My Flirtacious Husband

“I was supposed to follow my mother after the divorce, but she remarried when I was in the second half of the eleventh grade. The man was rich and had his own children, so my mother arranged for me to study overseas to hide the fact that she had a child. She had often visited me in the first two years, but that was about it. She had stopped coming to visit me since then,” Johanna told her story in a hoarse voice.

Genevieve still remembered how Johanna used to tell her that her parents were the happiest couple in the world during their school days. At that time, Johanna also thought she was the luckiest girl in the world.

“He had never shown any concern about my life and death after divorcing my mom, yet he had the guts to sell me off? What a monster!”
