Chapter 1
At the wedding venue, Yasmin Harrell suddenly appeared.
After seeing this, Leonard Matthews quickly took off his wedding ring and explained in a panic that he had been coerced.
My seven–year–old son dropped the flower basket and ran over to hug Yasmin, acting coquettishly.
The big one and the small one left the bride and chased after the other girl.
I became a laughing stock.
The guests pointed their fingers at me and said I was a mistress who stole someone
else’s love.
Leonard also scolded me. “If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for letting Yasmin know.”
However, what the father and son did not

know was that I had already agreed to implement the Syrena Space Program.
I was only waiting for a week to depart and never see them again.
After Leonard left, the guests I warmly invited surrounded me.
They commented one after another.
“It’s useless if you can’t even tie up a man.”
“I think you held the wedding just to get the money from the gift. It’s really ugly.”
“What bad luck! Spit out all the money!”
Every word was heartbreaking, but I remain calm and composed.
By the time I finished cleaning up the mess and returned home, it was already three o’clock in the night.
Leonard had been sitting quietly in the chair, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

He said with a tone of judgment, “”You’re
back?”
I did not respond and walked straight into the room, but he grabbed me.
My arm hurt.
“Did you choose this day on purpose to let Yasmin know? You did so many bad things nine years ago and now you want to repeat the same trick?”
In fact, we had already held a wedding once before.
Nine years ago, Leonard pursued me crazily.
He waited for me to come and go from get off work every day and brought me a loving breakfast that he made himself.
After sending me home, he still stood downstairs staring at my window foolishly.
Everyone was envious and soon I fell in
love.

After I gave birth to a son, Armand Matthews, Leonard happily took me to the City Hall to get a marriage certificate.
But Yasmin found out.
Because of me, she went abroad in anger, while Leonard hurriedly chased after her.
He waited for a whole day and night at the airport, heartbreaking.
That day, everyone watched my wedding alone with cold eves
After coming back, he looked at me with tears streaming down my face and said. with disdain, “We already have a child and the marriage certificate. My life has been completely tied up by you. What does it matter if we have a wedding party or not?”
“If it wasn’t your dad, who would marry you?”
Hearing what he said, I realized that he did not want to marry me willingly.
My father saved him and he wanted to

repay the kindness of saving his life. But my father was the only family member I had and that life–saving favor took away his
life.
Before he died, my father begged him to give me a home.
My eyes darkened and I pulled my arm back fiercely, speaking in a calm tone, “I’m not Yasmin’s dog and I wouldn’t know if she suddenly returned to Arrendale.”
After that, I went back to my room to sleep.
Leonard had never seen me look so
indifferent before and he was somewhat
taken aback.
After all, when he accused me before, I had already burst into tears.
In the next morning….
When he woke up, he was no longer as
angry as he was yesterday.
Surprisingly, he made a whole table full of breakfast for me.

Enjoying our breakfast, he took out a ring from his hand and gave it to me.
“Joanna, although the wedding hasn’t been held yet, we still need the ring.”
After being together for ten years, Leonard was not even willing to give me a wedding ring.
However, I did not take it. Instead, I stared at him and said, “I only want the pair of rings from the wedding the day before yesterday.”
In an instant, his expression became very ugly.
He took off the ring and threw it somewhere unknown at the wedding
venue.
