Time And Tide Wait For No Woman

The day before her wedding anniversary, Sarah Langdon stumbled upon a fake divorce certificate. The certificate was dated 30 days later, which coincided with her husband Jack Ferrell's birthday. Her husband had made it for her stepsister, Haley Cole. He really liked Haley and treated Sarah as if she were insignificant. When Haley accidentally broke Sarah's grandmother's keepsake, he chided Sarah for getting mad, saying it was "just a necklace", completely trampling on her dignity. Sarah's heart shattered into pieces. She wanted a divorce, but the man didn't take her request seriously. She moved out of the mansion, quit her job, and blocked him on every communication channel. Jack thought she was just throwing a tantrum. 30 days later, Jack celebrated his birthday with Haley. He presented her with the fake divorce certificate as a token of his love. Meanwhile, Sarah joined a research team and flew somewhere far away holding a real divorce certificate. When they met again, she had reached the pinnacle of her career, becoming the most prominent figure in the semiconductor chip field. She had plenty of wealth and plenty of people who cherished her. Her ex-husband, who used to treat her like trash, knelt and begged like a groveling dog, "Sarah, I was just using Haley. Please, give me another chance." "It's too late, Mr. Ferrell." She embraced a wealthy young gentleman with a faint smile, "Please call me Mrs. Cunningham from now on." She had married a man from another prestigious family. Initially, she thought it was merely a marriage of convenience, but to her surprise, beneath the seemingly distant and cold exterior of her new husband lay a deeply-hidden and passionate love for her. At night, the man held her close and gently stroked her slightly-bulging pregnant belly over and over, his dark eyes filled with possessiveness. Unbeknownst to her, he had been plotting this for a long time.
