[JUNE 2024 CUPID'S QUILL SILVER WINNER]

Although it was only a marriage of convenience, Amelie Ashford was the perfect wife in every aspect. She was intelligent, obedient, and well-respected. She was kind to everyone and devoted to her husband. And she was perfectly content to spend the rest of her life like that, even though she was constantly nagged about getting pregnant. That was until her husband entered their house with a mistress by his side and eventually demanded a divorce.

"Very well," Amelie said calmly, "I will divorce you."

Richard's eyes shone as he heard his wife utter these words. However, to his surprise, she was not done. "But don't be surprised when you get an invitation to my next wedding."

To everyone's shock, Amelie indeed got married again, and to a younger and, as it turned out, richer man!

And she made sure that her ex-husband realized what it meant to lose the support of a woman like her.

Samantha froze as she saw Jason approach, a bright smile on his repulsive face. Before he could say anything, she grabbed him by the arm, dragged him through the gates, and pushed him into the garden, turning off all the switches to ensure they were shrouded in darkness.

'Thank God Richard left before he saw him...'

She quickly looked around to make sure no one was watching. Once she confirmed they were alone, she asked quietly, "What the hell do you think you're doing coming here? Have you lost it completely?"

Jason ignored her outburst and slowly walked around the garden, clicking his tongue.

"Impressive. Very impressive! You really hit the jackpot with this one, Sam."

"Stop this nonsense! Why the hell are you here?"

Jason stood closer to the woman and looked down at her with a hint of dominance in his expression.

"Time is up, Samantha. I need my money now."
