Oh Please, My Ex-wife novel Chapter 53

“Alice, how dare to speak to her like that. Janet is here to give you some advice. Don’t be such an ungrateful person.” Joanna says haughtily. Janet is here, that’s why Joanna has nothing to be afraid of.

Alice looks at the shrews in front of her, she feels helpless and speechless. The only thing she wants is for them to leave her alone. Why does that become the hardest thing to come true?

Alice ignores Joanna. She knows Janet is the main person to talk to today, and she knows that they are not leaving until they get what they are here for.

“Mrs. Smith, aren’t you afraid that Edward would find out about you coming to the hospital to see his ex-wife? And all those dirty little secrets you hid from him? I believe that he will be interested in knowing the fact of why I left him five years ago.”

“You, shameless woman! How dare you threaten me? Alright then, I will make sure you can never say a word to Edward!” Janet’s hands are shaking from her anger. She takes her phone out of her purse.

Joanna looks at Alice with disdain. She knew it! Alice must have want Edward back. Otherwise, what’s the reason she didn’t want to leave?

Funny! She even said it’s Edward who keeps harassing her. What a joke! Yes, they were a married couple before but now they have divorced.

Besides, Edward hasn’t been talking to her for so many years. If Alice didn’t come back, she is pretty sure she and Edward are living happily ever after.

When the thought comes to Joanna’s mind, her eyes are filled with evilness. She wants Alice to be gone for good!

Joanna looks at Janet. She knows, Janet must have some way to get rid of Alice. It still doesn’t mean anything that she contributed ideas to Janet the last time they get rid of Alice.

She is the daughter of the Mayor, and Janet is the mother of Edward. They have the upper hands already.

“Hello, is this the Director? Yes, I’m Edward Smith’s mother. I would like to fire an employee in your hospital. She has a terrible reputation in messing around with other's fiancé and a record of divorce. She is from the Department of Andrology. I want it done right away!”

“…”

“Name? Her name is Alice Roberts. Yes, she is new to the hospital. I hope you would be more aware in the future about what kind of people you hire in a hospital. Not anyone is qualified to work here, especially those shameless sluts!”

Joanna stands beside and listens to their conversation. She heard the Hospital Director’s voice from the phone. He sounds obedient and agrees to all Janet’s orders. When Janet asks him to fire Alice, he agrees and apologies to Janet, claiming that it’s his careless mistake.

Janet purposely put their conversation on the loud-speaker, so that Alice could hear everything.

She listens to the familiar voice. She has met the Director before. He looks strict in his work. However, from the conversation she heard, he sounds like he is about to bow to Janet.

After ending the call, Janet looks at Alice arrogantly and says, “Don’t ever think that I will buy your story. Leave, and never come near to Edward ever again.”

It is just ridiculous! Alice says, “Mrs. Smith, you’ve made a mistake. I did not want to see Edward. Please, ask your son to stop harassing me and stay away from me!”

Alice grabs her purse and walks towards the exit.

“Did I say you could leave?”

Alice stops. Her eyes are filled with unbendingness and anger and her lips curves into a mirthless smile. She glares at Janet who blocks her way. “Is there anything else, Mrs. Smith?”

“What an ill-mannered woman. Did I say you could leave?” Janet taunts Alice with her condescending attitude.
