The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 144

“Exactly.”

Her tone was calm.

Seeing his strong reaction, Grace continued, “I’ve made a rough calculation, and by now, you’ve almost

paid off your debt. Shouldn’t you be happy about terminating the agreement? You can continue being

the young master of the Fallen Family.”

Although she said that, clearing his debt had always been his goal.

But…

“Previously, you said that once the debt was repaid, we would have no further contact, that we would

become strangers. Is that true?” Edgar’s gaze was serious.

“Yes,” she replied with determination.

“In that case, I won’t sign. You also mentioned that one year of service is equivalent to three years, but

it’s only been a little over half a month. I haven’t fully repaid it yet!”

His eyebrows furrowed, and his cheeks puffed up as he handed her the termination agreement form.

Grace didn’t reach out to take it, and her expression turned cold once again. “Edgar, stop causing

trouble and sign!”

Feeling quite frustrated by her harshness, Edgar shifted closer to her and grasped her delicate wrist.

His voice trembled a bit as he spoke.

“I took Adrain away, and I pretended to be injured to deceive you. Are you still angry with me? Grace, I

promise I won’t deceive you again. Moreover, you already punished me last night, and I’ve been falsely

accused in the Nancy incident. Our wrongdoings cancel each other out. Don’t be angry

anymore…”

Grace earnestly pulled her hand away. “I’m not angry. It’s precisely because I’m rational that I think I

should let you go. We should both lead peaceful lives separately, which will be good for both of us.”

Did not being angry mean that his actions no longer evoked any emotions in her?

Didn’t this indicate that she no longer cared about him at all, that she no longer harbored resentment or

disgust?

Edgar felt quite miserable.

“Well, you can continue being angry then, because I don’t want to let you go. I won’t sign this.

termination agreement.”

“Edgar!”

Grace furrowed her brows and looked at him darkly. “I’m simply informing you, not seeking your

opinion. Whether you sign it or not, you will have to sign.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Edgar tore the paper to shreds right in front of her, throwing the torn

pieces up towards the ceiling. The white fragments sca t tered like snow, filling the entire room.

Agreeing to sign the divorce papers with her back then was the biggest regret of his life.

This time, he absolutely wouldn’t allow himself to regret it again!

He stubbornly locked eyes with her, his black gaze provoking. “I tore it up. Does that make you angry?

If you’re capable, call in Fifteen and Seventeen to beat me up. Even if they leave me half-dead, as long

as I have a breath left, I won’t sign!”

Some shredded paper landed on Grace’s head, igniting an inexplicable anger that surged to her

temples.

“Fine, fine! Do you enjoy seeking abuse?”

Grace ground her teeth, took a few deep breaths, and managed to suppress the urge to claw him to

death.

“You better pray that your illness takes a bit longer to heal while my anger subsides quickly. Otherwise,

I can’t guarantee what Fifteen and the others might do to you!”

After she finished speaking, she stood up, gave him a disdainful look from above, and left the room.

Edgar felt a bit uneasy when he realized she was genuinely angry.

Getting beaten up would still hurt, and he wasn’t a masochist. But signing the document was absolutely

impossible!

The Evans family villa.

Jade sat in the study, reviewing reports. The maid brought her coffee, but in her agitated state, Jade

knocked over everything on the desk with a sudden outburst.

With a cra ck, the maid trembled in fear as her hands shook, accidentally spilling the coffee on the floor

and breaking the cup.

“I’m sorry, Miss! It was an accident!”

Jade gave her a cold glance, and her already sour mood worsened.

“You can’t even handle serving coffee properly. What use do I have for you? You only bring me trouble.

Get out today and disappear from my sight forever!”

The maid turned pale, crying and begging for mercy. “Miss, I truly made a mistake. Please don’t

dismiss me. I really need this job! I beg you!”

“Get out!”

With a furious shout, the commotion attracted the attention of the housekeeper outside, who quickly

came in and forcibly dragged the sobbing maid away. The room finally fell silent, and Jade took out her

phone to make a call.

The Fallen Family’s recovery was happening too quickly, and Grace had already started targeting

her. During this period, all of the Evans family’s ongoing businesses faced stat, and

pre-secured projects were sna tched away by the Fallen Group or Anlin Real Estate.

This caused a significant decline in the Evans family’s revenue.

Jade was almost driven mad. She had spent a fortune sending people to investigate Grace’s

background, but so far, there had been no response. Just as she was thinking about it, the call.

connected,

“Miss Evans, we’ve checked three times, and her identity is indeed that of an orphan from Frant City

Welfare Institute. She has no parents or any other relatives.”

How could Jade believe that? “What about before she was sent to the welfare institute? What

happened before that? If she never left the welfare institute, how could she be Rin Sakuragawas

master? How are you people handling this?”

“I’m sorry, Miss Evans; we did our best. This is the result of our investigation.”

Jade angrily hung up the phone and grabbed the cup from the table, throwing it against the wall.

Chapter 141

Who exactly was this despicable woman? So many people were sent out to investigate, but they

couldn’t find her true identity!

She sat dejectedly in her chair, filled with anger but with nowhere to vent it.

Not being able to find out Grace’s identity meant she would never know her opponent’s trump cards,

and she wouldn’t be able to continue fighting against her. But she couldn’t just stand by and watch this

despicable woman ruin the Evans family!

Feeling helpless and at a loss, Jade was suddenly interrupted by the butler knocking on the door.

“Miss, there’s someone outside looking for you. He says he’s from the Smith family in S City.”

She held her forehead, feeling dizzy from anger. “What Smith family? I don’t know them; don’t let them

in!”

“Yes.” The butler bent over and was about to leave.

“Wait!”

Jade called him back. Why would someone from the Smith family come looking for her?

After thinking for a moment, she decided to meet with them. “My place is too messy, and I don’t want to

scare off an important guest. Take them to the most secluded small meeting room.”

After giving instructions, she returned to her room and changed into an elegant outfit, applying beautiful

makeup before heading to the meeting room. She pushed open the door, and the person was already

waiting inside.

It was a tall and sturdy man, estimating around 1.9 meters in height. His facial features were decent,

and he looked quite handsome, dressed in a black suit.

Noticing her arrival, the man smiled slightly. “Miss Evans, hello.”

Jade nodded politely, curious. “I don’t know which member of the Smith family you are.”

The man smiled and said, “You don’t need to know my identity. You just need to know that I’m here to

help you.”

“To help me?”

about

Jade was puzzled. “Although my Evans family is far inferior to the Smith family, we still hold a

respectable position in the prominent circles of Frant City. At least we never have to worry food and

drink. I don’t see what help I would need.”

The man directly exposed her. “Miss Evans, there’s no need to pretend. My master is aware that you’ve

been troubled by the Fallen Family and someone else recently, so he specifically sent me to help you.”

Jade found it hard to believe.

With Patric’s favoritism towards that despicable Grace, would there really be someone in the Smith

family who didn’t want her to fare well?

“Your master?”

“Yes.”

The man nodded and continued, “To show my sincerity, I’ve brought you a gift. I’m sure you’ll love

it.”

He clapped his hands, and someone immediately brought in a large sack from outside.

With suspicion, Jade approached and opened it, only to be startled and pale-faced. She fell to the

ground.
