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.

Ace casually flipped through the pile of documents. Then, his mouth curved up into a slight and cold smile. "Did you misinterpret her real character?"
"Misinterpret?"
Jack swallowed nervously. "Over the years, Mrs. Moran has been so nice and loyal to you," he boldly explained. "She was obedient at home and had always upheld a good public image. She's a great example of a good wife and lady. As for her sudden change in temperament… I think the responsibility lies on you, Mr. Moran."
Ace's face turned cold. "Me?"
"Of course!"
Jack could not help but fight for Joanna despite the risk of getting fired. "All these years, you were cold and heartless to Mrs. Moran. Not to mention, you even cheated on her. If you hadn't hurt her, why would she have gotten involved with a playboy like Liam? She wouldn't have established the Stellar Group with him to fight Moran Group…"
