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!

Diana's voice grew shriller with emotion, deepening Evelyn's dissatisfaction. Evelyn sternly scolded her, seemingly determined to defend Ava to the end.

"Diana, what are you saying? Once Ava married into the Ford family, she became one of us. What outsider? Spreading such talk would only bring us ridicule!

Moreover, Ava is pregnant now. Your words could hurt the child's feelings. As a mother, you should act like one!

The Ford family is a prominent lineage, and many are eager to see us falter. I do not want to hear such remarks from you again. Understand?"

Evelyn's reprimand left Diana speechless, her respect for Evelyn making her words particularly impactful. Moreover, Diana was shocked to learn of Ava's pregnancy—was the grandchild she had longed for finally on the way?

Diana quickly moved to sit beside Ava, her gaze intense. "Ava, are you really pregnant?"
