Oh Please, My Ex-wife

After all, Joanna is no longer there, and Alice doesn't want to be with him at all. "Edward, I..."

"You bastard, get out!" Before Edward finishes speaking, the office door suddenly pushes open. A beautiful woman in a red deep-V suit comes in while reprimanding Allen arrogantly. Joanna Hale it is.

Joanna came in here today dressing up sexily, her body originally quite good. Wearing such a sensual and distinctive dress, her skin looked like snow, willow leaf-like eyebrows. This makes her even more stunning.

To tell the truth, Joanna is not inferior to the top tier female celebrities. Even more so, she is from an upper-class family. The aura of wealth surrounding her is different when compared to others. The average man's heart will beat faster inevitably when they see her. It is a pity that Joanna met Edward, a man who was born determined and cold.

For many years, Joanna has never seen Edward whisper a word to a woman, with the exception of Alice!

That's right, Alice!

Thinking about her name, Joanna's beautiful eyes widen fiercely. She doesn't believe that she is no better than this useless woman.

"President..." Allen looked apologetically at Edward who was resting, feeling bitterness in his heart.

Who knew that in the Hale family, Joanna would be the most difficult person to work for? As the mayor's daughter, no one dares to offend her, even if she wants to break into the office.

Allen wanted to stop her, but he was also worried about hurting her. However, he was slapped by Joanna in front of the door before entering, and now there are five fingerprints on his face. "You go out first." When Edward saw Joanna, he twisted his eyebrows and waved Allen off.

Allen hurriedly exits the office with a relieved expression, leaving Edward, Jacquiline and Joanna.

"Edward-" Joanna notices Edward's dark expression. Her heart pangs slightly, quickly walking towards him with her eight-centimeter high heels, crying softly.

"What are you doing here?" Edward retracts his gaze and asks faintly, disinterested. This makes Jacquiline sitting next to him feel some joy, it can be seen that Edward really doesn't like Joanna.

Seeing Edward act so indifferent to her, Joanna can't help but show a grieve expression. As she was about to say something, she notices that there is still an attractive woman at the rest area. It was Jacquiline, whom she hasn't seen in a long time! In an instant, Joanna's face sank.

If she were to name the person she hates the most, it would definitely be Alice. So, Joanna dislikes anything that is related to Alice. Just like Jacquiline, Edward's distant cousin who was good friends with Alice in the past.

Didn't she go abroad five years ago?

Why is she back?

"What a coincidence, I didn't expect Jacquiline to be here!"

Joanna greets Jacquiline with a sly smile, glances at her, internally wishing to stab in her body several times.

Joanna had a mean look on her. Jacquiline doesn't know how she doesn't know, but she replies with an amiable smile. She stands up and nods, "Hello Joanna, even seeing you after such a long time, you are still beautiful." Joanna scoffs disdainfully in front of Edward, but she doesn't dare to be too sarcastic to Jacquiline. She just replies in an angry tone, "Suddenly coming back to the country, is it because you were too bored overseas?" The implication that Jacquiline was not studying abroad in evident.

"I made Miss Hale worry, Jacquiline returned because she had just completed her five-year design major in Cambridge and received a certificate. I came back to China to expand my business."

Jacquiline explains in a very calm manner, successfully watching Joanna's face fall. She smiles to add, "Miss Hale also seems to have studied in Cambridge. Speaking of which, Miss Hale is also my senior."

At that moment, Joanna's face turns completely dark.

Yes, she used some improper tactics to land a spot in Cambridge University to study.

To put it simply, it's just that a group of wealthy and rich second generation used the brand of prestigious schools in the past. In fact, insiders know that this is all made-up.

But since it is fake, if you want to get a real certificate, you have to go to school diligently.

But when Joanna arrived at the States, she prioritized leisure, except for the first day of school. After that, she has never attended university.

Naturally, the second generations of officials and affluent families who went with her all received a certificate with decent grades, and she was the only one who gained nothing

This incident has become an unspoken public secret of the higher-class, but everyone is scrupulous about Mayor Hale. However, they do not dare to mention it in public. Secretly, whoever is not laughing at Joanna is useless.

Now that Jacquiline mentions regarding this matter, it seems to be closely related to Joanna. But when a discerning person hears this, they will know that Jacquiline is taunting Joanna for not being able to attain a certificate. That she is hopeless.

"You jerk, don't think that just because you spent a few days in university, means that you have the guts to bring this matter in front of me!"

Joanna is so angry that she doesn't fight it anymore. Facing Jacquiline, she yells at her, stretching her hand out to slap her. This incident is regarded as her fault, after all. After rumors spread, the reputation of Mayor Hale decreased. "Joanna!"

Just as Joanna's hand was about to reach Jacquiline's face, Edward, who has been silent for some time, opens his mouth. His cold eyes sweep across Joanna, causing her hand to pause subconsciously. She shows Jacquiline an unwilling look, and finally lets her hand fall. "This time for the sake of Edward, I'll let you go!"

Jacquiline tightens her fists secretly. Joanna is arrogant, this is not her first time to witness it. There is no need for her to be this furious because of that statement.

It's just... Edward's words halted her actions, but Jacquiline can't help but have a glimmer of joy. You know, except for Alice, Edward had never stood up against Joanna before, but now because of her...

Jacquiline's delicate face blushes unconsciously, staring at Edward, "Edward..."

"Ignore her, sit down, let's continue where we left off."

Edward doesn't think of Joanna at all. The cold eyes that land on Jacquiline don't feel as icy anymore. It is a slight difference, but it still makes Jacquiline extremely happy. She sits down.

Joanna grits her teeth, beyond pissed, but also takes a seat next to Edward. Although she is afraid to hold his hand or do anything too intimate, Edward doesn't respond. Joanna's face brightens and she glances at Jacquiline proudly.

Most of Jacquiline's merriment falls in an instant. However, remembering the press conference not too long ago, she can be sure of one thing. There is absolutely no way that Edward likes Joanna, or else why wouldn't they get married after such a long time, they even delayed the wedding!☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
