My Ex, Please Love Me Again

Arthur took over the ring from Anya and smiled all at once, “In fact, I don’t need to do it for you. He’s in the next-door building here. You can give it back to him by yourself.”

Anya was a bit confused and wondered why Phil was in hospital too.

Arthur explained in a seemingly casual way, “Oh, here’s the thing. He has been hitting the bottle these days and got gastrorrhagia. He spit out blood terribly and we took him to hospital. He is having an intravenous drip now.”

Anya stared at Arthur and she had no idea if she should be mad at him or not.

He seemed to explain to her casually but in fact, he was seeking sympathy for Phil.

Did he imply that Phil had been drinking excessively because of her?

Did he want to make her feel guilty deliberately?NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

What a good bro of Phil!

But Arthur would be disappointed. She didn’t feel guilty at all. She thought of her mother and cursed that he just asked for it himself!

And, he also made the lawyer to pass his words that she exchanged everything she had now with her body in the past four years. He was so mean and low. Why should she show any sympathy on him now?

Then she lowered her eyes and said coldly, “Please do me he favor. I don’t think he wants to see me.”

Anya felt disgusted with Phil deeply and Arthur couldn’t push her any more. He just put the ring away.

In fact, he did it to create a chance for Phil to meet her. Meeting her might cheer him up a bit. Or, it could make things worse as well.

But Arthur didn’t insist after seeing Anya’s attitude towards him. He would help her return the ring to Phil.

After that, Anya and Arthur got in the car. Arthur drove her to the hotel. Then she went upstairs to clean herself up with the suitcase in hand.

There weren’t too many things in the suitcase. She found some underwear, some clothes and the personal certificates. She also found her laptop.

Without doubt, the laptop was a necessity for her.

Anya couldn’t figure out what Phil was thinking. In her eyes, he must be mad at her and couldn’t wait to strangle her. But he was so thoughtful that he had told the maid to pack some necessities and brought the suitcase to her.

But she didn’t feel like guessing. They had been divorced anyway. She just didn’t care about it any more.

She took a shower and got changed. Then she rushed downstairs because Arthur was till waiting for her there.

While she was bathing and cleaning herself up, Anya chilled out. She knew she had to pull herself out from the marriage with Phil first. No matter how, they had lived together for four years and she had built some habits. But she knew she had to rely on herself from now on.

Though she refused to open her heart and talk with Phil, she had to admit that Phil had spoiled her.

Suddenly, she got the meaning of the the sentence that she went through online, “Spoil the woman till no other man can stand her. Then she’ll be yours forever.”

She doubted that Phil treated her like that. He was indulged to her on everything. He didn’t get mad when she gave him the cold shoulder or cared none about him. He tolerated it when she kept acting up and fussing over again and again. She was treated like a princess and she didn’t have to do anything.

Maisie, Emelia and Nina had arrived when Arthur reached home with Anya in the car. They were waiting for her.

They congratulated her the moment they saw her. Nina said with a sweet smile, “We heard Lorie had regained consciousness. It’s a great news.”

“Congratulations!”

“You’re such a nice person. God must be on your side and surprise you.”

Anya was moved, “The doctor said it was a miracle. I’ve been happy and excited the whole day.”

Jean took her to sit down on the couch and poured a cup of tea for her, “I heard that you were going to study abroad. Lorie is better now. Would you like to stick with the plan?”

Jean accepted Arthur’s request and helped Phil persuade Anya to stick with the plan of studying abroad.

Jean had discussed with the girls before Anya arrived. They thought it would be better for Anya to go study abroad. They all had made certain accomplishments in their own fields, so they supported Anya to further study and improve herself to become a better woman.

No man was reliable. So, women must reply on themselves.

To be more realistic, no one was as reliable as oneself.

As a result, Jean brought up the topic, and they kept talking her into it in turns.

Anya took a sip of the tea and said, “I’m gonna give up the plan of studying abroad. My mother finally shows the sign of waking up. I must stay here for her.”

“Did the doctor tell when she would wake up?” Emelia didn’t go straight to the point but asked softly first.

“No, he didn’t.” Anya shook her head.

“Arthur told me it was impossible to give the specific time. Patients are different in physical fitness and their brain damage levels are not the same.” said Jean.

“Don’t you think it unnecessary to stay?”

Arthur was a doctor and whatever he had told Jean was based on medical science. Anya pursed her lips and stopped talking. In fact, she had just made up her mind to stay for her mother and keep her company until she finally woke up.

“Well, I think you’d better go study abroad first. You can come back to visit her when she finally regains consciousness.” said Nina.

“And you don’t have to worry about it. She’s got responsible and devoted doctors, nurses and nursing workers. She’ll be fine.”

“Emelia and I have basically settled down in Riverside City now. We can visit Lorie for you from time to time if you’re still worried about it. We’ll tell you the latest information from our perspectives. You trust us, don’t you?” said Maisie.

“Don’t be silly. Of course I trust you.” said Anya, immediately.

Unexpectedly, Maisie and the other girls were so kind-hearted and offered to visit and take care of Lorie for her.

She felt relieved when she thought the girls would pay close attention to her mother’s health condition. They were so kind. She didn’t see why she couldn’t trust them.

“As the saying goes that love will perish, but not knowledge. You’re so young and you have to make a good plan of your future.” said Nina.

“To be honest, it’ll cost an arm and a leg for Lorie to do the rehabilitation in the coming years even if she regains consciousness. Think twice. How can you afford it if you don’t have a promising future?”

Anya looked at them and said, “So, you all think I should stick with the plan and go study abroad?”

“Yep.” Emelia nodded heavily, “Telling from our experiences, the most important thing is that we become better and stronger ourselves.”

Anya spoke honestly and sighed lightly, “I’ve decided to give up the chance to study abroad. But I am swayed now.”

Anya didn’t expect that all of them would approve of the plan of studying abroad. She trusted them and was convinced by them.
