My Husband’s Wedding Speech Left Everyone Stunned, Then My Dad Spoke Up
“Matter of fact, I was supposed to be set up with a beautiful heiress. Instead, I’ve been putting up with a mediocre girl like you all this time. You should be grateful!”
He said.
Enraged, Jack knocked a flower from the table, scattering white petals everywhere.
“Jack, please don’t talk anymore!”
Jack’s father said.
Jack’s father was pale as a ghost, trembling like he was seconds away from fainting.
But that’s all understandable.
His son wouldn’t stop making remarks that would infuriate the last person he’d want to cross.
“Shut up! It’s all your fault, Dad!”
Jack said.
Just as a father-son argument was about to break out, my father’s voice echoed once again.
“That’s enough.”
For a moment, the room fell silent.
“Sarah, what are you going to do? Do you still want to marry this kind of man?”
My father gently asked me.
But I quietly shook my head.
“I can’t be happy marrying this sort of man. A man who would treat me as a maid trying to have me live on fifty dollars for food every month.”
I said.
I just couldn’t bear the thought of being with him.
“This is economic abuse, isn’t it? Jack, I will sue you. I’m also going to annul our marriage, so be prepared for that.”
I said.
“What? Are you okay with being a divorcee?”
He asked.
“Well, you’re going to be a divorcee, too, so we might as well share the pain. I won’t hold back anymore.”
I said.
Since I realized he had no love for me, I had completely lost feelings for him.
I’d rather be a divorcee than be exploited under such ridiculous conditions.
When I firmly stated my decision, my father also nodded in agreement.
“That’s probably for the best. As for your company, we will take appropriate measures. I wonder what will happen to your company from now on.”
He said.
When my father said this with a terrifying look on his face, it seemed Jack finally realized the gravity of the situation.
He fell on his knees, begging for mercy with his father.
“Our foolish son has been terribly rude. We promise to educate him well to avoid any future incidents. Please, just don’t cancel the marriage!”
His father said.
“Sarah was wrong! Please forgive me! I’ll let you do as you like with housework, childcare, and work. I won’t limit your food expenses anymore! You can even hire a maid and relax at home if you want!”
Jack said.
“We can hear all about your grievances in court. Dad, let’s go home.”
I said.
I apologized to all the guests and returned all their gift money.
Then, I canceled the wedding.
Afterwards, thanks to the skilled lawyer hired by my father, we managed to sue Jack in court.
The cause of our broken engagement was determined to be Jack’s fault, and he was forced to bear the full cost of our wedding fees, plus I also received compensation.
Moreover, because he failed poorly at securing a convenience marriage and humiliated his father by having him beg on his knees, he got abandoned by his parents as well.
There is no way he will ever sit in the CEO chair again.
Jack, out of desperation, caused a ruckus at work and got in trouble with the police.
From what I’ve heard, he got fired in the end.
He’s become worthless, aimlessly living life with no solid job.
Of course, there’s no chance for him to ever get set up with an heiress anymore.
As a result of deceiving me and getting abandoned, his life became miserable.
As for me, I ended up being a divorcee, but my father introduced me to a sincere young employee working at his company.
I’m currently dating him, and we’re planning on getting married next year.
