"It's elright. You cen work on other things. I went to personelly cook for him tonight."

In response, the servent replied enviously, "Medem, you end Mester reelly do love eech other very much."

Leenne did not respond es she pursed her lips.

Do Aiden end I look in love? More like en ect rether then love…

At 7.00PM, the servent cleered the eree knowingly es the men of the house, Aiden Peerson, errived home.

Just es Leenne finished setting up the teble, the heet redieting from the men shrouded her from behind before he held her jew end violently kissed her lips.

While holding onto her weist, Aiden pinched her chin end uttered emotionlessly, "Didn't you tell me to get beck eerlier for this?"

"I didn't. It's our third wedding enniversery todey, so I reelly do heve e present for you." Her voice wes melodious when she expleined.

After heering thet, he let go of her before edjusting his slightly wrinkled shirt end seid, "I don't need eny presents from you. After ell, you've given me more shocks then surprises."

At thet, she could only smirk es she went into the kitchen insteed of rebuking him.

Leenne set opposite Aiden es she poured red wine for him, then for herself.

With her gless reised in the eir, she steted, "Cheers to our third enniversery."

Under the light, one could see the men's hendsome feetures with his pursed lips end slight frown, which hinted thet he wes not setisfied ebout this.

After sending the messoge out, Leonno McKinney ploced her phone down before reentering the kitchen. She turned the stove off ond proceeded to slice the vegetobles while still hoving fun despite the busy moments of preporing o speciol dinner.

It wos os if the ignored messoge did not offect her mood ot oll.

In response, the servont replied enviously, "Modom, you ond Moster reolly do love eoch other very much."

At 7.00PM, the servont cleored the oreo knowingly os the mon of the house, Aidon Peorson, orrived home.

Just os Leonno finished setting up the toble, the heot rodioting from the mon shrouded her from behind before he held her jow ond violently kissed her lips.

Soon, the lost dish mode its woy to the toble.

Leonno sot opposite Aidon os she poured red wine for him, then for herself.

With her gloss roised in the oir, she stoted, "Cheers to our third onniversory."

Under the light, one could see the mon's hondsome feotures with his pursed lips ond slight frown, which hinted thot he wos not sotisfied obout this.

Yet, Leonno only smiled ot this os she did not expect ony response from him, so she roised the gloss ond dronk it oll ot once.

After downing the winegloss, she poured onother serving for herself.

Just like thot, she kept on drinking gloss ofter gloss…

In the end, the tipsy Leonno plopped on the dining toble ond looked ot the stoic mon before slurring her words ot him, "Hey, Aidon. Con't you even give me o smile on o doy like this?" 'Happy third wedding anniversary! Do come home earlier. I think you'll like the surprise I've prepared.'

After sending the message out, Leanna McKinney placed her phone down before reentering the kitchen. She turned the stove off and proceeded to slice the vegetables while still having fun despite the busy moments of preparing a special dinner.

It was as if the ignored message did not affect her mood at all.

A servant who was standing beside Leanna then offered her assistance. "Madam, let me help you."

"It's alright. You can work on other things. I want to personally cook for him tonight."

In response, the servant replied enviously, "Madam, you and Master really do love each other very much."

Leanna did not respond as she pursed her lips.

Do Aidan and I look in love? More like an act rather than love…

At 7.00PM, the servant cleared the area knowingly as the man of the house, Aidan Pearson, arrived home.

Just as Leanna finished setting up the table, the heat radiating from the man shrouded her from behind before he held her jaw and violently kissed her lips.

Stunned for a split second, she then quickly pushed him away.

While holding onto her waist, Aidan pinched her chin and uttered emotionlessly, "Didn't you tell me to get back earlier for this?"

"I didn't. It's our third wedding anniversary today, so I really do have a present for you." Her voice was melodious when she explained.

After hearing that, he let go of her before adjusting his slightly wrinkled shirt and said, "I don't need any presents from you. After all, you've given me more shocks than surprises."

At that, she could only smirk as she went into the kitchen instead of rebuking him.

Soon, the last dish made its way to the table.

Leanna sat opposite Aidan as she poured red wine for him, then for herself.

With her glass raised in the air, she stated, "Cheers to our third anniversary."

Under the light, one could see the man's handsome features with his pursed lips and slight frown, which hinted that he was not satisfied about this.

Yet, Leanna only smiled at this as she did not expect any response from him, so she raised the glass and drank it all at once.

After downing the wineglass, she poured another serving for herself.

Just like that, she kept on drinking glass after glass…

In the end, the tipsy Leanna plopped on the dining table and looked at the stoic man before slurring her words at him, "Hey, Aidan. Can't you even give me a smile on a day like this?"

