My Perfect Marriage Was His Perfect Crime novel Chapter 68

"So, Emily Grayson, go ahead and have someone investigate. I'm always ready. Soon, you'll find that the company's profits aren't enough to pay the accountants' fees!"

He looked at me smugly, every word dripping with disdain.

This ungrateful dog of a man!

When he first interned at my father's company, he didn't stand out at all and had no chance of staying.

It was when I went to visit my dad that he and I had a fateful encounter.

My father saw how much I liked him and arranged for him to take on a good position.

Later, he promoted him without hesitation to become the department head.

When I insisted on marrying him, my mom disagreed, but it was my father who convinced her. He said that my happiness was their greatest joy.

He treated Kingsley Rowen like his own son, personally teaching him many things that would serve him for life.

When we got married, my parents bought a villa under Kingsley Rowen's name for our wedding, to save face for him.

They even convinced me to bring my parents-in-law from the countryside to live in the city in comfort.

Not long after my mom passed away from cancer, my dad also passed away.

Before they died, both of them tearfully asked Kingsley Rowen to love me well.

At the time, he agreed so readily, but once Madeline Johanson appeared, he became utterly heartless.

He began traveling more frequently, always going to meet Madeline Johanson in secret.

Later, he started to leave me alone and took our two daughters to visit Madeline Johanson, trying to get them closer to her.

"Emily Grayson, the company your father left behind was a complete mess. I've already done enough by not letting it sink into massive debt.

If you want to blame someone, blame yourself.

You're a bad luck star, you don't have the fortune to support a man!"

“You wouldn't want the girls, would you? The company's profits are so little, just consider it their support money!”

I curled my lips into a cold smile. “So, you want me to leave empty-handed?”

Madeline Johanson quickly chimed in, “If I were you, I'd be too embarrassed to fight for the property.

Someone's been managing the company for me, and I'd be grateful, not demanding anything more..."

Seeing her look of delight, I couldn't take it anymore. I slapped her hard across the face.
