[Tycoon Romance] [Ex-Husband's Desperate Pursuit] [Intellectual Dominance] [Two Strong Leads] [Sweet and Angsty]
On our third wedding anniversary, Huo Sihan brought home a woman who looked seventy percent like me.
He tossed the divorce papers in front of me and said condescendingly, “It's time for the stand-in to leave the stage.”
I took off my wedding ring and signed calmly, without asking for a single cent in alimony.
He thought I was just a rich man's castoff with no job.
He didn't know his sworn enemy's company had offered me an annual salary of three million.
He didn't know I was the one behind the scenes of the project he'd worked so hard to win.
And he had no idea that I could bring down the business empire he was so proud of in as little as three days.
Later, he cornered me against a wall, eyes bloodshot and voice hoarse as if he'd been crying. “Wantang, I was wrong. Please come back?”
I smiled and returned his own words to him, exactly as he'd said them:
“Mr. Huo, know your place. From the very beginning, you were the outsider.”
“Now that the real deal is back, the stand-in's part...”
“...is over.”
