Love Lost, Dreams Found

Jack's Pampered Girlfriend Threatens to Break Up for the 99th Time

He handed me the divorce papers.

"Emma, just sign them. It's only to pacify the little one. Once she calms down, we'll remarry."

My heart turned cold as I decisively signed the divorce agreement.

The onlookers marveled: "Jack, you're really something! You've got your wife completely under control!"

"Share your secrets for taming a wife with us, bro!"

Jack smugly stubbed out his cigarette.

"She loves me to death. For me, she'd willingly be my dog!"

Laughter erupted behind me like fireworks, illuminating the disgrace of my ten-year marriage.

That night, he brought the young girl home.

The girl's pleading voice, like a little rabbit's, echoed throughout the night.

I picked up my pre-packed luggage and turned to leave.

The housekeeper tried to stop me, but Jack looked at me with contempt.

"Let her go. She's nothing without me!"

"Does she still think she's that triple crown winner from back then?"

He kissed the young girl's face spitefully, his eyes fixed on me.

The next day, the whole city was betting on which day Jack's disobedient ex-wife would come begging back.

But what they didn't know was that my best friend Sophie, a famous director, was already waiting for me in a stretch limo outside, ready to take me to Cannes.

Seeing that I wasn't jealous, Jack hurried after me.

I waited silently for him to speak, but he just grabbed my suitcase.

"Emma, the little girl's dream is to become an award-winning actress. She wants to see the trophies. Bring them out for her to play with!"

The price of becoming a triple crown winner was the pain throughout my body. He knew how important those trophies were to me.

He also knew I would definitely take the trophies when I left, yet he deliberately tried to stop me.

Seeing my silence, he frowned impatiently.

"Aren't you tired of looking so miserable all the time? It's bad luck!"

"Just tell me, how much? Is $100 million enough?"

Money? If we're really talking about money, how much would the prime ten years of an award-winning actress be worth?

I smiled bitterly, looking at Lily's face, which bore a 60% resemblance to my younger self.

They say a man's loyalty is always to an 18-year-old girl.

I wonder how long this girl, who debuted under the name "Little Emma", could accompany Jack.

I handed her the trophy, sincerely wishing: "I heard you're from the same drama school? I hope your dreams come true soon!"

Seeing my obedient demeanor, he nodded with satisfaction and took the initiative to be nice to me.

"As long as you take good care of the little girl, I might consider letting you be her supporting actress."

I smiled bitterly: "Me, her supporting actress? Does she dare to accept that?"

Back then, because of Jack's words: "I worry about you. Why don't you stop filming and just be Mrs. Lawrence?"

I annou...
