The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 479 - 477

Joanna took a sip of her grape milk tea, then sighed. "Well, it would be rude if I didn’t see it then, right?"

"Prepare yourself. It may be a little heartbreaking," Quinton said mysteriously.

Joanna could not help but roll her eyes. "Enough with the dramatics, brother. Hurry up, or I’m going to fall asleep."

"You lazy pig. You sleep so much every day! I guarantee you’ll suffer from insomnia after watching this," Quinton scoffed and sent a video to Joanna.

Joanna casually clicked on it. However, the second the video started, she froze and clenched her fists subconsciously.

After a few minutes, Quinton asked, "Well, have you finished?"

Joanna said indifferently, "I finished it."

"You finished it?" Quinton was slightly surprised and asked eagerly, "So, how do you feel?"

"I don’t feel anything," Joanna replied calmly.

"No way! How can you not feel anything? I’m usually unemotional, but even I felt touched seeing it. Shouldn’t you be feeling something more?" Quinton urged.

When Joanna didn’t respond, Quinton let out a long sigh. "I was quite surprised too. Ace is such a brave man, willing to give up his heart for Miss Murphy like that. Isn’t that the same as giving up his life? It seems like he really loves her. He seems like the kind that would go crazy for love, doesn’t he? If I were his family, I’d kill him!"

Joanna suddenly realised something, and asked nervously, "You didn’t do anything to his heart, did you?"

"How can I? I promised you I’d spare his life. It was just to scare him, sister dearest. I wanted to know who he had in his heart, and this was the result!" Quinton gritted his teeth, feeling furious. "Turns out that he’s really in love with Miss Murphy, the cheating scumbag. If you hadn’t insisted on saving him, I would’ve chopped him up and fed him to the fish."

"It doesn’t matter anymore." Joanna looked at the blue sea and shrugged indifferently.

"How are you not affected by this?" Quinton asked curiously.

"Should I be crying as if he abandoned me?" Joanna scoffed.

"If you really didn’t feel anything, why haven’t you returned? What are you afraid of?" Quinton demanded.

"I..." Joanna paused, unsure of what to say. "I’m just tired. I want to relax and spend more time with my kids – it has nothing to do with him."

"I hope so!" Quinton stopped smiling and turned serious. "The Moran family will definitely retaliate. They’ll join forces with the Murphy family and take their revenge. We don’t have much time left. I need you... and so does our family."

Quinton frowned. "I sent you this video to tell you that Ace doesn’t love you. He loves another woman, so it would be cowardly for you to avoid returning to the City because of him! I won’t comment further; just come back quickly. At least let me meet my niece and nephew."

Joanna bit her lip and said in a low voice, "I understand."

After the call ended, Ethan and Clara returned from playing in the sea, laughing as they carried Adie and Abby

"Mommy, look – Uncle Stuart took us to a treasure cove today! We caught a lot of fish and colourful starfish! Aren’t they beautiful?" Abby was carrying a small bucket, her round face flushed like a red apple.

"Look, Mommy! It’s a colourful starfish! Isn’t it beautiful?" The little girl took the starfish by its two arms and excitedly showed it to Joanna.

"Yeah, it’s so pretty." Joanna forced a smile, looking distracted.

Little Abby put down the colorful starfish and hugged Joanna tightly. She looked up and asked worriedly, "Mommy, what’s wrong? Are you unhappy? Did someone hurt you?"

"No. I’m happy. You’re amazing, Abby. Did you collect many good things?" Joanna tried her best to keep her spirits up and share her children’s joy. Unfortunately, her depression was like a dark cloud in the sky – it was so obvious that Adie, Ethan, and Clara felt it too.

"joan, what’s wrong?" Clara put down the bucket full of fish and took Joanna’s hand. She asked worriedly, "Is it him again? Did he profess his love to another person? Give me your phone. I’ll call and scold him!"

Not long ago, Ace officially announced that Seraphina was his current girlfriend. Even though the group had been on the isolated Sun Island, they heard the news right away. One could only imagine Joanna’s tremendous disappointment and pain. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

If Ethan had not stopped Clara, she would have returned to the City and beat the crap out of Ace!

"It’s not him. I’m fine. I’m happy here." Joanna forced a grin, but it looked worse than her crying.

"Why are you still so stubborn? It must be him! Don’t try to protect him. That jerk has hurt you over and over again. He’s nothing but a bully!" Clara got even angrier after saying that. She grabbed Joanna’s

phone, ready to teach Ace a lesson.

Ethan felt bad for Ace and said weakly, "He probably has his reasons. Ace is a loyal man, he won’t change his mind for no reason."

"Oh, do men need a reason to change their hearts? He probably got tired of the relationship. Maybe he’s bored of an independent woman like Joanna, so he’s trying to flatter someone else. Didn’t you see the official announcement video? Did someone point a gun at him and force him to show his love for her?" Clara demanded.

"Uhm, well, about that..." Ethan looked away.

"Well? Am I wrong? The facts are clear. Ace is just a huge jerk who has been cheating on Joanna repeatedly. I say he should be punished and humiliated for what he’s done!"

Unable to handle Clara’s wrath, Ethan raised his hands in surrender and backed off. "You’re right. I’m sorry."

Ethan and Clara had always been at odds, but they got along better after taking care of Adie and Abby together. Sometimes, they understood each other like they knew each other for years, but they would quickly fight and argue whenever Ace was involved.

"Are you really sorry? Go on then, give him a call." Clara handed the phone to Ethan, her eyes narrowed. "He’s your good friend, isn’t he? Give him a good scolding and show me your loyalty."

"Are you sure? Isn’t it inappropriate?" Ethan wanted to bury a hole in the sand and disappear. He added softly, "Besides, I haven’t been able to reach his phone. I don’t know where he’s gone."

"Excuses! You’re either a coward or a cheating scumbag like him!" Clara burst out furiously.

"No way, I’m not like him. I’m better than him. He has yet to do better," Ethan defended himself quickly.

Joanna had been silent the whole time, but when she saw the two arguing, she interrupted them, "Stop fighting. We’ll go back now, so you both can scold him in person."
