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?"
When she heard Grandmother's concern for her, Wendy's eyes got a little teary.
What else could she do?
Reaching out to wipe the tears from her eyes, Wendy said with great self-restraint, "I... I'm fine."
"Where are you now?" Grandmother simply did not believe Wendy's claim that she was fine.
"I'm really fine, Grandmother..." Wendy said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
After saying that, Wendy hung up the phone before Grandmother could say anything.
She was afraid that if she waited any longer, she would cry and Grandmother would hear her.
When Todd saw her sobbing, he reached out and patted her shoulder. He didn't know what else to say at this point, and could only keep her company in silence.
Then, Wendy got another call. It was her mother, Mary, who called.
