Seeing him reach for the diary, I quickly closed it and stuffed it into the drawer.
“Nothing.”
He sensed my panic and seemed to think of something:
“You girls are so delicate, always writing grudges in your little books. Is this the grudge book you mentioned?”
He was referring to our wedding after we got married, when he lost the wedding rings.
11:56 PM

He had to use two soda can tabs as a substitute to exchange rings with me.
That night, I was so angry I kicked him off the bed:
“Nathan, you’re killing me. I’m going to curse you in my grudge book.”
He laughed through his tears: “Write whatever you want, I can always win you back.”
Realizing he had misunderstood, I didn’t bother to explain and just nodded halfheartedly.
Remembering the sweetness of our newlywed days, his cold face finally showed a rare smile:
“Alright, I said I could definitely win you back, so no more holding grudges. Come take a look.”
He handed me a property deed and casually pulled me into his arms.
“It’s a new building in the city center. I specially kept it to give you as a gift.”
“The video has been urgently dealt with. Next month, I’ll let you make a comeback, okay?”
The maid outside peeked in enviously.
But I remained stiff and unmoving, saying flatly:
“Whatever you say.”
Seeing that I was unmoved by either kindness or harshness, his brows furrowed, a hint of anger in his eyes:
“Are you determined to make an issue of this?”
I looked up, my eyes dark as I stared at him:
“No, how would I dare, Mr. Nathan?”
My words immediately set Nathan off.
“Sophia, I took those videos, and I was careless in letting Lauren see them. If you’re angry, take it out on me. Understand?”
For a moment, it felt like a heavy stone was pressing on my chest.
He could do anything for Lauren, even humble himself in front of me, or sacrifice himself for her.
I suddenly felt so tired.
I didn’t want to be entangled with them anymore.
So I calmly agreed: “I understand.”
Seeing that his punch had hit cotton, he frowned and gritted his teeth, staring at me for a long time before finally slamming the door as he left.
The next day, Nathan sent a message asking me to come to the golf course.
I was going to reply that i wouldn’t go, but the next second a message came:
“I’ll count it as one forgiveness voucher.”
Looking at these words, thinking this was the last time, I eventually went.
As soon as I entered the private golf course, I didn’t see Nathan. Instead, someone kicked me from behind, knocking me to the ground.
Lauren’s voice drifted over:
11:56 PM
<
“Don’t bother looking. I’m the one who invited you.”
As she finished speaking, two bodyguards restrained me.
Then clubs began to rain down on my legs furiously. Blood splattered as I screamed in agony.
Fighting through the excruciating pain, I shouted:
“Lauren, have you gone mad!”
She smiled sweetly, but her eyes flashed with venom:
“Sophia, how dare you! You’re already a pariah, yet Nathan still won’t divorce you. He even says he needs to make it up to you and help you make a comeback.”
“Sophia, tell me! How dare you?!”
Nathan treats her like a goddess, and even his casual words to placate me are worth her making such a big fuss?
Utterly exasperated, I said coldly:
“I’m not trying to compete with you.”
Seeing that I knew my place, she snorted and said haughtily:
“But I just can’t stand the sight of you. You’re a supermodel, right? Well, I’ll break your legs and see how you seduce Nathan then!”
Looking at the sticky blood on my pant leg, she retched in disgust. Her eyes fell on a golf ball nearby.
As if suddenly thinking of something, she smiled eerily.
“Strip her pants!” Her voice was shrill.
“Last time we didn’t get to stuff the egg. What a pity. There’s a ball right here. Sophia, I guarantee you’ll feel ecstasy today!”
She caressed the golf ball in her hand and ordered the bodyguards to strip my pants.
I struggled desperately, roaring like a wild beast.
Lauren giggled in my ear, grabbing my face, her manicured nails leaving bloody scratches:
“Don’t scream! You’ll feel so good soon, better than any man! I promise you’ll be addicted!”
Looking at her ugly face, I flashed back to Nathan’s countless rebukes, disgust, and cold stares because of her,
Tears suddenly poured out, giving me the courage to throw caution to the wind.
I was leaving anyway.
Why should I let her bully me!
Just as my pants were about to be pulled down, strength came from nowhere. I suddenly pushed away the bodyguards and charged at Lauren.
Then I opened my mouth and bit down hard on her hand, Lauren let out a piercing scream, frantically trying to tear my mouth away.
But I wouldn’t let go no matter what. The taste of blood filled my nose as 1 bit off half of Lauren’s finger.
“What are you doing?” Nathan’s stern roar came from behind.
As he rushed in, he came face to face with my blood–covered face and half–stripped lower body.
11:58 PM
Realizing Lauren was bullying me, he was shocked!
He kicked the bodyguards away and quickly pulled up my pants, his eyes filled with anxiety.
“Sophia, what happened? Don’t be afraid, I’ll… take you to the hospital!”
But Lauren suddenly screamed, showing him her bloody half–finger, her cries shrill and almost piercing the air:
“Nathan, she bit off my finger! My hand is ruined!”
“It hurts so much! Nathan, save me, please!”
Nathan’s expression changed dramatically. He turned to look at me in shock, caught in a dilemma.
But after just a moment, he tossed me a few words and hurriedly picked up Lauren.
“The survival time for a finger is low. I’ll take her to the hospital first. Call an ambulance yourself. I’ll come pick you up later.”
Hearing this, my heart suddenly plummeted into an endless abyss,
So, he wasn’t unaware of Lauren’s vicious nature. He was just biased.
Hooked up at him, my eyes full of desolation:
“Nathan, this is the last time.”
Nathan looked at my completely hardened expression and suddenly felt a pang in his heart, feeling as if he had lost something important.
But feeling the broken and shattered person in his arms, he still chose to abandon me without hesitation.
As he was leaving, he looked at me earnestly, pleading:
“I know you’re wronged. I’ll definitely give you an explanation this time.”
“Just… don’t call the police… please.”
Watching his back disappear with my own eyes, I didn’t go to the hospital. I just dragged my injured leg back to the villa.
Sure enough, as soon as I got home, the maid handed me the 99th property deed.
It was for this villa.
I locked it in the safe.
Along with my diary, divorce agreement, and contract termination papers, I placed them on the table.
I took a note and left him a line:
“The life debt is repaid, love cannot continue. Nathan, let’s divorce.”
I took what little luggage I had and checked in for a flight to Yunnan.
Nathan, this is how it ends between us.
As the plane streaked across the sky, Nathan returned home, exhausted.
The room was empty and silent. He was confused and called me.
He noticed the note on the bedroom table and was about to pick it up when a cold, mechanical female voice came from his phone.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed is not available…
<
And in the next second, when he saw the large characters on the note, his pupils suddenly constricted!
“The life debt is repaid, love cannot continue. Nathan, let’s divorce.”
Nathan’s mind went blank, barely recognizing the word “divorce.”
He picked up the paper, turning to the last page, and only then did he clearly see the three large characters signed: Sophia.
He finally realized that Sophia really wanted to divorce him.
Looking at the contract termination agreement laid out before his eyes, he angrily smashed his phone.
Then he called my agent, roaring furiously:
“You dared to terminate her contract behind my back. Do you want to die?”
The agent was terrified and could only weakly explain:
“Mr. Nathan, didn’t you tell us that Lauren was seriously injured, and unless the sky was falling, not to bother you?”
Nathan’s body stiffened.
