Ava and Liam had been secretly married for three years when Liam suddenly proposed a divorce. Ava took the money and left. As an art appraiser, she had an amazing career in the art and antique world, becoming well-known and successful. After the divorce, seeing Ava shining brightly on TV, Liam deeply regretted his decision. He turned into a wife-chaser, pursuing her all over the world, but Ava, busy with her career, refused him. Later, Ava met Ethan, her savior from her youth. On the day of her wedding to Ethan, Liam was seriously injured. She left the wedding and rushed to Liam's side. Finally, Liam knelt down on one knee with a diamond ring, asking her to remarry.

Ava smiled slightly and answered sincerely, "No, you're the best mother-in-law anyone could ask for."
