EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 58

When Elijah's phone call came, Austin was in a meeting.

When he saw the caller ID, he hung up the phone without even thinking about it.

He was over thirty years old, but Elijah was still as childish as before, calling whenever something came up.

However, Elijah was not tired of it, calling over and over again.

Austin’s face went cold, and he took a glance at Ivan, by that, Ivan felt a chill down his back. He thought there was something wrong with the new proposal, so he asked cautiously, "Mr. Johnson?"

Austin picked up his mobile phone, "Pause for a moment, I'll take a call."

Ivan breathed a sigh of relief and gestured, pausing the meeting for now.

The large conference room was instantly quiet, Austin took his phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window: "Do you not want the sports car anymore?"

Elijah had his eye on a limited edition sports car in his garage, and he came to Austin asking for it day after day.

Austin was so tired of him that he agreed to have the car given to him, and only then did he stop that shameless "harassment".

Austin was waiting for Elijah to say something, so he would take the car back and hang up the phone, so that he could see his anger.

But to his surprise, the words Elijah threw out already made him more than just angry.

"You say that again?"

"I said, I'm at the Jia Yun sales department, Suny is buying a house with her boyfriend!"

Austin thought he had heard wrong at first, yet this time, he heard it clearly.

In an instant, his entire body stiffened, his expressionless face growing colder and colder, "When did she have a boyfriend?"

He tried desperately to keep his wits about him, but his hand almost crushed the new phone he had just bought.

"Ashley from Future Technology!"

At the same time, Elijah, who was tipped off at the side, saw Ashley walking out with Suny, and he subconsciously turned sideways, with his back to the two of them.

Suny swept a faint glance at Elijah, not caring, she withdrew her eyes to look at Ashley: "Next, to buy a ring?"

In fact, she felt that she was a bit redundant today, Ashley obviously already had an idea, yet he still asked her out.

Ashley put the purchase contract away and nodded his head, "Okay."

Elijah froze, then said to Austin: "...... they are now ready to go to buy the ring, Austin, if you still do nothing, you can really cry drinking."

Austin's face was dark and sullen: "Follow them and see where they go!"

"What about you?"

The only response to Elijah's call was the sound of the call being hung up.

Elijah glanced down at his hung-up call, "......"

Suny had known Ashley and Alicia since they were children, when they were young Ashley was not very talkative and had a cold and icy look, Alicia's personality was the complete opposite of his, Suny never thought they would come together.

When Alicia and Ashley got together, she even reminded Alicia that Ashley's personality was not suitable to be her boyfriend, and that their friendship was all made up of Alicia's bullshit.

Ashley was too cold, and with his parents' strong influence on him, Suny was once worried that Ashley would be a domestic abuser.

However, after all these years, Alicia was well protected by them, and he was not at all like he was with others.

Now that he was getting married, Ashley was ready for anything.

He said that he would let her accompany him to pick out a style, but the ring was also specially designed by someone according to Alicia's size and preferred style.

Suny could tell right away that the ring was tailor-made for Alicia by Ashley, and she gave him a smiling look, "You brought me out today to deliberately stimulate me, didn't you?"

"No."

He inclined his head and gave her a look, "Alicia has no family left, she has always treated you like a sister, I know what you have been worried about, I just brought you out today to tell you that I put her in my heart, you don't have to worry. If one day I treat her badly, you can always take her away."

Suny was stunned for a moment, then looked at him and laughed.

Ashley also smiled and took the ring wrapped by the clerk, "Join me for lunch?"

Suny smiled and shook her head, "I'm afraid that if we eat together, the surprise probably won't work."

Although there were fewer paparazzi staring at her these days, there were still people who were keeping eyes on her.

The two of them were buying a house and picking out a ring, so if they had dinner together again, she might be labeled as Ashley's girlfriend again.

"Can I take you back?"

"No, I'll go shopping on my own."

Ashley didn't say anything else, he nodded his head and left by himself first.

Suny glanced at his back and saw Ashley leave the shop before she turned her head to look at the clerk: "Any single rings?"

The clerk was obviously stunned, probably not expecting such a beautiful woman to be single.

But thinking that the ring Ashley had just bought was quite a lot of money, and that the person in front of her was a friend of his and was probably a generous person, so the clerk quickly responded and led Suny to the side to introduce her.

Suny had a whim, when she got married to Austin, the ring was of a very simple style, and she didn't know who had picked it out, but she had been wearing it for three years as if it was a treasure, only a few months before the divorce she found it in the cupboard in her room, Austin's ring had been sitting there.

If the villa hadn't been cleaned regularly, she would have suspected that the ring would have been sealed in dust.

"Miss, you can take a look at this one, it's simple and generous, this has camellia flowers on it, it suits your temperament."

Suny followed the clerk's line of sight and looked over, the diamonds on that ring rest glittered under the light.

It was indeed quite pretty.

She glanced at the price, over thirty thousand.

Luckily, she had the money.

She swiped her card and paid.

Suny left straight away with the ring on, intending to find a restaurant nearby for lunch.

"Are you in such a hurry to get married?"

A familiar male voice came, and as soon as Suny looked up, she saw Austin standing in front of her with a cold and stern face.

She frowned, "Does this have anything to do with you?"

Austin only felt a prick in his heart, uncomfortable, his breath wouldn't go up, blocking his throat, making it difficult for him to swallow.

He said with difficulty: "Don't you love me?"

Suny looked at him, her face cool: "Loved."

Austin stiffened for a moment, his eyes falling on her hand, the ring was so dazzling that he didn't even notice that it was on his tail finger.

He stared at the ring and felt his temples throb with pain, "So this is what you call love, the divorce is only eight months ago, and you can marry another man?"
