A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 63

Although Maria was James' ex-wife, Alina still felt threatened. She didn't want to admit it, but she was insecure when it came to Maria.

After all, Alina had always believed that James wouldn't have married Maria if he had no feelings for her.

James didn't say anything. He just stared at Alina with a darkened expression.

After a while, he said, "Once we are married, I will never cheat on you."

He was a loyal man. Although he didn't go home often when he and Maria were still married, he never fooled around with other women.

A teardrop fell from Alina's eyes. She cried, then laughed, snuggled her head down his shoulder, and confessed, "James, I love you so much. I've fallen in love with you from the moment I first laid eyes on you. I was only eighteen back then. I've waited for you for almost twelve years. And finally, I will be engaged to you soon. My dream has come true!"

Unfortunately, James was not interested in love. So he was not moved even a bit by her confession. Just like splashing a basin of ice- cold water on her face, he mercilessly said, "You and I clearly know what will happen between us. We have nothing more than a marriage of convenience. Both of our companies can benefit from this marriage. HL Group has its own interests in Tang Group, and I can also help your family business prosper. Alina Tang, there should be no love involve between us, so you'd better control your emotion."

Ever since James was a child, he had always believed that no one else would love and cherish him but himself.

Because of that, he swore that he wouldn't give his heart to anyone.

For him, if he couldn't even manage his own emotions, how could he manage the huge HL Group effectively?

However, Alina had already fallen with him so deeply. It was too late for her to remove him from her heart. "It doesn't matter. I will do my best to make you fall in love with me." She believed that there was always a way to everyone's heart. As long as she fulfilled her duties as a good wife and she treated James well, there was a chance to change his mind.

For a moment, silence filled James' office. Then Alina let go of him and wiped her tears. "Go ahead with your work. I'll go now. Just don't stay here too late, okay? Go home and go to bed early."

As Alina went out of James' office, the pungent smell of her perfume that irritated his nostrils finally dissipated. And the frown on his face gradually loosened.

After leaving HL Group, Alina thought for a long time. She came up with a conclusion that Maria could always find a reason to get close to James because of their dead son.

She couldn't think of any other reason for Maria to get near him.

Inside the Night-Out Bar, the night had just begun.

More than a dozen young men and women in a luxury private room were having so much fun, shaking their heads to the tune of the ear-splitting music played by the DJ.

But not long after, the big screen where the music videos were being shown went black, and the music abruptly stopped.

Everyone got vexed at once. One of them shouted, "What the fuck?! What's going on?"

"Ben, what's wrong with you?" another one asked.

The young man who was in charge of the projector was harshly scolded. But he also felt frustrated as he didn't know what happened either.

He was about to call someone in to fix it when the big screen lit up again. They all thought that the music video would resume playing. But when they took a look at the screen, they noticed that it was something else.

"Holy shit! Isn't that you, Mr. Tang?"

"Hey, Ronald! That's really you. Whoa! Who is that chick with you?"

When Ronald heard everyone mentioning his name, he walked to the front and looked at the screen in confusion.

It was a video of him and the girl he had sex with in a hotel last week. On the screen, he saw himself impatiently taking off his clothes. Ronald was stunned in disbelief and embarrassment. He had never taken a video of himself in such a scene, so someone must have recorded secretly.
