On my birthday, Ethan brought his petite secretary to attend my birthday party.
Melody was wearing the same dress as me, and people around us were whispering and staring at me.
"At her age, she's still trying to dress like a young girl."
As I shifted my gaze, I noticed that the necklace Melody was wearing was also identical to mine.
But this necklace was the one Ethan had bought for me on my birthday last year, and it was supposed to be one-of-a-kind worldwide.
Melody, taking advantage of the crowd, shoved me and whispered mockingly in my ear, "An old hag like you only deserves to wear fakes."
I lost my balance and fell into the swimming pool.
Crawling out of the water in a mess, I was ready to slap Melody back, but as I raised my hand, it was stopped before I could follow through.
"Scarlett, look at yourself! What a mess!"
It was Ethan. I looked at him in disbelief.
He said, "If you don't want to enjoy your birthday, then get out."
I pushed him away and left the banquet hall alone.
Behind me, he jeered, "Good riddance. At least you won't embarrass yourself here anymore."
And so, on my 28th birthday, I found myself walking alone to a law firm.
"Hello, I'd like to file for divorce."

BF Brought His Little Secretary To Slap Me In The

On another sunny afternoon, someone hurriedly pushed open the door of the pet hospital, cradling an injured kitten in their arms.


I quickly guided them to the examination room. The situation wasn't urgent, and I let out a sigh of relief. Only then did I have time to look up, and to my surprise, it was Brent.


He said he was also in this city, just driving by when he saw an injured kitten on the roadside. He immediately searched for the nearest pet hospital.


Everything seemed coincidental, yet somehow destined.


The kitten stayed here to recover, and Brent came to visit it every day.


Through our daily chats, I learned that he was actually the CEO of a publicly traded company.


I couldn't help but mutter, "How come you, as a CEO, have so much free time to volunteer and hang out at our hospital every day? You're truly the epitome of the evil capitalist."


He suddenly leaned close to me and said, "What are you saying? Speak up, didn't you eat today?"
