By the time I had finished working on the new project, it was already well into the evening. My wife, Suzanne Brenner, had called and asked me to pick her up from the hotel. I hurried to my hotel and discovered that an industry summit was being held there. The brightly-lit lobby was filled with people. But I spotted Queenie, my ex-wife, in the crowd immediately. I hadn't seen Queenie in eight years. She was standing next to Liam Manson, and the pair was speaking to people around them with a smile."You seem to be doing really well, Ms. Lloyd. Your new office building just opened up, but the investment projects are already snatched up," a middle-aged man said to Queenie with a smile.Then, he continued, "It's incredibly difficult to make a reservation at this hotel. I can't believe you managed to secure the venue and host the industry summit here. You're truly a role model for all of us!"Queenie nodded and replied in a gentle voice, "You're too kind, Mr. Smith. I wouldn't be whe

A notification popped up on my phone—Suzanne was urging me to come get her. This hotel actually belonged to me, but I couldn't be bothered to explain that to them.Queenie froze for a moment before she started to frown. "Don't you know how to seize an opportunity when it's presented to you? I can't believe you're trying to run away instead. It's been years. Did you not strive to be better after you left me?""Don't say that, Queenie. Maybe Mr. Lawrence needs to meet up with a business partner," Liam said softly. Then, he turned toward me and added, "Please feel free to reach out to me whenever you need help. You took care of Queenie for me. So, it's only right that I thank you for it."The man in gold glasses looked me up and down before scoffing in disdain. "All things aside, your clothes look extremely shabby, Mr. Lawrence. Would you like my driver to lend you his clothes for the time being? It's nothing fancy, but it's a lot better than what you're wearing right now."Upon hea

I held Samuel with one arm and wrapped my free arm around Suzanne. We were just about to leave when Queenie's frantic and unyielding voice rang out from behind us. "James! Wait!" I continued walking as if I didn't hear her."James Lawrence!" Queenie screamed in a raised voice.At this point, her voice sounded slightly sharp and piercing. After calling out to me, she ran after us and planted herself right in the middle of our path. She was panting, and her hair was slightly disheveled."Are you going to leave just like that?" she demanded.I stared at her and replied emotionlessly, "Do you have something else to say, Ms. Lloyd? I've already offered you my congratulations.""You—" She seemed taken aback by the way I addressed her. She eyed Suzanne and me with a complicated expression before finally glancing at Samuel. "Is he really your son? I think there's been some kind of misunderstanding between us—""A misunderstanding?" I cut her off.Disturbed by the commotion, Samu

Following the industry summit, Queenie shut herself in her office and didn't see anyone for an entire day. She sat at her desk and subconsciously tapped her fingers against the surface of the table. She was repeatedly thinking about what happened the night before.She thought of the child who was a splitting image of me, and the graceful woman who was holding my arm. She also recalled how Richard addressed Suzanne and me as Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence. On top of everything, she was thinking about the way I looked at her as if she were a complete stranger.She suddenly pushed a desk ornament off her desk. The ornament shattered on the floor with a sharp and grating crash.Queenie's chest was heaving, and she became flooded with shame, regret, and bitter resentment.All of a sudden, her secretary, Joanne Larkin, cautiously knocked on the door. Then, Joanne entered the room and provided her with a work update."Our partnership proposal has been rejected by the team at Lawrence Group, Ms.

It was a regular afternoon, and I had returned to my office to handle some work affairs. All of a sudden, Queenie walked into my office. She was dressed in plain and modest clothes. Her outfit made her look like a weak and powerless woman; she looked nothing like the aggressive and domineering businesswoman she had been before. "James…" she croaked as she shut the door behind her. "I miss you so much.""This is inappropriate, Ms. Lloyd," I said coolly once I took a seat at my desk. "Please leave my office."She hastily stepped forward and placed her hands on my desk. "I know I've made a mistake," she said as her eyes welled up with tears. "I wasn't thinking clearly. I shouldn't have treated you like a replacement. I never should have divorced you either…"I stared at her emotionlessly. I was unfazed by her comments."I've forgotten about our past a long time ago," I replied."You've forgotten about our past? I don't believe you!" she screamed.She shook her head and started
