Chapter44
I never imagined that after finishing my onboarding paperwork, I’d see Antonio. He walked in, dressed in black, wearing a mask, and surrounded by a group of people.
The HR worker noticed my fixed gaze on Antonio and whispered, “He’s a huge client.” I blurted out, “Him?”
The worker nodded. “Looks charming, right? But let me tell you, he’s a monster.”
That was all the worker said before handing me a pen to sign the papers.
Just as I was signing, Antonio’s lawyer suddenly appeared and called out, “New here?” I nodded, and he commanded, “Follow me.”
I wanted to give him more info, but he didn’t let me.
In his office, he handed me a huge stack of documents, saying, “Make two copies of all these.”
I took the stack, clearly marked with Antonio’s name.
While copying, I flipped through the documents. It said that since we got married, he had been constantly transferring our joint assets.
Consequently, by the time we divorced, I got almost nothing.
Even worse, I found a card under Eloise’s name, used to

transfer assets.
This card belonged to Antonio. He funneled the money my parents gave me into it before moving it to his own account.
As I copied the last page, I stumbled upon an even more shocking truth.
It wasn’t that my parents ignored me all these years. They had both run into trouble and given me part of their money. I was unaware the whole time because Antonio instructed his lawyer to handle everything.
I only learned the full story now.
And this time, Antonio was here to steal again.
Despite appearing to adore Eloise, he meticulously plotted against her. After the copying was done, I went back to the office.
I pushed the door open and heard Antonio say, “I just don’t get why these women can’t live without a man. They’re all chasing after me. My ex–wife is quite decent, and her parents left a lot, but Eloise won a big prize with a hefty cash award, so I think I should marry her quickly.”
He was wearing the ring Eloise had shown off on social media a few days ago, but his expression was full of disdain.
I recorded everything he said about Eloise before walking away.
As I left, his voice echoed behind me, “Honestly, my ex–wife is really dumb, staying with me all those years and leaving with nothing. I even took all the money her parents left.”

He laughed loudly.
I felt a mix of disgust and relief. It almost cost my life to see his true colors.
Just then, I got the most crucial piece of information. It came along with Eloise’s message, “Grace, you must come!”
I replied “Yes” and left.
