After She Betrayed Me, Divorce is the Best OptionChapter 1
Julia Brown, my mother-in-law, suddenly had a heart attack. I had set aside 100,000 dollars for emergencies just for her. But my wife, Sophie Brown, ended up lending that lifesaving cash to her ex-boyfriend, Connor Gibson, to gamble on soccer.
I pressed Sophie to get the money back from Connor, but she scolded me for being short-sighted. "Why the rush? Do you really think Connor is going to stiff you?
Just wait till he wins tonight. He'll pay back everything, with interest. Don't act like you've never seen money before!"
Then I heard Connor yelling through the phone, "Sophie, look, it's a goal!"
Before I could respond, Sophie quickly hung up.
In the end, because we missed the critical window for treatment, Julia passed away in tears.
"Just start the surgery on her, please. I'll get the money to you ASAP," I pleaded.

I was so desperate that I even knelt in front of the doctors.
