Regret soon consumed Ace after the divorce. He never expected that his boring ex-wife would move on overnight, and be living her best life. Not only did a young heir of an influential family claim to be her underling, but a famous celebrity confessed to being her fan as well. Even one of the wealthiest people in the country referred to her as their senior. “I don't care how strong your background is, Joanna Pierce. I'll make sure to tear down your walls!” With that, the second son of the Moran family set out to protect the woman in secret. Ace: "My ex-wife is so fragile that she can't even stand on her own two feet, you mustn't take advantage of her." To which everyone replied, "Who would dare to mess with her? She'd rip our heads off if we ever get into a minor disagreement!' Ace : "My ex-wife is far too naive, you shouldn't toy with her feelings" And yet people would say, "I’m sorry? We've never seen a naive woman act so unapologetically!' Ace: "Come, darling. Let me introduce you to this powerful figure!" To which the powerful figure responded with a deep bow, "No, no, she's the boss around these parts!” Since then, Ace has had to live a double life. He was an almighty CEO during the day, but come night time,he'd be sobbing on his knees, hoping to win Joanna's heart back.
Her deep hatred had turned into extreme disgust.
'Do you want to die? I'll help you!"
Her gaze turned extremely cruel and wild. She wanted nothing but to shoot him to death to vent her hatred for being lied to and fooled, but alas… she could not bring herself to do so.
"Cut the crap! Give Adie back to us. From now on, well have nothing to do with each other!"
However, William shook his head. "I won't tell you where the boy went even if you kill me, because the other party is too dangerous. You guys can't afford to offend that person. If I tell you, you'll be in danger. I've come to a desperate end now, and I'm left with no choice…"
"William Jones!"
Clara was pissed off and kicked him in the stomach. "Do you know how important Adie is to Joanna and me? If you feel a tinge of guilt or regret, you'll tell me immediately. Don't make me kill you!"
William covered his aching belly and was in pain.
