Oh Please, My Ex-wife novel Chapter 120

His words catch Alice off guard. It’s painful for her to see the bitterness in Edward’s eyes. She can sense his torturous jealousy, but…

Randall shifts his eyes from Edward’s irritated face to Alice’s blank face, reaching his hands out to Alice. “Wait for me in the car.”

“Alice!” Alice’s name bites out of Edward’s lips, his cold eyes glued to Alice. How dare she get on Randall’s car!

“I’ll wait you outside.”

In the nick of time, a black Cadillac pulls off, and a lady of high society gets off, coldly staring at Alice. She is talking on her phone, “Commissioner Holt, I just come across a prisoner standing in front of a police station.”

After hanging up on it, Janet Louis walks slowly toward Alice.

With furrowed brows, Edward says unhappily to her mother, “Mom, why are you here?”

“Why not? To allow you to rile others up again?” Janet scoffs and shoots Alice a disgusted glare. Alice is the bitch to start it all.

“Mr. Collins…”

Alice looks at Randall as if she’s begging him. Randall figures out that she wants her to stop Edward, which will be construed as a scene of a hero saving his lover.

“Wait for me, please.”

“Thanks.”

Edward is exasperated in jealousy as Alice and Randall show off their affectionate conversation in his face. When he tries to grab Alice’s hand, Randall latches a hand onto Edward’s forearm. “Boss Edward, I’m sorry but Alice obviously doesn’t want to go with you. Please don’t bother her anymore.”

It hurts Edward to hear Alice’s name out of Randall’s lips.

There’s jealous fire burning in Edward’s eyes, while Alice is too busy fretting over her children to notice Edward’s glare. She hopes Randall can safely bring her children out of that place.

But things are more complicated than she thinks.

Suddenly, a squad of policemen show up and besiege them, then there comes a dignified man, Commissioner Holt, who greets Edward politely, “Boss Edward, sorry to bother you, but we have to take her away.”

Then Commissioner Holt gestures to the policemen, and Alice is cuffed by two policemen.

“Harry Holt!” Edward bellows. He wants to stop them, but his head is pointed at by their guns. Janet is afraid that her son will stand up against the police and hastily pulls him away. “She’s a prisoner who should be taken away by the police.”

Edward doesn’t give her words a shit as he can’t let her lover sent to prison again. He plunges at Alice without fearing the guns and glares at Commissioner Holt. “Let go of her!”

“I’m sorry, Boss Edward, but Miss Alice is arrested for an alleged intentional car accident, we have the proof. Please do not obtrude the law enforcement.” Commissioner Holt darkens his face as Edward doesn’t step aside. “If you continue stopping us, we’ll have to put you in jail, too.”

“I dare you!” Edward doesn’t care about it, but Janet realizes that Hale family must have Commissioner Holt’s back so that he can act tough in Edward’s face.
