A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 54

The office was dead silent for a few seconds. James asked indifferently, "Are you done?"

Chandler wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded. At first, he didn't have guts to confront this man, but his wife and daughters insisted he do it. Now he wouldn't even look James in the eye.

James stood up from his seat and tidied up his costly suit. "Sorry, but my decision is final. Period."

The man nodded politely to Chandler and left the office with his mobile phone and documents.

The matter of the marriage was settled. Later, the wedding went off without a hitch. Even if Chandler tried to convince James, it wouldn't work.

Maria didn't need any special tricks to marry James, becoming Mrs. Xi.

"Who's there? Are you smoking?" A serious voice interrupted Maria's reverie, brought her back to reality.

As soon as she came back to her senses, a dazzling light swept over her. She raised her hand to cover her eyes.

She looked down again and found there were several cigarette butts strewn about her. She hadn't kept track, and started chain smoking while sitting here.

Immediately, Maria put out the cigarette in her hand, and took a tissue from her purse. She knelt down and picked up the cigarette butts she had discarded. "Sorry. It's all cleaned up now. See you later!"

The dean of the school could tell she wasn't a student there. It was obvious from what she wore. But she was picking up her cigarette butts, so the dean's attitude softened somewhat. "Miss, what are you doing here?"

Maria packed up the cigarette butts, stood up, and said, "I used to go here. But not anymore. Sorry, I'll leave."

"Good idea. We're locking up for the night. You don't want to be trapped here."

"All right. Thanks."

Walking out of the school, Maria didn't go anywhere else. She hailed a taxi back to her hotel.

When Mr. Wang woke up in his hotel room, there was no one beside him.

If his room wasn't messy, he would have thought it was all a dream. That he hadn't spent the night with that charming woman.

He remembered the woman kept whispering in his ear last night, "Mr. Wang, please take this bidding contract! Please!"

Under her spell, he agreed readily.

Then they had a wonderful night. Mr. Wang threw back the quilt and got up. Looking around the room, he found a note on the nightstand. He picked it up and read, "Mr. Wang, my flight left this morning, so I didn't wake you up. See you next time!"

Mr. Wang smiled. He really liked women like her, good in bed and a good head on their shoulders.

But he hadn't spent the night with Maria.

When the driver went back to the hotel to pick Mr. Wang up, another woman got into the car to replace Maria.

He had already fallen into Maria's trap. Maria beat him up, and the woman who spent a passionate night with him was someone else—all arranged by Maria of course.

However, Mr. Wang didn't suspect a thing. Instead, he was still lost in his memories of last night.

Meanwhile, Maria had arrived the airport with Colby.
