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?"
Wendy Stewart took a long time to regain her composure after hanging up the phone.
The truth that unfolded today had too much of an impact on her. What she found most difficult to swallow was the fact that till now, Michael couldn't tell her the truth.
After the phone call with Yonina, Wendy could essentially confirm that there was nothing going on between Michael and her. However, she couldn't explain the time that she saw both of them lying on the same bed.
Wendy couldn't be sure if Michael had indeed betrayed her. She knew very well that she would not get anything out of Michael even if she had approached him. It was also clear that Yonina was not going to let her in on anything.
Wendy tapped her fingers on the surface of her desk, producing a crisp, rhythmic clicking. The sounds echoed in the empty office before returning to Wendy's ears.
She closed her eyes to go through her thoughts carefully and planned what to do next.
