You‘re Just My Ex-Husband,My Lord

Before they got married, Laurent already knew that Dave Washington had another woman in his heart, yet she still chose to marry him because Dave had always been the one she loved. She loved Dave, but his heart belonged to another woman. It was said that this woman loved another man, who happened to be Dave's illegitimate half-brother. Laurent believed that having a child would secure their shaky marriage. Until one day, the woman Dave loved finally told him, "Actually, the person I love is you." Laurent had devoted her youth and energy to this sensational and messy love story, only to helplessly watch it collapse. Heartbroken, she chose to divorce. She thought Dave's infidelity would make her easily give up on the house, car, and property during the divorce, with the only request being custody of their daughter. But to her surprise, Dave insisted that she was unfit to raise their daughter and refused to give her custody. In order to fight for her daughter, she embarked on a long and exhausting legal battle. She said to him, "You're so persistent—aren't you worried your lover is waiting for you anxiously?" Dave smiled and replied, "If you have time to worry about her, you might as well get a new lawyer." In a fit of rage, she threw a cup of water in his face. "Dave Washington, you're despicable!" Yes, every lawyer she hired was bought off by him with large sums of money. Finally, disheartened, she gave up custody of their daughter and decided to leave the country to heal. But he sent someone to intercept her at the airport...

Chapter 17- Blocked

Late at night, the streets were desolate, a time that should have been filled with sweet dreams. Yet, Laurent wandered on the road, wide awake.

What kind of feeling is this?

However, she didn't feel sad or lonely. Instead, she felt like she had been reborn.

Because in her eyes, the endless darkness in her life was about to be lifted, and dawn was just around the corner.

A prestigious neighborhood.

The name of the community alone suggested it was a high-end school district property, and indeed it was. Surrounding this neighborhood were famous schools, from elementary to university, with the only exception being the high school, which was located in another district two streets away.

A school district property, meant for children, but in reality, Dave didn't love her or their child. Dave owned many properties, and Laurent didn't understand why he had chosen this apartment as their marital home.
