Love Mission: Ex-wife Strikes Back

There was a time in Julia's childhood when Mandy would always secretly buy a cake for Jean soon after Julia's birthday. Mandy cried several times after she was caught in the act. She never bought cakes again after Lionel scolded her.

Back then, Julia had always wondered why Mandy did this. She just thought that Mandy was partial to Jean. Now that she knew more, she realized that was Mandy's way of celebrating her own daughter's birthday.

Terence's face grew distant. Although he was physically sitting next to Jean, his mind had already drifted somewhere else.
