The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce

She had always been obedient and docile in their three years of hidden marriage, watching as he surrounded himself with women and was mired with endless scandals. On the day the subject of his unrequited love returned to the country, she quietly handed him a divorce agreement. “What, you have someone you like?” he asked coldly. She smiled nonchalantly. “Yes. You may not acknowledge me as your wife, but someone will acknowledge me as their lover.” Later, as the Thompson family acknowledged their connection, she became a rich daughter who was out of his reach. As men flocked around her, Michael Gallagher realized that in those three years, she had planted the seeds of love that had now grown into a towering tree, binding him for life.

Chapter 269: A Clichéd Life

Mr. Jenkins was sipping tea and reading the news in the restaurant when the housekeeper walked in. He stood by the door and whispered, "Mr. Leaford and his daughter are here."

Mr. Jenkins paused lifting his tea: "Which daughter?"

"The older one."

The older daughter, that would be Zoey Lambert.

He had once taken a liking to this girl as well, considered her character to be good, suitable for his granddaughter-in-law.

Thinking of his silly grandson, he sighed deeply.

This grandson, born to his son and daughter-in-law, was the legitimate grandson of the Jenkins family. However, he had become mentally handicapped after a fall not long after his birth. To preserve the Jenkins family's reputation, he hid this grandson very strictly, and the public, even if they knew, didn't dare discuss it too much. Instead, the news about Michael, who was thought to be the illegitimate son of the Jenkins family, was widely spread.
