The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 395 - 391
"A delivery?"
Joanna was puzzled. Was it her marriage certificate? It’s done already?
But she gave Mr. Q the address of her apartment. It wouldn’t be sent to the Moran Villa.
She glanced at Ace, who was sitting on the sofa. She hesitated to speak.
She did now know how he would react if he saw the marriage certificate... Would he fly into a rage or would he remain expressionless? She suddenly found herself a bit curious.
"Why are you looking at me? Are you receiving something illegal?"
Ace tried probing her.
"Of course not. I’m a law-abiding citizen. I don’t have anything illegal."
"Then why do you look so guilty? What’s the delivery?"
"It’s none of your business. I have no obligation to tell you."
"Are you sure it’s none of my business?"
"Of course it’s none of your business!"
"Then don’t come looking for me afterwards."
The look on his handsome face was unreadable and his tone had hidden meanings.
Joanna thought he was behaving strangely, but she was too eager to see what Mr. Q looked like, so she ignored him.
The courier was waiting anxiously outside the gate. When he saw Joanna walking over, he waved at her warmly and gave her a small package. "Hi. This is your package. Please sign here."
"Okay, thank you."
Joanna checked the shipping address on the package. It was indeed sent from the Civil Affairs Bureau.
She turned around to leave, but the courier hastily stopped her.
"Wait! There’s a delivery for a Mr. Moran too. Can you please pass it to him?"
The courier handed another package to Joanna.
"A delivery for Ace?"
Joanna took it with a skeptical expression.
The two packages were about the same size, but Ace’s package did not have a shipping address, so it was impossible to tell who sent it.
"Whatever, it doesn’t concern me."
She suppressed her curiosity and shifted her attention away from Ace’s delivery.
She returned to the villa with the two packages.
"Here, you have a delivery too."
Joanna handed Ace his delivery.
"Thank you."
He casually put the package aside without any intention of opening it, as if he already knew what was inside. Instead, his full attention was on Joanna’s package.
Joanna was eager to open the package, but when she noticed Ace watching, she felt a bit guilty. She asked, "Why are you staring at me?"
"I want to see what your delivery is."
"That’s none of your business, you creep!"
Joanna glared at him and turned around to hide the package from his sight.
"You don’t even dare to let me see what it is? It must be something really important."
With a smile, Ace slowly got up, walked behind Joanna, and teased, "Or maybe I still have an important place in your heart, so whatever you do – even if it’s just opening a small package – you’re concerned about how I would feel?"
"Stop being so full of yourself. I stopped caring about your feelings a long time ago."
"Then what are you afraid of? Open it in front of me. It doesn’t contain anything illegal, right?"
Ace was both mischievous and unrelenting. "If it does, then I have even more reasons to know what’s inside. I live with you, so I don’t want it to get me into trouble."
"Fine, fine, you win."
Joanna could not stand him. She raised a hand and said, "If you really want to know what’s inside, then I won’t hide it from you. I just hope that you can remain calm after you see it and not fly into a rage."
Although she was not sure how Ace felt about her, she was certain that he wanted to remarry her.
She could already imagine the scene. He was confident that she would remarry him, but she got married with another man instead, and that man was his sworn enemy! He would surely go berserk!
In order to ensure her safety, Joanna could only mentally prepare him in advance.
"Don’t worry, I have a strong heart. I’ve been through all kinds of things. You should worry about yourself instead. Your emotions are too unstable. You lack the ability to handle sudden situations."
Ace commented unhurriedly.
"Nonsense!"
Joanna believed that her emotions were much more stable than Ace’s. She had no idea where he got his confidence from. How dare he make such arrogant remarks to her?
But it was not important. The important thing right now was to open the package!
She grabbed a fruit knife from the coffee table and cut open the package, her heart racing uncontrollably.
Inside the package was a familiar red booklet. It really was her marriage certificate!
"Is that some kind of document? It looks a bit familiar."
Ace checked out the content of the package from behind Joanna.
"Of course it looks familiar. You had one before..."
Joanna paused and said bravely, "This is my marriage certificate. I got married again."
The moment would come sooner or later. Rather than hiding it, she should just tell him and get it over with.
After that, whether he wanted to seek revenge or back down, she would have ways to deal with him.
"Marriage certificate?"
Ace raised his nice looking eyebrows. His reaction was not as intense as Joanna had anticipated. Instead, he said calmly, "I can’t believe you made a move that fast. I’m really curious, which man could tame a wild little cat like you?"
"Tame?!"
The term irritated Joanna. She turned back to stare at the man and said, "Ace, are women animals in your eyes? You think you should use techniques to tame a woman rather than investing your love and emotions in her?"
"Am I wrong?"
"Of course you are!"
The emotion in Joanna’s eyes turned from anger to sadness. "I guess you’ll never know what respect and love are, and you’ll never realize the true meaning of the term "husband and wife"."
"Although my new husband can’t be considered a good person with a clean background, he feels so much more alive than you are. He understands emotions, he understands respect, and he understands love. Marrying him is the best decision I’ve ever made in my life. I can already imagine how warm and happy our family life will be. That’s something that you can never provide for me or my children."
A criticism like that was a heavy blow to a man. It discredited his character and his dignity.
However, Ace was surprisingly calm. "Looks like you’ve found true love. Now I’m even more curious. Which man could give you true love?"
"It makes sense for you to be curious. I have no intention of hiding it from you. He’s..."
Joanna opened the marriage certificate. She was ready to come clean to Ace.
However, when she saw the wedding photo on the marriage certificate, her mind went blank!
