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

On the way back to the Villas from the airport, there was complete silence between them.

Once home, Laurent headed to her bedroom to pack her things. Dave followed her in and snatched the clothes from her hands.

"Of course, I'm leaving," he replied.

Laurent lifted her gaze to meet his, calmly speaking:

"Since I've helped you with your task, I hope you will keep your promise and stop bothering me from now on."

During the drive back, Laurent had taken the time to calm down and think things through. No matter what, she had no intention of accepting him back. Her new life hadn't even fully started yet, and she couldn't let herself be pulled back into his world after what happened last night.

If she stayed, she would lose herself even more.
