Hi.
In this case you need to contest the matter.
It is clear that your wife is willing to divorce and just backed off after taking money.
Court will consider this facts and grant relief accordingly.

Do u have receipt of the amount given to her ? Since it is done by wife you may get divorce if u can prove that you had paid the agreed consideration amount to wife. Also wife had received it. Thanks u.