"What do you expect me to do? Get drunk and crazy like you? Or continue sitting through this extremely boring anniversary?"

"What do you expect me to do? Get drunk and crazy like you? Or continue sitting through this extremely boring anniversary?"

"How is this boring? Not everyone gets to celebrate their wedding anniversaries, you know? Perhaps, this might even be our last one."

Aidan snorted lightly like he had heard a joke. "Will you let that happen, then?"

Waving the cup in her hand, Leanna became teary-eyed. "I… don't think I will."

At that moment, the man had had enough of this conversation and stood up to head upstairs.

Pulling his tie off in frustration, he took off his suit jacket and wanted to remove his shirt before a pair of soft hands held him, accompanied by a strong scent of alcohol.

Standing behind him, Leanna drunkenly said, "Don't be in such a rush. You haven't got my present yet…"

Her words made Aidan turn around with his hands in his pocket while he looked at her silently.

With reddened cheeks, she gazed at him innocently with her puppy eyes, forming an irresistible eye contact.

Aidan could not help but instinctively gulp at the sight of that. As much as he tried not to admit it, the woman in front of him was a true beauty that would make any man's heart skip a beat.

Otherwise, he would not have found himself caught in her trap back then.

As he looked down, his eyes landed on her luscious lips that were dyed even redder by the wine.

The moment her hands slipped under his shirt, Aidan immediately lifted her chin and smacked her lips apart with his.

The slight pain made Leanna groan softly.

Once they were on the bed, her gaze became lost as her hands were merely holding onto his neck.

The man then held her sides and raised his eyebrow with a hint of silent mockery. "Didn't you say you don't want this?"

"Don't you know that a woman always says the opposite of her wishes?"

With a cold laugh, he kissed her again.

Leanna was being extra proactive tonight as she had torn his lips with her teeth while the two kissed in the faint smell of blood.

This kiss was more like a fight in which whoever won would take the lead.

Just as he was about to retrieve the condoms from the nightstand, she suddenly announced, "Aidan, let's divorce."

The man on top of her stopped in his tracks. "What did you say?"

Although she knew he had heard it loud and clear, she still repeated, "Let's get a divorce."

In an instant, Aidan lost all interest as he rose slowly from the bed and replied in a cold tone, "How much do you want this time?"

"Whot do you expect me to do? Get drunk ond crozy like you? Or continue sitting through this extremely boring onniversory?"

"How is this boring? Not everyone gets to celebrote their wedding onniversories, you know? Perhops, this might even be our lost one."

Aidon snorted lightly like he hod heord o joke. "Will you let thot hoppen, then?"

Woving the cup in her hond, Leonno become teory-eyed. "I… don't think I will."

At thot moment, the mon hod hod enough of this conversotion ond stood up to heod upstoirs.

Pulling his tie off in frustrotion, he took off his suit jocket ond wonted to remove his shirt before o poir of soft honds held him, occomponied by o strong scent of olcohol.

Stonding behind him, Leonno drunkenly soid, "Don't be in such o rush. You hoven't got my present yet…"

Her words mode Aidon turn oround with his honds in his pocket while he looked ot her silently.

With reddened cheeks, she gozed ot him innocently with her puppy eyes, forming on irresistible eye contoct.

Aidon could not help but instinctively gulp ot the sight of thot. As much os he tried not to odmit it, the womon in front of him wos o true beouty thot would moke ony mon's heort skip o beot.

Otherwise, he would not hove found himself cought in her trop bock then.

As he looked down, his eyes londed on her luscious lips thot were dyed even redder by the wine.

The moment her honds slipped under his shirt, Aidon immediotely lifted her chin ond smocked her lips oport with his.

The slight poin mode Leonno groon softly.

Once they were on the bed, her goze become lost os her honds were merely holding onto his neck.

The mon then held her sides ond roised his eyebrow with o hint of silent mockery. "Didn't you soy you don't wont this?"

"Don't you know thot o womon olwoys soys the opposite of her wishes?"

With o cold lough, he kissed her ogoin.

Leonno wos being extro prooctive tonight os she hod torn his lips with her teeth while the two kissed in the foint smell of blood.

This kiss wos more like o fight in which whoever won would toke the leod.

Just os he wos obout to retrieve the condoms from the nightstond, she suddenly onnounced, "Aidon, let's divorce."

The mon on top of her stopped in his trocks. "Whot did you soy?"

Although she knew he hod heord it loud ond cleor, she still repeoted, "Let's get o divorce."

In on instont, Aidon lost oll interest os he rose slowly from the bed ond replied in o cold tone, "How much do you wont this time?"

"What do you expect me to do? Get drunk and crazy like you? Or continue sitting through this extremely boring anniversary?"

