Chapter 1 My Wife’s Cheating on Me
At 3 p.m. at the construction site, it was hot and the bricks of 50 degrees were extremely hot.
"It would be nice to have a bottle of iced coke at this time!"
I was unloading hard at the construction site. I looked at my worn gloves and pressed my dry lips.
Since the bankruptcy of the company three years ago, in order to support my beautiful wife and naive and lovely son, I bought a second-hand truck and made deliveries.
In order to earn more money, I would also help unload. When it rained or there was no delivery, I would deliver takeout as a part-time job.
However, just after unloading the goods from the truck and I was ready to take another order, the phone suddenly rang.
I picked up my cell phone and saw that it was my wife. I quickly answered.
"Honey, what's up?"
Although we had been married for seven years, I still called her honey and loved her as before.
"Dad..."
However, it was my five-and-a-half-year-old son.
He said in a broken voice.
"What's the matter, Shawn? Do you annoy your mom again?" I smiled and asked my naughty son.
Because most of the time my son called me to complain. I think this time was no exception.
"No, an uncle came to my house for dinner. After dinner, the uncle picked up mom and went to the room. Then the uncle kept beating mom and mom cried... Dad, when will you come back? I'm so scared..."
After I heard my son's answer, my smile froze, and my head suddenly went blank!
That was not beating. They were obviously having an affair!
After that, I didn't listen to what my son said because I had a breakdown!
I could even vaguely hear the intermittent voice of my wife on the phone!
I breathed faster because of the pain and anger and faster, and my hands were trembling!
After hanging up, I staggered. My head was buzzing, and I felt dizzy for a moment...
Why? Why did she do that?
I had never treated my wife badly since I got married!
Even if the company went bankrupt, I didn't let her go out to work and doted on her.
I worked hard day and night, and earned about 20000 a month.
Life was very hard now. I could hold on as long as my wife and son didn’t suffer, and I firmly believed that I can make a comeback!
...
I met my wife at a friend's wedding banquet ten years ago.
She was beautiful and had bright eyes and a good figure.
At one glance, I fell in love with her and began to pursue her crazily!
Although I was handsome and talented at that time, she, who was cool, always ignored me.
Because I had no money and came from the countryside. Also, I was just an inferior designer in a state-owned enterprise, with a monthly salary of less than 10000.
Living in a well-off family in the city, she was spoiled by her family and was used to it, so she looked down on me.
In the process of chasing her, she even told me clearly several times that she could not marry a poor guy like me!
But I didn't give up. Her refusal became the driving force for me to work hard.
In order to pursue her, I directly quit my job on the civil service establishment of state-owned the state-owned enterprise, started trading, and set up my own design company with a loan.
I took advantage of my professional advantages and the connections I had accumulated when working in state-owned enterprises, and my design company prospered!
At first, I had nothing. But now my company had a large scale and was strong. In less than three years, my design company had taken hold in the market, and I was worth more than a million!
My company could take orders of interior decoration or the design of the overall structure of large buildings, and had done a good job. It had won the unanimous praise of customers!
She saw my potential, the prospect of my company and my sincerity to her.
So, in my fourth year of pursuing her, when I put two million betrothal gifts in front of her parents, she promised to marry me!
After a year of marriage, my worth had been over ten million, and she gave birth to a boy for me.
I was successful in business and career. Standing at the peak of my life, I was also generous. I directly bought a house of nearly three million for her parents and a 500000 Audi for her sister!
Every festival festival, I would give tens of thousands to her parents.
My father-in-law and mother-in-law were very fond of me and praised me in front of relatives and friends every day!
I also brought my mom who had trouble walking to the city. But after she came, she always told me that she was not used to living in the city.
She said she didn't like to take off her shoes when she entered the house. She didn't like watching the TV alone all day. She didn't like the smelly air.
She told me every day that she wanted to go back to the countryside to grow vegetables and raise chickens. It was so free.
I know that mom liked to stay in the countryside.
My father died early. My mom set up a stall and sold vegetables and fruits to ear money so as to pay my tuition and living expenses!
I had no way and my mom insisted on going back to the countryside. Finally, I had to spend more than one million to build a villa for her in my hometown and gave her a bank card with one million in it.
In the next two years, my family life was happy and my company was expanding. I became a somewhat famous boss in the market.
However, the happy life didn’t last long. Due to my negligence, the design scheme provided by our employees was found to have copied the works of another design company two years ago in the bidding of a large-scale construction project by the tenderer!
As the legal person of the corporate, I was taken to court!
Finally, the court ruled that my company should compensate the other party for the infringement fee of 20 million!
For a time, because my company was running out of cash and its reputation was damaged, my company went bankrupt and I owed millions of dollars in debt!
I paid off the debt by selling all my assets with the one million cash I had given my mom as well as all her savings she had saved over the years.
Then, when I just was 30, I began to make deliveries with a truck, unload and deliver takeout for two years.
During this period, I also thought of various ways to get money to start the company again.
But because of personal credit, the bank didn't even lend me 10000.
I went to my father-in-law and mother-in-law to borrow money. After all, I gave them two million betrothal gifts.
But they said that they needed to keep the two million to buy a house for their younger daughter as her dowry, and directly refused me.
My former business friends avoided me even more. They even laughed at me and said that my reputation had been ruined by me. Even if I reopened the company, I could not get the project.
Once I was very successful, but now I was nobody...
But even so, I had never given in nor my faith wavered.
I had two jobs and worked hard. And I used 10000 a month and save 10000. When I had enough money, I could start again in another city!
Besides, my design talent was innate. As long as I had start-up funds and ran the company conscientiously, I could make a comeback!
However, my wife’s cheating on me was a bolt from the blue, which made me lose all my faith and desire!
She had always been the driving force of my work and my belief!
Now that faith was gone, I had a breakdown...
The more I thought about it, the more disappointed I was and the angrier I was!
So I took out a wrench from the toolbox, put it in the passenger seat, and then started the truck!
Yes, I'll hammer them!
