He Slapped My Mother, So I Bankrupted Him

After five years of marriage, brilliant jewelry designer Emily stepped back for love, granting husband Reno free use of her top patents and making him a billionaire CEO. Instead of gratitude, Reno saw her as a parasite. At a five-star family gathering, when Emily’s ill mother coughed and failed to toast in time, Reno slapped her six times to assert control over Emily. Emily’s pent-up frustration erupted. She moved out that night and, as patent holder, revoked all licenses to Reno’s company. While Reno waited for her apology, he instead faced massive damages claims from three partners, bankruptcy liquidation, and a divorce petition. The Reno family lost everything and ended up behind bars. Emily, with her mother, began living her own brilliant life.
