Everyone knew that Aria Jackson had loved Larry Spencer for years. The usually obedient Aria got tattoos for him, broke rules for him, and even moved to a foreign city for him. But when she fell into the lake and he rescued her rival instead, leaving her soaking and miserable, her heart finally shattered completely. The man who came after Larry held her protectively in his arms and suggested with a gentle laugh, "Miss Jackson, have you considered teaching your ex-husband a lesson?" She promptly filed for divorce and married Archer Duncan, the heir to the Duncan empire and the powerful CEO of Duncan Industries. That evening, their marriage certificate was posted on social media. The typically aloof Larry finally showed his desperation, begging her not to marry Archer and then turning to threaten him, "You think she loves you? She's just using the Duncan family's wealth and connections!" Archer simply tightened his arm around her waist and replied calmly, "So what? Fortunately, I have both in abundance." What no one knew was that Aria had been Archer's carefully laid plan all along. He had deeply loved this rose from the beginning—he admired her ambition and was eager to support her boldness and independence.

Late at night, Aria Jackson sat in the lounge, flipping through photos of Larry Spencer with another woman. The pictures were taken secretly, but from a clever angle.Through the car window, the two were clearly having an intense moment. Larry's distinctive mole and the snowflake tattoo on the woman's shoulder were unmistakable.Aria smiled coldly, tossing the photos into the trash can as exhaustion washed over her."Do I really have to get this tattoo?" she asked."Mrs. Spencer, this is your husband's instruction. The tattoo artist is already waiting. Only if you get the same tattoo as Miss Landon can we clear up yesterday's scandal. Of course, you can refuse—if you want your brother's medical payments to stop tomorrow."The secretary's tone was dismissive, her eyes showing no respect. It was as if Aria, the so-called Mrs. Spencer, was nothing more than a disposable joke.And that was exactly the case.Larry's affair with the tattooed woman had gone viral, causing such an uproa...

I can already tell that this is another unnecessary long, dragging, repetitive plot, and unworthy read. Waste of time and money.

On the other end of the phone, the man seemed surprised.After a pause, Archer Duncan's rich, magnetic voice finally responded with deliberate calm. "Agreed. However, Aria, my grandmother is very old, so I'm afraid I can't give you too much time..."He paused briefly."Two weeks at most. I hope you can leave the Spencer household by then. Including finalizing your divorce."His voice was gentle, but his words carried an unmistakable firmness.Aria didn't refuse. She ran her fingers over her platinum wedding band and simply replied, "All right."Five years.After Linda's accident, Larry had married her despite hating her deeply.She had willingly accepted her prison in the Spencer mansion for five years.Now, it was time to leave.She composed herself, once again becoming the elegant, poised Mrs. Spencer before leaving the lounge.When she returned to their penthouse apartment, Larry wasn't there.Aria efficiently packed her belongings. After a while, her phone chimed.The

Chapter 3
Aria felt nothing inside.For five years, Susan had focused on improving her health, yet she still hadn't conceived.Susan had certainly harbored resentment.Back then, Aria had always believed there was a chance to fix things with Larry, so she never mentioned their problems to his family.Instead, she silently endured Susan's complaints and drank the herbal remedies for five years.But now, there was no need to pretend anymore.After the initial shock, Susan quickly realized that since her son had notorious affairs with other women, he couldn't possibly be physically incapable.The only explanation was that the couple had never been intimate.Marcus's face darkened. "Larry, come to my study," he said coldly.Larry was practically laughing with anger.He never imagined Aria would reveal their private matters in front of his family.He shot her a furious look before following his father to the study.Aria pretended not to notice.Susan was stunned by her son's terrible beh

"He won't break his word."Though Aria knew little about Archer Duncan, she inexplicably trusted him.Power provides a foundation for confidence.And Archer's power gave her the confidence to trust him."That's good. When your father passed away, the Pinecrest Resort development was halted. It's good that you're taking it over, but even with the land, funding will be a major issue. Besides, Aria, you haven't worked in real estate for many years..."The resort development had been her father's initiative, led by Jackson Enterprises.Later, when Jackson Enterprises went bankrupt, this valuable property eventually became a commodity waiting for the right buyer.For the past five years, because of Larry, Aria hadn't handled any professional work. Instead, she had diligently played the role of Mrs. Spencer while privately keeping her father's vision close to her heart.Therefore, when Archer proposed a partnership, the first thing she thought of was the Pinecrest Resort development.

