The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 392 - 388

"Well..."

Adie rubbed his chin and seemed to be in a dilemma. "Q has his strong points, but Bad Daddy has his values too. It’s such a difficult choice."

"I know!"

Abby raised her hands high and said with sparkling eyes, "Since Q Daddy and Bad Daddy are both pretty good, why not just accept both of them, Mommy? One can take care of the cooking and household chores for you, while the other can take care of your business. You can marry Bad Daddy first, then marry Q Daddy, and then you’ll have both!"

"That’s right. Abby’s proposal is very good. I agree with what she said."

Adie also raised his hands high in support.

He was very pleased to hear his sweet, foolish little sister finally say something clever for once..

"Ugh. You two have such daring thoughts..."

Realizing that the two children were serious, Joanna did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Neither Mr. Q nor Ace was an easy opponent to deal with. One was enough of a headache for her. Both of them? She might not get to live long enough to "enjoy" them!

Moreover, Mr. Q and Ace were mortal enemies. If the two of them met... Joanna did not even dare to imagine how that would go down.

"If you really have to choose one between the two of them, who would you choose, Mommy?"

Adie threw the question back at Joanna.

"I..."

Joanna realized that the one week time limit was fast approaching. She would have to make a decision soon.

"Don’t worry, you’ll find out soon enough."

She looked upstairs to where Ace was while touching her ring finger. There was no longer a ring there to restrain her. It meant that she was free to live her life however she wanted.

She could follow her heart and choose anyone she wanted!

Ace and Susan were arguing in the bedroom on the second floor.

"I can deal with Joanna myself. I don’t need you to get involved. If you really want what’s good for me, please leave immediately!"

He stood in front of the French window, looking out at the lush plants in the garden. His face was icy and he was very annoyed.

Yes, he had feelings for Joanna, but not enough to make him humble himself to that extent, and definitely not enough to let Susan and the entire Moran family humble themselves.

Susan could not help feeling angry. She snorted coldly. "You think I want to get involved? The problem is, if I don’t, you can’t handle it! Can you make her name reappear in our household registration book?"

"With your iceberg-like personality and rigid brain, I might have to wait until my next life to see you change her mind!"

"I know asking you to marry into the Pierce family is a big blow to your ego, but as long as you and Joanna become husband and wife and your children carry the Moran bloodline, what does it matter? It’s the 21st century. Stop being so hung up on tradition."

Ace looked at Susan incredulously. "Mom, are you for real? Do you really want me to marry into the Pierce family and take their family name?"

"Of course! As long as you and Joanna get married again, everything else doesn’t matter."

Susan said generously.

Ace could not accept it. "I thought you were just putting on an act. Are you really gonna "cast out" your only son? If Dad and Grandpa find out about this, they’ll break my leg."

Susan patted Ace on the shoulder and said, "Don’t worry, son. Your father and grandfather will do no such thing because they were actually the ones who proposed it. I couldn’t accept it at first, but they convinced me that as long as you can reconcile with Joanna and live a happy life, everything else isn’t as important."

Ace: "..."

"Son, listen to me, you don’t have to feel any mental burden. Joanna will definitely take good care of you after you marry into the Pierce family. She won’t abandon you ever again. Isn’t that what you’ve always dreamed of? As long as you can make peace with yourself, your dreams will come true."

Ace: "..."

"Say no more. Come downstairs with me and tell Joanna that you’re willing to marry into the Pierce family and make her take responsibility for you. After years of ups and downs, it’s finally time for the two of you to have a happy ending."

Ace facepalmed and said, "You’ve all gone mad!"

"Son, times have changed. Stop hesitating. When you meet someone good, give it your all to fight for them. You’ve already lost her for four years. Think back on how you’ve lived in those four years, how much pain you’ve been through. Do you really want to keep suffering?"

Susan let out a long sigh, her eyes filled with pain.

She was a proud person, and the Moran family was a prestigious family. Of course she did not want her only son to marry into another house or her grandchildren to take another surname.

But she saw how much her son had suffered for the past four years. He was like a walking corpse. She no longer wanted to see him go through that kind of pain.

Ego and family pride were nothing in front of her son’s happiness. She, and everyone in the Moran family, wanted nothing more than to see Ace happy!

"Mom, you’re overthinking it. Joanna Pierce isn’t that important to me. Who said I must reconcile with her? The reason I’m treating her politely is purely because she’s the mother of my children. If she doesn’t know what’s good for her, then we’ll flip the table and show her the might of the Moran family!"

Ace pretended to be nonchalant. He even said some ruthless words.

"You damn brat, still lying to yourself. You..."

Before Susan could finish speaking, Joanna knocked on the door and walked in. "Sorry, the door wasn’t closed, so I just walked in."

She had obviously caught the conversation between the mother and son just now and had heard how Ace truly felt about her.

Susan smiled awkwardly and gave Ace a punch on the arm. "My good daughter-in-law, you know how he is. That was just his pride talking. Please don’t believe him or be mad at him."

Joanna gave her a little smile and said, "Don’t worry, I’m not mad. I actually feel the same way. The only reason we remain polite with each other is because of the children. It would be great if we can find a peaceful resolution, but if that’s not possible, then we’ll go to war. It makes sense to me."

"There’s no need to go that far."

Susan was really anxious.

They were so close to reconciling just now. Why did the atmosphere become so tense again?

"You said that as long as he’s willing to marry into the Pierce family, you’ll reconcile with him. Does your word still count?"

Susan asked Joanna.

Joanna knew that Ace would never agree, so she laughed and said, "Of course. I would be lucky to gain such a good househusband."

"That’s great."

Susan glared at Ace and urged, "You fool, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and agree!"
