Oh Please, My Ex-wife novel Chapter 74

"No, if there is any, I would ask for help already." Julie gives Alice a frustrated face. She wants to help Alice more than anyone.

"Julie, thank you."

Alice knows the answer deep down before she asks. Compares with the clinic, Alice is more nervous about her mother's condition. She can’t go see her who is being controlled by Joanna now. What can she do?

After Julie leaves, Alice starts checking her phone. There are many missed calls, all from one person, Edward.

Before, she tried to avoid him in every way. Now will she ask for help from him?

In this city, it seems that he is the only one that can help her against the Mayor…

But once she asks help from him, can she leave him again? Can he let her go anymore?

————

Against the dazzling sun, Alice looks at the golden characters of "SA International Company" in front of her. She can't help taking a deep breath.

After struggling for the whole day, she comes here.

She knows that she can call him, but she doesn’t know what to say in the phone, especially after what she says in the villa. Will he help her?

Alice doesn’t know the answer. After all, it was her who divorced him five years ago, and it is also her who asks for a clean break after five years.

It seems that in this case, the so-called ex-husband won't want to help, or maybe even wants to make it worse?

Alice rubs her hands to ease the tension in her heart. She does not go up. She is afraid that she may meet Joanna or the beautiful woman in the elevator.

She counts the time deliberately. After about an hour or so, Edward finally comes out.

She bites her lips and stands in front of him, "Have a second?"

Edward stops and looks at Alice with his black eyes, says, "No." Then he turns and walks towards his car.

Next second, a white, thin hand grabs the corner of his clothes. She says in a low voice, "You are the only one can help me..."

Before she comes, she guesses that there may be such a situation. Still it really makes her hurt when she sees him being so cold. Yes, she doesn’t want to watch her mom suffer. Only he can help her. So she comes and begs him.

He is right that she will come back to beg him.

"Do I have to say yes every time you ask for help?"

Alice's face turns pale. The she hears Edward continues, "Will you continue to avoid me and leave after I help you?"

Alice bites her lip, " No, I, I won't."

"No? Not for a while, or never?" Edward smiles with sarcasm.

"We are already divorced." Alice says slowly.

"Yes, we are divorced." Edward repeats her words, which makes Alice's cheeks blushed, as if she has been slapped.

She reminds him every time with such words, but now it is his turn…

"If, if you can help me, I won't run away from you again." Alice bites her lip and spits out these words.

His eyes get dim then he approaches her, says in a deep and sexy voice, “Is it all what I want? You know the answer. Now continue what left in the villa."

Alice's cheek turns red. It shows up in her mind what he did in the villa to her. Her ears get so red as if they are dripping blood.

She wants to leave him before, but it turns out to be like this.
