The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 586

Seraphina gritted her teeth and said, "Didn’t you hear what the employees call you? If this goes on, Ace will remember everything sooner or later, and it’ll be bad for his brain if that happens. We both know what he experienced a year ago and how painful it was for him.

He’s better now, but seeing you will probably affect him. Don’t you feel bad harming him again and again like this?"

"I... I didn’t think of that." Joanna lowered her head in shame after hearing that. Ace nearly died by her hand a year ago, so she swore to God that she would never get back with him in exchange for his safety and happiness.

However, even if she didn’t do anything, sometimes things developed beyond her

expectations. The grudge between Quinton and Ace was the perfect example-she was caught in the middle of it, so she couldn’t just stand aside and do nothing about it...

Seraphina sniffled, wiping tears from her eyes. "Miss Pierce, I’m sorry. I’m not trying to insult you, but my relationship with Ace hasn’t been easy. Our relationship has just

become a little stable, but now you’ve appeared in his life again. You know how much I love Ace, so I can’t just pretend that I don’t care."

Seraphina sounded very pitiful as she spoke, and finally bowed to Joanna apologetically. "I know it’s because of your generosity that I can be with Ace, so I do what you ask me to and be nice to him... but when you appear, he becomes uncontrollable, and I can’t get through to him at all. I’m so sorry."

Ace, who had just opened the door and walked out, happened to witness that scene.

Immediately, he walked over and stood in front of Seraphina protectively as he glared at Joanna. "What are you doing? Our negotiation is over, so why haven’t you left? Are you trying to bully my fiancee again?"

Joanna’s heart ached when she saw how concerned he was about Seraphina. Mr. Moran, you worry too much. This is your territory, so there’s no way I’d come

here to bully your fiancee. Unfortunately, she doesn’t feel secure in the relationship, and thinks that I’m trying to seduce you, so in short... You’re not treating her well enough, and are failing to show her how much you love her."

She reached out and patted his shoulder like an elder as she advised sincerely, "Be more lovey-dovey with Sera, she loves you very much. Don’t fancy wild thoughts and hurt her."

Joanna’s generosity made Seraphina feel inferior, so the latter kept her head bowed.

However, Ace’s face turned very gloomy. He hated it when she appeared so openminded and unaffected. His lip curled, and he stated coldly, "I don’t need an outsider like you to comment on my relationship with my fiancee."

"Alright then, I’ll leave you be. Goodbye." Smiling, Joanna waved at the two of them and left Moran group.

Seraphina held Ace’s arm and asked cautiously, "Ace, are you mad at me?"

"Of course not," Ace replied absent-mindedly, feeling frustrated.

"Many reporters are waiting outside, making a scene and asking for your explanation. The netizens even paint you as a demonic and bloodthirsty monster... If you’re uncomfortable giving an answer, my family can help you resolve this," Seraphina said earnestly, eager to please Ace.

"Just leave it for now."

"But it doesn’t look good for you. Everyone can tell that it’s because of the Night Demon. He’s Joanna’s brother, so it might have been Joanna who added fuel to the fire..."

"It’s not important." At the moment, he did not plan to make any counterattack since he had made a deal with Joanna to not take action for ten days.

Seraphina’s insecurities immediately worsened. She could tell that he did not want to make a counterattack because of Joanna, and thus, some wicked ideas started to form in her mind...

Joanna returned to Carmine Pawnshop from Moran group.

Quinton had a great time chatting with Liam, so he invited both Liam and Clara to stay for dinner.

Meanwhile, Joanna booked a flight ticket to Goldshire, the capital of Cyndiago, at ten o’clock that night.

A sumptuous dinner was served. Everyone chatted and ate happily, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

"Come, let’s toast! I hope we can all gather here for a good meal and fine wine every year from now on." Quinton raised his wine glass and proposed heartily.

"Cheers!" Everyone stood up and toasted. Even Adie and Abby raised their cups, not

wanting to be left out.

Since Quinton was in a good mood, Joanna leaned over to him and said softly, "Quinton, can you promise me something?"

Quinton smiled warmly at her. "Of course! You’re my sister, you can have whatever you want."

"I’m about to set off again..."

"What?" Quinton’s face immediately twisted with displeasure. "You just came back, so why the hell do you want to leave again? Is this about a guy?"

Both Adie and Abby became sad when they heard that too. They held Joanna’s hands and looked up at her pleadingly.

Abby whimpered, "Mommy, don’t go. Adie and Abby can’t bear to part with you."

Adie said, "Mommy, where are you going? I want to go too..."

Joanna touched their heads and explained gently, "Adie, Abby, be good. It’s just a short business trip. At most, I’ll only be gone a week. If I make it quick, I can come back in three to five days. You have to be good."

"Okay, Mommy. Well be good and wait for you to hurry home."

Only then did they sit down obediently to eat.

Joanna was not worried about her children misbehaving, she was worried about her brother misbehaving. Quinton was reckless, irritable, stubborn, and extreme, and he always did what he wanted to.

"Quinton, I want you to promise me not to provoke Ace again when I’m gone. He also

promised me that he won’t take revenge on you for ten days.

I hope the both of you can spend this time in peace."

Quinton’s expression turned colder. He put down his fork and asked, "Did you meet him?"

"Hmm." Joanna did not want to keep it a secret, so she nodded firmly. She hoped that he could understand her kind intentions.

"How naive!" Quinton smacked the table and sneered, "Do you know how hypocritical and horrible people can be? Do you actually think he’ll keep his word? A hypocrite like Ace has no feelings; he can just fool young, naive women like you."

"I believe that he wont lie to me," Joanna insisted.

"Don’t forget that he’s long forgotten about you. To him, you’re just his competitor’s sister, so why would he listen to you?" Quinton scoffed. "We ruined his reputation, and the shares of the Moran group have dropped drastically. Of course, a revengeful person like him will make a

counterattack. If I just sit by and do nothing, I’ll be doomed!"

"No, he won’t!" Joanna held Quinton’s hand and looked at him with a sincere and determined gaze. "Quinton, trust me this time. Let me do what I need to. If he breaks his promise, I’ll bear the consequences, and I’ll take revenge on him for you!"

Joanna’s eyes became watery, and Quinton found it hard to refuse her. Hence, he waved his hand dismissively and grumbled, "Fine, I’ll do as you say. I’m tired anyway, so at least I can get some rest during this time."
