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.
Joanna held her chin in both hands like she was a flower, then said cutely. "You get to receive the heartfelt gratitude and adoration from this beautiful flower!"
"Nope, I need you to show more sincerity than that!"
Vernom waved her away, obviously disinterested. He casually lay down onto the couch and said while leisurely shaking his leg." The price for my service usually starts at 100 million dollars. You obviously want me to do it for free. No way."
Joanna was pissed off.
The guy had such a punchable face right now.
However, she needed his help, she could only put on her best fake smile and asked, "Okay, tell me, what do you want?"
Vernom suddenly became interested. He sat upright and said seriously. "You know, I'm going to be thirty in another year or two. My family is worried about my personal life, so…"
"I refuse!"
