My Wife's 'Milk Tea' Secret Divorce at the Baby ShowerChapter 1 The Divorce Decree

Claire returned to work before her maternity leave had barely begun. In a standard thirty-day month, she worked overtime for twenty-nine of them. She left before dawn and returned long after midnight, too "busy" to spare a single glance at our daughter, who screamed until her throat was raw, begging to be fed.

I had reached my limit.

The breaking point wasn't a catastrophe, but a receipt—milk tea she'd bought for her colleagues. That was when I demanded a divorce.

The declaration hit the room like a bomb.

"Are you out of your mind?" someone shouted. "You're divorcing her over milk tea?"

Claire's face twisted with rage. She snatched a glass baby bottle from the table and hurled it at me. It struck my forehead with a sickening crack. Warm liquid trickled down my brow, blinding one eye in a crimson haze.

I didn't flinch. Ignoring the sting and the blood dripping onto my collar, I slammed the printed divorce agreement onto the table.

"Sign it."
