Ex-husband seeks remarriage?I'm not cooperating!

In a marriage of convenience, Nathan, after a night of drinking, has an affair with Ava, leading to her ectopic pregnancy. Before the surgery, Ava calls Nathan, who is preoccupied with his mistress and neglects Ava, even going as far as to accuse her of having an affair and carrying another man's child after the surgery... 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."

Unexpected Visits

Seeing Ava's silence, Alex's palms began to sweat. His eyes, full of hope, were fixed on her. Ava felt a pang of guilt looking into his expectant gaze, but...

 

"I'm sorry, I can't accept."

 

The light in Alex's eyes dimmed instantly. He lowered his head and let out a bitter laugh. It was both expected and unexpected—Ava still wasn't willing to accept him.

 

"Why?" Alex asked softly, needing to know where he had fallen short.

 

"Because you deserve better. Besides, things between Nathan and me aren't settled yet. It wouldn't be fair to you." Ava's words were vague, but she believed Alex would understand.

 

In that moment, a myriad of thoughts rushed through Alex's mind. Yet, within seconds, he composed himself and offered Ava a gentle smile. "If that's the case, then let's remain friends."
