3.
Upon seeing me, he arrogantly declared, “Nora, Genevieve advised me to bring you back. home. She said you’re penniless, sulking outside, borrowing money everywhere. You have no job, and in the end, I’ll have to repay all these loans you’ve taken!”
I laughed.
Yes, in Declan’s eyes, I’m indeed a freeloader waiting for death!
How could I have money to rent a place? How could I live without him?
Declan frowned, “Why are you laughing? I’ve been generous enough to come and get
you. Don’t be ungrateful.
Sierra, unwillingly, added, “Mom, don’t be so unreasonable. Don’t make things difficult for
Genevieve!”
A pang hit my heart.
“Genevieve?”
Declan’s gaze shifted, looking slightly uneasy.
Sierra pouted, “Why that expression? You’re so lousy, and you won’t let me find someone
better to be my mom?
If I had any lingering feelings for my daughter, they disappeared completely now.
I didn’t respond to her; I just told Declan, “Sign the divorce papers quickly and stop
bothering me.”
“What do you mean by bothering!”
He was so angry he approached me and slapped me across the face.

“Slap!”
The sharp sound echoed, and I didn’t react. The employment offer letter I was holding fell to the ground.
The name of a top 100 financial company in the country shone brightly.
Declan’s gaze fell on it.
My head was still buzzing.
He picked up the offer letter from the ground glanced at it several times, then threw it at
me.
“Nora, I thought you were just incompetent, a parasite at home, and that was it!”
“Now you’re even forging job offer letters from top companies?”
“Even if you want to prove to me you’re not a parasite, you don’t need to go this far to match up to even a strand of Genevieve’s hair!”
He sneered, giving me an ultimatum: “I’m telling you, if you don’t come home, then our
home is never yours again!”
I shook myself out of it and glared coldly at him.
This reaction made Declan feel a bit guilty.
After all, I used to be obedient, as loyal as a dog.
When he hit me, I just thought of it as marital fun.
He steadied himself, “What kind of expression is that? Do you want to hit me? Dare you!”
