Loving You To The Grave

Chapter 1

When Aki found out that Marina, her husband's first love, was carrying his baby, he got angry with Ethan.

A week later, Ethan told her that he was going to divorce her, but she did not agree.

Now that he knew about his illness, he could not deny it any longer. He dialed his hudband number with shaking hands, and he picked up after the third ring.

He said coldly, "I won't see you unless it's to get divorced."

Tears filled Aki's eyes as he forced himself to swallow his words about his illness. Marina's voice suddenly came over the phone in the background. "Ethan, it's time for the pediatric check-up."

The tears that Aki had been holding back for a long time flowed down her face at that moment. He is sick and the family he built is broken, but he has a new family. It's time for it all to end.

He no longer begged him like before. Instead, he said weakly, "Ethan, let's get a divorce."

Ethan was obviously stunned for a moment over the phone.

He laughed coldly and said, "Aki, what tricks are you playing this time?"

Aki closed his eyes and said, "Isn't this what you wanted for a long time, now I'm giving you your freedom, I'll wait for you at home."

It took all of his strength to hang up on him, and he slid to the ground against the wall.

He was wet from the rain while walking in the corridor holding his phone. She bit the sleeve of her dress while crying silently.

Ethan stared at his phone blankly after he hung up on him abruptly.

After a year of the silent treatment where he refused to divorce no matter what, why did he suddenly change his mind today? His voice sounded tearful as well.

Gazing out at the heavy rain, Ethan walked out of the ward.

"Ethan, where are you going?" Marina asked him while chasing after him with the babies in her arms. When she saw him walking away quickly, her gentle expression immediately grew frighteningly dark.

"Is that Aki, is he still wouldn't give up!"

It had been a long time since Ethan had last stepped into the house they shared during their marriage.

He had expected to see the dining table laden with his favorite dishes prepared by Aki, but the villa was dark and empty.

The sky always darkened too early during autumn. Night had fallen although it was only 6 pm.

Ethan spotted a vase of wilted flowers on the dining table. He knows Aki, he won't leave the withered flowers on the table, so there's only one possible reason.

Lately she hasn't been coming home and probably took care of her father in the hospital.

When Aki opened the door, he saw a tall man standing by the dining table in a suit. The expression on his handsome face was as cold as ice and his dark eyes were filled with deep hatred.

Aki was soaked from the run from the car to the house in the rain. When his icy gaze fell on him, a chill went down his spine.

"Where were you?" Ethan asked frigidly.

Aki's eyes, which always gleamed in the past, were dull at that moment.

He looked at her indifferently and said, "Since when do you care about me?"

Ethan sneered and said, "You won't be able to sign the papers if something happened to you."

His words stabbed his heart like sharp needles, he dragged his feet forward, dripping wet.

He did not cry or make a fuss but calmly pulled out the documents from an envelope.

"Don't worry, I've already signed them," he said.

He put the document on the dining table, and Ethan realized that he had never found the word "divorce" so displeasing in his life.

Aki only had one request, which was an alimony of ten million.

"I was wondering why you would suddenly agree to divorce. Turns out it's for money," he mocked. His scornful expression filled him vision.

"You're right, I changed my mind because of the money, the 10 million I'm asking you, Mr. Montifalco, is small right, in exchange for me signing the divorce papers you've been wanting for a long time"

Ethan was surprised how he would talk to him and how he would call him Mr. Montifalco.

"What did you call me?"

"Mr, Montifalco, why is it wrong! I have signed the documents that you have, if you have nothing to say, you can leave now Mr. Montifalco"
