The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 670

They also loved to gossip about the heirs and heads of the families, and their heated discussions made the competition a hot topic on the internet.

Naturally, both Clara and Justin were watching the live broadcast on a laptop.

They had even planned a celebration party already.

"I was right—my bestie never loses," Clara said proudly as she recorded the competition on her phone.

"Yeah, she beat me in hacking every year back then.She was always first, and I was always second.She’s just so strong!"

Justin admired Joanna a lot, and it was so mind-boggling to him that she was great at everything except romantic relationships.

Meanwhile, Ace was still recuperating in bed.

He felt rather bored until Susan turned on the TV to watch the live broadcast of the kindergarten carnival.

When he saw Joanna and the children, he snorted disdainfully.

"I didn’t expect her to be married with kids..."

Susan glanced at him helplessly.

She yearned to tell him that Joanna was married to him and the children were his, but she eventually decided against it because the doctor said to avoid stimulating his mind before he fully recovered.

If she told him that Joanna was his wife and Adie and Abby were his children, it would be a fatal blow.

Things would get worse if his mind was affected, and he fell sick again.

"Yes, she’s a mother, so you’d better stop getting involved in her affairs."

Susan tried to persuade Ace, hoping he would give up on Joanna and not have any thoughts about her before he fully recovered.

"Who is the father of her children?"

Ace demanded coldly as he turned to Susan.

"How would I know? She won’t tell us about her private life, and we shouldn’t get involved in her affairs anyway,"

Susan replied vaguely, averting her gaze.

Ace turned back to the television, his contemplative gaze glued to the glowing screen.

"You’d better hurry up and marry Seraphina soon and have kids too," Susan quickly added.

At first, she was fine with Ace staying single as long as Joanna was willing to give up custody of one of her children so Ace could raise the child.

However, after that day, she could tell that it would never happen.She also couldn’t hire a lawyer to sue Joanna for it.

After much contemplation, she felt that it was more realistic for Ace to forget about his past and start a new life.

"Her having kids has nothing to do with me, and I don’t have to compete with her for it," Ace scoffed.

He did have thoughts about Joanna before this, but now...He put them all behind him after he realized that she had two children with another man.It made him feel like a fool.

"Mom, turn it off.It’s noisy, and I want to rest."

Ace closed his eyes as a strange sort of sadness consumed him.

"Okay, I’ll turn it off."

However, Susan wanted to see the children, so she watched the live show secretly on her phone after turning the TV off.

Unfortunately, something terrible happened at the carnival at that moment...

Joanna had climbed pretty high when she heard them announce that they were about to select the champion, and she suddenly felt the safety buckle behind her shake.It made her feel unsteady, like she was about to fall.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

The judge began to countdown, and everyone held their breath as they waited for the final result.

Unwilling to give up, Joanna gritted her teeth and kept on climbing speedily.

"Three, two, one.Okay, let’s congratulate Adie and Abby’s family for winning this carnival!"

The judge boomed, and everyone cheered.

However, before Joanna could turn to wave to Adie and Abby who cheered below, she found herself plummeting downwards.

"Ah!"

There were horrified screams and shouts from the crowd as they watched Joanna fall.

"Joanna!"

"Mommy!"

Quinton, Adie, and Abby frantically ran to where Joanna had fallen, but a security guard stopped them.

"Calm down and don’t move.We have safety precautions installed, so she’ll be fine."

The security guard announced to calm everyone down.

However, there was no doubt that Joanna would be hurt from such a fall even though there were sponges on the floor as a safety precaution.

"Get out of my way! If you delay me for even a second longer, I’ll make sure you pay for it,"

Quinton snarled furiously as he shoved the security guard aside and pushed through the crowd to get to Joanna.

Joanna was lying on the floor, unable to move.

Excruciating pain enveloped her entire body, and her face was pale.

"Joanna, are...you okay?" Quinton asked anxiously, not daring to move Joanna.

"I-I’m fine but I think I’ve broken some bones and sprained my waist...Don’t worry, they’re taking safety measures.I’ll be fine."

There was a thin layer of sweat on Joanna’s face, and she forced a smile onto her face so her family wouldn’t worry.

However, she was scared that she might be paralyzed.

"Are you hurt, Mommy? We wouldn’t have joined if we knew you’d get hurt!"

Abby wailed and touched Joanna’s face, afraid of hugging Joanna in case she would hurt her.

Adie wanted to demand an explanation from the organizers and lock them up in jail but was dissuaded by Quinton.

Everyone was troubled over Joanna’s condition.

After a while, the ambulance came.

The paramedics carried her to the stretcher and rushed her to the hospital where Ace was. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Susan had watched the whole competition, so she knew that Joanna was hurt.

She was worried about her, but didn’t inform Ace about the accident.

"Son, rest well.I’m going out,"

Susan said to Ace, who was lying in bed and resting with his eyes closed.

"Go ahead.You don’t have to stay with me all the time; I’ve got a professional caretaker," Ace replied indifferently without opening his eyes.

He would recover in a few days but Susan insisted that he stay in the hospital so they could take care of him.

To Ace, it was worse than being in jail.

Seraphina came after Susan left.

She approached Ace and asked gently, "Ace, how are you feeling? The weather is nice today.Do you want me to push you out for some fresh air?"
