The Turmoil After My Wife's First Love Returned Chapter 1

On the day of our wedding, Shirley took a French leave and ran into the arms of her first love.

My mother was so angry that she had a heart attack. When she was sent to the hospital, there was nothing the doctors could do.

That night, Shirley's first love, Jenkins, posted a photo of them hugging and kissing passionately.

She was wearing the expensive dress that my mother had bought for her. She lay in Jenkins' arms, gentle and sweet, without hiding.

Although it was just a side profile, I still recognized her at a glance.

I sat by my mother's body, wiped away my tears, and left a cold comment: [Scumbags, you're a perfect match!]

——

I declined everyone's concern, cremated my mother's body alone, and locked myself in my bedroom for five days.

During this period, Shirley did not send me any messages or call me.

On the contrary, her first love, Jenkins was quite active on social media.

Under that post, countless people left comments.

The first was to mock me.

[Look, the simp is so envious.]

[It's useless to be jealous. He can't make her to stay with him.]

[You two are a match made in heaven. You shouldn't have gone abroad at that time.]

Shirley did not make any comments or say a word for me.

Before I finished reading the comments, I blocked both of them.

I pursued Shirley and took care of her for five years.

However, on our wedding day, she did not hesitate to leave me behind for Jenkins. She made me a joke, and even my mother died due to that.

When she was alive, her biggest wish was to see me get married, have children, and start a family.

For this reason, she spent all the money she had saved in her whole life..

Even so, Shirley was still not satisfied and insisted on holding a fancy wedding.

My mother said that it was too extravagant, and it would be better to save it for the future.

But Shirley didn't agree. She even threatened my mother that if she couldn't afford it, she would reconsider about the marriage.

My mother made up her mind and took out the money, which she didn't even want to spend on her treatment without telling me.

But in the end, she was angered to death.

I was a useless son. I didn't even have a chance to show filial piety.

I took out all the remaining money and planned to buy a decent piece of jewelry for my mother. She had worked hard all her life, so I couldn't let her leave like that.

As soon as I entered the jewelry store, I happened to meet Shirley.

She held Jenkins' arm so naturally.

At this moment, she was wearing a casual dress.

She had lost the customized dress somewhere, which had cost my mother a lot of money.

Of course, she didn't care.

After all, my mother and I gave her almost everything she wanted and thought too highly of her.

Jenkins stroked her head and said, "Shirley, pick whatever you like. I've been abroad for five years, but I couldn't give you a decent gift before I left. I'm really sorry."

Shirley said coquettishly, "Then thank you in advance."

Looking at her current expression, I suddenly felt sad.

My mother and I have worked so hard, but we couldn't compare with the news of Jenkins' return.

Shirley raised her head and saw me.

Subconsciously, she wanted to withdraw her hand from Jenkins' arm, but she couldn't.

Jenkins looked at me with a faint smile, full of provocation.

I glanced at them coldly and lowered my head to choose jewelry for my mother.

Being ignored by me, Shirley frowned and questioned,

"Arden, why are you ignoring me? Who are you putting on a face for?"

I didn't look up, "What do you think?"

"What did you say? How dare you talk to me like that!

Are you jealous again?"

"You think too much," I replied coldly. "I can't wait to wish you happiness."

"You still deny it. Look at your expression now, as if I owe you a lot of money!

I told you a long time ago. Jenkins and I are just friends now. He has just returned from abroad, and not been used to the environment here. Of course, I have to spend more time with him. Do you really have to be so fussy?

Before I left, I asked the person in charge of the restaurant to tell you that. Didn't he tell you?

Besides, after thinking about it again, I don't like the wedding style very much. Let's hold another wedding ceremony, when we have time. I know your mother can't afford it. I'll pay for it myself. Just take it as my apology for leaving without saying anything."

In the past, I might have listened to her explanation carefully. I was always easy to be convinced.

But at this point, I felt that what she said was ridiculous.

Didn't she see Jenkins' post?

"No need," I indifferently replied. "No more wedding."

Shirley was confused, "Why not? Are you still angry with me?

Can you not be so petty? I've had enough of it."

"Since you've had it enough, let's break up!" I said flat.
