EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 8

Suny had slept late last night and had two glasses of cocktails. The hangover was unbearable, but Alicia called early in the morning, so she didn't go back to sleep.

"What's the matter again, Celebrity Alicia?"

Suny had been under pressure in the Johnson family for a long time, and now that she had been unsealed, she was as restless as a beast that had just come out of its cage.

To be honest, Alicia should be glad that she was not around Suny.

"Did I wake you up?"

Suny rolled her eyes and rubbed her temples as she got up from the bed, "What’s up?"

"...... Your ex-husband is on the hot research, with that first love of his, and now the whole internet is talking about whether you two cheated on each other to get a peaceful divorce."

Suny was stunned for a moment, mostly awake: "He is my ex-husband, don’t mention him to me in the future."

Alicia on the other end of the phone rubbed her neck, "I was wrong, Suny, you go back to sleep, go back to sleep, I won't disturb you!"

With that, she hung up the phone as quickly as she could.

Suny tossed the phone onto the bed and dug her head back into the top of the pillow.

But Alicia's words were going back and forth in her head and she couldn't go back to sleep.

Suny was annoyed, "M, help me boil water."

"Yes, Master."

Suny stepped on her slippers and entered the bathroom. The person inside the mirror had messy hair and her skin was not in very good condition after the hangover, she looked at herself in the mirror and disliked it.

It was just a divorce, no need to be like this, Suny.

Half an hour later.

Suny looked at the gossip news via her phone, it was a bit self-deceiving that she felt nothing, but she had expected that there would be such a day, and now when she saw the news about Austin and Jennifer, she just felt a bit ridiculous.

She quit Weibo, since she was already divorced, then things like Austin dating Jennifer at midnight had nothing to do with her.

After breakfast, Suny put on make-up, changed into a long blue dress, drove the dusty Ferrari inside the garage and headed straight for Phantom.

Suny had come yesterday, when she went up, it was Kevin who brought her up, and when she came down, it was Alicia herself who brought her down, and the receptionist was respectful when she saw Suny.

"Miss Holland, here to see Alicia?"

Suny smiled, "Yeah, is she here?"

"Alicia has just arrived, I'll press the lift for you."

Suny nodded, "Thank you."

She looked at the respectful receptionist in front of her and remembered those two receptionists from KLOC the other day, Suny couldn't help but tug at the corners of her lips.

How badly Austin treated her to make the company receptionist despise her.

Why did she had to go approach Austin, and in the end, she had nothing but a divorce certificate.

The lift door opened with a ding.

Suny withdrew her thoughts, stepped out of the lift on her silver stiletto heels and walked straight to Alicia's office.

Joan was surprised to see her, "Miss Holland, what brings you here?"

"Come and see."

She smiled and pointed to the door of Alicia's office, "Can I go in?"

"Yeah, yeah, it's just Alicia in there all by herself. Please persuade her to keep a low profile, quite a few paparazzi have been watching her lately and it took me a lot of effort to get the incident last night squashed."

Suny nodded, "Thank for for your hard work, I will remind her."

Joan was one of the few people who know that Suny was the major shareholder behind Phantom and also knew the relationship between Alicia and her. Alicia was heartless and only Suny and Ashley could manage her, and Joan, the agent, could only deal with the troubles she made.

Now that Suny was willing to take care of it, Joan felt alive again, "It’s okay, Miss Holland."

Suny pushed the door into Alicia's office, the bright and shiny Celebrity Alicia was watching something with a tablet, the expression on her face was worthy of her title of movie queen.

"What are you watching?"

Suny sat down beside her and patted her crossed legs.

Alicia was watching the gossips news about Austin and Jennifer, so she didn't expect Suny to arrive, she was so excited: "I'm watching the gossips news about your ex-husband and his first love! It looks a bit touching."

Suny looked at her askance, "What did you say?"

Alicia felt a chill down her back and quickly changed her expression to a righteous one, "I say this scum and woman are really shameless. You just got divorced and they are together, are they deeply afraid that people won't know that they are in true love?"

Suny poured herself a cup of tea: "Is that enough?"

This time, Alicia was really scared, "I was wrong, I was wrong! To make up for my mistake, I've asked someone to get two tickets to Jennifer's exhibition, so you can go with Kevin! What's so great about Austin, isn't he just a man that you don't want? Kevin is much better than him."

Suny raised an eyebrow, "Say these words in front of Austin!"

Of course Alicia didn't dare, "We're all decent people, how ugly would it be to curse him in public, we have to curse him in the dark! Trust me, you take Kevin there, and I can be sure that public opinion will immediately fall on your side!"

"Come on! Don’t get Kevin involved, don't you see the comments Kevin's fans have left at the bottom recently!"

"You don't understand, Kevin is now going to transform into a powerhouse, something like girl fans is not a pity to loose it."

Suny almost believed it, "Tell me, what the hell are you up to again?"

"Ahem ...... I heard that Jennifer invited Austin as a special guest."

Suny gave her hand a beat and inclined her head, "Are you seeing me as a joke?"

Alicia flashed her eyes sheepishly and raised her hand on her shoulder: "You can't say that, think about what you've suffered in the Johnson family for the past three years! Wasn't it because Austin had turned a blind eye to it? Jennifer didn't just invite Austin, she also invited Grace and Austin's sister. The people outside said that after three years in the Johnson family, you ended up being less useful than an invitation from Jennifer."

Alicia's words reminded her of what happened two years ago, it was her twenty-fifth birthday and Alicia helped her throw a small birthday party, she had planned to confess to Austin at the party that she had a lot of money, but on that night, except for Alicia and the others, no one from the Johnson family came.

What was outrageous was that Tina had sent her a screenshot of a chat group that she had created, asking those who have received her invitation to go to her birthday party or not, the answer was invariably "no".

That screenshot went viral and the whole circle laughed at her for being insouciant, a bumpkin married into a rich family and now wanted to hold a birthday party like other rich ladies.

Old things occured to her mind, Suny converged her eyebrows, "It means nothing."

Alicia gave a tsk: "How so? Tina is Kevin's brainwashed fan, and that company of Jennifer contacted Kevin's agent some time ago, wanting to collaborate with Kevin on a painting exhibition. Two years ago you couldn't invite the Johnson family, and two years later they can't invite Kevin."

"Well - it's a bit exciting to think about it!"

Suny looked at her with a wry smile, "Awesome, now you even know how to set me up."

"I don't dare."

After half a second of silence, Alicia couldn't hold back, "So are you going or not?"

Suny took a sip of chrysanthemum tea: "Why not?"

She would like to see if Tina would be furious to know that her idol was with her.
