OH PLEASE, MY EX-WIFE

As Edward Smith finishes speaking, Alice Roberts at the other end feels the impulse to drop her eyes. The beating of her heart is very clear, and all of a sudden so very distinct and powerful. Memories of the past appear before her eyes; the first time he tells himself that he would build a company that would belong to them both, named SA. He had done that exactly, and now the original small company has evolved into SA Group. But now, she is not that Alice Roberts who had stood by his side.

---

In a press that the President of SA Group, Edward Smith, himself convenes, he unilaterally announces that he will terminate his engagement with Joanna Hale. Even though it is clearly stated that there will be a compensation, the well-known Hale family is still not satisfied. In particular Mayor George Hale, who after seeing the press on TV, throws his water cup on the floor, and angrily cries out Edward Smith's name.

Think of this dignified Mayor who' daughter is actually dumped by the fiance! What a shame!

"Dad". Joanna Hale said from his side.

"You're not going to interfere in this matter. I'll make Edward Smith regret choosing Alice Roberts." She says as she gnashes her teeth.

"From the start, I told you not to let her go. You didn't listen, and now she has Edward Smith's heart again. He's not a good man, are you going to continue loving him?" George Hale says, his voice full of resent. He gives his daughter whatever she wants, but she fell in love with a loathsome guy who is unmoved by force or persuasion. With a mind focused on business, SA Group was established, but he never saw him as mayor. He really must teach this boy a lesson.

"Dad!" Joanna Hale cries out as she stomps her feet. She can see the ferocity in her father's eyes. "I like Edward Smith, and I don't want you to touch him. Alice Roberts needs to be dealt with, if it wasn't for her, Edward Smith would have married me." "Alright, whatever you want. Don't forget that you are the daughter of George Hale. If someone mistreats you, you let me know, and I will deal with them." George Hale, who has always babied Joanna Hale, replies. This implicates that he will not forgive easily if Edward Smith dares to mistreat her.

"Dad, you're so good to me." Joanna Hale says as she came forward and loops her arm through his, inadvertently acting spoiled. Her eyes are joyous yet displaying viciousness. Just you wait, Alice Roberts!

The press convened by Edward Smith clarifies much, and even though he doesn't openly say who it is, many journalists still managed to dig out lots of inside information. Alice Roberts doesn't dare come out of her room for a few days, fearing that someone will recognize her.

Fortunately, staying at home all day has not made Albert and Rebecca Roberts suspicious. They even go so far as to coax her into being happy, making her feel grateful. This makes her think that hiding is not an option. It would have been better if she were by herself, but with two cute children, she has to find a job and earn money. So after resting for two days, Alice Roberts sees that outside, the situation has lessened. The bored reporters who came to investigate, have found out nothing about her. So feeling relieved, she starts going to other hospitals for interviews.

She is not only a doctor from abroad, but also one of the few doctors who specialize in Andrology. After going to the City Affiliated Hospital, she hands over her personal information before immediately getting an interview. Alice Roberts is then personally interviewed by the Head of the Andrology department, who asks her certain professional questions regarding Andrology. Her replies are good, and with her excellent resume, the head of the Andrology Department is very satisfied. He directly informs her that she can start working the very next day.

"Thank you, thank you." She replies.

"We welcome excellent doctors like you. I hope you perform well in the future." The head of the Andrology department says with a smile as he shakes Alice Robert's hand. "Of course."

Easily getting a job, has put her in a good mood. As she passes the hospital hall, she hears the young nurses talking about Edward Smith's confession at the press. Except a slight pause in her pace, she expresses calmness. She is moved, but is still able to distinguish reality from imagination. She will not trust any man again. Not when her family is at stake. Who knows what malicious women like Joanna Hall and Janet Louis will do.

After she returns to her apartment, she hangs up three calls made from Edward Smith. She then goes into the kitchen, and as she cooks lunch for her two babies, she hums a song. The two little ones sitting in the living room look at the mobile phone vibrating on the table. They then look at each other, one with a delightful expression, and the other shaking his head.

"Resistance really is the driving force."

"Men always regret when they've lost."

"Ah." The two sigh in unison, as a chubby little hand stretches towards the phone. His hand falls on the red hang up key, and soon the vibration stops.

Meanwhile, Edward Smith of SA Group, looks at his mobile phone with a heavy gaze. His eyebrows twist as he thinks about how Alice Robert refuses to answer his call. Just as he is about to call again, his phone rings. He notices that it is his mother. "Mom."

"Do you still know that I'm your mother? You convened a press to break off your engagement with Joanna Hall, but didn't you think to first discuss this with me? What were you thinking? Are you still hung up on that slut, Alice Roberts? That woman has already betrayed you by marrying another man and having a child. Don't you care at all...?"

At the other end of the line, Janet Louis sounds agitated. Her voice is so loud that Edward Smith frowns.

"I don't care who she's been with for the past five years, I just want her now. I don't want anyone but her."

"You! You really driving me mad!"

"If there's nothing else, then let's leave it at that." Edward Smith says as he intends to hang up the phone. At the other end of the line, Janet Louis then calls out, "Wait a minute."NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

"I'm listening."

"Come with me to the Hale Family this weekend."

"No."

Janet Louis, who is sitting in her living room, is so angry that she wants to smash her mobile phone. But she restrains her anger, and coldly replies, "You have to go, even if you don't want to. We cannot offend the Hale family like that. You convened a conference like this, so you must go and apologize to Joanna Hale. Tell her you were just confused and..."

Janet Louis suddenly hears a busy signal sound, causing her to scream Edward Smith's name. Looking at the mobile phone, she notices that he really did hang up on her. Janet Louis's face changes beyond anger. What she was most afraid of, has already happened.
