OH PLEASE, MY EX-WIFE

Chapter 44: She Did Nothing Wrong
Ever since that day in the coffee shop, Alice keeps worrying if Edward is going to find out anything. However, the result turns out
pretty well. Edward hasn’t come back ever since.
This shows Edward is convinced that the children aren’t his, which is why he didn’t come back and question her.
This is supposed to be a thing to celebrate but Alice feels like there is a void in her heart. It’s like she could already foresee the
situation, but when it really happens, she feels sad about this.
Alice’s bitter expression shows and her babies see it. They both know what she is thinking. She must be thinking about Daddy.
“Mommy, that uncle who visited you the other day, is he your friend?” with an innocent look and tone, Rebecca asks Alice.
Alice dazes. Friend?
She shakes her head.
“Is he your relative?”
She shakes her head again.
Looking at her mother’s reaction, Rebecca silently lights up a candle for her daddy in her heart. It seems like it is going to be a
long way to get her back.
But Albert holds a totally different opinion. He thinks that his father deserves it. After all, he abandoned them and their mother.
“Then...Then who is that uncle?”
Alice dazes again. Looking at her confused children, she couldn’t answer their question. He is not a friend or a relative...he is a
familiar stranger.
...
“SHIT!”
Edward throws the documents onto the desk. His eyes are filled with anger. Allen stands in front of his desk, dare not to say a
word.

“Redo the proposal. If they submit anything like this again, fire them!!”
“I will ask them to redo it now.” Allen picks up the scattered documents on the floor, and secretly curse those who made
mistakes.
Everyone knows that the boss isn’t in a good mood lately, can’t they be more careful?
Do they have a death wish?
No, they are already dead.
Allen walks out of the Director’s Office with the document. The design department is filled with anxiety and everyone looks
terrified. Looking at their response, he doesn’t know if he should be angry with them or laugh at them. When he is about to say
something, one of the staff looks like she has seen a ghost. He is immediately triggered.
Do I look like I’m as scary as the boss?!
“Fanny Jones! You...”
“Good...Good morning, Director!”
What? Did she call me the Director? She has a death wish or what? Just when Allen wants to teach the new staff a lesson for
not able to differentiate him and the Director, a familiar voice raises from his back. “I’ve got something to attend to. You take
charge of things here.”
“Yes...Yes, Director.” Allen answers the moment he turns and sees Edward’s cold face.
Allen sees Edwards off to the lift. He is cold like a huge iceberg. People in the office make a sound of relief after they see Edward
enters the lift.
The next thing they know is that Allen gives an order. “Everyone must stay back tonight until you all submit a proposal that fulfills
the boss’s requirement!”
“No!!!!”
The office is immediately filled with mournful cries.
...

Edward is driving toward the direction of the villa with a straight face. His mother just called. She needs her to go back home and
that there is something to discuss.
What else could the discussion be? He knew it already. It is about his wedding with Joanna.
Wedding!
Why do all these women so want him to get married quickly?!
Suddenly, a familiar face comes across his mind. He recalls what Alice said to him. Edward’s dark eyes immediately filled with
anger. How dare she give birth to other man’s children?!
Edward hit the brake. He turns his car in the opposite direction and drives away.
Why does he have to bear with all the harassment, forcing him to get married; while she is able to enjoy the joy that brings by the
children, and work with her ex-husband in the same hospital?
Alice Roberts, don’t you dare to enjoy happiness if I’m not happy here! You left me once, you won’t be able to get away from me
this time!
...
“Dr. Roberts is really something. She is still able to juggle in between two handsome men despite the fact that she already has
two children.”
“I know right. You all have seen it the last time. That family member of the patient sends her flowers and invited her to dinner.
They even went out together. Now she goes after another silver-spoon after the first one got dumped.”
“Shh...don’t talk so loud. You won’t want Julie to hear that.”
When mentioned about Julie, the nurses lower their voices and look around. They daze when they see a handsome man stands
at the entrance of the corridor. Isn't that the man who looked for Dr. Roberts just now?
Thinking of what they said about Dr. Robert, the nurses all run away from the scene. However, the youngest among the nurses is
blocked by Edward. “Who came looking for Alice Robert before this?”
“I don’t know. I don’t know anything. Don’t ask me.”

The little nurse shakes her head. She’s been here for only less than half a year. Normally she is a quiet person. What happened
just now was she gets held back to listen to gossips.
“Tell me what you know.”
The little nurse never sees such a terrifying person. She gets scared and tells Edward that there were people sending Dr.
Roberts flowers and whatever happens during that period.
After she finishes her words, she looks at Edward in fear. “Can I go now?”
Edward’s expression turns as cold as ice. He lets the little nurse runs away from him. A mirthless smile appears on his lips.
Hasn’t he known it? That she is a gold digger?
Why didn’t he believe what his mother told him?!
When Alice sees Edward, she gets cornered by him before she even gets to say a word. He questions her, “Who is that patient’s
family? Alice Roberts, I’d never expected that you are not only hooking up with John Blake but with other men too! How dare you
attend dinner with another man when I’m not around?!”
Does he know about Randall Collins?
Alice panic a little at first but the moment she sees Edward’s angry face, she thought, why should I be scared?
She did nothing wrong!
“Mr. Smith, it has nothing to do with you. Please let go of me.” Alice replies with a cold tone.
There are many people in the hospital corridor. All of them stop and stare at them when they see Edward corners Alice, who is
wearing a white lab coat, onto the wall.
“Why? Do you have no courage to answer my question?” Edward looks at Alice glares at Edward, “Edward Smith, let go of me.
This is a hospital”
“Then tell me who he is. Family of a patient... Didn’t I already book your schedule for a whole year? Are you that afraid of
loneliness? To an extent...”
The cracking sound of the skin-contacting-skin echoes off the walls.

Before Edward can finish his sentences, Alice slaps him, hard.
Rage turns her face red and she feels pain in her heart as if it is stabbed by something. She stares at Edward, grits her teeth and
says, “Edward Smith, even though you have already booked my schedule, you are still a normal patient to me. You have no right
to interfere with my personal life. Who I went out with has got nothing to do with you at all!”
