The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 613

"Would you really do that?" Joanna’s eyes were wide and watery.

She never expected that Quinton would give her up for the sake of revenge, even though she would have done anything for him.

Of course she was hurt, but she knew he was only like this because of his past.

She couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.

"Quinton, I know you only said such things because you’re blinded by your hatred.

I won’t take it to heart.

Both you and I need a few days to calm down, and after that, I think we can find a solution." After that, she went downstairs alone.

"Ah, Phoenix..." When Haze saw her leave sadly, he sighed deeply.

He paused briefly, then went after her.

However, Joanna did not go far.

She went to the large pagoda tree in the yard and sat on the swing, swinging back and forth sadly.

The chilly night breeze caused flowers to fall off the tree one by one, and they stuck to her hair and lips.

It was a rather enchanting scene.

She then looked up at the starry sky and recalled her childhood.

Both her father and grandfather would sit on the rattan chairs playing chess, while her mother would pick fresh roses and peonies to put into a porcelain vase.

Cutie would walk around her mother’s feet, keeping her company.

Joanna felt like she could still hear her family’s happy laughter.

How did things turn out this way? "Dad, Mom, are you guys okay?" Joanna leaned her head against the rope of the swing as tears filled her eyes.

They slowly rolled down her cheeks as she sobbed.

"Did I make a mistake? I was only seeing things my way and wanted a perfect ending and reconciliation, but I never considered Quinton’s feelings.

Maybe deep down, I’m biased...’ "Yes, you are!’ Haze’s voice rang out suddenly from behind her.

He had been standing there and observing her for a long time.

At first, he did not want to disturb her private time, but when he heard her words, he was worried that she might blame herself.

Hence, he stepped forward to snap her out of her thoughts.

Even if she despised him, at least she would not be so sad or lonely.

"Haze, you pervert! Why were you eavesdropping on me?" Joanna quickly wiped away her tears and glared at him fiercely.

She couldn’t deny that she was angry at him.

If he hadn’t lured Quinton with his investment, Quinton might have still considered cooperating with Ace for the sake of profit.

If the two families ever decided to cooperate with each other, they would be in the same boat even if they did not earn money.

They wouldn’t be fighting all the time, and she would finally be at ease.

They bickered like an old couple, and eventually, Joanna’s mood improved.

She knew he was trying to make her happy, and smiled at him.

"Haze, to be honest, you’re not that bad when you’re not behaving like a scumbag... Thank you.’ Haze chuckled and flashed her a grin.

"You know, your compliments aren’t too bad either." They smiled at each other as if they were long-lost soulmates.

"Haze, do you really think I’m biased?" Joanna sighed, hoping Haze could help her analyze the situation from the view of a third person.

"Do you want to hear the truth?" Haze asked her, smiling faintly.

"Yes.It’s okay, you don’t have to worry about upsetting me.’ "Well, on the surface, you seem to be partial towards Quinton, but in actual fact, you’re more partial towards Ace..." Haze said contemplatively, then pursed his lips and said oddly, "But it’s normal.

After all, he’s your ex- husband, and of course lovestruck women like you would put your husbands above everything else!" "No, that’s not it! I just feel that Quinton is having a very hard time since he’s living with so much hatred and all he can think about is taking revenge.

What’s more, the Moran family won’t be an easy enemy.

If he keeps provoking them, he’ll get into trouble." "You’re not him, and you’ve never walked in his shoes.

What right do you have to ask him to let go of his grudges?" Haze raised his brows and said seriously, "If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to reconcile with my enemy so easily.

The business he worked hard for was ruined as well as his face.

You know, my family also has a rule of seeking revenge and never letting bygones be bygones.’ "Yes, you’re right but... My family was on friendly terms with the Moran family.

I feel that Grandpa, Dad, and Mom wouldn’t want to see us fight against them," Joanna admitted.

"That’s just an excuse!" Haze exclaimed.

"If the Moran family was on such good terms with the Pierce family, why didn’t they do anything when the Pierce family was facing trouble back then? When your family fell, the Moran family immediately replaced your family and became the head of The Great Eight of the City.

To be honest, I don’t think they were on very good terms with your family." "It was unexpected.

My family went bankrupt so fast, and nobody even had time to react.

I guess it was the same with the Moran family too.

It was already very hard for them since Ace was forced to marry me..." Joanna was not an ungrateful person.

She did not need the protection of the Moran family given her capabilities, but the Moran family had indirectly made a lot of enemies when they allied themselves with the Pierce family through Joanna and Ace’s marriage.

"You’re an exemplary person, so of course it would be their gain if Ace married you.

Back then, Grandpa immediately offered support to your family when he learned that they were in trouble.

He even forced me to marry you and protect you, but unfortunately, I had my heart set on Phoenix, so I missed the chance of being with you." When Haze thought about it, he felt like slapping himself.

He leaned closer to her, and said half-jokingly, "Do you think all this nonsense wouldn’t have happened if you married me instead back then? It would have been easy for us to crush the Moran family, and you wouldn’t have had conflict with your mother-in-law.

What’s more, those homewreckers wouldn’t have forced you to divorce your husband.’ "Maybe." Joanna looked at Haze thoughtfully and placed her hand on his cheek.

’You’re indeed handsome and come from a powerful background.

The most important thing is that we share the same trade.

We can compete against each other in writing codes too.

Sometimes I wondered if I would be happy if I married you instead back then?" "Well, it’s never too late... We can always start now,’ Haze said softly and lifted her chin.
