A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 140

Maria was rendered speechless. She didn't expect that James would echo Daniela. Without saying anything, she turned around and walked away, silently cursing in her head.

James cast a cold glance at Daniela with a hint of warning in his eyes.

He then turned around and strode to keep up with Maria, who had already entered the elevator.

As soon as the elevator doors closed, Maria smashed the reports to James and yelled angrily, "Screw this fucking checkup! You need to do this when you are free. I'm afraid that you are not in your right mind, Mr. Xi."

The elevator doors then opened, and she walked out decisively.

With a face livid with anger, James walked out of the elevator and shouted at her back, "Maria Song, stop!"

'Damn this woman! I really need to teach her a lesson,' he thought inwardly with furrowed brows.

Maria turned around and sneered, "Why will I listen to you? I have my own dignity."

James now felt angry beyond words.

When Maria reached the parking lot of the hospital, she walked to her car. She was about to get in when a big hand grasped her wrist from behind.

Without bothering to look back, she already knew who it was.

James wouldn't give her a chance to get rid of him. He pulled her into his car and said, "You are such a lousy driver. You don't deserve to drive anymore."

Maria sneered and teased him, "You want to give me a ride? How about riding with me in bed? You just talk the talk. You are not a real man at all."

Upon hearing her suggestive complaints, James stopped and looked back at her sternly. "I'm afraid that you'll cry when I start riding on you."

Maria glared at him, not knowing how to retort. When she thought of how he made her cry every time, she scolded herself for being such a loser.

However, she wouldn’t just admit it to him. She countered, "Do you really think you are that powerful? The doctor actually said that a man who can do it for more than an hour is sick."

James disagreed and retorted, "But did he tell you that the only exception is when both parties enjoy it in that one hour? As far as I can remember, you enjoy it very much everytime we do it."

Maria's face flushed with embarrassment. 'James, you son of a bitch!' she swore inwardly.

She had to admit, she couldn't win against him in this argument. She shook off his hand and said, "I'm tired of always telling you how to avoid arousing suspicion. Mr. Xi, please pay more attention to it in the future."

James just glanced at her and opened the door to the passenger seat. "Get in!"

"I will. Just don't touch me." Maria got into the car and sat in the passenger seat. She was not in the mood to argue with him anymore. Soon enough, the Harkim roared away.

There was a pin-drop inside the car as neither of them spoke. Maria was deep in thought, thinking if she should go back to her hometown in the countryside. James, on the other hand, was thinking about her relationship with Lawrence.

Instead of going to the coffee shop, Maria let James drive her back to the hotel. As soon as she got out of the Harkim, she looked at him in the driver's seat and said, "Although I'm still pissed off, I want to thank you for coming to the hospital just now."

James glanced at her and said indifferently, "Close the door."

Maria closed the door obediently. He then stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

She was speechless while watching the receding car. He left without hesitation. He didn't even respond when she expressed his gratitude to him.

When James' car stopped at the traffic lights, he took out his phone and called Lawrence. "What's your plan tonight?"

"No plans yet," Lawrence answered. If he hadn't been involved in James and Maria's affairs, he would have already returned to the military long ago.

He had sacrificed a lot for James, who should really appreciate his relationship with him.

"Let's go out to drink."
