In a marriage of convenience, Nathan, after a night of drinking, has an affair with Ava, leading to her ectopic pregnancy. 

Before the surgery, Ava calls Nathan, who is preoccupied with his mistress and neglects Ava, even going as far as to accuse her of having an affair and carrying another man's child after the surgery...

As their one-year contractual marriage comes to an end, Nathan realizes his feelings for Ava. 

But Ava is not willing to play along anymore!

Excerpt：

"I am Nathan Ford's girlfriend, loved by him, as everyone knows. And you... you're just a title holder, soon to be thrown out. By then, you'll lose all your dignity... no, you've already lost it. I bet your deceased mother would turn in her grave if she knew what you've become."

Hearing Iris Hart's sharp and biting words, Ava Sterling initially didn't want to stoop to her level. 

However, the mention of her late mother crossed a line.

A crisp slap echoed before Iris Hart could even react, leaving five bright red marks on her face.

"Ah—Ava Sterling—you lowlife, how dare you hit me..." Iris Hart realized she had been slapped and reached out to retaliate, but Ava Sterling was prepared and caught her hand easily.

"Listen, Iris Hart, if I'm the joke, what does that make you? You're also a joke. At least I'm Nathan Ford's wife by law! You! Iris Hart, are nothing but a mistress scorned by everyone. Every wealthy man may stray, but a hotel is just a hotel, and home is home. There can be many dishes, but there's only one bowl of rice."

Ex-husband seeks remarriage？I'm not cooperating!

Just the thought of Nathan addressing her directly made Ava's skin crawl with discomfort.

"Caring?" Ethan chuckled softly as he poured another cup of tea for Ava. His gaze towards Nathan was icy, his tone gentle yet undeniably forceful.

"People might fear the CEO of Ford Group, but I don't. I might say things that upset you, but they need to be said. Ava is my sister, the pampered princess of our family, raised to have a better life than this. She ended up marrying you due to unforeseen circumstances, and I've always regretted not stopping it. I'm well aware of your exploits and even investigated the Serenity Tea Haven project Ava was handling. Plagiarizing Ava's works and taking advantage of Ava's reputation, haha..."

A rare sneer crossed Ethan's usually gentle face as he stared coldly at Nathan.
