the knife from the counter when I tried to lunge at her again. He pressed it against my throat, demanding I calm down.

Yet once before, he had pressed that same knife to his own throat, telling his parents he

would marry no one but me. That’s how we got married, had our lovely children, and completed our family.

Unfortunately, both things and people have all changed.

“Sophie, we’ve been married for ten years. Our lives are too intertwined. Even if we die, we must die together, understand?”

Thane’s eyes were determined as he spoke, completely missing Lily’s resentful gaze.

She wanted my place–otherwise, this year–long affair, hidden so carefully by Thane,

protected by my absolute trust in him, I should never have discovered it.

But Lily deliberately sought me out.

This girl whom Thane and I had jointly supported through school showed up boldly at my

door with photo after photo of herself with Thane.

“Sophie, I’m grateful to you and Thane for supporting my education.”
