EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 83

The awards session was followed by a lucky draw, with the lowest prize being a large cash prize of 2,000. All those present in the venue were eligible for the draw, subject to the draw code distributed on entry.

Elijah looked at her raffle code from the stage, "Hey, I've won! Two thousand!"

Austin on the side: "Have you never seen two thousand?"

"How can this be the same! This is the winning prize! Besides, when I go on stage later, it's the beautiful president, Miss Holland, who will give me the prize personally! Hey, what are you doing?!"

As soon as Elijah's words left his mouth, the raffle code in his hand was snatched away by Austin.

He looked incredulously at his thirty-one year old friend, "Austin, what are you doing?"

"I'll give you twenty thousand."

"Do I look like someone who's short of twenty thousand?"

"I'll give you a present for that project in S City."

A present over 200 million!

"We are friends, fore sure I will help you, okay, you have it."

Austin glanced coldly at Elijah: "Stop it in moderation."

"Yes!"

For 200 million, Elijah was happy to shut up.

The prizes were already being handed out on stage, and the host called out the raffle code to Austin's hand.

Elijah elbowed him with his elbow, and although he didn't say anything, the way he squeezed his eyebrows really showed that he needed to beaten up.

Austin tugged at the corner of his mouth and lifted his leg over the crowd and onto the stage.

Many people were surprised when they saw Austin.

Suny was also frozen for a rare moment, but in just a second, she recovered as usual and reached out to shake Austin's hand, "Congratulations."

"Thanks."

Austin looked down at her, the soft warmth still lingered above his palm. He looked down, took the red envelope handed over by Suny and turned to get off the stage.

This was probably the most amicable encounter they had had since their divorce.

After the raffle, it was then free time to stay or leave.

Suny got off the stage and looked at the time, intending that in another five minutes she would leave.

At this time, Steven, who was talking to Ashley, walked over, "Suny."

Suny gave a smile, "How does it feel?"

"Very nice, you are a generous boss."

Steven was also very busy these days, and the two were only boyfriend and girlfriend in a partnership, so naturally they didn't have the opportunity to see each other on weekdays.

But it seemed to Suny that after that night, Steven probably didn't need her much as a fake girlfriend.

"The company is just small."

Steven looked at her and was just about to speak, but his phone rang, "Excuse me, I have to take a call."

Suny nodded, and when she inclined her head to get a glass of soda, she found Austin looking at her sullenly.

She withdrew her gaze and took a sip from her soda.

Steven hung up the phone, his face not very good: "Rachel is outside, she said she wants to talk to you."

Suny frowned slightly, "She and I have nothing to talk about."

"She said it would only take five minutes of your time."

Suny pondered, "Then excuse me."

"Suny, I'm sorry for what happened the other night."

She smiled, "As you said, this matter is not very much your concern."

Steven shook his head, "I know about the vase."

She grunted, "You're not trying to persuade me to be generous, are you?"

"No, I'm just more guilty of putting you through it."

Suny said, "I won't let myself be easily aggrieved. Excuse me."

She said, turning to walk out.

Halfway through the walk, Alicia suddenly ran over, "You are going back now?"

"No, Rachel wants to see me."

"What did she want with you?"

Suny thought about it, "It's probably about the bet."

Alicia snorted, "What, willing to bet but not to lose?"

"Yeah."

"Then I'll go with you! Maybe this girl is playing some tricks!"

Suny didn't refuse, only when she saw Rachel, she stopped Alicia: "I'll talk to her alone."

Alicia bristled, "Fine."

On such a cold day, Rachel stood on the edge of the yacht wearing a dress and a shawl.

Suny walked past before she turned her head, "Suny, do you have to force me?"

Hearing this from her, Suny couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, "I forced you?"

It'd been a long time since I'd heard such a funny joke.

"You really don't want to get the bet off?"

Suny looked at her, "Miss Murray, as an adult, you have to be responsible for everything you do."

Just as she finished speaking, Rachel suddenly climbed up on the parapet: "If you don't agree, I'll jump from here! There are many reporters on the shore, right? As long as I say that you pushed me down, do you think you should go in for a few days of jail time?"

Tsk, so that was her plan.

Suny hooked her lips, "I'd quite like to see you jump off."

Rachel was so angry that she was shaking, "Suny! I'm serious! I'm not joking with you!"

Suny looked at her and withdrew the smile on her face, "I am also serious, you have forgotten, what happened three years ago, Miss Murray, but I have not."

The fact that Rachel deliberately pushed her into the pool in front of so many people was something she always remembered.

"You! You'll regret it, Suny!"

Rachel couldn't think of any other way, so she literally turned around and jumped into the sea.

Alicia, who was also stunned with her phone recording, rushed over, "Is she crazy?"

Suny glanced at Rachel who was inside the sea water, "Maybe."

With that, she then turned her head to call for someone.

Rachel could swim and would not drown. On such a cold day, since she liked to jump into the sea, let her soak for a while longer.

As expected, when Suny called the people in, Rachel was already crying and cursing from below.

She glanced back at Elijah: "Mr. Brooks, go down."

Elijah gritted his teeth and did not move.

It was not that he was cruel, but Rachel used to be on the swimming team, so he really didn't have the courage to jump into the sea on such a cold day.

The lifeguards had already dragged Rachel to shore by this time, and when she saw Elijah, Rachel jumped at her, "It was her, she pushed me down."

Suny stood a short distance away, watching Rachel's performance with a smirk.

With one hand on her mobile phone and one hand on the microphone, Alicia broadcasted the video she had just recorded.

"Suny, do you have to force me?"

"I forced you?"

"You really don't want to get the bet off?"

"Miss Murray, as an adult, you have to be responsible for everything you do."

"If you don't say yes, I'll jump from here! Lots of reporters on the shore, right? As long as I say you pushed me down, do you think you should go in for a few days of jail time?"

"I'd quite like to see you jump off."

"Suny! I'm serious! I'm not joking with you!"

"I am also serious, you have forgotten, what happened three years ago, Miss Murray, but I have not."

"You! You'll regret it, Suny!"

The phone was small and the content of the video could not be seen clearly, but the sound was amplified by the microphone and everyone present could hear it clearly, including Rachel.

Rachel, who was originally crying and shouting for Elijah to call the police, could not cry anymore, and her face was pale in Elijah's arms.

The people around looked at her like she was a joke. Rachel felt embarrased and threw herself into Elijah's arms: "I want to go home! I want to go home!"

Elijah, who was so thick-skinned, felt ashamed to stay any longer and picked up Rachel to leave.

When she passed Suny, Rachel saw her through the gap in Elijah's elbow, who was standing there with a faint smile on her face and her charming eyes as cold as the moon.

For a moment, Rachel felt like a complete joke.
