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?"
"Cool it, Christian," Clement reminded him, worried that Christian might fall apart emotionally.
This was a matter concerning his safety.
At the sound of Clement's voice, Christian looked down and glowered at him.
If he had not been caught, would Christian be in such a pathetic state?
"Just shut up!" Christian roared back.
At Christian's words, Clement was offended.
"What do you mean?" Clement spoke harshly. "You were the one who assured me that you had made appropriate arrangements to send me out safely.
"And while I was at your car park, within your territory, I got caught.
"Are you really screaming at me?"
Christian was livid by now, yet he held himself back once more as he reasoned, "You had known the matters between yourself, and Michael Lucas and you knew that he had been looking for you throughout the world.
"Yet you sent yourself knocking on his door and bringing all these troubles to yourself!"
