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."

Ambiguity

Alex's gaze was too intense, causing Zoe to stiffen and lose her footing on flat ground. Her left foot tripped over her right, and she tumbled down awkwardly.

 

Her knee hit the ground hard, and Alex, without a word, quickly went over to help her up. Before Zoe could react, she found herself enveloped in Alex's embrace.

 

Her heart began to race, her face growing hot—whether from the alcohol or the closeness, she wasn't sure—and Alex's scent filled her nostrils.

 

"How could you be so careless?" Alex's voice, deep and melodious like a cello, sounded above her.

 

Feeling her blood rush, Zoe quickly pushed Alex away.

 

"I'm sorry..."

 

She ran off immediately, embarrassed by her clumsy fall.

 

Watching Zoe's hasty retreat, Alex chuckled softly to himself and then followed her back into the private room.
