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! Michael!" Wendy shouted for Michael who was outside the lounge.
Wendy could no longer be sure of what else Todd would do. She was just a woman after all and did not stand much of a chance at resisting if Todd really did something to her. Hence, she had no time to consider if this would further intensify the conflict between Michael and Todd.
Todd held on to her tightly and confined her in his arms. Upon hearing Wendy's cries for help, Michael immediately dashed into the lounge. When he saw what was happening, he promptly pulled Todd away without thinking.
Todd was no match for Michael. After all, Michael had some combat training. In an instant, he had pulled Todd away from Wendy and gave him a kick in the gut. Then, he reached for Wendy and shielded her with his body.
