The Neglected Wife's Spectacular Artistic Comeback

Jing Buhui Romance

“Kaitlynn cut her business trip short to surprise her husband for their third wedding anniversary. But when she quietly entered their apartment, she found him intimately stroking his secretary's hair. He had completely forgotten their special day, yet his secretary remembered. To make amends, he forced an awkward anniversary dinner for three. There, the secretary deliberately ate a dish she was severely allergic to. Julian immediately rushed the other woman to the hospital and publicly screamed at Kaitlynn for trying to poison her. The nightmare only escalated from there. Her mother-in-law used the incident to threaten her, demanding she produce a Sinclair heir within a year or be thrown out, brutally triggering Kaitlynn's past trauma. Julian then threw a fake surprise party just to assert his dominance. He refused to kiss Kaitlynn in front of their friends, all while wearing the secretary's bright red lipstick on his collar. When a drunk man physically attacked Kaitlynn on the terrace, Julian completely ignored her safety. But minutes later, he started a bloody, violent brawl when the same man simply insulted his secretary. Kaitlynn was suffocating. She couldn't understand how three years of devoted marriage could be so easily discarded for his flimsy excuse of professional responsibility. When she finally tested him by suggesting they have a child, the sheer, undeniable disgust on his face killed whatever love she had left. Sitting shattered in the dark, her phone suddenly lit up with an email from her old design school. "To our distinguished alumna, Ms. Kaitlynn Monroe." Not Mrs. Sinclair. Looking at her maiden name, Kaitlynn made her decision. It was time to leave this toxic family and reclaim the brilliant life she had left behind.”
