The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 541

In truth, Lucy's feelings for Hayden were a mix of love and resentment.

She loved Hayden.

Lucy, a classic Josonan beauty, had always longed for romance. But coming from a poor background, she chose stability over love and married a wealthy businessman, Aaron, despite having no feelings for him. Life as a rich wife was comfortable, and Aaron adored her, giving her everything she wanted.

Yet it still wasn't enough.

Then, she met Hayden, a college graduate who had returned home.

In that era, college graduates were rare. Hayden was a romantic intellectual who perfectly fit Lucy's idealized image of a man. She fell for him at first sight and soon tumbled headfirst into love.

However, Hayden didn't love her. To him, Lucy was nothing more than a free nanny. He married her only because Carly liked her.

Hayden married her to provide Carly with a suitable stepmother.
