A Vengeful Ex-Wife
Chapter 293 Not Again

Sandra was totally lost. "Will Colby trust you after you've left Mr. Xi?"

Tm not certain. But if I don't get rid of him, Colby Zheng won't believe me at all."

Sandra was speechless. She couldn't replace any word to reply.

At the end of the party, Maria received a call from Sandra. Then Maria left the club in advance and sent Sandra back first. At least, she returned to Golden Mansion.

There was a Harkim parked downstairs, but Maria didn't see it, because she drove the car into the underground parking lot today, and then took the elevator upstairs directly. Until the light in her room was on, the man downstairs narrowed his eyes, stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, and opened his mouth lightly, "Summer."

Then he gave her an order.

When Maria was about to take a shower, the doorbell rang.

She was confused, wondering if it was James who came to replace her.

While she was hesitating, Maria's phone rang.

The phone was connected and she heard Summer's voice. "Maria, help!" "What happened?"

"I have something urgent to talk to you. Could you please open the door? I'm right outside your door," said Summer while gasping for breath.

Maria walked out of the bedroom and asked, "Is James Xi here too?"

"Please open the door first!"

Maria fell into the silence.

When the door of the apartment was opened, a man with the strong smell of alcohol came in and fell into Maria's arms.

Maria gaped at him in silence. Again!

She tried to balance herself first and stared at the woman outside. "Summer, why did you bring him here again! Is this the emergency you said?"

Besides, when they were in the club, James was fine, wasn't he? Why did he get so drunk in a short time?

Summer shrugged innocently. "Yes. Mr. Xi is drunk like this, and he is still calling your name. Isn't it an emergency?"

What Maria didn't see was that the man in her arms twitched his mouth corners when he heard what Summer said.

The next moment, Maria refused decisively and pushed the man out, "Get him away. I won't serve a drunkard!" He would always trouble her once he came to her.

"Maria, Mr. Xi is your man. Is it appropriate for you to push him to me?"

Maria was speechless. Her man? He was not anymore. "Then remember to send him to Alina Tang next time."

The man, whose eyes were closed, opened his eyes and looked at Summer who was standing at the door. As soon as she met his eyes, Summer was frightened and turned around to run away. "Maria, I'm a married woman. You can send him if you'd like. Bye!" "Summer Jin!" Maria shouted, but Summer ignored her and went straight into the elevator.

Maria looked down at the man leaning on her shoulder, rolled her eyes at the air, and said in a low voice, "I've told you that if I'll see you again, you're a hog! You even came to see me again. I don't know Mr. Xi has a quirk of being a hog."

In James' opinion, his woman could fight against him but shouldn't humiliate him.

At the thought of it, the man who had his eyes closed suddenly stood up, held the woman in his arms, and lowered his head to kiss her.

Maria gaped.

She wondered if he had heard what she said. Didn't Summer say that he was so drunk?

The door of the apartment was kicked closed by James, and Maria was pressed on the cabinet at the door and kissed passionately.

She decided to let him do what he wanted. For the sake of his cooperation with her acting in front of Colby tonight, she decided to take him in for another night!

However...

The man, who was kissing her hard, suddenly let go of her and asked, "Why is there a milk smell on you?"

It smelled like that of Bob.

The woman, who had been fascinated by the man's charm, became sober at once when she heard his question. After hesitating for a moment, she raised her arm and smelled it. Pretending to be confused, she asked, "Do I? I just held my friend's baby earlier. How could I get the baby's smell so simply? James Xi, do you have a dog's nose? I can't even smell anything." "Maria Song!" Just now she said he was a hog, but now she said he was a dog!

The man lifted her up, carried her in his arms, and strode to the bedroom.

Maria wrapped her arms around his neck and frowned, "Aren't you drunk? Why do you look so sober?"

"I was drunk." The man kicked open the half closed door of her bedroom and said, "I'm so angry with you that I'm sober now."

Maria was rendered speechless. That was just an excuse, wasn't it?

Later, when Maria was about to beg for mercy and apologize, she unilaterally declared in her mind that the Summer would no longer be her good friend. How could Summer cooperate with this son of bitch to cheat her?

In the middle of the night, James put the woman who had taken a shower back to the bed. He lay down beside her, pinched her cheek, and made her look at him. "Do you still want to go against Colby Zheng?" Tired, Maria muttered, "So annoying. Let's talk about it tomorrow. I need to sleep."

"Colby Zheng is a tough man to deal with." He needed to remind her again.

"I know!" She knew that Colby was indeed a tough person to deal with, so she didn't take action recklessly. Otherwise, she would have reported Colby to the police already.

Thinking that she was perfunctory, James frowned and said, "Maria Song..."

"James Xi, one more word and you should get out of here!" "Maria Song, who did you ask to get out?" The man's voice was full of danger.

Noticing that, Maria became a coward. Maria pulled the quilt and wrapped it on her whole body. "Good night, Mr. Xi."

Instead of lying down and sleeping next to her, James couldn't help but gazing at the woman's wrist, on which there was a turquoise bracelet. Without hesitation, he took off the bracelet, opened the drawer of the nightstand, and threw it into it.

He didn't sleep with her in his arms until there was nothing on her wrist.

In the afternoon of the second day, Maria, who was in the company, was called to the coffee shop by Sandra.

In the shop, she looked at the young woman in front of her and asked, "Sandra, you asked me to come here just to learn how to bake from me?"

Sandra smiled and held her arm. "Yes, Maria. Cooper saved me. I want to repay him."

"Are you going to repay him with two pieces of bread?"

"No. No. No. Of course not! Can you teach me? Please! Please!"

Maria said helplessly, "Well, as far as I know. Cooper doesn't like food that are too sweet. I'll teach you to make a blueberry toast first."

"All right, Master. This way, please." Sandra smiled and made a gesture to show Maria the way.

When the doorbell of the villa rang, it was seven o'clock in the morning. Cooper had just finished his morning exercise and was about to go upstairs to take a shower.

Hearing the doorbell ringing, he walked to the monitor and saw a fair face.

Cooper was a little stunned, wondering why she was here. It was still so early.

Half a minute later, the door of the apartment was opened. He greeted the girl politely, "Good morning, Miss Shen."

With her hands behind her back, Sandra blushed and said in a low voice, "Hello, Mr. Xi. Did I disturb you?"

With a faint smile, Cooper said, "Not at all. Have the wounds on your face recovered?"

He looked at her closely and found no obvious traces.

Sandra answered in embarrassment, "Not yet. I just used foundation to cover it."

"I see. What can I do for you since you came here?"

It was not until then that Sandra remembered her purpose of coming here. She quickly took out the things behind her and said, "I couldn't replace a gift for you in a short time. To show my sincerity, I made blueberry toast for you. I hope you wouldn't mind. I just learned it from Maria. There are also a glass of milk and some fruits in it. You can have them as breakfast."
