The question is ambiguous, but what is understood from it is that the questioner divorced his wife with three pronouncements of divorce.
If the divorce was immediate or suspended and the condition for its occurrence was met, then the woman is irrevocably separated from him and is not lawful for him until she marries another husband. The intention of threat is not considered.
Some scholars are of the opinion that if the intention behind suspending a divorce was to threaten, then it does not constitute a divorce but rather an oath.
The questioner is advised to refer to the court or a in his country to explain his situation.
