There is no objection to this قسم (oath/division) if you took the money with the wife's consent, and your liability is cleared, and she has no right to demand it back if she gave it as a donation and of her own free will. However, if the wife gave it out of fear of your anger, then she has the right to demand it back according to some scholars, and the more cautious approach is to return it to her.
