Ex-husband seeks remarriage？I'm not cooperating!
In a marriage of convenience, Nathan, after a night of drinking, has an affair with Ava, leading to her ectopic pregnancy. Before the surgery, Ava calls Nathan, who is preoccupied with his mistress and neglects Ava, even going as far as to accuse her of having an affair and carrying another man's child after the surgery... As their one-year contractual marriage comes to an end, Nathan realizes his feelings for Ava. But Ava is not willing to play along anymore! Excerpt： "I am Nathan Ford's girlfriend, loved by him, as everyone knows. And you... you're just a title holder, soon to be thrown out. By then, you'll lose all your dignity... no, you've already lost it. I bet your deceased mother would turn in her grave if she knew what you've become." Hearing Iris Hart's sharp and biting words, Ava Sterling initially didn't want to stoop to her level. However, the mention of her late mother crossed a line. A crisp slap echoed before Iris Hart could even react, leaving five bright red marks on her face. "Ah—Ava Sterling—you lowlife, how dare you hit me..." Iris Hart realized she had been slapped and reached out to retaliate, but Ava Sterling was prepared and caught her hand easily. "Listen, Iris Hart, if I'm the joke, what does that make you? You're also a joke. At least I'm Nathan Ford's wife by law! You! Iris Hart, are nothing but a mistress scorned by everyone. Every wealthy man may stray, but a hotel is just a hotel, and home is home. There can be many dishes, but there's only one bowl of rice."
Slander
"I thought I heard someone talking about me just now?"
Iris, holding her goblet with a flick of her wrist, flashed a smug smile towards Ava.
"I was actually calling out to you, but it seemed like you didn't hear me. The lady next to me was helping me call you, too. No one was talking about you."
"Really? I was just wondering where that barking noise was coming from in such a vast garden. I must have misheard," Ava responded as she lifted her glass in a courteous toast.
The woman beside them, who had been silent until then, suddenly bristled at Ava's remark.
"Who are you calling a dog? Haven't your family ever taught you manners? It's rude to say such things. Do you even deserve to be here at this discussion?"
"Oh, Lily, don't be upset. Ava has always been like this, and I guess it's my fault for not being famous enough, dragging you all into this," Iris intervened with feigned concern.
