On the day of my mother's funeral, I rushed to the venue only to find it decked out for a joyous wedding. My husband, Lu Chen, and his first love, Su Qing, smiled as they exchanged rings. The moment he saw me, Lu Chen sneered and pulled out one of my mother's keepsakes. “Sign the divorce papers, and I'll consider giving the necklace back!” We'd been married for three years, and I had taken care of his whole family. But today was my mother's funeral. “As long as I don't sign, the mistress will always be the mistress!” When he saw I wouldn't give in, his face darkened. He crushed the necklace underfoot. “Serve us well today, and I'll give it back.” So I put on a waitress's uniform and let Su Qing pour glass after glass of red wine over me. The entire room's mocking stares pierced me like knives. I wiped the wine from my face and looked at his cold expression. Then I smiled and calmly signed the divorce papers. “Keep the necklace.” “This is the last time. I'm marrying your uncle.” “From now on, remember to call me Auntie.”
