The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 383 - 379

The two children woke up early. They had already gone around the Moran family’s residence.

They adapted much better than Joanna expected they would. Despite being in a completely unfamiliar environment, they were able to feel happy and at ease. Evidently, they behaved as if they owned the place.

"What are you two doing? Why didn’t you wake me up?" Joanna asked.

She realized they were standing on their tiptoes next to a yellow fruit tree while they looked up.

"Mommy, come here, quickly. Look, these four must be hungry. They keep chirping, and their mouths are wide open!" Abby quickly ran over to Joanna and tugged at her hand. She then pointed at the four fledglings in a nest. She seemed very worried.

Chirp! Chirp!

Four fledglings that recently hatched were chirping weakly in the nest.

They were too small to even open their eyes. Their mouths were all open while they waited for their mother to feed them.

"They’re probably hungry. Let’s find them something to eat!" Joanna couldn’t help but empathize with the chirping fledglings.

"But what do birds like to eat?" Adie asked calmly.

"Don’t they eat things like worms?"

Joanna retrieved her phone and started searching.

She’d never had a pet bird before. Now that she had to look after four of them, she was under immense pressure!

After going through several educational courses on keeping pet birds, she felt much more confident. She looked at Adie and Abby. "That’s right. Fledglings usually eat worms their mothers find. Let’s catch some worms!"

"Yay! We’re catching worms!" The kids raised their hands in excitement.

They grew up on an island, and they were very close to nature. They practically grew up in the wild. There was nothing they couldn’t do.

The Moran family’s mansion was large, and there were plants everywhere. The three of them caught many worms in a short period of time.

They returned to the yellow tree. Since the bird’s nest was quite a distance away from them, Joanna brought a ladder over.

"Abby, hand me the box. I’ll start feeding the birds," Joanna said after climbing up the ladder.

"Alright, Mommy. Here you go!" Abby exclaimed while standing on her tiptoes.

This was when Ace walked out. He looked curiously at them. "What are you doing?"

"Daddy, we’re feeding the birds. Come and look. They’re so cute when they eat!" Abby waved excitedly at him.

"Are you really feeding birds?" Ace couldn’t resist smiling. He quickly walked to the yellow tree.

Joanna grabbed a black caterpillar with a pair of forceps and fed it to one of the fledglings.

The fledgling opened its mouth and chirped in a satisfied manner.

Chirp! Chirp!

When the other fledglings saw this, they chirped even louder. They all moved closer to Joanna as if she was their mother.

"Hahaha! Don’t worry. You’ll each get some. We caught enough worms for everyone!" She exclaimed.

The longer Joanna looked at these fledglings, the more she found them adorable. It’s as if she was looking at her own children. Her motherly instincts were fully activated.

She looked forward to the moment they took to the air once their feathers were fully developed in a month!

"Joanna, what are you feeding them with?" Ace asked gently while he looked up at her from below.

"Huh?" Joanna turned around when she heard his voice.

Rays of sunlight that passed through gaps in the tree branches shone against his perfect face, casting a shadow behind him. He looked like the male lead from an anime. He was ridiculously good-looking.

"Daddy, we’re feeding them caterpillars. They love it!" Abby exclaimed with excitement. "Mommy caught these caterpillars with us..." She declared proudly.

"W-worms?" Ace gulped. He felt goosebumps all over his scalp.

Despite being fearless in general, he was terrified of soft, furry creatures, especially caterpillars. A single glance was enough to give him nightmares!

"That’s right. Daddy, do you like caterpillars? Would you like to catch some with us next time?" Abby eagerly extended an offer to Ace with her eyes opened wide.

"Haha! That’s fine!" Ace laughed awkwardly while he declined Abby’s invitation.

Adie sneered and gave him the side-eye. "Hmph! You’re a scaredy cat. Why is a grown man afraid of caterpillars?"

Ace felt offended. He tried to defend his ego. "Who says I’m afraid of those things? I’m just too busy for that."

As their father, he had to maintain his heroic image in front of them. There was no way he could let them find out he was actually afraid of tiny insects. Otherwise, it’d be downright embarrassing!

"I don’t believe you. You’re a scaredy cat who’s afraid of insects. You can’t protect Mommy or Abby. Mommy’s decision to leave you was the smartest one she’s ever made!" Adie crossed his arms while he criticized Ace. He wasn’t holding back.

Ace had never felt this humiliated. To make matters worse, the person humiliating him was his own son.

"Listen up, kid. I’m more than capable of protecting the three of you. I used to train in the wild. You weren’t even born when I wrestled a tiger with my bare hands!"

"Wrestling a tiger with your bare hands? Don’t you think that’s too big a bluff?" Adie continued insulting him without fearing the consequences. "You wrestled a tiger with your bare hands, but you can’t even catch insects. Indirectly, that means you’re inferior to insects. How can you even say you’re able to protect the three of us? This is the biggest joke I’ve ever heard!"

"I already told you. I’m not afraid of insects..." He just found those soft, furry creatures to be very disgusting.

"If you’re not afraid of them, why don’t you pick them up with forceps like Mommy and feed them to the fledglings? If you do it, I’ll believe you!"

Adie made it impossible for Ace to refuse.

Ace secretly thought to himself, ’Like father, like son! You’re just as evil as I am!’

"Hahaha!" Joanna burst into laughter when she saw Ace being forced into a corner by Adie.

"Ace, Adie’s right. If you have what it takes, come and feed these fledglings. If you can’t do it, you’ll have to admit that you’re a coward!" Joanna exclaimed in an attempt to further provoke him.

Ace felt deeply embarrassed. "Joanna, you’re going to be in trouble
