The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 437 - 433

"What the hell???"

Clara was staring at the leg of lamb and salivating wildly when she heard what Ethan said. It was so sudden that it stunned her.

"I still remember the bold words you said on the speedboat. I, Ethan, have rarely been impressed with anyone, especially women, but after hearing what you said, I’m completely impressed. Don’t let me down now."

"What bold words? I say lots of bold words all the time. You can’t expect me to remember all of them."

Clara feigned ignorance and said, "Wow, the leg of lamb looks so good..."

"It’s okay if you don’t remember because I do. I can remind you. You said you would show him your skills with a knife, you said you would castrate him and turn him into a eunuch, you said you would force him to his knees to apologize, etc..."

Ethan crossed his long legs and said mischievously. He kept fanning the flames, trying to turn the situation chaotic.

"D-Did I say that?"

Clara shrunk back. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Yes, she was indeed determined to fight Ace to the death when she was on the speedboat, but after seeing Ace’s dignified and proud demeanor, her attitude immediately softened. She was the one who almost ended up kneeling.

"What are you guys talking about? You two are acting so weird."

While slicing the roasted leg of lamb, Joanna smelled something funny in the air. It smelled like the scent of... a budding love relationship?

That’s great! They held the welcoming feast to set those two up in the first place!

Joanna bumped Ace’s leg and commanded, "Ace, don’t just sit there and wait to be served. Do your duty as a host. Give a toast to my bestie and your bro and wish them a long-lasting relationship... I mean long-lasting health and vitality!"

"Yes, honey!"

Ace, like a good husband that he was, did as Joanna ordered. He poured a glass of champagne each for Clara and Ethan and spoke with a rare enthusiasm, "A toast for you two on behalf of my wife and myself."

Ethan joked, "Bro, this isn’t a business meal. Stop being so formal. You don’t even hold liquor that well. Leave the drinking to me and Clara."

After saying that, he touched Clara’s glass with his and said with a smile, "I heard you can hold your liquor. I happen to be a good drinker myself. Let’s have a drinking contest tonight."

Clara turned her head away in refusal. "I’m not gonna have a drinking contest with a playboy."

"I see. You must be really eager to perform, then."

Ethan told Ace seriously, "Bro, Clara has a performance she wants to show you..."

"Since destiny has brought us together on this fateful day, there’s no need for words. Let’s speak with our drinks."

Clara immediately had a change in attitude. She downed her champagne in one go.

Ethan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Our little Clara is indeed a very flexible woman. I’m impressed."

Clara Blackwood felt more and more interesting to him.

She would say the fiercest words and then act in the most cowardly manner. He found her quite adorable.

"Ace!"

"One more glass! Another one!"

And so, the two of them got into a drinking contest. Clara was determined to make Ethan collapse to get her revenge.

Ace, Joanna, Adie, and Abby stared at them, dumbfounded.

Ace: "Your bestie drinks as much as you do."

Joanna: "Your buddy can’t even beat a woman at drinking."

Abby: "Are they dating?"

Adie: "I don’t know, but they’ve definitely gone mad."

As she got more drunk, Clara’s behavior became increasingly rowdy and unrestrained. Joanna felt like things were developing in the wrong direction.

’This won’t do. If this goes on, they’ll become buddies instead of lovers!’

In truth, the reason Clara had remained single for so many years was because of her boisterous personality. She was really thick when it came to love affairs. She ended up treating everyone who confessed to her or showed interest in her as her buddy.

This time, Joanna would not leave her be.

"Simply drinking like this is boring. Why don’t we play the Three Gardens game?"

Joanna reached out to stop Clara and Ethan from drinking and proposed eagerly.

"That’s a kid’s game. Boring!"

Clara and Ethan surprisingly had the same opinion. They both expressed no interest in the game.

"How can you say my wife’s proposal is boring?"

Ace’s expression turned cold. He threatened, "You’ll play the game and you’ll like it."

"Alright, alright, we’ll play it."

Clara and Ethan once again acted in unison. They both succumbed to Ace’s pressure.

Clara secretly complained to Ethan, "Is Ace possessed? He’s completely turned into a henpecked husband. It’s scary."

Ethan was unperturbed. "Nah. Deep down, my bro is actually a hopeless romantic. It took him a lot of effort to act like an iceberg in the past."

Joanna clapped her hands and said, "Okay, let’s start. I visited the Three Gardens on Wednesday. Today, we visited the – Fruit Garden!"

Ace: "Watermelon."

Clara: "Peach."

Abby: "Strawberry." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Adie: "Apple."

Ethan: "Banana."

After one round, Abby could not think of a fruit in time and lost the game. She had to perform a dance.

"Let’s keep going!"

Joanna eagerly hosted the game. Everyone had lost at least once except for Ace. He remained lossless until the end.

"Well, this drinking game isn’t too hard. I haven’t taken a sip of champagne yet."

Ace said somewhat smugly. He seemed to have forgotten the embarrassment of losing hard in a drinking game and becoming so drunk that he could not even recognize his own mother.

"How arrogant!"

Ethan grinned and said, "Bro, I’ll decide the topic this time. Let’s see how smug you are after this."

"Anything’s fine. My vocabulary is rich enough to handle the likes of you."

Ace was confident.

"Okay..."

Ethan held back a smile and said, " I visited the Three Gardens on Wednesday. Today, we visited the – Exes Garden!"

Ace: "..."

Joanna: "..."

Clara: "..."

To no one’s surprise, Ace was the first to lose. He had to accept a punishment from the questioner.

"You win this time, you brat."

Ace’s cold eyes were like daggers. He issued a warning with a smile that did not reach his eyes, "You better not overdo it."

"You can’t threaten the questioner, or I’ll ask for reinforcement."

Ethan sent an SOS signal to Joanna.

Ace immediately relented. "Okay. How do you want to punish me?"

"Don’t be nervous, bro. I value our brotherhood very much, so I won’t do anything too terrible to you. I just want to have a casual conversation with you..."

Ethan then asked, "Answer truthfully – what is your biggest fear?"
