With a flick of my wrist, I flung the wedding ring from my finger. It arced through the air in a perfect parabola before landing with a splash in the fountain.
Amelia shrieked. "No!"
"Amelia, we're done."
Confusion flickered in her eyes. Her fingers, still resting on the car door, trembled slightly. "Why, Casey? I told you, I didn't mean to harm Aiden!"
"Aiden put his medication in my bag himself."
"I admit I shouldn't have left you like that, but I've been trying to make it up to you! I booked a table at The Eight Stars, the most exclusive restaurant in the city. You and Aiden would have loved it! I do care about you, you know."
"Casey, don't be so petty, okay?"
I laughed, a harsh, humorless sound.
Aiden had trusted her so completely that he had dared to put his life-saving medication in her bag.
And now, he was dead, and she was still making excuses, trying to convince me of her love. Didn't she realize how ridiculous she sounded?
"When we got married, we vowed to stay together forever. I don't want to be the laughingstock of our social circle, and I hope you won't break that vow either."
Amelia lifted her chin haughtily. "Just take a few days to cool off, Casey."
I took Aiden back to my hometown for his burial.
After the seventh day of mourning, I attended a celebratory dinner for a successful project my team had completed.
My colleagues and I were having a wild night, and as the party was winding down, Amelia, our CEO, unexpectedly showed up.
"Why is he so drunk? Didn't anyone try to stop him?"
Amelia's face was grim as she started spooning honey water into my mouth.
In the past, I never dared to come home smelling of alcohol after a work event. Even if I was wasted, I would find a hotel to clean up before returning.
Back then, I couldn't bear to see even a flicker of displeasure on Amelia's face.
Amelia immediately became suspicious. She pointed at the door to the private room and yelled, "Are you ashamed of our relationship? Or is there someone else?"
I almost burst out laughing. "Amelia, get a grip! We're divorced."
"Do you think I was joking the other day? We're over! There's nothing between us anymore! Even if I had someone else, it wouldn't be you! Please stay away from me, okay?"
If it weren't for the contract that hadn't expired yet, I would have left Williams Corp long ago. Why should I continue working for her?
"Casey! How can you talk to me like that?! I'm your wife!"
I looked at her with indifference, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "Remember, ex-wife!"
I shook her off and hailed a taxi.
That night, I created a group chat, added our respective assistants, and then blocked all of Amelia's contact information.
A decent ex should be like a ghost, shouldn't they?
