Chapter 2

My father started a small company, but it recently ran into financial trouble. We knew of Kenneth Bailey because my grandfather saved his grandfather's life back in the days. His grandfather proposed a marriage alliance, and our family was overjoyed, so they sold me for thirty million US dollars.

Prior to this, I had vaguely heard rumors about Kenneth. He was a school bully in school, and in society, he was a domineering CEO who made people tremble in fear. He's a ladies' man.

"Marry him, turn a blind eye, and fulfill the duties of a wife."

This was something my mother repeatedly reminded me, and I dare not forget.

So, even on our wedding night, despite the strong scent of his cologne when he hugged me earlier, I didn't say anything. When it was midnight and he hadn't entered my room yet, I breathed a sigh of relief. Men who eat outside should not want second helpings at home.

I took out my phone, and the messages were all wedding blessings from everyone. Thinking back to the current situation just now, I couldn't help but be amazed at its irony. As I scrolled down, I saw a familiar name, and my heart couldn't help but ache.

"You still love me, right? You are not the type of woman who is only after money."

It was Ryan Phillips. A senior in school, and also my ex-boyfriend. The message he sent was too long and childish, so I didn't have the patience to read it. I deleted it directly and blocked him.
