A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 321

There were several photos in the article. The first one showed him going to King Bar to pick up Maria, the next one showed him carrying her into the car, and the final one showed the two of them kissing in the garage of Golden Mansion. The article concluded by saying that James had stayed in Maria's apartment the whole night.

Any piece of gossip about a high-profile man like James would become hot news. In an instant, it exploded all over the major social media and news platforms.

Many of the commenters said that they felt sorry for Alina. After all, the public didn't know that James had already broken off the engagement, so they thought that he was cheating on her.

Just then, the bedroom door swung open. Having washed up, Maria walked back in, wearing a lace nightgown. On her neck was a mark that he had left there last night. Anyone who saw that would be able to tell what had happened.

Maria innocently walked over and sat down opposite James. When she met his gaze, she was taken aback for a moment, but she quickly recovered and whined, "My head hurts. I want to drink some soup."

James stood up and went to the kitchen to pour her some soup to help with her hangover. "Why did you go to a bar alone?" he asked.

Maria drank a spoonful of soup before replying, "Well, I was in a bad mood at that time, and I didn't want to disturb you while you were working, so I just went to drink alone. Why? Did I do something wrong?" She looked up at him in surprise.

He had just opened his mouth to respond when his phone rang again. Once again, it was a call from the manager of the PR department. "Mr. Xi, YoYo Entertainment servers have crashed. Do you think we should remove the hot topics. If we don't put a stop to this now, it will be too late."

'Mr. Xi is really awesome. Because of him, even the servers of YoYo Entertainment are down, ' the manager thought.

Taking a look at Maria, who was calmly eating a sandwich across the table, James said into the phone indifferently, "No. Spend how much ever you need to to buy the top ten trending topics and title them, 'James Xi and Maria Song seem to be back together.' Wait. Change it to 'They are ready to get back together.' By the way, I want you to clarify that Alina and I already had a peaceful break-up five months ago."

Since a certain someone wanted to announce it in advance, James had no objection.

But Maria almost choked to death on her sandwich. After coughing uncontrollably for a few seconds, she took a sip of milk to calm herself down and cried, "James, are you crazy?" When she had received the phone call this morning, all the social media sites were already out of control.

And now, he wanted to take up the top ten trending topics? She was afraid that the public would curse him for taking up public resources.

As if reading her mind, James put down his phone and raised an eyebrow at her. "MiChat, YoYo Entertainment, and Mi Browser all belong to HL Group.

As the CEO, don't I have the right to take up the top ten trending topics?"

He was right, of course.

The whole world found out that James had peacefully called off his engagement to Alina, and that he was going to get back together with his ex-wife.

Of course, this meant that everyone's attention would be on Maria now. Even if her face hadn't been photographed clearly, her name would be on everyone's lips.

Just then, she received a text from Norman saying, "Good job, Maria!"

In Norman's eyes, this was worthy of congratulations. After all, James, who had always refused to comment on any rumors, had declared in a high-profile manner that Maria was his woman. Didn't that mean that he truly loved her?

Reading that text, Maria almost choked again.

After getting neatly-dressed, James stood in the bedroom, looking at his phone while waiting for the woman who was still busy in the cloakroom.

She poked her head out and asked, "Aren't you leaving first?"

He raised his eyebrows at her. "There are so many reporters waiting outside your apartment. If I leave alone, your money will be wasted." It was very out-of-character for her to get drunk alone and ask him to pick her up. Ever since then, she had been acting abnormally, and it didn't go unnoticed by him.

Maria opened and closed her mouth like a goldfish. She didn't know what to say. How had he found out?

She had secretly paid a news agency to leak the news of their affair. However, this was far from the result she had imagined.

After changing her clothes, she put on a red overcoat and shot James a confused look, as if she didn't understand. "What are you talking about?"

James walked up to her, held her waist, and pulled her into his arms. "It doesn't matter. What matters is that the whole world knows that you're my woman now. You can't go anywhere from now on." She had to stay by his side.

Maria felt a little suffocated. Things had spun out of control. Did she really have to give the rest of her life to him?
