Oh Please, My Ex-wife novel Chapter 78

Being called, Jacquiline looks back and meet Alice with curious eyes. She starts, “They are…”

Alice’s heart sinks a beat, concealing her panic. She hurriedly replies, “They aren’t Edward’s!”

The more she tries to conceal things, the more suspicious Jacquiline was. She notices Alice’s fear, she asks cautiously, “Are they perhaps Charles’?”

“No!” Alice denies again, “Jacquiline, don’t you believe me?” Because of the previous conspiracy by Joanna and Janet, regarding the fact that Alice had an adulterous relationship with Charles, then Jacquiline was not there at all. She doesn’t know the truth.

But before all this, Jacquiline had always been a good friend to her. Alice doesn’t want her to misunderstand the situation.

Jacquiline sees Alice’s refusal, her eyes dim, but she does not persist on the topic. This makes Alice breathe a sigh of relief, but she was unaware of the glint in Jacquiline’s eyes.

Two old friends who haven’t seen each other for a long time, meet again. Supposedly, there should be busy catching up. Maybe it was the subject of children that was brought up earlier, the atmosphere surrounding them is a little off now.

At last, an emergent patient arrives at the hospital. Julie comes over to call for Alice, “Alice, you have some matters to attend to. I’ll come over to look for you another day.”

“The next time we’ll go out somewhere to sit and have a chat,” Alice says with slight reluctance.

“Okay.”

Before Jacquiline leaves, she glances at Albert and Rebecca. Her brows can’t help but twist, she can make out a resemblance of Edward from the young boy’s face, especially from his eyebrows.

Maybe it is not known to others, but when she was very young, she had seen the teenage Edward. Hence, she naturally saw through the many similarities between the boy in front of her and Edward.

Perhaps others are deceivable, but how can you fake the same look?

Could it be that the child Alice was carrying back then was really Edward’s child? Didn’t she get an abortion?

Jacquiline misses a step and almost falls. Should she tell Edward about this matter?

However, once she speaks of it, Edward might not give up Alice that easily.

They finally divorced, is she really going to reunite them again?

Hailing a cab, Jacquiline clenches her fist. She boards the vehicle, shuts her eyes, and hears the driver in front question, “To where, miss?”

After a while, Jacquiline replies the drive, her phoenix-like eyes icy. She bites her lips and decides, “To SA Group.”

There are some things that she must ask in person.

SA Group, President’s Office.

Edward is working in the office when he notices Allen escorting Jacquiline. Halting his work, he raises his ink-like eyes to look at her, asking in a mellow voice, “Did you meet with her?”

It is just a very common sentence, but when Jacquiline hears this, she feels uncomfortable. It is as if she wishes Edward is no longer like before. All his attention is on Alice. After all, they are separated, right?
