EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 20

Austin watched as she drew closer and closer, a few unusual feelings swept through his heart. He originally thought Suny was going to do something, but she only stopped a stone's throw away from his face.

She didn't say anything, just looked at him so steadily.

Someone came in outside, Austin frowned and took a step back: "You can't seduce me, I've never been interested in you."

Suny withdrew and looked at him, tugging at the corner of her lips, "I really wasn't wrong when I said you were dreaming. Do you know what I was doing just now?"

Austin realized that the next words were not pleasant to hear, but still could not resist asking, "What?"

"I'm looking to see if the word 'shameless' is written on your face, or else how could you have acted in such a disgusting manner today."

After saying that, she sneered: "Austin, you need to understand one thing clearly, three years ago I like you does not mean that I still like you now. Three years ago, I wanted the married, and today, I wanted the divorce. You have to know that this thing of liking you ended when I said the word divorce."

"I've long said that after the divorce, we are strangers and can turn a complete blind eye to each other. I think I've always done a good job, but you, Austin, this narcissistic and baseless accusation of yours that makes me wonder even more if you've suddenly realized that you actually have feelings for me."

His face stiffened and he wanted to say something, but Suny had already turned around and gone back inside the Bishounen.

Austin turned to look at her back, his face growing darker.

Two seconds later, Austin also turned to leave.

Just as he got into the car, he took his phone out.

Ivan on the other end of the phone answered, "Mr. Johnson?"

"No need to talk about the cooperation of Nakasun."

When he finished, he simply hung up the phone.

Ivan looked down at the "call ended" on his phone, completely unaware of how Nakasun's people had offended Austin, and even the cooperation was failed after a meal.

Suny walked quickly all the way back to the hall, her anger making her face bright and high and cold.

Back in her seat, her anger had almost subsided and she glanced at Alicia: "Have you finished eating?"

Alicia, who felt an inexplicable surge of anger: "Yeah."

She clapped her hands together and turned sideways, "What did Austin do to piss you off like that?"

Suny didn't want to talk about it and shook her head, "Nothing."

Alicia had the good sense not to pursue the matter: "Don't be angry, don't be angry! Just now Jennifer left with a stiff face, it seems they didn't have a good talk either."

She was indeed exasperated by Austin, and now she was getting more and more bored listening to Alicia talking about Jennifer: "Okay."

Suny glanced at Erik, "Have you had enough?"

"Yes."

She had little desire to stay here any longer and picked up her bag, "I'll take you back then."

Alicia could see that she was not in a pretty mood, so she took a sip of her tea, glanced at the unfinished delicacies on the table, and then also picked up her bag and prepared to get up and leave.

The three of them ran into Ashley just after they had left Bishounen, Suny inclined her head to look at Alicia who was hiccuping beside her, "Well, now there's no need for me to take you back."

When she saw Ashley, Alicia leapt to his side and hugged him, completely devoid of any semblance of the image of a high-cold character.

Ashley held her in his arm with one hand, took the bag in Alicia's hand with the other and nodded as greeting to Suny.

Suny smiled: "OK, I'll leave her to you, her luggage is still in the trunk of my car."

Ashley asked, "Are you free next month?"

Suny raised her eyebrows, remembering the listing of Future Technology, "I'm not going, you can just go."

"All right."

The three of them have been friends for more than twenty years, so whether Suny's words were polite or serious, he could hear them as soon as he heard it, and Ashley didn't push it.

She was a major shareholder who was so low key and didn't like to run things.

Ashley took Alicia's suitcase from Erik's hand, and Celebrity Alicia who was already sitting inside the car waved her hand, "Suny, Erik is on you, love you!"

With that, she gave a flying kiss.

Suny gave her a sidelong glance, "Watch out for the paparazzi."

As soon as she said that, Alicia immediately raised the window and retracted the car.

This would have cost a lot of money if it was photographed by the paparazzi.

Alicia was picked up by Ashley, leaving Erik to her.

Suny fastened her seat belt: "Did Alicia arrange a dormitory for you?"

Erik shook his head, "No."

Suny rubbed her forehead, only to feel her head spinning, "You don't mind staying at my house first, do you?"

Erik on the passenger side sat up straighter subconsciously, "I don't mind."

His face was proper and cold, but his ears were quietly flushed.

Interesting.

Suny curled her lips into a smile and drove her car away from Bishouen.

It was already past three in the afternoon when she returned to the villa. She arranged for Erik to come to the guest room, explained how he could use M and drove out around four.

Last month, the company considered five startups and after an initial assessment, they only intended to invest in a company doing online shopping user development, but Suny personally was more optimistic about a company name "sin around".

Suny rarely showed up at the company, and since the company assessed that it was not going to go for corporate investment, she asked her secretary to give her the contact details of the uncompetitive founder, who she intended to talk to in person.

The appointment was at 4:30, and it was already 4:35 when Suny arrived.

Just as she entered the cafe, she saw a man in a suit sitting at the window.

The man was probably around twenty-five years old and better looking than his photograph.

She liked good-looking people, so she had good impression on him.

Suny walked over to sit down in front of the man, who seemed surprised: "Sorry, I have an appointment."

She smiled, "If you're Jay Shaw, then I guess I'm the one you've made an appointment with."

Jay looked at the gorgeous young woman in front of him with some incredulity, "Suny?"

"It's me, did I scare you?"

Seeing her smile, Jay's tension was less: "I just didn't expect that the legendary Suny would actually be so young and pretty."

Suny raised her eyebrows, "I took that as a compliment."

She said, her eyes falling to the proposal in front of him, "Mind if I take a look at it?"

"Of course no, it's for you."

The investors Jay had met recently were all middle-aged men in their forties and fifties, and it was the first time he had met an investor as young and beautiful as Suny, so he spoke with much more confidence than before.

Suny reached out and took the proposal that Jay handed over, "Hold on a moment, let me take a look."

In fact, she had read the proposal, and now she was looking at it again, just to see if there were any changes and to see how sincere Jay was.
