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.
Ethan gulped hard and quickly said, "The hospital has professional staff that can take care of me. You guys are busy. You really don't have to do this."
"I'm serious. You saved her, so I must do something for you to repay you. You're not allowed to refuse!"
Ace's attitude was firm. He urged, "Open your mouth and eat the congee!"
Ethan had no choice but to give in.
Before he had finished the first spoonful, Ace was already feeding him another. In the end, Ethan was so full that he felt like his stomach was gonna burst.
Oh god, what sin had he committed to deserve this? He saved someone's life and even broke his leg doing so, but he now had to be a tool in those two's argument. He felt like the most miserable man in the world!
When Joanna saw that he had finished the congee, she immediately brought out an apple, peeled it with a knife, and handed it to him. " Having some fruit after dinner is good for digestion."
