I didn’t have the habit of buying lottery tickets. I was urged to buy this ticket at the end of a party with my colleagues some time ago.

But I didn't expect to win the first prize.

I thought I could give Nina a good life, but I didn't expect that she had already planned to leave me.

I sat on the sofa all night, smoking one cigarette after another, but still couldn't figure out who Nina's affair was with.

She didn't go out to work, and I never saw Nina contacting her friends.

The only men she would come into contact with might be my colleagues in the company.

But if she didn’t like me, could she like my colleagues?

I couldn't come up with a reason, and soon it was time to go to court with Nina as planned.

If it was just a problem with our relationship, maybe I would try to save it, but Nina had already had an affair. There was no need to continue this marriage.

I walked out of the house with my ID card and the marriage certificate.

I waited at the entrance of the court for more than half an hour before Nina finally arrived.

She was driving a dark red sports car, wearing a Chanel-style suit, and had a large diamond ring on her hand.

She looked so rich.

In just one day, she seemed to have changed like a new person.

When she saw me, Nina took off her sunglasses, looked me up and down, and shook her head.

“Jacob, is this outfit you bought the year you graduated from college?”

It was true that I rarely bought myself new clothes, but it wasn't because I didn't have any money.

It's because I want to spend more on Nina, which, now that I thought about it, was ridiculous.

I pulled the corners of my mouth and responded, “How can I compare to you? You just asked for a divorce last night and now you have a new look.”

Nina seemed to not understand the sarcasm in my tone, or maybe she understood it but didn't care.

She looked at her freshly painted nails with a lazy and satisfied expression.

“People always want a better life. Is there a problem with me wanting a better life?”

"No, but it's the first time I've seen someone resort to cheating to get a better life."

I couldn't hide the mockery in my tone, and Nina's expression changed when she heard it.

She put her hand down and looked at me, then walked towards the courtroom.

"Compared to the end, the process is unimportant."

I watched Nina's graceful figure and suddenly realized that the girl who used to blush when she asked me math questions back then had unknowingly disappeared for so long.

It didn't take long to get a divorce, and the six years of affection between us disappeared completely in just six minutes.

Beside us were young couples holding marriage certificates. Their faces were filled with happy smiles.

Two years ago, Nina and I were like that too.

When she turned around, Nina looked at the divorce certificate in her hand and smiled with satisfaction.

She put on her sunglasses again and raised her chin at me.

"For the love we once shared, I can give you a ride. You've never been in a sports car before, have you?"

Nina said with arrogance and self-satisfaction in her tone. I didn't answer her words but turned away directly.

Her mocking voice sounded behind me.

"Jacob, just keep walking on your own legs your whole life!"

I took out a mask from my pocket, put it on, and put on the hat of my clothes. After disguising myself, I walked towards the store where I bought the lottery ticket that day to cash in my prize.

After cashing in my prize, I refused all the reporters' interviews and didn't rush home, but followed the path to a random clothing shop and changed out of my clothes before coming back out.

And the first decision I made was to resign from the current company.

I had been working in this company since I graduated from university.

Not only was the work hard, but the boss also occasionally found reasons to scold us.

The interns who came in at the same time as me had almost left, and the reason I had been sticking around was Nina.

I worked hard in the company, just to get a small commission every month, so that I could give Nina a better life.

I didn’t dare to quit or rest. I didn’t even give myself much time for lunch every day.

But now, I finally had the confidence to resign.

"You want to quit?"

The boss raised an eyebrow and looked at me, with a faint smile in his eyes for some unknown reason.

I ignored the uncomfortable feeling and nodded.

He turned the pen in his hand and casually put my resignation letter aside. When he looked at me and smiled with his eyes narrowed, I saw the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

"Jacob, it's not easy to find a job now. Your wife hasn't been working, right? What will she do now that you've resigned?"

I instinctively frowned.

"Don't worry, boss."

But he seemed determined to care about my private affairs.

The boss stood up and walked over to me, patting me on the shoulder.

“Young man, it's common for life to not go well. If you have any disagreements with your wife, you should be tolerant of her.”

“After all, it's not easy to get married without a house or a car nowadays.”

There was an obvious smirk in his tone, which wasn't friendly.

I compressed my lips and didn't want to say much. I nodded casually and turned to leave.

After all, resigning didn’t require the boss's approval.

As I walked out of the office, I heard the sound of my boss's phone ringing, and his voice suddenly became soft.

“Oh, what's wrong, sweetheart? Buying a bag? Go ahead, buy as many as you like. I can afford that.”

“Oh, we're getting married next week. Don't worry, how could I deceive you?”

If at this moment, I didn’t know who the sweetheart was, I knew the truth of the matter three days later.

I received a wedding invitation.

The bride's name was Nina Collins, and the groom's name was Luke Waston.

Luke Waston was my former boss.

Looking at the red invitation in my hand, I felt like I was being played by them like a clown.

“Boss, do we also need to throw away this sofa?”

Raising my head, the moving guy pointed to the sofa on the side and asked.

This sofa was bought by Nina and me when we moved into the rented house. Nina thought the sofa had left by the landlord was uncomfortable, so I spent several thousand dollars to buy a new one.

Those few thousand dollars may not seem like much now, but for me, a freshly graduated intern, it was my two months' salary.

"No, just put it here."

"Okay, boss."

I had moved all my belongings. The new house I bought was on the top floor in the city center, and it was a large flat.

I didn’t buy the sports car that Nina said I would never be able to afford. I bought a large sedan that was more suitable for me.

Apart from buying some necessities and furnishings in the new house, I gave two million to my parents and donated 200 thousand dollars to impoverished mountain areas. Then I took out some money for investments and saved the rest in the bank.

On the day of the wedding, I drove to the venue in the newly bought car.

I was mocked at the scene of my ex-wife's wedding.
