Outside is a man in his 60s, and she thinks, "Who is this person? I don't know him."
 
 
She quickly interrupts her thoughts, smiles at the older man, and says, "Good morning, yes, I'm awake. What do you need?"
 
 
Butler Ling is shocked to see madame smiling at him and soon recovers from the shock, "Madame, I'm sorry to bother you, but Mr. Chen asked me to inform you that he had to go to the company to handle an urgent situation. He sent you a message on your phone and would like you to respond as soon as possible."
 
Yang Liu is stunned when she hears that name "Mr. Chen? Han Chen? Like in the book 'Sweethearts Forever'? The father of Han Wei the third protagonist, the father who is richer than the main character?"
 
I need to clarify this. She continues smiling, "Oh, okay, I'll respond to my husband now, but I'd like to know if my stepson Han Wei has gone to school yet."
 
 
The butler smiles, "No, the young master is still sleeping, madame."
 
 
She thanks him and goes back into the room. As she closes the door, she collapses on the floor and starts whispering, "I can't believe it, this is the book 'Sweethearts Forever', and I've become the stepmother of my favorite character?"
 
 
She screams internally, "But wait, Han Chen and I in the book signed the divorce shortly after getting married, right? "What's the date today?"
 
She starts looking around the room and finally sees a bag on the armchair. She picks up the bag and find the cell phone of the original Yan Liu inside. She turns it on and checks the calendar.
 January 7th
Exactly 1 year until the divorce.
 
She stops for a moment when she sees this and sighs, "The book never explained why they got divorced, it only mentioned that Han Chen had made an agreement with Yang Liu, and by signing the divorce, he had fulfilled his promise."
 
 
Yang Liu suddenly starts laughing and can't stop, "The best part is that he is rich."
 
 
Yang Liu has always been someone who accepts reality quickly. After weighing the pros and cons, she decides to stay in the marriage and then sign the divorce agreement at the end of the year. "After all, it's just about enjoying 1 year of being married to a handsome and rich 35-year-old man. Who wouldn't want that?
"I'll just treat Han Chen and Han Wei as friends or in a boss-employee relationship, help them with whatever they need, and not get emotionally involved. In the end, I'll walk away from the divorce with a full bank account, hahaha."
 She can't stop laughing, "Finally, a bit of luck in this life. At least I still have the same face, I won't have to get used to a different look".

She starts making plans in her mind of what to do next. "Since it looks like they got married yesterday based on the date on the marriage certificate, I won't have to adapt and pretend to be someone else, as in the book it said he was only helping her, right?" So does that mean they're not close?"

She sighs with relief "Perfect, it would be better if they didn't know each other well, so I can be myself."
 
At that moment, her phone vibrates, showing an incoming call from "Han Chen?"
 
She trembles at seeing that name, takes a deep breath, and answers the phone.
 
A deep, charming voice of a mature man says,
 
"Hello, Yang Liu?"
