Grey Watson walked into the office building of Mul-tax Corp, holding a brown purse. He had woken up that morning to find it lying on their bed. Sonia had forgotten it while rushing off to work.As a good husband, Grey decided to take it to her office. He had no idea that this one act of kindness would change everything about his marriage.Grey had been married to Sonia Nicole for three years. Though life was difficult, he tried his best to please her. He worked hard, stayed loyal, and did all he could to make her happy. That morning, he even planned a surprise for their anniversary later that evening.He entered the front lobby and told the receptionist he had something urgent for his wife. The receptionist looked him up and down like he didn’t belong there, but after seeing her name on the purse and checking something on her computer, she waved him to go ahead.“She’s on the 9th floor, the last office on the right,” she said without a smile.Grey entered the elevator and soon stepped

Grey sat quietly in the back seat of the black G-Wagon as it moved steadily through the city traffic. The driver said nothing, only glancing at Grey through the mirror every now and then. The atmosphere inside the car was calm, but Grey’s heart burned with rage.He kept replaying the image of Sonia and her boss kissing in his mind. He gritted his teeth. All these months, he had endured everything, just to complete the final test from his grandfather. He had stayed low, lived as a poor man, and married into Sonia’s rich but arrogant family without revealing his real identity.They had mocked him, insulted him, and treated him like trash. And Sonia, the one person who was supposed to be on his side, had betrayed him the worst. Now that the test was over, it was time to take back his dignity.The car stopped in front of a luxury building that looked like a kingdom among the rest. The guards at the gate moved aside immediately as the vehicle approached.Grey stepped out and looked at the

Grey pointed at Mr. Bobby who had just entered the room and walked confidently to stand beside Sonia. His eyes narrowed as anger surged in his chest. He could barely hold himself back.“That’s him,” Grey said, his voice cold and clear. “That’s the man Sonia was cheating on me with in her office.”Everyone’s head turned sharply, and even Grandma’s eyes widened.Mr Bobby glanced sideways at Sonia, clearly shocked.The whole room fell quiet. People looked at the pair, mouths open in surprise. Some guests exchanged looks, others whispered to each other.Sonia’s cousin couldn’t help the little smirk curling on her lips.Grandma cleared her throat. “Sonia,” she said slowly. “Is this true?”Sonia quickly shook her head, trembling as she spoke. “No, Grandma! He’s lying! He wants to disgrace me. He’s just trying to ruin me after cheating on me himself.”Mr Bobby looked at Sonia, then stepped forward and raised his hands slightly. “Wait, what’s going on here? Sonia, what are they talking about?

Mr. Bobby was still on the ground, his face swollen and red from the one hundred slaps he gave himself. He looked miserable and weak, just sitting there with no strength to get up.Grey stood a few feet away, calm and without emotion, as if nothing had happened.Slowly, Bobby looked up at him with tired eyes. He tried to speak, but his lips were swollen. After a few tries, he managed to get the words out.“Grey… please… forgive me… I didn’t know…” His voice was low and shaking.He struggled to get on his knees again, then bent forward and bowed deeply toward Grey. “Please… I don’t know what I did to offend you, but I beg you now. Help me get my job back. Please…”Gasps came from some family members. They were shocked.Was Mr. Bobby now begging Grey?Wasn’t he the same proud CEO just minutes ago?Grandma’s face changed and her proud smile slowly faded. She turned her eyes to Grey and stared at him.Sonia looked between them feeling confused and uneasy.Bobby kept begging. “If you can h

After the meeting party was over, the guests all left one by one, leaving the hall empty. The lights were turned off but the Nicole family stayed behind. They sat around the long table in silence.The shame from what had happened was heavy on their shoulders. No one wanted to speak. Even the air felt tense and stiff.Grandma sat at the head of the table with her arms crossed tightly and her face looked tired and wrinkled.Sonia sat quietly beside her mother, her hands in her lap. She hadn’t said a word since Grey left the building.The family’s biggest secret was now out. They had forged documents, stolen land, delayed payments, and tricked their business partners.And now, the punishment has come. They were facing court charges, their accounts were frozen, and their biggest real estate project had been seized.“This is all because of that bastard Grey,” one of the uncles said, breaking the silence.“He must have planned this. There’s no way everything fell apart today by coincidence,
