Chapter 11

Due to overwhelming evidence, Nolan and Evelina were both sentenced, and Nolan's embezzlement was also uncovered.

I submitted the evidence of Nolan's marital infidelity provided by Evelina, along with proof of Nolan's plan to murder his wife for insurance money, to the court to petition for divorce.

Ultimately, the court granted my divorce from Nolan. Since Nolan's embezzlement was to repay gambling debts, these debts were ultimately deemed unrelated to me.

I then gave all my savings to Nolan to plug the financial hole.

"Fortunately," there was still a week left before the lottery ticket expired, so I took my long-hidden ticket and, wearing a mask, went to claim the prize.

Later, I visited Nolan in prison once.

Nolan looked haggard, his beard unshaven, and his face blank. His exposed arms were covered in bruises - clearly, he'd been "well taken care of" inside.

I deliberately showed him our divorce papers and asked if he'd dreamed of his mother coming to find him at night.
