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.
Lucy's instigation immediately made the people who were on Joanna's side immediately switch stances.
With that, Joanna turned into a criminal in their eyes. Everyone began calling her a cruel witch, apart from… Ace and Christopher.
"Silence!" Christopher put up a serious face and approached Joanna.
He then brought out the ring he had prepared for Cecilia, handing it to Ace. "Ace, put this ring on Miss Pierce."
The intelligent Ace instantly understood what Christopher was trying to do, and he nodded gently.
He grabbed Joanna's hand without saying anything, attempting to put the ring on the woman's finger.
Joanna started backing away out of anxiousness. "What are you doing? You can't just put a ring on anybody! Get it off me!"
"Wear it!" Ace demanded.
Hence, the two started struggling to achieve their individual wishes, looking as if they were in a fight.
