My Wife Sent Me to a Psych Ward, So I Gave Her a Big Surprise Chapter 10

I stopped walking.

I didn’t even turn around.

“Kill you?”

“I wouldn’t dirty my hands on someone like you.”

“I want you alive.”

“I want you to spend the rest of your life fully aware behind bars.”

When she saw I wasn’t going to forgive her, Wren lost all hope.

She started desperately contacting our former classmates from Grayhaven University.

She even reached out to our old mentor.

The next day, our mentor personally called me.

“Sylvan, I already know what happened with Wren. What she did was wrong.”

“But her law firm is gone now. Her license has been revoked. She’s barely holding herself together.”

“Can’t you just let her off? She’s still your wife.”

“Go to the police station and drop the charges.”

“Give her a way out. Sylvan, you’re a man.”

“You need to learn when to let things go.”

I listened as someone I once respected said those words.

I let out a cold laugh.

“When my father died in that courtroom, who told her to let me go?”

“When they locked me up and forced electric shock treatment on me, who gave me a way out?”

My mentor’s tone immediately turned harsh.

“Sylvan!”

“Why are you taking this so far? What do you get out of this?”

I hung up.

Then I blocked his number.

I also left every Grayhaven University group chat.

Anyone who came to defend Wren…

I blocked them all. I didn’t want her apology.

I wanted her to pay for every bit of blood on her hands.

Three months later, the trial at Grayhaven Superior Court officially began.

With Nerida Sterling’s team’s full support, my father’s case was reinvestigated.

The truth finally came out.

The business rivals who had framed my father were all exposed and taken down.

The judge declared my father acquitted.

Holding the acquittal verdict in my hands, I stood outside Grayhaven Superior Court.

I lifted my head.

Tears fell onto the paper.

Dad… Did you see that? I finally cleared your name.

Then came the criminal trial against Wren and the others.

The evidence was undeniable, the money involved was enormous, and the public fallout was severe. The

prosecutors showed them no mercy.

Wren was sentenced to fifteen years in prison and had all her personal assets confiscated.

Auden was sentenced to twelve years in prison.

Marcus was sentenced to eight years for bribery and judicial misconduct.

On the day the verdict was announced, the gallery was packed.

Wren stood at the defendant’s bench wearing a prison uniform and handcuffs.

Her hair had been cut extremely short.

She had become painfully thin. Her eyes were empty.

The moment the judge struck the gavel…

She turned her head and stared directly at me in the gallery.

Her lips moved slightly. It looked like she was silently saying,

“Sorry.”

I looked at her without any expression.

The court officer stepped forward to escort her away.

Suddenly, Wren started struggling wildly.

Her legs gave out. She collapsed onto her knees.

“Sylvan! I’m sorry! I was wrong!”

“Please wait for me.”

“When I get out, I’ll change. I swear. Please…”

“I’m begging you!”

She broke down completely.

The court officer dragged her out of the courtroom.

Her desperate cries echoed through the hallway until the heavy metal doors slammed shut.

At that moment…

The last thing holding me together finally broke.

When I walked out of Grayhaven Superior Court…

Nerida Sterling’s black Maybach was waiting by the roadside.

She lowered the window and handed me a gold–embossed employment offer letter.

“Head of Legal, Sterling Holdings.”

“Interested?”

1 took the offer letter.

I looked at the name on it.

My name.

“Miss Sterling…”

“Are you sure you want someone like me in your company?”

“What if I end up turning your company upside down too?”

Nerida Sterling smiled.

“I’m more worried you won’t be ruthless enough.”

I opened the car door and got inside.

Sylvan’s real life was only just beginning.
