EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 70

Ivy was instantly shocked, "Elijah, did you see it clearly?"

Rachel turned white on her face: "Brother! Have you gone mad?! I'm your own sister! How can you help an outsider to accuse me wrongly?"

Dorothy looked at Suny, who always looked the same, and met his gaze: "Mr. Murray, it's late, so I won't continue to bother you, I'll have the money for the vase sent over later."

Saying that, Suny glanced sideways at Steven, "Can I go now?"

Steven froze for a moment, responded and nodded, "Yeah."

With that, he looked towards Dorothy and Ivy and said goodbye, then left the Murray’s with Suny.

From the beginning to the end, Suny did not seem to be worried.

Dorothy looked at Suny's back and suddenly thought of something: "Elijah, is Steven's girlfriend Austin's ex-wife?"

Elijah nodded in response, "Yes."

Dorothy frowned, "This girl is not simple."

Elijah also secretly felt that she was indeed not simple.

Tonight Rachel was like a clown in front of her, and crucially, even Suny's expression did not change a bit.

After Dorothy finished, his face suddenly turned cold, and he raised his hand and gave Rachel a direct slap: "How did I teach you?"

Ivy only had one daughter, and when she saw her husband slap Rachel's face like that, she was heartbroken: "What are you doing! Rachel was just impulsive, you should just talk to her properly, why did you hit her?"

"Impulsive? If I remember correctly, at Dad's birthday party two years ago, she and Tina had a lot of trouble with her, right? You think you're laughing at them, but they're laughing at you too!"

"Look at Suny just now, from the beginning to the end, did she ever show the slightest bit of anger? How about you? You were born in the Murray family, I only have one daughter, I have given you the best of everything since you were a child! But look at you just now, you've disgraced my face!"

How could Dorothy not know about his own daughter? Except that in the past, Suny was Austin's wife and the occasion was special, and the Johnson family did not treat her well, so naturally he would not interfere in these matters.

But nowadays, he had been in the market for so many years that he could see people right at a glance.

A woman in her twenties was not submissive or retreating when she confronted him. Based on these two points alone, Dorothy could conclude that Suny must have not been simple.

Rachel was completely bewildered by the slap from her own father, which made her head buzz and she covered her face, not daring to say a word.

Elijah found an excuse to run away, and just as the car left the villa, he called Austin.

Austin did not refuse to answer his call, Elijah said, "Austin, I just came out from my aunt's house, it's a pity you didn't come! What a great show!"

Austin on the other end of the phone sneered, "With your intelligence going to the show, you're not afraid that you're the one being watched."

"...... Suny was just visiting my uncle's precious vase, and Rachel pushed her and Suny didn't stand still and flung the vase over. I was originally torn about whether to help or not, Rachel was blaming her, but I didn't expect your ex-wife to push me directly into the limelight and force me to be a witness."

"Hey, I'm telling you, Austin! How come Suny looks like a different person after she divorced you? Why do I think this is the real Suny! You don't know how scary she looked at me at that moment, she was obviously smiling, but I felt oppressed."

Austin put out his cigarette, "You called just to tell me this?"

"What else? She is your ex-wife, don't you care?"

Austin lit another cigarette: "If you care about her so much, you can just chase after her, you're handsome and suave anyway, it's easy to do that, no need to test me."

Elijah even wanted to roll his eyes, was this what a friend should say?

He then said: "Fine, I'll never talk to you about Suny again!"

For the first time, Elijah hung up the phone in annoyance, Austin is a tough-talking man, if he was so capable, why did he call to ask him to send Steven away!

The phone was hung up, Austin looked at the gradually darkening phone screen, his black eyes sank.

It had nothing to do with him.

The car slowly stopped in front of Suny's villa, Steven tilted his head and looked at her: "Suny, I'm really sorry, I didn't know they would treat you like this."

Suny raised her eyebrows: "Maybe I'm the one who should say sorry, your godmother should be in a bad mood tonight."

Seeing that she could still tell jokes, Steven sighed in relief, "Maybe, but that's something my godfather is responsible for."

Suny picked up her bag, "Well, your god-sister should be in a bad mood too."

Steven gave a smile, "Adults always have to pay for their mistakes."

"Indeed. I'm going back, good night."

"Good night."

Steven waved her hand and watched her back, unable to guess whether Suny was angry or not.

In fact, Suny was in a much better mood than Steven thought, she was someone who had always held a grudge, and Rachel and Tina had deliberately made a fool of her at the birthday banquet that year, so tonight, knowing full well that Rachel was going to turn on her, she kept watch and sat back to watch the good show.

She was not a good person either, and she was not completely unstable when Rachel pushed her.

But Rachel had been buzzing on her ear like a fly all night, so it would have been unjustifiable she did nothing, so she simply played along.

Even if the vase was real, she could still afford to pay for it.

Rachel wanted to play, didn't she?

Then she would play with her.

Well, now she was playing with fire, and she was the one who lit the fire.

Thinking about how she saw Dorothy's darkened face before she left, Suny could not help but curl her lips.

Rachel shouldn't have a very good time tonight, right?

However, it wasn't just Rachel who was having a bad night, but also Austin.

He had lost sleep again.

After his divorce from Suny, he seemed to be prone to insomnia.

That night he had left decisively, determined that he would not let himself go back to Suny to make a fool of himself.

However, when he heard Elijah that Steven had taken her to the Murray’s, in the capacity of Steven's girlfriend, his heart was still in turmoil.

This heart turmoil continued until now, four minutes after midnight, when he closed his eyes, it was the scene of Suny sitting on a high stool and singing that day.

The thoughts in his heart that he wanted to take Suny back as his own kept growing like crazy, and Austin felt that he was going mad.

He was, perhaps, really going to humiliate himself, just like Elijah had said.
