Oh Please, My Ex-wife novel Chapter 118

Edward looks darker and gloomier, notices Janet. The imprint of the five fingers was on his pretty face. Janet eyes are crossed by fierce feelings while she takes out a recorder and shoves it under Edward’s nose.

She smacks her lips and goes, “I told you she is a bad woman, haven’t I? Don’t take my words for true if you wish, just listen it yourself."

Edward doesn't grab the recorder and Janet is indifferent. She just places it on the coffee table and waits for some kind of reaction. Her objective has been achieved. She gets up, stares at May, and leaves.

Edward looks at the recorder on the coffee table for a long time and in the end, he presses play.

He recognizes the voice of Alice straight away.

Every word was like a needle in his heart.

She definitely doesn't love him anymore.

————

Alice at the villa is about to burst into tears because of her confession. She is dead worried about Albert and Rebecca and Edward's deception saddens her very much.

The children. Her children...

"Look how brave the newly released prisoner is, already showing herself in the streets!" A sharp and mean woman’s voice rings, calling Alice back to reality. The arrogant Joanna.

Alice ignores her trying to walk past to go and find her children.

Joanna plants her feet in front of Alice blocking her way. Seeing Alice's worried expression makes her particularly satisfied, "Where are you going so fast?"

"None of your business." Alice replies coldly.

"Tsk tsk, aren’t you a fugitive? How bad would be if I call the police now? Don’t you dare talk to me like that!"

Her words bring pain and anger to poor Alice. She ended up in this terrible situation because of Joanna, but despite this, Joanna continues to make fun of Alice as if nothing had happened.

"Joanna, between us the criminal is you, and you know it well. The truth will one day come out!"

Joanna smiles at the sound of those words, "Seriously? Do you really think anyone will ever believe you? Or maybe you think Edward will come to save you? Forget about it! He can't even protect himself now!"

Alice’s shiny teeth sink into her lower lip, her eyes half closed. The thought of Edward unable to protect Albert and Rebecca and their disappearance hidden for three days is unbearable. "Edward no longer concerns me."

"What an indifferent bitch you are! I wonder what Edward would say hearing this." Joanna is sweet and compassionate, but it's all fake. Her eyes reveal the fierce truth: disdain and contempt.

Alice tries once again to leave, but Joanna's words make her stop, "Are you not worried about your children?"

"Do you know where they are?" Alice approaches Joanna so close that she can feel her breath on her face.

And Joanna, seeing Alice trembling, is filled with joy. She deliberately says slowly, “What if I do know?"

"Tell me where they are!"

"And why on Earth would I do that?" Asks back Joanna arrogantly.

Alice grits her teeth. No matter how Joanna humiliates her, she has to be polite for the sake of her children. What choices does she have?
