EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 146

"Austin."

At the sound of the woman's voice, his tightly closed dark eyes twitched slightly.

Winnie looked at Austin standing outside the terrace, his whole body blending into the boundless night, mournful and cold.

She did not dare to go forward, but only stood in the doorway, some three metres away from him, and called to him.

She had watched what had just happened from the sidelines, and she couldn't believe that a man as arrogant and unbeatable as that would actually apologize to Suny.

"What do you like about her? Is she good-looking? Apart from a face, what is it about Suny that you like about her?"

Austin was already in a crumbling mood, and now there were people came and judged at Suny.

He snorted and looked back at Winnie who was standing on that doorway, "Who are you to mention her? You're not even worthy of helping her carry her shoes, Winnie."

"You're not even worthy to carry her shoes for you, Winnie."

These words were undoubtedly a sharp knife, and Winnie's body trembled when she heard them.

He used to call her "Miss Bates" for so many years, but it was always just a cold and heartless "Miss Bates".

Winnie went crazy: "How am I inferior to her? Austin, how am I inferior to her?"

She was not resigned to the fact that she was not as good as Suny.

Austin just looked at her coldly, as if he was looking at a clown.

At last Winnie was so chilled by the look on his face that she suddenly screamed, turned and ran away covering her face.

After Winnie left, silence returned to this side of the terrace.

Austin tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Over-confident."

Suny followed Frank into the rest room, thinking of what had just happened, she looked back at Frank: "Sorry, Mr. Frank, for giving you trouble."

Frank gave her a bottle of mineral water, "It is okay, but..."

He said, raising his eyebrows, "Your ex-husband looks like he can’t move on."

Suny laughed: "We have never been there, how he moves on?"

Frank looked at her for a moment, "You're not going back to him, are you?"

"Do I look like that kind of person?"

Frank smiled, "No smart person goes backwards, Suny, you are a smart person."

"Thank you, Mr. Frank, for the compliment."

She was indeed a smart person.

"OK, you stay here, I'll go out to meet someone and come back to take you out."

Suny was embarrassed, "Okay."

Frank waved his hand and left with the door closed.

The lounge was a luxurious suite and Suny took a seat on the sofa.

She was a smart person, but at the end she was also a human being.

Those words of Austin were not all useless in her case.

At least right now, she was not in a good mood and was a bit irritable.

She would rather Austin treat her like he did those three years, just as a gold-digging heartthrob, disgusted and disdainful.

Although she was happy to see him like this at first, she had come to a point where she would prefer that the two of them should go their separate ways and be at peace.

Having just entered the venue, this happened and Suny didn't stay long before leaving.

Frank was the main character tonight and couldn't take the time to see her off. Seeing her lack of interest, he didn't force her and let her go back.

Just after returning to the villa, Alicia called.

Suny poured a cup of water and sat on the sofa, feeling tired: "What's wrong?"

"What's going on this evening?"

Alicia had a wide range of friends in all walks of life, and what happened this evening didn't take long to reach her ears.

But her friend was a bit exaggerated, Alicia did not believe it.

But Suny and Austin bumped into each other and something happened, and Alicia still believed it.

Suny didn't expect things to get to Alicia so quickly, she took a sip of water, "Nothing, Austin is out of his mind."

"...... No way, he really said he liked you in front of all those people?"

At the time, she didn't feel much, but now that Alicia asked about it, Suny felt a few ripples in her heart.

She pursed her lips and responded faintly, "Yes."

"Is he fooling you or is he serious?"

"Serious."

For a moment, Alicia was surprisingly speechless.

Austin suddenly turned back to Suny, and Alicia surprisingly didn't know whether she should advise Suny.

In these matters, Alicia felt that Suny could handle it well.

But as a friend, she still had to be concerned, "Do you still have feelings for him?"

This question stunned Suny.

In fact, she herself was not sure, those three years had consumed all her hopes and she no longer had any idea that she would be with Austin.

But did she still like Austin?

He was the one she liked when she was fifteen. Suny covered his eyes and said honestly: "Isn't it said that first love is always the most memorable?"

"In that case, Austin can’t forget Jennifer!"

Suny felt her heart ache, "Did you do that on purpose?"

"No, I'm just simply curious."

Suny was exasperated by her, "Then you should ask Austin."

Alicia thought about it, "Maybe Jennifer is too ugly."

Hearing this from her, Suny couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, "You mean Austin likes me because of my face?"

"No, girl, you have money besides your face!"

Suny felt better hearing that and she let out a laugh, "You're right."

Probably feeling not right, Alicia continued, "In fact, Austin doesn't look like such a shallow person, perhaps he also likes your intelligence, after all, a mother's IQ has a great impact on the next generation."

"...... It seems that Ashley truly loves you."

Alicia felt the mockery again, but after all, she had started it herself, so she had to put up with it: "Does it make you any happier to think of it that way?"

"A little bit."

"It is okay, and your happiness is my happiness! Anyway, whatever decision you make, I'll be behind you cheering and supporting you! Austin isn't actually that bad, for the sake of his courage to confess his love in public, I can barely accept him pursuing you!"

Suny's heart warmed slightly and her mood improved, "I am okay, it's late, get some rest early."

"Okay, bye then."

"Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Suny looked at the phone in a daze.

Austin actually said he liked her in public, which was actually quite unexpected for her.

But that didn't mean that she was willing to go back to him.

Alicia was wrongly, in fact, she was not that soft-hearted.

People were always responsible for the things they had done.

Relationship was not a joke. She had been there once, but she got hurt, so now she didn't have the courage to do it again.
