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?"
After his motive was exposed by Michael, Christian acted as if he was not surprised.
He smiled simply, his expression as light as the wind.
Seeing Christian's look, Michael looked at him viciously. "You owe my mother an apology too," he enunciated each word as he spoke.
"I"m sorry." Christian bowed deeply before Winnie, his attitude humble and sincere.
At least on the surface it seemed that way.
No one had expected that Christian would apologize so quickly. He did not say anything else after his apology. Not only was Michael surprised, but even Lily was surprised.
Lily held Christian's hand and asked softly, "Why are you apologizing?"
"My brother has asked me to apologize. Of course I have to apologize." Christian had an as-a-matter-of-fact expression. "Elder brother is like a father."
Christian's simple statement had changed the nature of the apology.
