The Divorced Heiress Is Getting Married Again!
Although it was only a marriage of convenience, Amelie Ashford was the perfect wife in every aspect. She was intelligent, obedient, and well-respected. She was kind to everyone and devoted to her husband. And she was perfectly content to spend the rest of her life like that, even though she was constantly nagged about getting pregnant. That was until her husband entered their house with a mistress by his side and eventually demanded a divorce. "Very well," Amelie said calmly, "I will divorce you." Richard's eyes shone as he heard his wife utter these words. However, to his surprise, she was not done. "But don't be surprised when you get an invitation to my next wedding." To everyone's shock, Amelie indeed got married again, and to a younger and, as it turned out, richer man! And she made sure that her ex-husband realized what it meant to lose the support of a woman like her. _____ Important: FL is not a Mary Sue. Divorce happens in the second part of the novel so watch out for your blood pressure.

"Well, you ladies get acquainted then! I have someone else I need to talk to!"
Shelly smiled and left the two women to mingle. Vanessa watched the woman disappear into the crowd and reached out for a wine glass from a passing waiter, her face still expressionless.
She took a sip, her eyes never leaving Samantha's face, studying the younger woman with a mixture of curiosity and caution. Samantha, noticing her glare, smiled brightly and leaned in slightly, her tone dripping with fake concern.
"Are you enjoying the party? I couldn't help but notice that you've been somewhat neglected tonight…" She pouted a little, an exaggerated expression that made Vanessa's frown deepen.
"Not at all, Mrs. Clark," the woman replied coolly. "This evening is not about me, after all."
