CEO's Ex-wife Stunned the World novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181 Let Go

It was early in the morning.

Shayla led Katelyn to a hospital.

Edwin’s sperm was in cryopreservation. Katelyn started her fertility shots after various examinations.

Katelyn would have artificial insemination after the ovulation happened.

“Mom, do we have to do so?” Katelyn became hesitant.

Shayla sneered. “Silly girl, where can we retreat now?

“We have no choice but to move on. Don’t look back.”

As for Julianna, she prepared for the coming lawsuit.

She received a court summons right after she hired a lawyer, Jason.

The lawyer hired by the Keaton family started the final negotiation with Julianna.

A ringtone sounded.

Julianna’s phone rang.

“Hello,” Julianna answered the call.

“Hello, Ms. Reece. I am Tim Hacker.

“Mrs. Keaton entrusted me to have a final negotiation with you regarding the custody of the children.”

Hearing this, Julianna took a deep breath and said, “Go on, please.”

Tim paused and then said in a low voice, “Mrs. Keaton wants you to give up the custody of the children. She will give you 30 million dollars as compensation.

“Well, your daughter will stay with you. The Keaton family just wants custody of the two boys. It is a fair deal.”

“Heh.” Julianna sneered.

“Please tell Mrs. Keaton that I will not give up custody of my children no matter what happens.”

“Ms. Reece, I advise you to think twice before going against the Keaton family because the consequence will be terrible. Possibly, you will get nothing in the end. I think it is a wise choice to accept compensation from the Keaton family.”

Julianna sneered. “The Keaton family is powerful, but can they throw weight around?

“I won’t take the money. Tell Mrs. Keaton that I will meet her in court.”

“Okay, we will meet you in court if you insist.”

Soon, Julianna’s lawyer sent the Keaton family a lawyer’s letter.

Then, Jason called Tim.

“Hello, I am Jason Lord.”

“Hello.”

“I’m a lawyer on behalf of Ms. Reece.”

“You detained Ms. Reece’s children. It is illegal imprisonment. If you want a fight in a legal court, we will be there for you.

“We will do whatever to protect our rights and interests. The Keaton family will have to pay the price and support the

children…”

The two lawyers began their argument.

Neither of them yielded, so the judicial process would take over.

Both parties took their cases against each other to court.

The Keaton family got support from a group of international lawyers, and Julianna hired the best legal team from Philadelphia

for her case.

Edwin felt helpless in this dilemma.

He didn’t want to fall out with Julianna. Edwin thought, Our relationship just improved a little. Now, it deteriorates because of

the custody of our children.

Grandma is stubborn, and so is Julianna.

I can’t persuade Grandma to give up the custody of the children.

Julianna will be unhappy if Grandma forcefully takes away the custody of the children.

Edwin had a headache.

However, he could do nothing. Therefore, the problem of custody became a court case,

The court would hear the case next month.

Coincidentally, the new year would come next month. This case annoyed both parties who had fallen out with each other.

This was the Reece Group.

Julianna continued to work though the lawsuit distressed her.

Julianna was reading documents in her office.

Bang! Bang! Coco knocked on the door and then walked into the office.

Coco nervously said, “Ms. Reece, Mr. Keaton is here…”

Before Coco finished her speech, Edwin had barged in with a long face.

“Mr. Keaton…”

“All of you, get out.”

Worried, Coco and her two colleagues left the office without delay.

Julianna became nervous. She subconsciously stood up from her chair.

“Edwin, what are you doing in my office?”

Edwin looked sinister. He walked close to Julianna, raised his eyebrows, and said sullenly, “Julianna, do you have to do so?”

“Edwin, your family is too aggressive.

“You once promised me that you wouldn’t fight against me for the custody of my children. However, you went back on your

word, so I have no choice.”

Edwin took a deep breath and tried his best to be patient. “Grandma is old. Can’t you think for her?”

Julianna glared at Edwin. “Edwin, I am a mother. Why can’t you sympathize with me?”

Hearing this, Edwin lost his cool. “I am the father of these children. They are not yours.”

“As I said, I will send the children to you whenever you want to see them.

“However, you detained my children. That is terrible.” Julianna was so angry that her eyes turned red.

“Julianna, can we talk things over?” Edwin suppressed his anger and looked at Julianna with indignance.

Edwin wanted to remarry Julianna.

However, Edwin was so proud that he didn’t know how to bring up this topic. He thought, She is a foolish woman and knows nothing about my feelings.

Julianna ran into the elevator and hurried downstairs.

Edwin was a bit late, so he missed the elevator. Without hesitation, he took the stairs to chase Julianna.

“Oh my, what are Ms. Reece and Mr. Keaton doing?”

“I don’t know. Tsk, tsk, tsk. There are good shows in the company every few days.”

“Mr. Keaton must have taken liberties with Ms. Reece again.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Focus on your work.”

This was the lobby.

Edwin arrived at the lobby at the same time as Julianna did. He must have run like hell.

“Julianna, stop right there.”

“Edwin, don’t come over.”

The elevator was close to the door, so Julianna ran out of the elevator and then out of the company.

This was a bustling street.

People came and went, and there were a lot of cars.

Julianna, who thought of nothing but to get rid of Edwin, tried to flee.

In a panic, she wanted to cross the road to the downtown area not far away.

I can get rid of him as long as I am in the downtown area. Julianna thought.

Julianna arrived in the middle of the road..

Right then, a car dashed toward Julianna at a high speed. Moreover, this car ran on the wrong side of the road, so the driver was probably drunk.

“Ah!” Julianna screamed. It was too late for her to dodge the car now.

“Julianna, be careful.” Edwin stopped, grabbed Julianna by the arm, and fiercely pulled her backward.

The car whizzed past.

A terrible car accident didn’t happen, but the car still brushed past Julianna.

“Ah.” Julianna fell to the ground and rolled on the floor..

The car drove away without stopping.

“How did you drive?” Edwin was so scared that his face turned pale. He rushed to Julianna.

The cars behind Edwin had to stop for this incident, and the drivers stuck their heads out of the car windows to see what was going on.

Julianna got scratches on both her arms and knees from the fall. Lying on the ground, she could not get up

alone.

“Uh!”

“How do you feel?” Edwin lifted Julianna up and checked her wounds.

After a painful groan, Julianna struggled to stand up.

However, she weakly fell again before getting on her feet.

Few people drove like that..

Therefore, that driver did try to crash Julianna.

Fortunately, Edwin pulled Julianna backward in time. Otherwise, Julianna would have been knocked down just now.
