I Divorced Him After He Fed My Father’s Hope to Her Rabbit

My husband made three bids at the auction to secure the rare medicine that could save my father, only to turn around and give it to his college friend to feed her pet rabbit. I knelt in the pouring rain, pleading with him to show some compassion for the friendship and mentorship he once shared with my father. But instead of any empathy, I received the news that Phoenix Montgomery had taken my place as the lab assistant and was going abroad with him. It wasn't until the doctor delivered my father's third critical condition notice that I finally reached Silas on the phone. On the other end, Phoenix's voice chimed in, “Your husband is in the shower. Want me to pass on a message?” Gripping the phone so tightly my fingers turned white, I managed to say in an even tone, “Nothing urgent, just the divorce.” ... After hanging up, I went straight to the lawyer to draft the divorce papers. Turning around, I noticed Eden, one of my father's former students, arriving with concern. They were shocked that something so significant had happened, and I was left to bear it alone. I didn’t make any excuses for Silas.

Chapter 2

My father's health has finally improved.

It has been a month since Silas and I finalized our divorce. After completing the paperwork for my return to the research institute, I ran into Silas and Phoenix Montgomery as I was leaving. Phoenix was wearing Silas's jacket.

"Mila, I accidentally spilled some chemicals on my clothes in the lab, and Silas was worried about the potential harm, so he lent me his jacket," she explained.

I looked at Silas silently and nodded. Just as I was about to step around them and leave, Phoenix spoke again.

"Mila, where are you headed? Aren't you here for the farewell party Silas and I are having?"

Farewell party?

I frowned slightly, confusion clear in my eyes. Phoenix noticed my reaction and pretended to be surprised.

"Silas and I are heading to the States in three days. Everyone has arranged a farewell party for us. Didn't Silas mention it to you?"

"I came across a divorce agreement in Silas's room a few days ago. I thought you two were joking. Is it real?"

Phoenix's voice was loud enough for those heading to the restaurant to hear, and their eyes fell on Silas and me in disbelief. We were known as the model couple of the institute, and it was commonly joked about that divorce was impossible for us.

Hearing the murmurs around us, Silas frowned and walked over to me, draping his jacket over my shoulders.

"I've been caught up with work at the institute these past few days and forgot to mention the farewell party. Since you're here, why not join us?"

The room was filled with colleagues whom I got along with, so I didn't want to spoil the mood. At the gathering, Silas sat with Professor Judson Murphy on his left, while Phoenix naturally took the seat on his right. I found a random spot, ignoring Silas's searching gaze.

This was the first time Silas and I were sitting so far apart in such a setting.

"Mila, I heard your father's health is improving. I've been so tied up lately that I haven’t had the chance to visit," Professor Murphy, who was well-acquainted with my father, inquired after his health first.

Silas heard this and glanced over too. All this time, he hadn't once asked about my father's condition. Yet, when he was caught up in a controversy over falsified experimental data, it was my father who vouched for him, proving his innocence and saving his career at the institute.

"Yes, he's much better. He shouldn't have major issues for the next few years."

Phoenix, overhearing, turned to me with a tone of mock surprise.

"Mila, where did you find the treatment? If there's any spare, could you share some with me? The supplements Silas got at the fundraiser last time were a hit with my pet rabbit, Fluffy."

I stood at the altar, my fingers trembling slightly as they clutched my bouquet of white roses and lilies. The garden-themed venue was exactly as I'd dreamed—fairy lights twinkled among strategically placed greenery, transforming the upscale Manhattan ballroom into an enchanted forest. I'd spent months planning every detail, from the cascading ivy on the archway to the delicate floral centerpieces that adorned each table. My father, Marco, stood proudly beside me, his warm hand steady on mine. I caught his eye and he gave me a reassuring smile, the corners of his eyes crinkling with joy. He looked handsome in his tailored tuxedo, his salt-and-pepper hair neatly combed for the occasion. "You look beautiful, mi hija," he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. "Ryan is a lucky man." I squeezed his hand in response, too overwhelmed to speak. The string quartet played softly in the background, and the afternoon sunlight streamed through the venue's floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a golden glow over the assembled guests. I scanned the crowd, searching for Ryan's familiar face among the sea of smiling attendees.

I felt the tension in the conference room before Richard Chen even opened his mouth. The tech mogul's reputation for demanding perfection preceded him, and today was no exception. His sharp eyes scanned the presentation materials with the precision of a surgeon, his expression growing increasingly grim with each passing second. "The scheduling conflicts alone could cost us millions," Richard said, his voice dangerously quiet as he pointed to the tablet in front of him. "Three separate meetings with conflicting times. Two missed calls from potential investors. And this—" he tapped the screen with more force than necessary, "—a dinner reservation for six people at a restaurant that seats parties of eight maximum." I watched Drew shift uncomfortably beside me. Richard's criticism was directed at the young woman standing nervously at the edge of the table—Yasmin Watson, our newest intern. Her role was to coordinate logistics for this important client meeting, and clearly, she'd made significant errors. "I'm sorry, Mr.
