Luckily, I decided to divorce and wouldn't be hurt by his actions and words anymore.
Next, I moved to Eva's house with my luggage.
Ian began to have no scruples. He took that woman to various events.
Before this, I was the only one who accompanied him to events.
Because of this change, many people speculated that there was a problem with our marriage.
When Eva told me about these things, I was still negotiating prices with a buyer for my bags.
I was indifferent to her words.
She got anxious and said, "Are you really going to sell all the bags and jewelry Ian gave you?"
"What else can I do? I can't leave this marriage with nothing."
He did not want to divorce now.
I would go through legal procedures for a forced divorce.
If things got ugly, I might get nothing but a divorce certificate.
I had not worked for four years. Without money, how could I survive?
"You are really clear-headed." Eva praised. "But I never thought Ian would cheat. He loved you so much before."
"What is love? Life is so long. Who can guarantee to love one person for a lifetime?"
Saying this, I rarely felt relieved.
My dad's situation was an example.
