On the Seventh Day of My Father's Detention, I Decided to Divorce

My husband is one of the top lawyers in the industry, with an unbroken winning streak throughout his career. So when my father was detained after being falsely accused, I turned to him for help first. The place where my father was being held was only a ten-minute drive from my husband’s law firm, but he refused without hesitation. “My junior is nervous about taking her first case on her own. I need to stay here and help her write the defense. I can’t leave.” “If he’s guilty, let him plead guilty. If not, wait for the police to investigate. Stop making a fuss over everything.” He lowered his voice. “It’s just a small matter...” Every day after that, he had a different excuse. The one thing that never changed was his junior colleague. On the seventh day, my father was released with all charges dropped. As I drove to pick him up alone, I got a call from Ji Yanming: “My junior’s client just asked to meet her at the last minute. I need to be there to help.” “As for your father’s case, when I get the time, I’ll arrange for an intern to handle it.” I didn’t stay silent this time. I answered softly, “Okay, go ahead. It’s over now anyway.” Whether it was my father’s case or our relationship.
