Ling Jin's white moonlight has gotten a divorce. I never expected that she would actually get divorced! Back then, she abandoned Ling Jin so decisively, and that's how I got my chance. Now that she's back, doesn't that put me in a very dangerous position? No way! I quickly packed my things and rushed out the door, while my mother-in-law shouted from behind, "Where are you going?" The hallway echoed with my response: "To take care of Ling Jin's mistress during her postpartum confinement!"
Hubert Rhodes's first love had divorced.
I could never have dreamed that she'd actually end up getting a divorce!
Back then, she ditched Hubert so cleanly, and that was how I got my shot with him.
Now that she was back, didn't that put me in a tight spot?
No way!
I hurriedly packed my bags and rushed out the door. Joanna Rhodes, Hubert's mother, called after me, "Where are you going?"
My voice echoed down the hallway, "To take care of Hubert's mistress during her postpartum care!"

I wouldn't divorce Hubert.
I had been hounding him for close to half a year, and finally got him to secure a Lamborghini for me. There was no way I'd go for a divorce at this critical juncture!
This month's allowance still hadn't come my way!
Wanna get divorced? Sure thing, but it would come with a separate price tag!
Determined, I slammed my foot on the accelerator and made it to the postpartum care center where Carly Bowen was.
This postpartum care center was funded by Hubert's company. It was originally built for my preconception preparation. Everything was top-notch-even the nannies had advanced degrees. Total luxury, and it practically drove those old classmates of mine, who had always disliked me, crazy with envy.
Sadly, I was a letdown. I still hadn't conceived a baby to this day.
But Carly! She managed to return with a baby on the way, as if she hit the jackpot!
Truly cunning!
"Please, don't let Hubert divorce me." I knelt by the hospital bed, tears streaming down my face, clutching Carly's pant leg, begging her not to take away my cash cow.
"I can give you the villa, even him, as long as you let me keep my marriage with Hubert and continue receiving my five hundred thousand monthly allowance..." Tears streaming down my face in utter despair, I tugged so hard that I ripped off a section of Carly's pant leg.
Carly clutched the waist of her pants, stopping me from yanking them all the way down. Her face ashen, she stared blankly at the opposite wall.
"Ariella?" From the doorway came Hubert's cool, deep voice tinged with hesitation.
He wasn't sure.
Yep, really wasn't sure.
He came closer, glimpsed my tear-stained face, and only then did he fully believe it was actually me here.
He knitted his brows. Just as he was about to open his mouth, I instantly fell to the ground, clutching my chest and faking pain.
I feared his anger most.
Seeing my shameless act, he swallowed his words, apologizing to Carly, "I'm sorry."
Then, with effortless ease, he lifted me up, dragging me outside by the arm.
"What are you doing here?" He tossed me against the wall without mercy. I leaned against it, pursing my lips, looking around in panic, clearing my throat, and pointed to the luggage set aside.
"Um...I'm here to take care of Carly during her postpartum care."
Hubert glanced at the luggage I pointed to, noticing the high-tech air purifier I had spent a fortune on, one of only three in the world. Only then did he believe I was genuinely here to care for Carly during her postpartum care.
"Are you crazy?" He asked, and I immediately felt guilty, cautiously observing his expression to gauge his emotions.
Then, I put on a pitiful look, reaching out to hook his finger. "Can we not divorce... I'll be good, I'll take care of Carly during her postpartum care, and I can even learn and train here to help you with the kid in the future..."
Hubert's eyes quivered slightly. The coldness in them finally softened into tenderness. He reached out his slender fingers to wipe away my tears, pulling me into his arms. His low, rumbling voice came right next to my ear, "I'm asking you-are you crazy?"
I am crazy?
He was not angry!
I snuggled into his arms, looking up to kiss his Adam's apple, "Yes, I am crazy. I am crazy in love with you, Hubert."
