The Divorced Heiress Is Getting Married Again!
Although it was only a marriage of convenience, Amelie Ashford was the perfect wife in every aspect. She was intelligent, obedient, and well-respected. She was kind to everyone and devoted to her husband. And she was perfectly content to spend the rest of her life like that, even though she was constantly nagged about getting pregnant. That was until her husband entered their house with a mistress by his side and eventually demanded a divorce. "Very well," Amelie said calmly, "I will divorce you." Richard's eyes shone as he heard his wife utter these words. However, to his surprise, she was not done. "But don't be surprised when you get an invitation to my next wedding." To everyone's shock, Amelie indeed got married again, and to a younger and, as it turned out, richer man! And she made sure that her ex-husband realized what it meant to lose the support of a woman like her. _____ Important: FL is not a Mary Sue. Divorce happens in the second part of the novel so watch out for your blood pressure.
Too Much To Bear
Samantha paced nervously back and forth in the bedroom, her bare feet sinking into the plush white carpet with every step. Her hands fidgeted uncontrollably, and she found herself biting on her thumbnail, a habit she refused to break.
The woman's audacious remark at the tea party echoed in her mind yet again and she felt her jaw clenching.
"You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear."
The venom in that simple phrase had been enough to send Samantha spiraling, and now, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't push the memory away.
Anger simmered just below the surface, bubbling up every time she recalled the smug look on the woman's face, half-hidden by the teacup.
How dare she? How dare any of them look down on her? She was Mrs. Richard Clark, for God's sake. She had fought hard for this life, clawed her way to the top, and yet here she was, being ridiculed by women who saw her as nothing more than an impostor.
