My Wife Got Engaged to Someone Else at My Birthday Party

Today was my birthday. My wife, Stella, held a grand birthday party for me. As the richest woman in Yorkshire, she held a birthday party for me with many dignitaries. With such a wife, I became the most enviable man in Yorkshire.

Even though many people talked about me as a gigolo behind my back, no matter who saw me, they would give me some face. I never thought that today would be the beginning of a nightmare.

——

The birthday party was about to begin. My wife, Stella, went on stage to speak. After a polite greeting, she said, "Today I want to announce a big thing."

"Please invite Oliver Swift to the stage." My wife invited me formally. I was Oliver.

I stood up and went on stage in the envious eyes of everyone. What surprise was she going to give me today?

I knew that she had been going home less and less during this period of time. She was preparing a big move to give me a big surprise, which was an affirmation of my silent efforts behind the scenes.

I stood on the stage and waved to the surroundings, which attracted warm applause. Then I pressed my palm and the applause stopped. I turned to face my wife and looked forward to her surprise.

My wife's assistant and her sister also came to the stage at this time, holding a document in her hand.

"Oliver, please sign the divorce agreement and give me my freedom."

My wife spoke and her sister handed me the document. The big words "divorce agreement" on it hurt my eyes.

The whole audience was silent and I was stunned on the spot. She asked me to sign the divorce agreement in such a lively occasion.

I was really confused, why?

Even if we really want to divorce, why must we choose such an occasion? I asked myself that I took good care of her and gave in to her in everything.

Why did she want a divorce?

"Why?" I asked unwillingly.

"Why? You dare to ask?" My wife's sister rolled her eyes at me coldly, "Ask yourself what you are? My sister works hard every day, but you are happy at home all day. What help have you given to the development of the company?"

"Do you think a waste like you is worthy of my sister?"

"Do you really think I am not worthy of you?" I stared at Stella.

I just wanted her answer, so I asked her again, "Answer me, Stella. Don't let the dog next to you bark."

Stella stretched out her hand and slapped me in the face, "You are not allowed to insult my sister and I will seriously answer your question just now."

"You are not worthy even an inch of me." Stella's warm mouth said the coldest words in the world.

My mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to me and I care about birthdays more than anyone else. I would be better to myself on my birthday, just to tell my mother's spirit in heaven that her child was doing well.

But today Stella specially held a birthday party for me just to let me sign the divorce agreement. My heart hurts a lot, I didn’t understand why this woman did this.

Why would two people who shared the same bed stab each other in the back? What did I do wrong?

In the three years since we got married, I had taken on the responsibility of taking care of the family, allowing her to focus on her career. When she encountered problems, I helped her with advice and wrote plans, allowing her to have everything she has now.

I didn’t understand and it was even harder to accept.

"Stella, this joke is not funny. Today is my birthday, not April Fools' Day." I tried to control my tone.

"I'm not kidding you. I'm serious. Sign the divorce agreement and let's go our separate ways and live happily ever after." Stella just said lightly.

How could I live happily ever after?

How could I live happily ever after when you do this on my birthday?

If you really couldn’t live with me anymore and didn’t like me anymore, couldn’t you just say it in private?
