Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 1469

Meanwhile, Ophelia stepped out of the kindergarten with a grim expression.

Thank goodness I handled the matter fast enough! Who'd have thought Mr. Bauer would launch an investigation as soon as he returned? Gosh. I almost blew my cover! Then again, this must mean that little b*stard's injury was pretty bad...

With that thought in mind, Ophelia curled her lips into a smirk.

That b*tch Roxanne has ruined my chances of a happy and comfortable life! She deserves this little payback from me. Ha!

Naturally, Ophelia needed to inform Aubree about the incident, so she quickly got into her car and dialed the latter's number.

Fortunately, the call got through after just a few rings.

“How did it go? Did you succeed?” Aubree asked urgently.

Argh. Life has been incredibly tough on me lately. I need some good news to cheer me up!

“I greased the shoes of that Benny boy, and he fell really hard!” Ophelia said with a smug chortle. “Mr. Bauer even made a big fuss out of it when he returned, so I'm sure that little b*stard was injured pretty badly!”

Upon hearing that, Aubree felt both gleeful and relieved. “Well done! I'm so thankful for your help. I wouldn't have known who else to turn to if you hadn't agreed.”

“Don't mention it. Remember how much you helped me back then? I'm only too happy to be able to return the favor.”

Aubree, however, wasn't willing to leave things just like that.

So what if I'm not as rich as before or no longer own many luxury items? Compared to me, Ophelia is still from a lower-class background. She's helped me, and it's only fair that I reward her.
