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?"
Since Michael was being so shamelessly persistent about staying, Wendy did not kick him out. However, when she woke up the next morning and opened her eyes to see someone lying beside her in bed, she screamed in fright.
"Good morning," said Michael with a smile on his face, evidently in a good mood. He had expected a reaction like this from her.
Wendy swallowed dryly, pointed at him, and said, "What... What are you doing in my bed?"
She recalled Michael sleeping on the couch the previous night. She had been worried that it would be uncomfortable for him to sleep there, and that he would wake up with a backache.
She never expected him to climb into her bed in the middle of the night, though.
