Before they got married, Laurent already knew that Dave Washington had another woman in his heart, yet she still chose to marry him because Dave had always been the one she loved. She loved Dave, but his heart belonged to another woman. It was said that this woman loved another man, who happened to be Dave's illegitimate half-brother. Laurent believed that having a child would secure their shaky marriage.
Until one day, the woman Dave loved finally told him, "Actually, the person I love is you."
Laurent had devoted her youth and energy to this sensational and messy love story, only to helplessly watch it collapse. Heartbroken, she chose to divorce.
She thought Dave's infidelity would make her easily give up on the house, car, and property during the divorce, with the only request being custody of their daughter. But to her surprise, Dave insisted that she was unfit to raise their daughter and refused to give her custody.
In order to fight for her daughter, she embarked on a long and exhausting legal battle.
She said to him, "You're so persistent—aren't you worried your lover is waiting for you anxiously?"
Dave smiled and replied, "If you have time to worry about her, you might as well get a new lawyer."
In a fit of rage, she threw a cup of water in his face. "Dave Washington, you're despicable!"
Yes, every lawyer she hired was bought off by him with large sums of money. Finally, disheartened, she gave up custody of their daughter and decided to leave the country to heal.
But he sent someone to intercept her at the airport...

You‘re Just My Ex-Husband,My Lord

He decided to go to Lilian's place and have her contact Laurent to let her know to come pick up her phone and luggage.

However, just as he got into the car, he received a call from his sister, Lilian.

"Dave, you need to come to the hospital right now. Dad just fainted!"

Dave furrowed his brows and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

"Well... Dad came to the hospital to visit the lord, and after taking a phone call, he fainted from anger..." Lilian hurriedly explained on the other end.

Dave quickly walked toward the parking lot and replied, "I'm coming right now."

Before hanging up, he asked one more thing, "Where's mom?"

Lilian sighed, "They called mom first when it happened, but after she received the call, she only sent me here. She didn't come herself."

Dave remained silent for a moment after hearing this.

"I understand," he said before hanging up and driving to the hospital.
