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?"
Michael led the way, followed by Wendy with Jake in tow. Todd, carrying Leah in his arms, walked behind Wendy.
Seeing that Michael had walked further ahead, Wendy slowed down her pace and moved closer to Todd, whispering, "Did he give you a hard time in the car?" Wendy had to ask, not sure if Michael would act up with Todd.
"No, he didn't. In fact, we had a pleasant chat." Todd replied.
Noticing that the footsteps behind him were getting fainter, Michael turned around instinctively. Seeing Wendy and Todd walking shoulder to shoulder and chatting, he scowled.
Retracing his footsteps, he looked first at Wendy before smiling at Todd, "This is a reputable restaurant in Lake City. Their signature dish, the roast duck, is sublime.
You must try it, Mr. Lewis."
"Sure!" Todd responded politely.
