Oh Please, My Ex-wife novel Chapter 41

“We still need to get it over with, right?”

Julie thinks Alice is right, which is why she didn’t stop her from meeting Randall Collins.

Her skin is as clear as white jades. Gentle, yet clear eyes of hers made this meeting extraordinary, even if they are just sitting there.

“Mr…Mr Collins…”

“Yes?”

Alice raises her bright eyes and holds tight to her nervous hands under the table, “I’m sorry Mr. Collins, there might be some misunderstandings…”

“It’s the 1998 Chateau Lafite. Try it, it tastes great.”

Randall Collins reaches out to the red wine bottle next to him with his long and fair fingers. He then pours a glass of red wine for Alice. His movements are so gentle as if he never heard what Alice said earlier.

Such attitude pisses Alice off. She knows Randall Collins doesn’t want to hear what she wants to tell him and that he has a will on his own. Flowery words have got no use on him, it is best to be straightforward.

Although Randall Collins tries to be as gentle as possible his emotions turn bad at the end of the dinner, and Alice’s rejections are the cause of his bad mood.

“Let me send you home,” Randall Collins looks into Alice’s eyes.

“It’s okay. Thank you for the dinner tonight, Mr. Collins. I have to say, you are very charming but I’m sorry. I feel bothered by your actions. Please don’t ever come and look for me anymore. Goodbye.”

Alice turns and leaves the scene immediately after she finishes her words, and she never cares to glance back.

Randall Collins’s face turns cold after hearing what Alice said. There is a striking coldness in his dark eyes but his lips curve upwards. This game is getting more and more interesting…

After leaving the restaurant, Edward’s face and his dark eyes come across Alice’s mind.

Where is Edward?

He has never been to the hospital for a long time. Has he…moved on?

She should be happy about him moving on. However, the idea of this possibility stings Alice’s heart. Alice shakes her head and tries to clear her mind, “It must be the exhaustion. It must be.”

Although her schedule is booked, Alice still goes to work on time every day. Both of her babies are on summer break now, so she thought, why not bring them to work?

When her cute babies show up in the hospital, they immediately gain many fans, and their most passionate fan is Julie.

“Aunt Julie!” Albert and Rebecca call her name together. Their kiddie tones and the cute faces make them irresistible.

“Come, tell me what you want to eat. Your mother is in the middle of a meeting right now. Wait for her here, alright?”

“Okay.” Rebecca smiles and takes the carton of milk handed over by Julie.

“Aunt Julie, did mommy get bullied here in the hospital? The television programs I watch tell me that even hospitals have bad people.” Albert rests his arm on the desk and asks Julie.

Looking at Albert’s cute face, how would Julie know he is trying to pump information out of her?

She told Albert about what happened before, like how Edwards came to the hospital and embarrassed Alice, and that Randall Collins is courting Alice.

The moment Julie realize she is ranting on inappropriate content to two innocent children, she covers her mouth and shakes her head, “Forget what I said just now. It is all nonsense.”
