A year ago, Aveline Young found a man with amnesia on the side of the road and brought him home. This man was strikingly handsome, with broad shoulders, long legs, and a face that could easily earn a fortune in modeling. Aveline felt an embarrassing flutter in her heart and on a whim, they quickly got married. However, once the man recovered his memory, his first action was to divorce her, claiming he needed to go back and take over his family's business. Aveline was stunned but accepted the divorce, thinking that money was more important and that she shouldn't be tied to one man when there were plenty of younger options available. On the day they finalized their divorce, Aveline shocked everyone in Cloudflare City with a bold statement in the divorce papers: "He’s no good, so I got bored." Post-divorce, Aveline was never short of attention from young, attractive men. At one social event, a friend inquired whether she would ever consider reconciling. Aveline scoffed. "The one who brings up getting back together is a dog!" Late one night, her phone rang. "Who's this?" "Woof!"

As the door closed, Lucas gripped Aveline's arm tightly and pulled her close, his eyes cold. "Aveline, I can tolerate your antics, but using an elderly woman with dementia is crossing the line." Aveline's wrist hurt from his grip, but his words hurt even more.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Lucas sneered, "Didn't you deliberately approach my -grandmother and reveal your identity? You'll stop at nothing to avoid a divorce!"
Aveline laughed in anger.
How could he think of her this way?
Hadn't he learned anything about her in the past year?
The grievance welled up inside her, but she forced it down. She raised her chin. "I don't want a divorce, but I had no idea she was your grandmother!"
"Stop pretending." Lucas tightened his grip on her wrist. "If you didn't tell her, why would she keep calling you her granddaughter-in-law?"
