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.
"Daddy Q, we came to see you with Mommy!" Abigail skipped to the man with a bright smile as if she were a little angel.
Mr. Q was still wearing a mask at the time, but his alluring charm was evident as he lifted his gaze, especially when her eyes met his.
With that, both of them froze as though sparks were flying in the air between them.
"I heard from the kids that you like eating fish, especially steamed grouper … So I'm making this just for you. I hope you like it." Mr. Q said in a calm tone. It sounded as if they had been married for years, and this was a special gift for his one and only wife.
The little ones looked towards Joanna, their innocent eyes glittering with pride. "See, Mommy? We told you Daddy Q is great!"
Joanna was speechless. 'What the heck is this guy saying? It's not even like we're saying that he's making this just for me? He's clearly just putting on an act to win the kids over!'
