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!

"So, Ms. Sterling, are you planning to use your influence to intimidate me?" Scarlett took an elegant sip of her wine, trying to mask her insecurity.

"That's still better than Ms. King throwing baseless accusations."

Being backed by the Ford family, Ava enjoyed its benefits but also had to uphold its dignity. Otherwise, people might think the Ford family was an easy target.

Seeing her initial tactic fail, Scarlett switched her approach.

"Ha, only you know the truth of the matter. But what's more intriguing is the story about your family, Ms. Sterling. I heard from your sister that when the Sterling family was on the brink of bankruptcy, she begged you for help. Not only did you refuse, but you also had her scolded. Ms. Sterling, one should have a grateful heart. Otherwise, what's the difference between a person and an animal?"
