A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 253

Summer fell into silence. After a while, she gulped nervously. "I'm sorry, Mr. Xi. I was careless."

This was all Maria's fault. Why didn't she inform her about her plan?

On the bright side, however, it was not Maria who had gotten into an accident, so Summer couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

James sneered. "From now on, don't believe a word that comes out of that woman's mouth!"

"Okay, Mr. Xi."

"Also, purchase the hospital and fire that Dr. Liu."

"Yes, Mr. Xi. I understand."

Dr. Liu passed by them just as James mentioned his name. He quietly touched the bank card in his pocket and chuckled to himself. He didn't give a damn if he was fired, he had enough money to open his own clinic. Finally, his days of overtime were over.

Later that day, at six o'clock in Zurich, Maria found herself nodding off to sleep.

After all, it was one or two o'clock in the morning in H City.

She didn't force herself to stay awake. She climbed into bed and slept soundly.

Several hours of blissful slumber went by. She didn't even stir when someone entered her room.

It wasn't until she felt something heavy pressing on top of her body that her eyes popped open in surprise.

"Maria Song." A man's gloomy voice rang in her ears.

"It's you," said Maria, still in a daze from having just woken up. Then, she came back to her senses. "Wait, how did you know I was here?" She warily eyed at the man on top of her.

Resisting the urge to strangle her, James hissed, "Aren't you supposed to be dead? If you want to die so badly, I'll personally send you on your final journey and pour your ashes into the H River!"

Maria's jaw dropped. She didn't expect him to find out so soon.

Quickly regaining her composure, she wrapped her arms around his neck and batted her eyelashes at him. "James, are you here for me? Oh, I've missed you so much!"

"Yes. "I'm here to fuck you." There was no way he was going to let her off the hook. He was determined to teach her the price of having lied to him.

Without giving her a chance to respond, James sealed her lips with his own and began the torture-filled night.

Maria had visited Zurich for fun and leisure, but James was determined to put an end to that.

He didn't allow her to leave the hotel room, leaving her with nothing to do but play with her cellphone.

Even in Switzerland, James was so busy that Maria couldn't see him that much.

He only came back when he felt like torturing her, usually late at night when she felt the sleepiest.

On the fourth day, Maria couldn't take it anymore and secretly purchased a return flight, planning to go back to H City alone.

But it was futile.

As soon as she bought the ticket, James found out. He then asked his assistant to book a ticket on the same flight back, eyeing Maria sharply the entire time he was on the phone.

Maria rolled her eyes. This man was such a nuisance, pestering her like a relentless ghost.

That evening, as she was drifting off to sleep, James reached out and pinched her chin. "Did you think this was over? Dream on!"

He wanted her to know that frightening him had heavy consequences. That kind of practical joke was not funny at all.

Summer heaved a sigh of relief when she saw James and Maria coming out of the VIP passage.

Maria looked fine.

She trotted over hurriedly and grabbed Maria's hand. "What happened?" she whispered.
