After the Substitute Lover Left, the CEO Cried

That day, I waited until late at night, but Leo never came home.

At midnight, Ivy posted her first Twitter post since coming back: [Thank goodness you're still here.]

She also posted a photo, which showed a silhouette reflected on the floor-to-ceiling window.

If the man kissing her wasn't my husband, I might have found it romantic.

Even at midnight, the post quickly made its way to the trending topics.

With Leo's support for my career over the years, my acting had taken off. Ivy's fans, who had been discontented, flocked to my Twitter account to leave comments.

[The true love's back. Someone has to step aside.]

[No man can resist Ivy if she wants him.]

[The one who isn't loved is the mistress, especially when Mr. Hartford and Ivy are just rekindling their love!]

Ivy's fervent fans were all waiting to see my joke, eager to witness my tears for their reunion.

But there were still rational people. Many questioned them.

[The man is married, and the woman broke up first. Now, he's reuniting with her during his marriage. It sounds disgusting.]

[The one who isn't loved is the mistress? Are you kidding or really crazy?]

Leo's actions at the airport also caused the stock of the Hartford Group to fluctuate.

Leo's assistant, Vincent, called me late at night, asking me to clarify the matter in the name of Leo's wife.

I almost laughed. With the photo posted by the protagonist, how could I clarify?

We didn’t even take wedding photos when we got married.

I could only find a photo of us taken on our wedding day from the drawer and posted it online, captioned: [Happy fifth anniversary.]

Vincent was quite quick to act. I had just posted the photo when he left a comment under it with the official account of the Hartford Group.

[Mr. and Mrs. Hartford are such a happy couple. I'm envious!]

Netizens who surfed the web all day also quickly came.

[So, the man in the photo Ivy just posted isn't Mr. Hartford?]

[Mr. and Mrs. Hartford are really happy. Don't bother with those who are trying to get attention.]

[Isn't it obvious who the mistress is?]

...

Public opinion online began to lean towards me because of the photo I posted.

Even as an international superstar who just returned, Ivy began to be scolded for being unworthy.

It was a long day, and I was exhausted.

The following day, I was awakened by the continuous messages on my mobile phone.

I opened my mobile phone and saw that, apart from the caring messages from my agent, the rest were all insults from netizens to me.

I was a bit confused.

Didn't the public opinion reverse last night?

I clicked it and saw all the sarcasm from Ivy's fans to me.

[Pretending! You were just a substitute for Ivy when you married Mr. Hartford. Do you really think you are Mr. Hartford's love?]

[Years of marriage is still not a patch on Ivy's return.]

I went through all the comments on the Internet, and my heart gradually became numb.

Since I couldn't compare with the return of Leo's ex, I decided to let him go.

After all, I never loved him in the first place.

I blocked and deleted Leo's contact information, and then I called my lawyer.

"Draft a divorce agreement for me."
