the masquerade mistake

"Three years of marriage and you've been guarding an empty bed—frustrated much?" the distinguished man said, languid with satisfaction afterward. A contract made her Mrs. Mu in name for a term of three years. The night before the contract was due to expire, she slept with the aloof and celibate big BOSS! How to deal with this?! The daily interactions between the woman who just wants a divorce and the big BOSS: "Husband, I crashed that brand-new globally limited edition luxury car you just got!" The man looked up from his work, his magnetic voice enveloping her like surround sound, "As long as you're alright." "Husband, I've bankrupted the company you started for me." "Did you have fun doing it?" "Husband, please sign this contract." Mr. Mu almost reflexively signed his name on this divorce agreement. Gazing at the little woman in front of him, a slight smile formed on his lips, "Why? Weren't you satisfied with my performance last night?" "Husband, I'm sorry, I was wrong!" "Good girl~~~"
