I Want a Divorce by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 1

‘Your husband has cheated on you.‘

When Abigail Quinn received the text message from her best friend, she had

just taken an ovulation injection and was resting on the bench of the

outpatient clinic, trying to suppress the piercing pain in her abdomen. Her

hair was dark and her skin as fair as snow, but there was no trace of blood on

her face now. Even so, that didn’t overshadow her stunning looks and

passersby kept turning their heads to look at her.

Then, she inhaled deeply and tapped with a trembling finger, and opened the

picture on her cell phone to take a look. It was a picture of Sean Graham

holding a woman in a pink haute couture dress while walking out of a hotel.

The man’s usually cold and stoic face looked tender as he lowered his head

at the woman in the picture.

Abigail knew who that woman was, Sean’s first love, Joan Palmer.

and called him. She waited for a long time for the busy dial tone to end and

“Are you coming home tonight?” Actually, she wanted to ask if he even

wanted to return home.

Alas, it was clear that her call itself had already caused Sean to feel annoyed.

Thus, after a few seconds of silence, he said impatiently, “Is there an

important issue we need to discuss?”

Tears immediately welled up in her eyes, his indifferent voice stabbing her

heart like a knife, but she expertly masked her sadness. “Did you forget what

day it is today?”

They had been married in secret for three years, and except for that monthly

coitus, they rarely met with each other. Today was their wedding anniversary,

the day when he should return home. When they were in bed last month, he

promised her that he would spend the day with her.
