Chapter 1

At his daughter’s first birthday party, the husband ordered a separate dish for his assistant.

Without a moment's hesitation, I sent a message to my lawyer friend and asked him to draft a divorce agreement.

Seeing the agreement, Gavin Rivers laughed out of anger.

"There are hundreds of dishes at the birthday banquet, but you're only staring at Ning Ning's dish?"

"Can you please curb your possessiveness?"

"Whatever you say," I said calmly, "I'm going to get a divorce anyway."

When I hurried back to the banquet hall, my husband's assistant took the seat that originally belonged to me.

She was wearing a dress of the same color as Gavin Rivers, and her every move and gesture acted like a hostess.

"Ren Zhu and the boss look like a perfect match."

"The boss goes to work with Ren Zhu every day, and they might even be living together."

When I heard the company employee's words, my heart felt like it was being gripped by an invisible hand.

Seeing me coming back, Riley Young apologized.

"Sister-in-law, it's all my fault that I spilled red wine on your clothes due to my clumsiness."

"You won't blame me?"

Before I could respond, Gavin Rivers spoke first.

"Don't I know what you are like?"

"Go sit at table number three. I ordered you a bowl of porridge."

Everyone praised Gavin Rivers for his attentiveness to his colleagues.

"Just now the girl said she had a stomachache, so Mr. Jiang ordered some porridge for her."

"Her feet were rubbed and bleeding, and Mr. Jiang put a band-aid on them for her."

"The lady must be lucky to have such a thoughtful man."

I smiled on the surface, but my nails dug deep into my palms.

Gavin Rivers used to hate stupidity more than anyone.

Sometimes he would get angry and fire his assistant just because he had an extra name tag.

I haven't seen such patience for a long time.

"Today's protagonist is my daughter, please don't talk about me."

Gavin Rivers spoke calmly without any explanation.

The birthday party was about to begin, and he stopped me from getting up.

"I forgot to tell you, I've already decided on Luna's godmother."

Before I could react, Riley Young put a protective locket on Luna.

She placed a kiss on the side of her daughter's face, "I will be Luna's mother from now on."

Looking up, the defiance in her eyes was clearly visible.

Keep everything simple.

Near the end, Gavin Rivers suddenly interrupted the flow.

"According to the rules, Luna should kowtow to Ningning to be recognized as her godmother today."

"Kowtow?" I frowned. "Luna is only one year old. Kowtow can easily cause suffocation and brain damage."

"Can you please think before you speak?"

Gavin Rivers said in a bad tone, "Is it Luna who can't do it, or are you still skeptical about the choice of Luna's godmother?!"

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, I've already delivered the protective locket, so the ceremony is complete."

Riley Young interrupted our argument, and the man who had been arguing with me the previous second immediately calmed down.

"Can I send a few words of blessing to Luna?"

With Gavin Rivers' tacit approval, the microphone was placed in Riley Young's hands.

I glanced across the table, and the wine glass with some red wine remaining on it was particularly eye-catching.

Riley Young smiled.

"I heard Luna is an IVF baby."

"Now that I look closely, it really lacks some human touch."

"The IVF baby must be very delicate. It's hard for my sister-in-law to take care of it."

"Oh, by the way, Luna knows that she is from the laboratory..."

There was a crisp sound.

I walked off the stage and slapped Riley Young in the face.

I hit her head and it tilted, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Another crisp sound.

Gavin Rivers said coldly, "This is returned to you on behalf of Ningning."
