After three years of marriage, Wendy Stewart was used to Michael Lucas's sarcastic remarks, his frequent threats about getting divorced, and even his indulgence of a mistress. She thought that she could bear with this her entire life, until she accidentally got pregnant with a child that Michael did not want. Finally despondent, Wendy signed the divorce agreement and left. She thought they could have parted ways forever, but Michael refused to stop looking for her after the divorce. When they met again, she was the world's top designer. Smiling sweetly at her ex-husband, she said, "My dear, we're already divorced." Michael simply stared at her coldly, "Tell me, what will it take for us to reconcile?"
Wendy was a bright girl, after all. She had managed to guess what was happening with just a few short sentences from Christian. It was no wonder why Michael had been so busy recently. It had started the last time they were at the mansion, when he witnessed Anthony bully his mother. After that incident, he was constantly working and barely had time to talk to her. Or perhaps he had been plotting this takeover for a long time, but the opportunity had not yet been ripe until now.
When Wendy arrived to work the following day, she discovered Michael asleep at his desk. She tiptoed over, found a thin blanket, and draped it across his body. However, she accidentally brushed his hand, and he was startled awake.
"Have you notified the shareholders about the meeting?" Michael blurted.
"It's me..."Wendy felt her heartache when she saw how worn out he looked.
