A Vengeful Ex-Wife
Chapter 301 Holding A Ghost

At this moment, James also figured out why Ethan wore such an expression when he left just now. With a guilty conscience, Ethan was afraid of being found out. Maria glared at him. "What are you hiding from me?" she asked.

"I don't know which one you are talking about." He didn't hide anything from her, but there were indeed a lot of things that he didn't want her to know for the time being. Maria sneered. "It seems that you hide a lot of things from me!"

James grabbed the remote control and locked the screen.

Maria stood up and strode out.

"Maria!"

"Don't talk to me!" Her voice was full of anger. She opened the door of the projection hall and slammed it again.

James was speechless 'How dare she...'

When he was left alone in the projection hall, James didn't hurry to catch up with Maria. Instead, he called Ethan first. "What did you say to her?" he asked.

On the other side of the line, Ethan sounded somewhat afraid. "James, don't be angry with me. I know I was wrong. I'll come to you and apologize to you another day." "Tell me!" James was a little annoyed.

"I thought Maria knew you had broken off the engagement with Alina, but it turned out that she didn't... And when she learnt it, she got even angrier..." Ethan hunched his shoulders. He didn't know what was going on in Maria's mind. In his opinion, even if she was not happy, she shouldn't have been angry.

On the other hand, James already got the information he required. It turned out that Maria had known what had happened between him and Alina.

After hanging up the phone, he stood up from the sofa.

When he strode out of the villa quickly, Maria had already started the car. He stood in front of her car without hesitation.

"Squeak-" Maria slammed on the brake.

Looking at the man in front of the car who didn't move at all, Maria gritted her teeth and put the car into reverse, intending to bypass him.

But James followed her. Wherever she turned around, he would stand in her way.

In the end, Maria was so angry that she lost her cool. She turned off the engine, opened the door beside the driver's seat and shouted hysterically, "James, what's wrong with you? Don't stand in front of my car even if you want to die!"

After that, she stood still, gasping for breath.

James came to her and held her in his arms regardless of her resistance. "Maria."

"I'm not Maria! Maria is dead!" She tried her best but still failed to get rid of his grasp, which made her more irritable.

James kissed her hair and coaxed her patiently, "Then who am I holding?" "You are holding a ghost! Let go of me!"

"Calm down. Let's talk."

"I don't want to talk to you. Now I don't want to see you at all!"

With his head lowered, the two of them put their foreheads against each other and could hear each other's breaths. He said in a low voice, "I can explain."

"No need. You can do whatever you want." As she said, Maria's eyes suddenly turned red.

The reason why he didn't tell her that he had broken off the engagement must be because he wanted her to think that she was being a mistress, which would make her feel uneasy.

As long as she wasn't with him openly, she wouldn't publicize their relationship, and she would never have the chance to marry him lawfully. In this way, he could secretly replace another woman to replace Alina. "Don't you want evidence? I'll get it for you!" He pecked her on her lips and then held her hand.

Maria tried to get rid of him, but failed. She had no choice but to be dragged forward by him. "I don't want the evidence anymore. You don't need to give it to me. James, let me go!"

"No!" He refused without looking back.

"You bastard!" Maria choked with anger.

It was all his fault. He made her pregnant secretly and give birth to a son for him. She didn't even have the right to die.

She decided that she would let another man adopt Bob tomorrow.

Hearing her sobs, James finally turned around and stopped walking. He looked at her with deep eyes. "I said I would have a talk with you and I would give you the evidence. What else do you want? Aren't you satisfied yet?"

Tears streamed down Maria's cheeks. She raised her head and looked at the man stubbornly, "I said I don't want to talk and I don't want evidence. Don't you understand my words?"

"..." Her tears, like a pair of invisible hands, grabbed and tore his heart with gradually increasing force.

He held her face and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

Maria threw punches on him, but he seemed to be unconscious and continued kissing her.

He didn't let her go until she was out of breath and sank down in his arms.

Looking down at the woman, he coaxed her in a low voice, "Stop it."

"..." Maria had no strength to retort for the time being, even though he obviously meant that she was making trouble out of nothing.

He lifted her up and walked towards the villa.

She was taken back to the second floor by him. This time, they went straight to his study. James took out a file bag and handed it to her. "Make good use of this."

Staring at the file bag for a while, Maria said, "I don't want it anymore. Let me go!"

James' face darkened. "Maria, don't challenge my patience."

The woman sneered. She decided to challenge him today. With such thoughts in her mind, she turned around and walked away.

However, before she walked out of the study, James threw the file bag aside, caught up with her and pulled her back.

With a wave of his hand, all the things on the desk, including the brand-new laptop, were swept to the ground.

He pressed the woman against the desk and looked at her with his gloomy eyes. "Now that you don't know good from bad, then don't blame me for being rude!" He had tried his best to coax her, but she didn't listen to him. If she continued to make a fuss, he would not be so polite anymore.

"If you dare touch me once today, James, I'll kill you!"

The man held her hands above her head and kissed her on the neck. "I will not only touch you once today. I will touch you tens of thousands of times today! Just let me die tens of thousands of times if you can!"

Hearing that, Maria was speechless. She would go crazy.

Moreover, James kept flirting with her. "You've become better now. It feels so good."

She cursed him silently. 'He means that I have gained weight, doesn't he?'

"Don't glare at me. I won't stop even if you fall asleep today."

"You bastard!" She couldn't help cursing loudly.

The man snorted and didn't give her any more chance to speak. He wanted her to see what a real bastard was like.

After a long time, Maria was carried back to the bedroom. She closed her eyes and lay still on the bed, having no strength to turn over.

Before falling asleep, James whispered in her ear, "From now on, you will be my woman again." She could only be his.

"Get over yourself!" She couldn't help cursing in a low

voice.

As a result, the man, who had planned to let her have a rest because of her low mood, changed his mind and continued to teach her a lesson until she cried and begged for mercy. The second morning, when Maria got up, she was alone in the bedroom, just the same as usual.

When she went downstairs, John had already prepared her breakfast.

When Maria was having breakfast, she received a call from Peggy, who said in a spoffish tone, "Ms. Song! Oh my God, Ms. Song!"

Maria was struck dumb. She swallowed the milk in her mouth and asked, "Why do you sound so eccentric?"

"I'm not being eccentric. I'm just envying you! I'm so envious of you!" "Why do you have to envy me?"