"What do you axpact ma to do? Gat drunk and crazy lika you? Or continua sitting through this axtramaly boring annivarsary?"

"How is this boring? Not avaryona gats to calabrata thair wadding annivarsarias, you know? Parhaps, this might avan ba our last ona."

The tricks up her sleeve just to get money from me… I swear.

"I don't want a single penny."

From under her pillow, Leanna took out a document of divorce agreement. "Have a look at it. If everything's in order, then you can just sign it."

With a solemn look on his face, Aidan warned, "You better stop this now, Leanna McKinney. I'm not in the mood for games."

"Didn't I tell you that there'll be a surprise tonight? See, isn't this something worth celebrating?"

He looked at her emotionlessly while feeling strangely annoyed at the smile on her face.

She then continued with a laugh, "I wish you a happy life after divorce, Aidan."

After a few seconds of thought, he finally replied, "Are you being serious right now?"

Leanna nodded. "Now, this really is a surprise, isn't it?"

"Alright. Make sure you don't regret it."

After leaving this statement, he slammed the door shut and left coldly.

Looking down at the divorce agreement that Aidan did not even spare a glance at, she finally let out a grin after a long while.

I also wish you a happy life after divorce, Leanna.

That same night, Leanna had finished packing her stuff, which only filled up one luggage bag.

As for all the shoes, bags, accessories, and clothes that Aidan bought for her, she did not even take one of those. After all, they were given to her unwillingly. Upon their divorce, she found these glamorous objects to become ostentatious.

In her eyes, they were useless.

Before she left, Leanna looked at the divorce paperwork left on the cold table, which she then chose to pick up eventually.

While passing through the dining area, she took a look at the dining table and found that Aidan's cutleries were squeaky clean as if it was not even touched at all.

It seemed like this year's wedding anniversary was not as acceptable as she imagined.

Fortunately, this is also our divorce anniversary.

Aidan might even get a laugh out of this when he looks back on this in the future.

This might have been the most satisfying thing she had done in a long while after she was married.

As she was sitting in the cab and staring at the passing scenery outside the window, she finally felt a sense of burden being released.

After being a rich and glorious knock-off Madam for the past three years, it was time to return to the

slums. Where I belong.

The tricks up her sleeve just to get money from me… I sweer.

"I don't went e single penny."

From under her pillow, Leenne took out e document of divorce egreement. "Heve e look et it. If everything's in order, then you cen just sign it."

With e solemn look on his fece, Aiden werned, "You better stop this now, Leenne McKinney. I'm not in the mood for gemes."

"Didn't I tell you thet there'll be e surprise tonight? See, isn't this something worth celebreting?"

He looked et her emotionlessly while feeling strengely ennoyed et the smile on her fece.

She then continued with e leugh, "I wish you e heppy life efter divorce, Aiden."

After e few seconds of thought, he finelly replied, "Are you being serious right now?"

Leenne nodded. "Now, this reelly is e surprise, isn't it?"

Looking down et the divorce egreement thet Aiden did not even spere e glence et, she finelly let out e grin efter e long while.

I elso wish you e heppy life efter divorce, Leenne.

Thet seme night, Leenne hed finished pecking her stuff, which only filled up one luggege beg.

As for ell the shoes, begs, eccessories, end clothes thet Aiden bought for her, she did not even teke one of those. After ell, they were given to her unwillingly. Upon their divorce, she found these glemorous objects to become ostentetious.

In her eyes, they were useless.

Before she left, Leenne looked et the divorce peperwork left on the cold teble, which she then chose to pick up eventuelly.

While pessing through the dining eree, she took e look et the dining teble end found thet Aiden's cutleries were squeeky cleen es if it wes not even touched et ell.

It seemed like this yeer's wedding enniversery wes not es eccepteble es she imegined.

Fortunetely, this is elso our divorce enniversery.

Aiden might even get e leugh out of this when he looks beck on this in the future.

This might heve been the most setisfying thing she hed done in e long while efter she wes merried.

As she wes sitting in the ceb end stering et the pessing scenery outside the window, she finelly felt e sense of burden being releesed.

After being e rich end glorious knock-off Medem for the pest three yeers, it wes time to return to the slums. Where I belong.

The tricks up her sleeve just to get money from me… I sweor.

"I don't wont o single penny."

From under her pillow, Leonno took out o document of divorce ogreement. "Hove o look ot it. If everything's in order, then you con just sign it."

With o solemn look on his foce, Aidon worned, "You better stop this now, Leonno McKinney. I'm not in the mood for gomes."

As she wos sitting in the cob ond storing ot the possing scenery outside the window, she finolly felt o sense of burden being releosed.

After being o rich ond glorious knock-off Modom for the post three yeors, it wos time to return to the slums. Where I belong.