As they fell into the water, a crowd quickly gathered around.Christina reacted fast, unable to hold back a curse.People surrounded the pool area. Larry quickly noticed the commotion and rushed over to pull both Lucy and Aria out of the water.After falling in, Lucy looked extremely disheveled. She bit her pale lips as she leaned against Larry's chest."Larry, it’s not Aria’s fault. She didn't deliberately pull me into the pool..."Water dripped from her hair, making her look pitiful and vulnerable.In contrast, Aria calmly took the towel Christina handed her and casually dried herself off, her expression remarkably composed.Larry draped his jacket over Lucy's shoulders and looked coldly at Aria. "Did you do this?"His tone was identical to five years ago.Aria raised her eyes calmly, but her composure only angered Larry more."Aria, wasn't it enough that you hurt Linda five years ago? Lucy has just returned home, why are you targeting her too? Are you really this desperate

Chapter 6
Aria looked at the man before her—handsome and elegant, carrying the natural composure of someone from Manhattan's elite circles. Even discussing such matters, his demeanor remained calm."Mr. Duncan is only a few years older than me. They say men at this age are mature and steady, and I can see that's true of you," Aria said. "But I have one question that needs answering."Since Archer was already selecting wedding bands and planning their married life, she needed clarity on certain things.The man's cool, narrow eyes lifted slightly. "Please ask.""Would you ever be unfaithful, Mr. Duncan?"After asking, she immediately felt it was inappropriate.The atmosphere in the private lounge seemed to shift at the mention of infidelity, though Archer's expression remained unchanged, his features still calm and refined.He poured a cup of Earl Grey tea and pushed it toward her. Rising steam from the porcelain cup enveloped her beautiful yet gentle face, and she could smell the subtle be

Chapter 7
Did Larry have any love for Aria?How could he not? If he didn't love her, he wouldn't hate her so much.He hated her coldness, hated that she had indirectly caused Linda's death, hated how she always seemed so detached and above it all.He had married her to make her suffer. He couldn't stand seeing her so high above him, where he could only look up at her.She was supposed to be his woman, yet she made him feel like a fool.Just like now—Aria seeing him with Lucy and remaining so calm, even clearly mentioning divorce.How dare she?She hadn't yet paid her debt to him. How could Aria simply turn and leave while he remained trapped in the same place, unable to escape that nightmare!Larry's dark eyes grew intense and somber, the corners tinged with red. He grabbed Aria's wrist.In the next moment, he had pinned her against the leather sofa next to the hospital bed.Larry gripped her slender wrist so hard that a purple bruise was forming.She winced in pain, but he leaned in

Larry's face immediately darkened. Lucy, her face pale, was now explaining to him with a pitiful expression."Larry, I wasn't lying. I really wasn't feeling well..."Her voice was soft and tearful, making Aria feel sick to her stomach."Do you know who that person was just now?"Seeing that Larry was about to comfort Lucy again, Aria spoke mockingly, "That was Dr. Ethan Alexander."With that, Aria turned to leave.She didn't want to continue watching this circus act.It was degrading and boring.Ethan Alexander.The famous young medical prodigy, the director of this hospital—to suggest he had misdiagnosed such a simple condition? That was the real joke.Larry stared at Aria's slender figure with dark, hostile eyes, his voice cold with anger.”Aria, I haven't agreed to the divorce. Don't imagine you can leave the Spencer family so easily!"Aria paused but didn't turn around. Her voice carried a hint of mockery."The Spencer family isn't yours to command. I'll discuss this wit

"Lucy isn't that kind of person..." Larry tried to explain, his face growing pale. Marcus frowned and interrupted his childish defense."Enough. Regardless of what kind of person Lucy is, you need to remember that not just anyone can be the Spencer family's daughter-in-law."You and Aria cannot divorce. Everyone in our circles knows your wife is Aria, and the Spencer family has built marketing campaigns around her as our daughter-in-law. Aria is now tied to the Spencer name. After a divorce, both the stock market and the public would become suspicious, affecting our company's stock price."Once our stock price is affected, our competitors will dig up your scandals. Larry, do you think your reputation can withstand scrutiny?"Aria had been invited to Bulgari and other luxury brand events through her friend Christina. Those photos and videos had trended online, and she had been pursued by fans for her striking beauty and unique charm. When Spencer Corp claimed her as their CEO's wi

Chapter 10
"Thank you, Mr. Duncan."Regardless of why Archer had chosen her, a married woman, what he was doing for her now far exceeded any benefit she could bring him.Her gratitude was genuine."I think our relationship doesn't require such formality," Archer said quietly. Even through the phone, she could feel the coolness in his voice.Aria gripped her phone and made a sound of agreement."I've sent the medical team's information to your phone. Dr. Alexander will be leading the surgery. You can rest assured."Aria instinctively wanted to say thank you again, but remembering Archer's previous words, she held back.Archer didn't hang up. Through the phone, they could hear each other's soft breathing.Aria paused, recalling how someone once told her that people who care about you will wait for you to hang up first.But what were she and Archer to each other?She couldn't possibly be that important to him.A hint of self-mockery rose in Aria's heart."Mr. Duncan, I'll see you tomorro
