Fortunately, when we got married, the government forced Jackie and I to each save 20000 dollars for our living expenses. Daily living expenses were automatically deducted from this monthly allowance.

If we didn’t file for a divorce, the system would never settle the unreasonable amount. But even so, the total amount Jackie spent on his first love was only a little over 1000 dollars. Why was he so nervous when we brought up the divorce settlement today? It was as if he had taken advantage of me for more than just this little bit...

Before I could figure it out, a message suddenly came to my phone from Jackie's colleague.

[Jackie, has your wife found out about what happened last time? She won't be angry, will she?]

I read it, confused, and the message was instantly withdrawn.

Still puzzled, the door suddenly opened. It was Jackie returning with my mother-in-law.

Behind him was his first love, Riley Connor.

"Lilian, you know who she is, right?" My mother-in-law smiled and gave me a show of force as soon as she entered.

I stared at them, silent, eager to see what they were up to. Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law couldn't help herself.

"I just found out today that Riley has always been in love with my son. I think she's destined to have a son. That's all I'm saying. Either buy me an apartment as compensation, apologize to me, and take the initiative to cover my living expenses this year."

She paused for a moment, "Or, I'll have my son divorce you and marry Riley!"

"Okay, then let's get a divorce. Don't delay your happy event." I replied immediately.

Perhaps not expecting my immediate agreement, the determined look on my mother-in-law's face froze before it could even fade.

Jackie was furious. He rushed over, pointed his finger at my face, and started yelling, "Lilian, are you fucking having someone else? No wonder you're asking for a divorce! You're cheating on me, aren't you?!"

The noise was so loud that passing neighbors stopped at my door. My mother-in-law even opened the door.

"Come and see my shameless daughter-in-law!"

Instantly, the neighbors began pointing and whispering. My blood boiled in my chest. Looking at my mother-in-law's arrogant expression, she seemed to enjoy casually slandering me. I couldn't take it anymore and slapped Jackie.

"You're really sick!"

I immediately packed my things and took my daughter to the hospital. I sent my daughter to my mother's house and moved to the company to spend the night.

But unexpectedly, the next day at work, a colleague came up to me with a sullen look on his face.

"Lilian, go check it out! The boss knows everything."

My mind went blank as I rushed over, only to discover that my mother-in-law had actually found my company.

We were just sitting downstairs at the company and a scene erupted.

Amidst the throng, my mother-in-law held a banner and shouted from a loudspeaker, "Lilian! You cheated on me behind my son's back, you slut! You've squandered all my son's money, leaving me helpless in my old age without even a place to live. Give me back my son's hard-earned money!"

My intern, Julio Parker, left late last night and listened to my entire story. He was furious and volunteered to rush down with me.

He even explained to the onlookers, "There's no such thing. It's because Lilian ate an extra piece of meat that her mother-in-law is forcing her to divorce!"

My mother-in-law saw this and, as if she had caught something, she leaped over, grabbed Julio's arm, and cursed.

"Everyone, come and see. This is the cheater!"

She even thought there weren't enough people around, and she actually pulled out her phone and started a live stream. The camera was focused on us, and my mother-in-law was behind her phone, spitting and screaming nonsense.

"Look, everyone! This is my daughter-in-law and her cheater. My son's been married to her for ten years, and this is how she treats him. She's spent all his money on other men. What a filthy relationship!" My mother-in-law kept looking around the company.

Seeing her boss standing in the crowd, she even yelled, "How can you still keep someone like that in your company? They should be fired! And that intern. He's no good either."

As the crowd gathered, my mother-in-law kept spouting nonsense, causing Julio, who was speaking up for me, to be caught in the crossfire. I was completely furious.

Julio was a good boy, and he was about to marry his fiancée. They'd been dating for ten years. How could he be smeared and his happiness ruined just because of me?

"Enough! What's wrong with you? When did I ever do such a thing?"

I rushed over to grab her phone, but she collapsed to the ground, crying and shouting, "Come and see. Someone's bullying the elderly!"

My mother-in-law became increasingly outrageous, her livestream boasts of extravagant things.

Soon, passersby who had seen the livestream rushed over to watch the fun. Someone even started their own livestreams, making up stories about me and my intern, Julio.

The onlookers were discussing:

"This woman's husband is so pitiful! He has to support his wife and still be cuckolded."

"He married a wife like this and he can't even support his own mother!"

I stood helplessly in the crowd, and suddenly spotted a familiar figure. Jackie was hiding behind the crowd, allowing his mother to slander me like this. I was so angry I almost suffocated. Seeing this, my mother-in-law smugly spat at me and continued her exaggerated rants.

I suppressed my anger, stared at my mother-in-law, and said coldly, "Okay, you said I spent all your son's money. Today we'll settle the accounts and find out who did it!"

I looked up at the AA system. The divorce keyword had indeed activated it again.

[Intention detected. Confirm divorce? System bill settlement is being prepared—]

In the crowd, Jackie's calm expression suddenly vanished upon hearing this, replaced by fear and panic.

"No, Lilian! If you open it today, our marriage will be over!" He was furious and even threatened me.

Looking at his expression, I sneered at the system, "Confirm the divorce. How much does it cost for expedited settlement?"

[VIP membership is only 50 dollars. Results will be available in one minute.]

As soon as I finished speaking, all the cameras in the room were focused on me. Those watching the show also stared at me, mocking me.

"How can such a wasteful woman, who cheated on her husband, spend less than her husband? I'd never believe it!"

I nodded without hesitation. "Okay, open the VIP account if you have one. Open the public screen and share it with everyone here. Today, I'm inviting everyone to see a detailed breakdown of our expenses over the past ten years of marriage. Let everyone see who spent what and how much."
