My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL)
Chapter 844 Make a Long-range Plan

Because Mrs. Diana Rhodes' collapse was related to the love affairs between Roman and Mrs. Marshall, Ruth did not let anyone else know about Diana's being in the hospital, including her sister Anna.

In fact, Ruth did not even want to talk about the spoiled Anna, who was always fiddling around all day. No one knew where Anna had messed around last night; Ruth did not think Anna could help her and her mother at all.

Besides, the affair this time was so serious that it came as a deadly blow to her mother, Diana, and Ruth was very worried that her mother could not stand it. After all, Diana was always trying to be better than others in all walks of life which Ruth was fully aware of.

During all these years, her father was always having affairs with others, which her mother turned a blind eye to; yet the affair with Mrs. Marshall this time was indeed disgusting.

Therefore, as soon as Diana opened her eyes, Ruth asked her nervously, "Mom, are you alright? Do you feel anything wrong?"

"I'm fine, take it easy," Diana said coolly with a mien of calmness.

Actually, before she opened her eyes, she had been awake and conscious for a long time. She lay on the bed and thought a lot. The more she thought, the eerily calmer she became.

She would not let both Roman and Mrs. Marshall off.

If she had not gone into a coma due to great rage, she would have found Mrs. Marshall and slapped her face hard and probably have quarreled furiously with Roman in his ward.

But she calmed down completely when she woke up: She should make a long-range plan and torture the bitch's heart gradually.

Since Linda Marshall was a sickly daughter of Mrs. Marshall and Roman, Diana decided to take revenge on the sick lady first.

Over the years, the Marshalls' business had been going downhill. But for the Cantillos' support, they would have been declared bankrupt long ago.

Diana used to believe that it was because of the good friendship between Mrs. Marshall and her that Roman helped the Marshalls and introduced business to them. Now Diana realized that it was all because of Mrs. Marshall and the sickly Linda.

Diana tried hard to calm down, yet thinking of these made her furious again with her chest burning with rage.

The marriage between Ezra and Erika was in fact a plan Roman designed for the sickly Linda because Linda needed to spend a lot of money to keep healthy.

Diana did not realize that Mrs. Marshall was such a shrewd bitch underneath her humble servility that she could delude the sharp-sighted Roman into protecting Linda by Ezra's marriage.

Diana told herself to be calm over and over again. She could not be angrier since things had been terrible like this; otherwise, it would be good news for the shameless couple.

"Mom, are you okay?" Ruth asked, leaning against Dian's bed because Diana's calmness in turn made her worried.

"Help me up," Diana ordered, not answering her question.

Ruth helped Diana up quickly and poured a glass of water for her.

After drinking water slowly, Diana asked, "You didn't tell your father about my being in the hospital, did you?"

"No, I didn't," Ruth said truthfully.

"Well done," Diana approved of Ruth's choice. If the old man had known Diana's collapse due to great anger, he would have guessed that she had been aware of his stigma. Diana raised her hands and fixed her hair. "Go to your father's ward with me."

"Ah, right now?" Ruth was a little bit afraid that her mother was about to quarrel with her father.

If the affair between his father and Mrs. Marshall was made public, it would be extremely shameful to her.

Diana sneered, "Don't worry. I'm not going to quarrel with him. I want to take my revenge a boiling frog-torture them little by little."

Ruth glanced at Diana and heaved a sigh of relief.

When the two of them were on their way to Roman's ward, Diana asked Ruth as if she had just remembered something, "How's Maisie's mother? Can she take Maisie's child away?"

Ruth was still immersed in the confusing relationship between her father, Mrs. Marshall, and her mother, and she did not expect her mother to suddenly ask things about Ezra and Maisie. After a moment of bewilderment, she responded, "Her mother seems to have left Riverside City. She said Ezra gave her one million and five hundred thousand dollars to buy out her mother-daughter relationship with Maisie, and she agreed.

"So, she doesn't want to help us. I think she only wants to live her wealthy life in her hometown," sniffed Ruth.

Diana was surprised. "1.5 million dollars to buy out the mother-daughter relationship? Ezra gave it to her?" "Yes." Ruth nodded.

Diana became annoyed. "Ezra, the nutcase!"

Diana was angry that the 1.5 million dollars given by Ezra must be Canuli's money. Even though almost ninety percent of Canuli's profits at present were brought by Ezra, her two daughters and she were also parts of the Canuli. Ezra should also ask for their approval when he used such a huge amount of money to deal with personal matters.

"Yes. I was also very angry when I heard the news!" Ruth said in anger. "He still doesn't admit his love for Maisie. If he's not in love with her, will he spend thousands of dollars like this?"

"Oh," Diana sniffed, "I agree. He just doesn't admit it by words, but speaks out his love by actions," Diana said.

Then she looked at Ruth, "Otherwise, why do you think I would know about your father's scandal with the bitch, Mrs. Marshall? Ezra must be the one who did it. Perhaps it is his revenge on me. Because he knew that we incited Maisie's mother to rock the boat."

"He did it? So, he already knew about what we did?" Ruth realized. "No wonder last time he said something about marrying Linda. He must know dad wouldn't agree with it."

"That's it. No wonder Linda refused madly at that time." An unmerciful light flickered in Diana's eyes. "But it's good that we know the truth, so we can focus more on Maisie and her son."

Diana then told Ruth, "Find a way to continue to bribe Maisie's bad-mannered mother to get the child. Now we can only get to that boy through her."

Diana originally wanted to bribe the nanny, but the nanny's son was a public security university student. Upon she found it out, she immediately gave up the idea; a nanny with a son like this would certainly not cooperate with them to do bad things.

It turned out that the only one who could get close to Maisie and her son was Maisie's mother.

When they deluded Maisie's mother into making Maisie in trouble, they also made a deal with her that if she could get Maisie's son out, they would give her a sum of money.

Maisie's mother at that time also freely agreed. No one expected the plan would change so quickly. Who would have thought that Ezra spent 1.5 million dollars on asking Maisie's mother to cut off relations with Maisie? It was much more than the money they promised to Maisie's mother so she was now bent on going home and was completely unwilling to work for them.
