Unwanted Marriage: Honey, No More Divorce!
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?"
Rival
Tired out, the kids sat down beside Wendy on the bank.
When Leah said she was thirsty, Wendy removed the lid from the jug of water that she had brought with her earlier and handed it to her.
After the kids had drunk a mouthful each, Wendy found herself also feeling thirsty and drank a mouthful too from the jug.
Michael walked towards them, wiping the perspiration from his face with his hand.
When he saw them drinking, he realized that he was feeling thirsty too.
Noticing his gaze on the jug of water, Wendy passed it to him in silence.
Michael looked at the jug with suspicion.
It was the type of see-through jug usually used by people in the rural areas, nothing spectacular in design.
Since it had been in use for a long time, the glass had turned yellow with age, making it look dirty.
"I'm not thirsty," Michael said awkwardly.
