The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 426 - 422

The hint of loneliness in Ace’s deep eyes was like a sparkler that extinguished itself after the splendor.

"I know, I’m a boring person. I’m cold and unromantic. I only have work in my mind and don’t sweet talk. I can’t bring emotions to you, so... You’re tired of me and want to get away from me, don’t you?"

Ace lowered his head. He spoke like he was very aggrieved, with a soft and gentle voice and pitiful eyes.

"Just look at you. Here we go again. When have I ever gotten tired of you?"

"Aren’t we getting along well? Can you stop finding fault every day?" Joanna said to him impatiently, like a scumbag who played with his feelings.

"I’m not finding fault. I’m just trying to solve the problem. I sensed something wrong with your emotions..."

Ace took Joanna’s hand with firm yet affectionate eyes. He said, "I don’t want us to have any misunderstandings again. If you think I’m not good enough, I’ll change, okay?"

"There’s nothing wrong with you. You’re doing very well."

Joanna was inexplicably irritated and said in an annoyed tone, "And you’re good at it. You can take me high while flying a plane tens of thousands of meters above the sky. Aren’t you very romantic and experienced in this?"

She really wanted to ask him, but she couldn’t bring herself to do so. Had he taken someone else on this wild ride in the sky? Who else did he share the excitement with?

First and foremost, she did not want him to realize how jealous she could be. Besides, she was really afraid to hear unwanted answers from him.

Therefore, she had no choice but to bottle her feelings. She was angry at herself and took it out on Ace!

"I’m not experienced. I’m just willing to put in the effort to make you happy..."

Ace failed to grasp the sarcasm in Joanna’s reply. He naively thought she was sincerely praising him and instantly turned happy. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Ace put his arms around her shoulder and leaned closer. He pressed his lips against her ear and spoke in a deep and seductive voice, "To tell the truth, I listened to the doctor’s advice and learned a couple of positions for couples. I also let Ethan teach me his best romantic skills. The high-altitude experience on the plane was just an appetizer. The next few days at Sun Island are the real feast which will definitely satisfy you."

"Y-You’re crazy!"

Joanna’s cheeks flushed instantly. She could not take it anymore and broke away from Ace’s restraints like a little snake.

She accused, "Ace, you don’t have to act innocent here. You say you’re inexperienced, but... You must have been very experienced!"

Ace was confused. "Act innocent? What are you talking about?"

"You’re still pretending. You should know it!"

"I really don’t know. Have you misunderstood me?"

Ace realized that the problem was worse than he thought and got serious. He held Joanna’s slender shoulders and said solemnly, "Tell me. What happened? If there’s a problem, we’ll solve it together. I don’t want the same to happen like four years ago. We’ve already wasted four years because of miscommunication."

Joanna calmed down upon hearing Ace’s words.

Joanna looked into his eyes and said, "Okay then. Promise me. No matter what I ask you, you will answer me honestly."

"I promise you. Whatever you ask me, I will answer truthfully. I will never deceive you."

Ace put his index and middle fingers together and looked at her earnestly. He swore sincerely, "I swear!"

Joanna mustered up her courage to question him. She stammered, "Y-you... How many other women have you taken on this plane? How many other women have you flown with?"

It was so embarrassing that her face turned adorably red.

"Huh?" Ace froze. He thought there was something very wrong, like... His heart was racing. He even thought Joanna must’ve discovered something sacrilegious or the truth that he was actually Mr. Q.

It turned out to be this? That was it?!

"What ’huh?’ Answer me!"

Joanna could tell from Ace’s reaction. He must have brought plenty of women on this plane to have fun. As she thought of that, a sourness rose in her heart.

"I knew it. Few rich men are honest. The rich kids like to party on the yacht or pool, while you... You’re amazing. You party on the plane instead. I reckon you must have invited plenty of women on this plane before, right?"

"No, I..."

"You don’t need to explain anymore. I don’t blame anyone. From the moment I chose you, I was destined to get cheated. I knew it was coming. I knew you were unreliable, but I still went along with you. I deserve it!"

"No, wait. Dear, listen to me. You..."

"It’s fine. You don’t need to explain. I can understand. Men are animals that think with their lower bodies. You look like an abstinent man, but you’re not really one. Just tell me the truth. How many women have you slept with? You..."

"Enough!" Ace could not stand Joanna’s incessant chatter. He quickly covered her mouth with his big palm and said in a cold voice, "Can you please listen to me?"

"Hmph..." Joanna glared at Ace with pitiful eyes. It was heartbreaking to see her with watery and red eyes while stubbornly looking at him.

"Okay, okay. Don’t cry. Listen to me. Actually, I..."

Ace took a deep breath and whispered in her ear, "Actually, you’ve always been the only one I had."

"Hm?!" Joanna widened her teary eyes in surprise. It sounded surreal to her.

What did Ace just say? She had always been his only one?!

Ace was the coolest man in the city and the president of Moran Group. Did she actually take Ace’s first time without knowing it?

"For most men, it’s not something to brag about. It’s a little humiliating too. But for me, I’m blessed to have you. I want you to be my only woman," Ace said affectionately.

After that, he gently removed his hand from covering her mouth. "Now, what else do you want to ask?"

If Joanna hadn’t asked this question so bluntly, he would rather hide it from her all his life.

Ace did not want to seem inexperienced with her. What if she was unhappy and disliked his lack of experience? If she wanted another partner, what should he do?

"I... I..." Joanna felt slightly awkward and did not dare to meet the man’s eyes.

’Tsk,’ Joanna thought about how she took Ace’s first time and felt shy.

Ace could not help but feel worried. "It can’t be. Do you dislike me? Are you planning to replace me?"

"Huh? Dislike what?"

"Dislike how I only have you and not much experience?"

Ace said in all seriousness as if he was waiting for customer feedback. In his opinion, the intimate actions between men and women were the same as business. The more experience he had, the smoother the negotiation would be. Ace felt disadvantaged by his lack of experience and had no idea how satisfied Joanna was about doing business with him.
