Alex Sutton's breakup with his ex-girlfriend, Emily Lane, was a total disaster. She slapped him in front of everyone and called him a loser and a broke-ass. At that moment, I was sitting at the next table, sipping my coffee, and honestly, all she cared about was money. She was mad that Alex couldn't come up with 62 thousand dollars for the wedding gift, and he couldn't afford to buy a house and put her name on the property ownership certificate. So, as a local from Riverside City, owning several rental properties and not caring about the wedding gift, I made my move. I went over and offered to start a relationship with him. After that, Alex and I got married. With his smarts, well-received education and my financial backing, he rose to become Mr. Sutton, the boss, in only seven years, and his company was worth over 100 million dollars. But today, while I was holding my baby and feeding her, Alex's secretary suddenly sent me a message, which was that Alex had hired his ex-girlfriend as his secretary's assistant.
