The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 321 - 318
Joanna didn’t say anything. She didn’t agree, but she made no denial either.
"Hahaha! Alright. You don’t have to answer me. I know what you’re thinking. Just listen to me and do as I say." Ethan was determined to be the nice guy and go all the way. He decided he would try one last time to help this proud couple out.
If it still didn’t work this time, he’d stop caring!
Back in the barbecue area, Ace and Seraphina were roasting skewers.
As a result of them sharing the same birthday, they also had a similar outlook on life, and the two had always been close. One could even go as far as to say they were best friends.
However, Ace merely thought of Seraphina as a friend. Seraphina, on the other hand, started developing romantic feelings for him when puberty hit.
Just as Seraphina was about to confess her feelings for Ace, he and Joanna suddenly had a flash marriage. Their wedding took the entire the City by surprise.
Feeling bitter about her feelings that were not reciprocated, she decided to study abroad.
A couple years back, she found out that Ace and Joanna had gotten divorced. The incident gave her the courage to return to the country, where she would pursue Ace.
She spent as much time as she could around Ace, gradually making him accustomed to her, trust her, and depend on her... She was getting ready to confess her feelings.
In the end, Joanna came back.
It was obvious how much Seraphina hated Joanna. Joanna was practically the thorn in the flesh for her.
This proved Joanna’s hypothesis. She wasn’t overthinking because of her own internal bias...
Unfortunately, these simple-minded men couldn’t sense this at all.
"Ace, how’s it going between you and your ex-wife? You’re not planning to get back together, are you?" Seraphina asked carefully while she
brushed oil against a skewer. She tried to make her question sound casual.
Ace pursed his lips. He didn’t seem too chirpy, and he was flipping the skewers without being fully present. "We’ve never been together. How do we get back together?"
"That’s true. You didn’t marry out of love anyway. So many years were wasted. It’s so unfair to you. Besides..." Seraphina stared at Ethan and Joanna, who were whispering to each other. "I think your ex- wife is a bitch. Although you two don’t have feelings for each other, you were once husband and wife. Why does she seem so close to Ethan? What is she even thinking? Does she even care about your feelings? I’m so upset... I want to beat her up!’
Ace glanced at Joanna. He flipped the skewers even more impatiently." We’re all free to do whatever we want. I don’t care what she does."
"But Ethan and Shirley are still a couple. Doesn’t that make your ex-wife the third wheel in their relationship? Even if she’s not doing you wrong, it’s not right for Shirley. This isn’t morally acceptable... No way. I can’t control my temper. I need to teach her a lesson!"
Seraphina rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go to war.
This was when Joanna and Ethan started walking toward them.
"How’s the barbecue going? Do you need our help?" Ethan asked with a chuckle.
"You two..." Ace noticed how close Joanna and Ethan seemed when they stood next to each other. "You two seem to be getting along!"
Ethan felt a little awkward. He felt the need to do some explaining.
Joanna, on the other hand, nodded proudly. "Of course. Ethan and I shared significant life experiences together and a similar outlook on life. We also have the same hobbies. Of course, we get along well!"
"..." Ace’s gaze turned cold. He pursed his lips and remained silent.
Seraphina hopped onto her feet and pointed at Joanna. ’Miss Pierce, even if I end up offending you, there are things I have to say. We’re both women. We may be heartless, but there are still limits to what we should do. Don’t you think you’re being a bitch? You bring shame to all women!’
"Oh, why say so?’ Joanna nearly laughed.
Seraphina was really good at this game. Joanna hadn’t even exposed her for being pretentious, and she already took the first move to defame Joanna.
Just as she thought... Seraphina was as tough a woman as she was smart!
"You and Ethan were being too intimate just now. I don’t care what your relationship with him is. If you’re a couple, where does that leave Ace?
"Also, did you know that Ethan already has a girlfriend? If you get romantically involved with him, that makes you the third wheel!" Seraphina exclaimed in a righteous tone.
"Seraphina, actually...’ Ethan felt Seraphina was being a little too harsh. He wanted to clarify things.
However, Joanna didn’t seem bothered. "I wonder what makes you think Ethan and I are romantically involved with each other.’
"That’s nonsense. You two seemed so close to each other. Your shoulders were joined, and your faces were practically touching. I won’t believe for a second that you’re not a couple!’ Seraphina intentionally used a masculine tone to defame Joanna. Other people couldn’t even point out her own mistake.
Ace continued to flip the skewers while he spoke. "Just admit it if it’s true. Don’t bother hiding it.’
Joanna calmly wrapped her arm around Ethan’s shoulder. "Who says we’re a couple? We’re the best of friends. Got it?"
Seraphina sneered. "Best of friends? Men and women can’t possibly be best friends. Your body language says it all...’
"Is that so?" Joanna’s gaze landed on Seraphina.
At that time, Seraphina’s body was very close to Ace. They seemed very intimate.
Joanna chuckled. "If that’s the case, you must be romantically involved with my ex-husband too. From the looks of your body language, you two are even closer than Ethan and I!’
"N-Nonsense!" Seraphina didn’t expect to shoot herself in the foot. Her cheeks turned red. "Ace and I are like siblings. How can you even compare us to you?"
"Well, I can also say that Ethan and I are good friends. What’s so different about that?"
"You..." Seraphina was suddenly at a loss for words.
She thought Joanna was a weak young princess from a fallen family and ought to be easy to deal with.
After the incident today, Seraphina realized that she’d underestimated her enemy. In fact, she ended up putting herself in a passive state.
Feeling helpless, she acted like a tomboy by punching Ace twice. ’ Ace, your ex-wife is being unreasonable. I can’t mess with her!"
"Don’t even bother trying to argue with her," Ace said coldly.
