I slammed the plate down on the table and said, "I want a divorce. I can't live like this anymore." Lucas Caspian reached for my hand hesitantly, only to let his head fall in the end. "Fine. I'll leave after Christmas Day. I won't hold you back any longer. I've got a divorce gift ready for you." Just then, the unborn second child in my womb started kicking wildly. [Mom, don't be so rash! Dad's phone was tampered with by the maid who's trying to seduce him and take your place.] [She knows Dad's eyes will heal next month, and those eyes will even be able to see through rough gemstones. He'll become a billionaire emerald tycoon in the future.] [If you divorce him now, you'll be tricked by that maid into working in a coal mine right after. She'll take Dad's Imperial Emerald and live as a wealthy lady in high society.] [Mom, look outside! What Dad prepared for you isn't a divorce gift, but a city-wide fireworks show!] I looked into Lucas's empty yet affectionate eyes, then turned around and held him tight, tears streaming down my face. "Honey, I was just joking. It's Christmas, so let's not say such unlucky things. I'll fight anyone who tries to tear us apart."
