For the ninth time, my wife wanted an abortion for her fake-sick first love. This time, I didn't stop her.
Even when Grandpa had a heart attack from anger and furiously called me an unfilial son, I stayed silent.
I had already tricked my wife into signing the divorce papers.
In three days, I would leave for a confidential research project on the border.
During those final three days, I did everything my wife wanted.
She told me to finish a project for her first love, so I voluntarily gave up my promotion.
She wanted to bring him home to rest, so I immediately vacated the master bedroom.
My wife praised me for finally being sensible and promised she would have a child for me once her first love recovered.
But she didn't know there would be no next time.
