The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 434 - 430

Clara was struck speechless.

She remained quiet and motionless as if she had been petrified.

Ethan walked to Ace, looking at the charming, lovey-dovey couple in front of him. Strangely, his handsome and bright face seemed solemn and gloomy. With a sentimental vibe, he whined, "Ace, you sure are awesome. I just went on a trip, but you guys turned hostility to love and made up with each other. As expected... no matter how skillful one is, one is no better than a talented person like you."

Ace was so gripped in a state of deep love that he acted as if he was Eros. He was not as cold and distant as he was before. On the contrary, his whole being radiated with the light of love and peace.

"B*stard, stop teasing me. It’s all because of my deep sincerity that she changed her mind. Keep this in mind. Sincerely is the key to love!"

After he said that, he hugged Ethan with one arm and whispered in his heart, "Clara is kind and magnanimous. She’s much more reliable than that woman called Shirley. You should grab hold of this chance and don’t make me lose face in front of my wife."

Ethan raised his brows in enlightenment. "So, that’s why you and Joanna went to so much trouble waiting for me here?"

"What tone is that? Are you dissatisfied?"

Ace knitted his brows deeply and said in a commanding presence, "My wife is exceptionally charming and excellent. Of course, her bestie can’t be any worse. Don’t tell me you despise her, huh?"

"No, I don’t. It’s just that I didn’t expect that you obey your wife so. You force me, the first kiss*ss in the city, to admit defeat."

Ethan was greatly amused by his buddy, who was so obedient toward his wife.

Hence, he inevitably threw Joanna an admiring look. He then smiled faintly and stated, "Joanna, as expected, your charm is boundless. I’m sure no men in this world can resist that..."

"Thank you. Stop flattering me. I was too young and inexperienced, so I was tricked by your buddy. Now we even have two kids. I might as well make do with it."

Joanna waved her hands. Although she appeared reluctant, she could not hide the joy and gentleness in her eyes.

"Since you’d just make do with it, why didn’t you make do with me instead?"

Ethan broke into a frivolous smile, and his charming eyes became quite bewitching as he said ambiguously, "I made a bet with Ace four years ago, and you were nearly mine..."

"Oh?"

Joanna immediately became curious as she immediately asked, "What kind of bet was that? Tell me."

However, Ace maintained a cold expression and warned Ethan grumpily. "It happened so long ago, so there’s no need to mention it. Don’t forget that you’re talking about your buddy’s wife."

"Pfft! Ace, calm down. I told you I’m not Chris. Of course, I know that my friend’s wife can’t be coveted. I just feel a little regret..."

Ethan laughed in a carefree but wicked manner, but the deep sadness in his eyes was unmistakable. "When you went missing four years ago, I made a bet with Ace. If I had found you before him, I would forget the so-called friendship and boldly pursue you. Unfortunately, I wasn’t lucky. I thought I found you, but I got an ill-fated relationship instead...

"I always tell myself how nice it would be if the one I found at the underground casino in Water Dock back then were you!"

"Er..."

For a moment, Joanna felt slightly awkward because she did not know what kind of response she should make.

She and Ethan were good friends. Their friendship was extremely precious. However, his sudden ambiguous speech made things very awkward.

As a result, Ace’s face became gloomy. "I told you. She’s your buddy’s wife. Stop your nonsense!"

He knew that Ethan was frivolous and playful. Ethan always changed girlfriends, not to mention his unceasing appetite for flirting with any woman he came across.

However, he knew very well that Ethan was never sincere, especially when he flirted with women at will.

The only time that he was serious was when it was Shirley.

Coincidentally, Shirley had a face very much similar to Joanna’s. Hence, Ace could not help but worry...

"Bro, why are you so nervous?"

Ethan’s lips curled into a mischievous smile. He remained as unpredictable as ever. "You’re the one who invited me here, so shouldn’t you at least show some confidence?"

The two men were locked in an invisible battle. The atmosphere became weirdly tense.

"Can you two... act normally?"

Joanna gulped and suggested cautiously.

Ethan’s beautiful eyes immediately curled into crescent moons as he beamed at Ace. He patted Ace’s shoulder and said, "Haha, just kidding. Look how scared Ace is. He’s worried that his wife would run away with someone else..."

"Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. This island is beautiful! I want to look around!"

He ran a few steps, then suddenly stopped and came back because he remembered something. He told Ace, "Umm... Miss Blackwood has something important to say to you, Ace. Be mentally prepared, okay? Make sure you tighten your belt."

"Tighten my belt?!"

Joanna was confused. "What the hell? Ethan, explain yourself..."

However, Ethan had already skipped away.

All this while, Clara had been pouting at the dock. She was unwilling to take a single step forward. She even had the urge to turn around and leave.

"Why is she just standing there?"

Ace wondered coldly.

He did not know much about Clara Blackwood. He vaguely remembered hearing someone mention that she was once the biggest fan of him and Joanna, but when he divorced Joanna, she turned into his biggest hater. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Wait... it was Ethan who told him that.

Because Ethan was a behemoth in the Aeos entertainment industry and knew a lot of paparazzi and media, he once came across Clara’s gossip posts which recorded her process of turning from a fan into a hater in detail.

Therefore, it made sense that Clara would... dislike him.

"It’s okay. She might find it hard to accept now, but I’ll explain it to her. You can go keep Ethan company."

Joanna knew her good friend very well. She could understand Clara reacting badly to her decision.

"Okay. I’m counting on you, honey. These two people are so much hassle to deal with. We must succeed, or I’d feel uneasy."

Ace cuddled with Joanna for a bit before parting with her reluctantly.

Seeing this, Clara became even more infuriated. She gritted her teeth and tried to leave.

Unfortunately, the speedboat had already departed.

She could only turn her back on Joanna with a frown. She was furious.

"Clara, oh Clara, please don’t be mad!"

Joanna hugged Clara from behind and said coquettishly, "I know, it’s my fault. Will you forgive me? You’re the best..."

"Save it!"

Clara pouted. She originally wanted to keep giving Joanna the cold shoulder, but she relented only after a few minutes. She turned around, held Joanna’s beautiful face in her hands, and said angrily, "You better have a good explanation for this, or I’ll... I’ll jump into the sea and make you live out the rest of your life in regret!"
