I stared at the message from my mother-in-law, Wendy Gilmore, and felt my breathing stutter to a stop.Then, I lifted my head and immediately spotted my wife, Natania Gilmore, seated right on Samuel Greene's lap.This was the 108th time I had caught her being intimate with another man. My arrival caught not just her attention, but her friends' as well. They immediately started jeering at me. "Nat, looks like your husband is here to drag you home to try for a baby again.""Who would've thought he would still be so insistent after all these years? Does he really need a woman that much?"Their disdainful words and mocking laughter stabbed at my ears, yet all Natania did was curl her lips into a small smile. She didn't seem the slightest bit panicked at being caught in the act. In fact, she went as far as to boldly tug Samuel closer by his tie and press a searing kiss to his bobbing Adam's apple, not caring that I was right there.Her actions drew a round of shrieks and applause f

"Nat, didn't you say that Leon never visits Jon on his death anniversary? Why is he suddenly here?" Samuel spoke up from beside Natania, his fingers tightly interlocked with hers. Then, as if he had just realized something, he plastered a look of terror on his face."Could it be that because I look so much like Jon, he's come here specifically to kill me?""That's bullshit!"Fury surged within me at the way Samuel was deliberately twisting the truth. I lost control and threw a punch at his face. In the next second, however, I was pinned to the ground by Natania's bodyguards.I raised my head to stare at her in shock.She scowled at me, her gaze frosty. "Sam is right. You deserve a beating for daring to act out in front of Jon."As she spoke, she accepted a wooden bat from a bodyguard and smashed it against my knee.With a sharp, sickening crack, my kneecap shattered, sending me crashing to the ground before Jonathan's grave. My face drained of color as pain consumed me. "Y

A divorce agreement stared coldly back at Natania.Her breathing hitched, and she let out a cold laugh before snatching up the pen I offered her. "At least you're aware that your constant pestering over the years has caused me nothing but disgust. Are you betting on the fact that I wouldn't dare sign it? Well, I can't wait to be rid of you!"As she spat those words at me, she signed her name on the agreement with such force the pen nearly tore through the paper. Once finished, she tossed it down with a loud clatter, though her fingers continued to tremble. Beside her, Samuel couldn't contain his delight when he saw her sign the papers. He locked his fingers tightly with Natania's and cried out, "Nat, this means I can finally stand proudly by your side!"I watched the pair for a moment, absorbing their expressions before standing up. "Mdm. Gilmore, I failed to fulfill the promise I made to you three years ago. Don't worry. From now on, I won't interfere in Natania's life anymore.

I let out a long sigh. "Mr. and Mrs. Sander, the police conducted a thorough investigation back then and found sufficient evidence to prove I wasn't the killer. I almost lost my life that day as well. What else could you possibly want from me?"I no longer harbored any expectations of my parents, nor did I waste any breath trying to explain myself as I had in the past. They were taken aback, clearly unprepared for the sudden change in how I addressed them. My mother was the first to recover, her lips curling in contempt. "Who knows if you bribed someone to fake that evidence? Did you think you would gain our sympathy by injuring yourself? That car was perfectly fine—why would it suddenly skid? Someone must have tampered with it!"I didn't even want to look at them anymore."No matter what I say, you won't believe me. Since I'm no longer part of the Sander family and no longer your son, you can have me arrested if you're so certain of my guilt."As soon as I finished, my fathe
