I Challenged My Ex-Billionaire Husband to a Duel

Married for two years, Willow was treated like dirt by Benjamin, who cherished his mistress like treasure. He was cruel and uncaring toward her; their marriage was only a prison. Willow put up with everything because she loved him deeply. Until that rainy night, when she lost her baby and crawled out in agony, calling for an ambulance, he left her pregnant to travel abroad with his mistress. She finally understood: she would never win his love. She penned a divorce agreement and left quietly. Two years later, Willow returned, surrounded by a sea of admirers. Her ex-husband cornered her, insisting, “My dear wife, I haven’t signed the divorce decree yet! You can’t escape from me!” She smiled coldly, “Sir, we are done.” His voice trembled as he recited their wedding vows. “Didn’t you promise to love me in good times and bad, in sickness and health? Don’t you remember?” Meeting his desperate gaze, she replied, “I no longer care. My life is for me to live, not yours to ruin.” He laughed darkly, stepping closer. “You changed your name and dyed your hair pink, fooling everyone but me.” Pulling her into a suffocating embrace, he hissed, “You either come back to me or I reveal to the world who you are: a divorced widow with a dead child.” Willow had built her career in France and gained stardom in the United States, but now the devil from her past threatened to destroy everything. She pushed him away, her heart racing. “The Nebula fashion contest. I compete with you. If I win, you leave me alone. If you win, I return to you.” A sinister smile spread across his lips, “It’s a deal.”

Chapter 16

The final month before our graduation arrived quickly and I still have up to four unfinished paintings for my "Eclipse of the Heart" art collection. 

My college diploma depends on it and I am still not yet done painting my art collection, all the rest of my three friends have finished theirs and are currently working on their theory thesis. I am the only one stuck in the painting stage.

At the beginning of the last month I would spend in college, I made up my mind that I would give myself only three days to work on my remaining art paintings and also, I would give myself one week to write 30,000 words thesis paper about why all Vincent van Gogh's art paintings should be considered world heritage and be given UNESCO protection.

Starting with a Sunday morning, I worked up as early as six o'clock in the morning and immediately cleared my morning routine.
