A Vengeful Ex-Wife

Chapter 392 A Date

Maria chuckled and said arrogantly, "Why are you scolding me? I'm not the one having an affair with your husband. You idiot! Do you think I will fall in love with a guy like him? He doesn't even deserve to lick my shoes.

Haven't you heard the saying? How could a person who once loved an eagle love a sparrow?" Colby could never compare with James.

In a fit of fury, Rosa was about to remove her feet from the broken glass, but Maria told her in a soft voice, "After you finish stepping on the rest of the broken glass, I'll tell you a big secret about your husband!"

Rosa had no choice. The bodyguards forced her to finish walking the rest of the path.

"Argh!" When she finally reached the end, she collapsed to her knees. The floor was covered with blood.

"Do you know what Clayton and Chandler did? Well, just like them, your husband has a second family," Maria sneered. She knew well that there was no such thing as a loyal man in this world. The older ones all had mistresses and illegitimate children, and each of them hid their secrets deeply. A young man like James had hooked up with her even though he had a fiancee.

However, Rosa didn't believe what Maria said at all. She had already guessed that Colby was fooling around with other women, but she couldn't accept that he had a child with any of them. Obviously, she had people relaying information about Colby to her. So far, she had never heard from any of them that

Colby was paying special attention to a particular woman.

At most, he would buy luxury goods for them. But since she wasn't the one earning the money, she couldn't interfere.

Judging by the expression on Rosa's face, Maria could tell that she didn't believe her. "Do you know the woman in the video?" she asked casually.

Rosa's eyes flashed with anger. Of course she knew that woman! She was Colby's secretary. But she was married to his driver, and the two of them even had a son together.

Realization dawned in Rosa's eyes, and she took a deep breath.

'Is the kid actually Colby's son?'

Seeing the change of expression on her face, Maria chuckled. "Pick up the glass shards on the floor and throw them all into the trash can. I'll answer your question after that."

Gnashing her teeth, Rosa forced herself to pick up all the fragments of glass that she had stepped on and threw them into the trash can. Her fair and delicate hands were soon covered with blisters, and she was in so much pain that she could barely breathe. She swore to herself that she would tear Maria to shreds one day and make her pay for this.

"Don't curse me. I'm not the one who slept with your husband," Maria said, blowing on her nails before looking at the extremely embarrassed woman standing in front of her.

"Maria, just pray that you never have another child. If I ever find out that you do, you know what will happen!" Saying that, Rosa burst into wild laughter.

It would be a lie if Maria said that she was unaffected by those words. However, she quickly calmed herself down and replied in a flat tone, "It doesn't matter. James and I are taking contraceptive measures now, so I won't get pregnant for the time being. We'll have another baby, but only after you die. I won't give you the chance you're waiting for."

Rosa gritted her teeth in anger. How she wished she could jump up and scratch Maria's face!

"Your guess is right. The father of the secretary's child is actually your husband. Their son is already several years old, but you haven't noticed it at all. I guess Colby has done a good job of keeping it a secret!" Maria said, clapping her hands. Although Colby was inferior to James in many aspects, he was not easy to deal with.

Now that she had revealed his secret to Rosa, he would definitely try to deal with her in the future.

Hearing the truth out loud robbed Rosa of her breath. Enduring the wave of dizziness that came over her, she said, "How long do you think you can be happy? James is also a man. Let me tell you, there is no man in this world who doesn't cheat on his wife. Maria, I will wait for the day when you end up with a more miserable fate than me!"

"Mrs. Zheng, you're being delusional. Like I said, I won't give you the chance. Neither will I give James the chance to cheat on me!"

"I have done what you asked me to do. Let my daughter go!" Rosa demanded.

Maria stood up, smoothed her clothes, and walked over to Rosa. Blinking at her innocently, she asked, "Daughter? What's wrong with your daughter?"

Rosa's face turned completely red. "Maria..."

Before she could say anything else, the door of the lounge swung open, and a woman walked out.

Rosa didn't know the woman, but the latter walked up to her and said, "Mom, help me!" She sounded almost identical to Ines!

It was not until then that Rosa realized that she had been fooled by Maria. At that moment, the phone in her handbag rang. She fished it out with trembling fingers and found that she was getting a

call from the maid in the US.

She slid the answer key and asked, "Why didn't you answer the phone just now? Where is Ines?"

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Zheng. I wasn't getting any signal just now. Ines is with me.

Don't worry. She's fine." 'Maria lied to me!'

The more Rosa thought about it, the more furious she became. To make it worse, Maria still stood in front of her, staring at her with disdain. She was so angry that she couldn't handle it at all. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Before leaving Leopard Club, Maria asked her bodyguards to call an ambulance, and made sure to cover up the incident completely.

After that, she didn't go back to James' villa. She asked the driver to leave first before driving alone to a snack bar on the street.

Once she found a parking space, she called Ethan. "I'm at a snack bar right now. Do you want to meet me here? It's my treat."

Taking a look at the caller ID again in shock, Ethan asked, "Maria, is that really you?" Maria opened the car window and took a breath of fresh air. "Aren't you coming or not?"

"Why are you calling me? Does James know about this? I'm afraid he will beat me up." Ethan was right to be worried, of course. James was extremely possessive of Maria.

"Don't worry. I'll protect you. Come on!" Maria said reassuringly.

"Okay."

By the time Ethan arrived, Maria had ordered some food and opened a bottle of beer.

"Ethan, do you like the food here?" Obviously, she was asking if a man of his stature was okay with eating at such a place. After all, she now knew that he was from the Mu family.

However, Ethan didn't notice the implication in her words, and just replied casually, "Of course. I often eat at snack bars with my friends, but I haven't come to this one before. I'll take you to the one I usually eat at some other day. The food there is amazing!"

Maria was speechless. This man was indeed a chatterbox.

She handed a bottle of beer to him, and the two of them clinked their bottles together. Then, she listened as he continued to talk. "They craft their own beer there. Once, just seven of us finish two whole kegs!"

After a while, he abruptly stopped talking and shot Maria a strange look. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

"Why did you stop?" Maria asked in surprise.

"Why are having a date alone? Where is James?"

Maria almost choked on her food. Were they having a date? "You gave me a red packet during the Spring Festival, but I didn't invite you to dinner. Give me a cigarette."

When she saw him smoking, she suddenly had the urge to smoke, too.

"Didn't you quit smoking?" Ethan was confused. This woman had once told him that the best way to quit smoking was to eat something. In retrospect, he realized that she had quit because she was pregnant with Bob. No wonder she had been able to quit so easily.

"Yes, I did. That's why I don't have any cigarettes with me," Maria answered flatly. "Now, give me one. I haven't smoked in a long time."

"No. you have to think about your son. If James finds out that I'm on a date with you and even let you smoke, he'll skin me alive," Ethan said, hastily shoving the box of cigarettes back into his pocket, and throwing his cigarette away.

Maria chuckled. "Are you that afraid of him?"

"Aren't you afraid?" Ethan asked in reply.
