Jilted Ex-wife Billionaire Heiress novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 From Daddy To Annoying Person

Just as her voice trailed off, Reece and Micah strolled over, walking side by side.

‘Hey, Brooke, has Darya left?‘ Reece spotted her and quipped, ‘Why is this mutt still here?

‘Darya forgot to take Marshmallow with her.‘ Brooke patted the dog’s head.

Reece clicked his tongue in disapproval before asking, ‘The guy who left with her, do you know what’s going on between those two?‘

‘You mean Miss McAllister and Doctor Miller?‘ Brooke asked.

‘Yeah, those two.‘ Reece stroked his chin. ‘They seem awfully familiar with each other. Are they more than just employer and employee?‘

Brooke had a similar suspicion.

However, not one to engage in idle gossip, she simply shook her head and said, ‘I have no idea.

Micah narrowed his eyes and shifted his attention to Marshmallow.

The last time they met, the little pup called him daddy, and Darya, mommy.

Micah had been thrilled.

However, today, Marshmallow seemed off.

‘Do you still remember me?‘ Micah tried to reach out and pet Marshmallow.

But the pup squirmed away, exclaiming, ‘Annoying person! I want Mommy! I want Mommy!

‘Annoying person?‘ Micah’s outstretched hand froze, and Reece’s eyes widened in surprise.

Marshmallow used to adore Micah, following him eagerly and even wanting to go home with him.

Why did he suddenly find Micah annoying?

‘Little guy, you used to call him daddy. How could you forget?‘ Reece stared at Marshmallow in amazement.

Marshmallow huffed and rolled its eyes at Micah. ‘Hmph, he doesn’t deserve it!”

Brooke looked away, hiding a smirk.

Micah stared at the dog.

Why did this little pup’s personality do a 180?

Had Darya influenced it somehow?

Chapter 127 From Daddy To Annoying Person

Micah’s expression grew darker by the second, silencing the others who feared provoking his anger.

Thankfully, just as the tension reached its peak, the car that had recently departed returned.

Micah watched coldly as it pulled to a stop, and the person who stepped out was Brion

‘I’m here to pick up Marshmallow,‘ Brion said politely, approaching them and lifting the pup off the ground

Marshmallow, now nestled happily in Brion’s arms, glanced curiously at the backseat, only to find Darya, who had been there moments ago, had vanished.

‘Doctor Miller, if you don’t mind asking, what’s your relationship with Darya? Reece mustered the courage to ask the burning question in Micah’s mind, now that Darya was absent.

Brion looked up and replied with a blank face, ‘That’s a secret.”

A secret?

Micah’s blood boiled with anger.

If there was a relationship, why keep it hidden?

Was their connection too scandalous to reveal?

‘Do you know what their relationship is?‘ Reece gestured toward Micah, hinting to Brion that he shouldn’t mess

with someone like Micah.

But Brion was an exception.

He glanced at Micah indifferently and shook his head. ‘I’ve no idea.‘

‘I am her deceased ex–husband.‘ Micah’s voice turned icy cold, chilling everyone present to the bone.

Brooke looked at Brion with concern etched on her face.

The brilliant doctor had just offended one of the most powerful men in Hagen.

Yet, Brion remained unfazed.

With a casual ‘oh,‘ he carried Marshmallow to the waiting car, paying no mind to the dumbfounded onlookers.

Silence enveloped them all.

Did the doctor just ignore Micah?

Since Micah invested in the joint project, he was, technically, Brion’s boss.

To ease the awkwardness, Reece couldn’t help but chuckle. ‘I hear the doctor just returned from overseas. Maybe he’s not familiar with you.‘

Micah shot him a glare, prompting Reece to immediately seal his lips.

Not far away, Darya anxiously awaited Marshmallow’s return.

Soon enough, the car came to a smooth stop in front of her.

‘Mommy!‘ Marshmallow excitedly rushed up and leapt into Darya’s arms.

Darya hugged Marshmallow apologetically and said, ‘I’m sorry, baby. It’s my fault for leaving you behind.”

Marshmallow shook its little head, affectionately rubbing against Darya’s face. ‘It’s okay, Mommy. All is forgiven if you buy me another Hermes scarf. It felt so comfortable, the one you gave me before. This time, I want one

with a chequered pattern.‘

Darya was rendered speechless.

Marshmallow was indeed just like her–right down to the way he ‘blackmailed‘ others.

He must have witnessed her countless attempts at extortion with Callan.

‘I saw that annoying guy earlier! Mommy, I scolded him on your behalf, and he looked miserable!‘

Annoying guy?
