Valery pushed my hand away and said, 'What's the use of living happily with me? Misfortune befalls a poor couple. I just want to live a simple life with a house and a car. Am I wrong?
"Besides, if you love me, you should give up treatment instead of dragging me down, leaving me all your money and property to make me happy. Have you forgotten your wedding vows to make me happy for the rest of my life?"
I finally understood that Valery didn't even care about my life or death. I sneered, "What if I have to sell the house and take out a loan?"
Valery replied without hesitation, "Then let's get a divorce. You give me some money and I'll leave."
Noticing I kept silent, Valery thought that I was unwilling to get a divorce and just wanted to drag her down. She added, "Don't expect me to give you any money. Let me tell you, I don't have a penny."
I pause for a moment and can't help but ask, "How could it be? What about your salary?"
Valery acts as if she had expected it. "So you're really after my money. To be honest, I helped my younger brother pay off his mortgage with all my savings."
