It was Nathan’s Grandma who saved me.
“I never thought Nathan would actually go this far!”
She made me sign the termination papers, then ordered her bodyguards to escort me to the airport. The moment I collapsed into the car seat, I passed out from exhaustion.
Meanwhile, at the auction, the atmosphere was electric:
“For our final lot–‘Maiden’s Secret Dream‘–bidding has reached $60,000. Do I hear higher?”
“Someone’s bidding through the roof!”
The crowd gasped.
Every head–including Nathan’s–swiveled toward the auctioneer’s gesture.
When their eyes met, Nathan frowned.
“Grand…Grandma? What are you doing here?”
Before Nathan could finish speaking, the entire venue erupted. No one could believe his grandma would appear at such an event–let alone personally intervene to stop this farce.
“This auction is over.” Her voice wasn’t loud, but it carried an unshakable authority.
The auctioneer glanced between Nathan and his grandma, then finally gave a slight bow.
“Since Madam Carter has spoken, tonight’s final lot is withdrawn.”
The crowd immediately broke into a mix of boos and murmurs.
Nathan’s face turned ashen, but he didn’t dare defy his grandma. He followed her out of the auction hall in silence and went to
a private room.
SMACK!
Nathan’s Grandma slapped the documents across his face.
“Since you don’t want Stella as your wife, consider this the end of your relationship!”
Nathan clutched his stinging cheek, bolting upright from his chair.
His grandma trembled with rage, snorting coldly:
“If I hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have known you’d auctioned off your wife’s virginity. How disgraceful!”
“W–we were just messing around! Stella seemed bored lately–I thought this would spice things up.”

He hung his head, scrambling for excuses.
“Jesus, Grandma–what did you hit me with? A brick? It hurts!”
As he bent to pick up the fallen document, his casual smile vanished instantly.
[MARRIAGE DISSOLUTION AGREEMENT]
The bold text hit him like a gut punch.
“What…what is this? ‘Dissolution‘? What does that mean?”
