President’s Secret Obsession With Ex-wife

His lips pursed tightly, and with the hand that wasn’t injured, he pressed the answer button, mulling over what to say when Edward’s words of relief came from over there.

“Nick, you’ve done a good job this time, you finally know what’s most important, just don’t come tonight, I don’t blame you this time.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Nick narrowed his eyes, wondering for a moment why he’d said that.

After all, most of the previous calls to him had been about Victoria.

But tonight, it didn’t seem that way.

Is it because of that big acquisition that just closed?

If it wasn’t for that, Nick couldn’t really think of anything else he’d done to make him so happy, so naturally he returned.

“Grandpa, that’s what I should do, I’ll keep trying.”

But to Edward, these words carried a different meaning.

Tonight, he was initially angry, instructing Nick to pick up Victoria. However, Nick seemed reluctant, mentioning that he had to work overtime.

Who values work over his wife?

Edward had been waiting for Nick and Victoria to arrive, eager to introduce Victoria to others in a grand manner. Over these years, Tori had endured much injustice. Even now, many people still don’t know her identity.

So Edward, who had felt nothing but annoyance when he saw their delay, was now relieved to hear the good news.

“Well, you’ll keep it that way from now on.”

Nick was relieved to think that his grandfather was starting to pay attention to the company instead of just mentioning the woman, and he was much less agitated.

“I know.”

When he hung up the phone, a flash of surprise appeared all over Edward’s face.

It seems that by the end of this year, he will finally see his great-grandchild.

But he hadn’t even realized that his chat with Nick wasn’t the same thing at all.

And outside the door, Victoria’s face sank as she looked over at Kevin, who was sitting on the sidelines.

“What do you think? Disappearing for so many years, ready to be a beggar all the time afterward?!”

Kevin scratched his hair in annoyance, knowing he was in the wrong, “You went to see my parents?”

“Auntie and Uncle have been waiting for you to return, you are not at home, Alexia runs rampant., you were the one who insisted on marrying her in the first place, and now you run away on your own? Are you still a man Kevin!”

Hearing Victoria’s words, Kevin said, “Just pretend you’ve never seen me before, okay? Indeed, I’m not a man, my parents shouldn’t have given birth to me in the first place!”

Victoria’s brows tightened at the sight of this resistance on his part.

“You have to go back to see them, they look forward to your call every day, Alexia she …”

“Don’t mention that woman to me!”

Kevin continued to scratch his hair in annoyance and glanced around the hospital room.

“Anyway, I can’t afford to pay that gentleman’s medical bills, and you said I was a beggar, so now that you’re okay, I’m leaving.”

He got up and lifted his feet to leave.

“Kevin!”

Victoria grabbed his arm, her brow furrowing.

“How did you get like this …”

When she used to live in her uncle’s house, Kevin was still relatively filial and had a shy personality, how could he have changed so much in a few years.

“Your parents are afraid that you won’t be able to find a wife in the future, so they treat Alexia exceptionally well. Last time, when Alexia drove away your father’s car, making him walk, he collapsed by the roadside from heatstroke. Even then, he asked me not to blame her, saying that only she is willing to marry you. The matters of taking clients’ money and borrowing from loan sharks have become widely known. In the eyes of your father, only Alexia stands by you through thick and thin.”

Kevin’s throat choked at the words and he gritted his teeth, “That bitch.”

Victoria took a deep breath.

She was just about to speak when her uncle unexpectedly called.

Kevin sees the blinking nickname and almost subconsciously goes to run away, but Victoria holds him in place.

“You should at least talk to him!”

“Fuck off Victoria, who do you think you are, things are much more complicated in your family than ours, mind your own business!”
