Hunting for His EX-Wife

Anna’s mind was lost in thought until her mother called, urging her to deliver breakfast. She snapped out of it and brought the meal to the hospital.

Mrs. Miller was thrilled to see Anna and pulled her over to sit beside her.

“I never expected my precious daughter would find such an excellent boyfriend. It seems like the Miller family can finally have a good life from now on. How is your preparation for arranging work for your older brother at the Harrison Group going? Have you called Jimmy?” Mrs. Miller asked anxiously.

Gavyn also appeared before Anna, his face greedy as ever.

“Dear sister, could you… give me some pocket money first? You know I just got out and still has some friends who need ‘taking care’ of. But don’t worry, when I get my salary from the Harrison Group job, I will definitely pay you back,” Gavyn suggested eagerly.

Mrs. Miller agreed wholeheartedly with her son’s proposal.

“That’s right! How could a man not have any money on him? People will laugh at him! Anna, hurry up and give your older brother some money so he can save face,” Mrs. Miller added sternly.

Anna’s lips curled into a faint mockery as she replied calmly, “I don’t have any money.”

Both Gavyn and Mrs. Miller looked extremely displeased by what they heard.

“Do you plan on ignoring us now that you’ve met someone from high society? I raised you for nothing!” Mrs. Miller scolded angrily with no trace of affection left in her expression.

Anna felt heartbroken by her mother’s reproachful tone and angry gaze towards herself; she slowly stood up while looking at both of them before finally settling upon Mr. Miller who remained unconscious throughout their conversation.

“Although Jimmy paid for dad’s medical expenses, I still owe him that amount which means every penny I earn after necessary living expenses won’t be spent recklessly. I won’t let anyone use me anymore or try to get more out of me. You can forget about trying because I won’t ask Jimmy for even one cent. I hope this clears things up.”

Despite appearing calm on the outside; inside Anna felt bitter due to how much pain she had caused herself through being reprimanded by family members who were supposed to love her unconditionally .

“You… you idiot. You climbed up to a rich man and didn’t even take a penny from him. Do you want him to sleep with you for free? Let me tell you, I don’t agree. If you don’t want the money, I’ll ask him for it,” Gavyn said as he walked towards the door.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“If you’re not afraid of being sent back in there again, then go find him with your head held high,” Anna said coldly.

Her words made Gavyn stop in his tracks out of fear.

Anna approached two nurses and asked them to take good care of her father before leaving the hospital room. She would rather leave than face her mother and older brother’s greedy eyes inside the room.

Back at her rented apartment, Anna felt uneasy thinking about her mother and brother’s greediness. She could imagine that as soon as she had contact with Jimmy, they would force her to ask for money from him.

If they knew that she was only doing business with Jimmy, would they still pressure her?

…

Perhaps too tired from everything that happened, Anna fell asleep on her bed until she was awakened by the ringing phone next to her ear. She opened her sleepy eyes and glanced outside; it was already dark outside.

Feeling surprised that she had slept through an entire afternoon might have been due to last night… she blushed at the thought of what happened between her and Jimmy last night.

Anna quickly picked up the incessantly ringing phone but frowned when she saw Jimmy’s number flashing on screen. Without any hesitation, Anna hung up and threw the phone aside, thinking if she didn’t answer his calls, he wouldn’t call again, but much to her surprise, it kept ringing non-stop!

“Jimmy, are you bored or something?” Irritated by all this calling, Anna answered angrily into the phone while furrowing her eyebrows full of anger

On hearing this angry shout from Anna over his call, Jimmy wasn’t upset instead, he smiled slightly at how cute she sounded when angry.

“I’m downstairs.” His deep voice echoed slowly in Anna’s ear.

He was downstairs?

Anna immediately jumped out of bed and ran to the window, where she saw his limited edition sports car parked downstairs.

What does he want?

“Come down, I’m waiting for you downstairs.”

Jimmy’s magnetic voice echoed in her ear once again. Anna pursed her lips with a sarcastic expression on her pretty face.

“Sorry, I don’t have time.”

Anna refused without hesitation.

Jimmy seemed to have expected that she would refuse. A mysterious smile appeared on his lips.

“I can come up and find you.”

“I won’t open the door for you.”

Anna shouted anxiously.

Jimmy narrowed his eyes and said, “Your house has poor sound insulation. I don’t mind knocking on the door and attracting your neighbors’ attention. With my identity, I believe it will cause them to speculate and gossip about us. And then it will be you who is troubled by their curiosity.”

With a sly smile always present on his lips, Jimmy spoke slowly but confidently.

After she heard Jimmy’s threat, anger ignited in Anna’s eyes.

“I’ll come down right away,” Anna gritted her teeth as she spoke.

She glanced at herself wearing only conservative pajamas before grabbing a coat at random from her closet. She rushed out of the room fearing that Jimmy might become too impatient while waiting for her upstairs.

As soon as Jimmy saw Anna rushing out of the apartment building with an angry expression on her face, he smiled slightly with satisfaction.

He had been sitting in his car all along but when he saw Anna approaching him with anger blazing in those beautiful eyes of hers; he got off.

Anna walked up to him furiously, staring daggers into him as if daring him to make any move against her.

“What do you want, Mr Harrison? I don’t have time or interest in playing these boring games with you.” Anna spoke coldly without mincing words or showing any sign of weakness towards Jimmy’s advances

“I’m taking you somewhere,” replied Jimmy calmly ignoring Anna’s anger altogether

Opening the car door like a true gentleman would do; His deep voice made Anna’s ears tingle slightly.

Jimmy’s behavior left Anna feeling puzzled; Her beautiful star-like eyes were filled with confusion

“No thanks,” said Anna firmly refusing even more strongly than before while pulling tightly around herself what little clothing covered most parts of body

When Jimmy saw the Pikachu patterned pajamas under Anna’s coat, his deep eyes were filled with warmth. He couldn’t believe that after all these years, she still loved Pikachu so much. It reminded him of the time when they fought over a Pikachu patterned item.

Back then, life was simple and carefree.

“Anna, I finally found you,” Jimmy said as he suddenly embraced her. In that moment, he felt comfort and satisfaction flood his heart.
