Chapter 6 

Surprisingly, Peter was calm. He patiently waited for me to finish my breakfast before speaking.

“Casey, may I ask you a question?” 

His 

eyes were bloodshot, clearly showing he hadn’t slept all night. 

I nodded slightly. He swallowed hard. “Eighteen years… you’ve known all along. Why did you still make me the general manager of the Morgan Group?” 

I took a sip of my coffee, shrugging nonchalantly. “Because you’re actually capable of doing the job.” 

“As for why I didn’t expose it from the start… well, first of all, it’s because you were cheap.” 

Peter had only asked for a salary of one dollar a month when he first joined, just to gain my trust. What did he say back then? 

“Wife, I just want to work for you. This one dollar isn’t just a salary–it represents my wholehearted love for you.” 

At the time, I was so touched, thinking that once the baby was born, I’d transfer some of the shares to him. 

But little did I know, Peter had been deceiving me from the very beginning. The one–dollar salary was just a ploy to fool me. 

I decided to turn the tables and use him as a free tool. Why not take advantage of it? 

Professional managers in the market earned a minimum of two million a year. The money Peter saved me is just interest on the debt he owes me. 

As for the principal, I’d certainly get that back without hesitation! 

His face turned pale, obviously not expecting such a blunt reason. “A few million a year is nothing to you. I don’t believe that’s the only reason.” 

I raised an eyebrow. After twenty years of marriage, he should know me well enough by now. 

“Well, the second reason…” I paused for a moment. 

Peter instantly looked up at me, his eyes full of expectation. 

He Regretted It. After Realizing My Fortun

casually said, “It’s because I find it quite amusing watching you and Tiffany Sophia putting on a show in front of me every day.” 

Peter clenched his fists, as if insulted. His face turned red, and then, with a glimmer of hope, he asked, “I don’t believe it! After all these years, don’t you have any feelings for me?” 

“If you didn’t love me, why would you have had a child with have agreed to

He suddenly stepped forward to grab my hand, but I disdainfully pulled away. 

“Peter, get this straight. I had a child for myself, not for you.” 

“As long as the child is mine, I don’t care who the father is, understand?” 

Having said that, I couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on him. I waved my hand, signaling for him to leave. 

At that moment, a shrill female voice came from the door. 

“Peter, how dare you come behind my back to see this wretch!” 

“She ruined us, and now you want to come back and beg her? Get out of here!” 

Peter urgently tried to explain, “Casey, let me explain! I was misled by Tiffany. I never loved her.” 

. “After yesterday’s fiasco, I realized that you, from the beginning to the end, are my true love!” 

“Casey, Patrick is not my child, but it’s fine. I can forgive you. I’ll treat Patrick as my own child. Let’s remarry, okay?” 

I looked at his shamelessness in disbelief and paused. “If you’re sick, go to the hospital.” 

The butler quickly had people drag Peter out. He stubbornly shouted, “Casey, I know you still love me. I’ll wait for you forever.” 

Peter was thrown out of the gate, where he immediately started arguing and even fighting with Tiffany, who had been waiting outside. 

Peter’s face was scratched by Tiffany, while Tiffany’s ribs were broken when Peter kicked her. 

I kindly called the police for them, and after three days in detention, they were released. 

After leaving the police station, the two returned to the company, only to find that the facial

recognition system at the entrance didn’t recognize them. 

The door security system is broken, and no one bothers to fix it? What kind of management is this?” 

Peter grabbed the nearest security guard and started scolding him, but the guard simply snorted and ignored him.
