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 knew that Wendy had gotten out of bed and had gone out to the balcony.
But he pretended to be asleep and did not follow her out. He knew that Wendy needed time alone to calm down and sort out her thoughts. So Michael gave her the time and space she wanted.
Standing alone on the balcony at night, feeling the cold wind blowing over her, Wendy stared far away. Lights shimmered under the night sky. There were very few cars at that hour. It felt a little lonely and deserted.
Wendy started caressing her tummy subconsciously. Her mind was replaying the nightmare she just had. She realized that she could not bring herself to accept a baby under such circumstances.
