Husband 7

Chapter 7 

Two years later, I had successfully

returned to my position from before my marriage to Wyatt. 

Though no longer as young as I once was, my future remained bright. 

Many leaders in the military were enthusiastically introducing me to potential partners. 

I didn’t refuse–after all, I didn’t want to keep dwelling on the past. 

Returning from a date with Kaleb Geller, a man in his early thirties, I spotted a 

familiar figure.

When Wyatt saw me, his eyes lit up with excitement. “Rylee, I’m back!” 

He looked much more weathered. 

Prison life was never easy, especially given the nature of his crime–many people had targeted him both openly and behind the scenes. 

Having experienced it myself, I knew he must have suffered greatly. 

But I felt no sympathy for him whatsoever. 

Seeing him approach, I instinctively stepped back, creating distance between

A flash of hurt crossed Wyatt’s face, but he forced a casual tone: “We haven’t seen each other in two years, why are you being so distant? I went through a lot of trouble to find you. I didn’t expect you’d already been reinstated. You’re still that exceptional Rylee.” 

His intimate tone made me feel sick. 

aid, “Wyatt, we don’t have anything to atch up on, do we? What exactly do you want from me?” 

My cold attitude stung him like a needle.

slightly: “I… I just wanted to ask if we can never go back to how things were?” 

I thought he already knew the answer deep down. 

But I still curved my lips into a smile, responding with the same contemptuous expression he once wore: “What do you think? Why would I go back, Wyatt? 

You’re a convicted felon now–are we still 

the same?” 

Wyatt’s face instantly turned pale, as if struck by a heavy blow. 

He said quietly, “But you used to love me so much… I know I was wrong, Rylee. Grace and I weren’t what you thought—

can’t you give me another chance?”

This time, I remained silent. Instead, Kaleb, standing beside me, spoke up: “If you and Grace weren’t involved like that, you still framed Rylee as a spy. If you two actually had something going on, wouldn’t you have destroyed Rylee completely? Besides, at your age, don’t you understand basic boundaries? Since you made your choice back then and things didn’t work out, you should accept the consequences. What makes you think anyone would forgive you?” 

Wyatt’s face flushed red from the 

scolding: “Who are you to meddle? Rylee is my wife!”

“Not anymore!” I cut him off sharply, enunciating each word clearly: “When you went to prison, I already filed for divorce. Don’t you remember? Let me introduce you–this is Kaleb Geller, someone I’m seeing. I have a very good impression of him, and if all goes well, he’ll be my husband. Wyatt, you’re the outsider

come. 

Now, his happy family was gone, and his bright future was gone too.

With a criminal record, he’d been 

discharged from the military, and no respectable job would hire him. 

I heard later that someone spotted him at the docks helping unload cargo -barely past thirty, but looking like a fifty–year–old man. 

When Grace finally finished serving her sentence and was released from prison, having no parents or place to live, she naturally thought of Wyatt. 

She trembled as she returned to the 

Courtland house, only to be thrown out. 

Hayley, who had once praised her

endlessly, now looked at her like she was 

a curse. 

She said with disgust, “If it weren’t for you, my son wouldn’t have gone to prison! You’re nothing but a slut and a jinx! Get lost!” 

Grace was pushed to the ground by her, so angry she coughed up blood, but still wouldn’t give up. 

When Wyatt came home from his shift at the docks, she reached out to stop him: “Wyatt, do you remember me?” 

Wyatt looked up blankly, his eyes reddening the moment he saw her.

Grace thought he felt sorry for her and 

tried to throw herself into his arms. 

The next second, she froze in place, staring in disbelief at her chest.

Wyatt slowly withdrew the knife from his hand, closed his eyes, and said, “You wronged me, Grace.” 

Hearing this, Grace laughed bitterly: “Wyatt, how can you be so shameless? Did I beg you to help me frame Rylee back then? You were the one who actively 

wanted to harm her! You’re the most despicable person of all!” 

She never imagined she would die at Wyatt’s hands.

Wyatt was imprisoned again for intentional murder.

This time, he never made it out of prison alive. 

As for me, I rewrote my destiny, found 

a husband a hundred times better than Wyatt, and continued advancing in my career, becoming one of the top figures in the military. 

My superior would tell everyone how she had recognized my talent from day one. 

When news of Wyatt’s death in prison reached me, I was preparing for retirement, planning to travel the world

Upon hearing the news, I simply smiled faintly: “Everything from the past is now behind us.”
