The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 675
Seraphina took a deep breath and decided to take a risk for the sake of her happiness. Right before Jovan could hang up on her, she quickly asked,’ Out of curiosity, where have you been hiding recently? Didn’t you promise to take Joanna away from the City? Why is she still strutting around here? I’m afraid she’ll get involved with Ace again if you don’t step in; you would’ve given up your eyes and blood to Ace for nothing then!"
Seraphina couldn’t understand Jovan’s willingness to give up his eyes and blood to save the man Joanna loved, which had ultimately turned him into a useless man. People would certainly call him a naive and lovestruck fool. Even Seraphina felt that she had to hand it to him because she would never make such sacrifices for Ace. Unfortunately, Jovan’s sacrifices had only
gotten him half a year with Joanna. After that, she did whatever she wanted, and his sacrifices became futile. It was really pitiful!
’It’s none of your business. Plus, I’m not you-l love her and wish her happiness. Even though you say you love Ace, you put your happiness first instead of his." Jovan’s blunt comment rendered her speechless.
Furious, she said, "Why are you telling me this? Yes, you’re very noble... But weren’t you the one who caused this mess? I was just your pawn, and I did everything under your orders. You even hired the man who did the surgery on Ace!"
’If you’re really my pawn, are you willing to stop if I ask you to?"
’Stop?" Clenching her fists, Seraphina demanded angrily, "What do you mean?"
’Stop meddling in it and let him have his surgery. If he remembers anything, tell him that it was my idea, and that you were a victim too. But if you want to stop the surgery, you have to bear the consequences alone. Can you do that?" Jovan provided
Seraphina with two options. She could choose to let the surgery go on and let Jovan take the blame, or stop the surgery and deal with the consequences on her own.
’Umm... I know what I should do. It’s none of your business." Seraphina hurriedly hung up the call, possibly out of guilt.
There was an ancient, abandoned residence located away from the hustle and bustle of the City. The surrounding neighbors had all moved away, making the residence look very desolate and frightening at night.
"It’s getting late, Master Jovan. Don’t you want to go to bed?" A young woman called Eloise Pierce sighed and tried to persuade Jovan. She was responsible for taking care of Jovan. After Jovan moved back to the City, he moved to this old and remote residence alone and was solely under Eloise’s care. At first, Eloise did it for the money, but gradually she wavered.
"You miss Miss Pierce so much that you can’t even eat or sleep properly, but what about her? It looks like she doesn’t think of you at all! I read tabloids recently and they’re saying that she’s been seen with both Mr. Baldwin and Mr. Moran. Meanwhile, you’re here suffering. She’s a heartless witch!" Crying, Eloise complained about the injustice Jovan had faced.
Jovan’s gaze instantly turned cold, and he growled, "Be silent!" ’I won’t stop even if you want to drive me away or hit me, Master Jovan. Miss Pierce is really unworthy of your love and care. You have to pull yourself together, okay?" She threw herself at him and stared at his handsome face. "Let me take you to her and make her take care of you. It’s all because of her that you ended up like this!"
"No, it’s fine." Jovan sounded gloomy and pathetic. An existence like this made him wonder if he was still alive, and he had no courage to meet Joanna again. He sighed and said lightly, "I decided to leave her to set her free, and I don’t regret it."
Knowing Joanna’s character, she would not say no if he wanted to use her guilt to make her take care of him for the rest of his life. She would’ve readily abandoned her brother she had just been reunited with, her children, and her career half a year ago to lead a secluded life with him in Varangia, if Jovan had asked.
During those six months, she took care of him as if he was a baby and never complained. Jovan felt it was enough; in his opinion, it had been more than worth it giving up his eyes and body in exchange for having her by his side for that time. Those memories were something he looked back on fondly, and he couldn’t ask for more.
However, Eloise couldn’t figure out why the smart, sensitive, and competitive Jovan had become so passive.
"You haven’t forgotten about Miss Pierce, Master Jovan. Why don’t you just give it a try? What if she still thinks about you?
What if she’ll be surprised to see you, and decides she wants to spend the rest of her life with you?" Eloise refused to give up persuading him because she knew how miserable he was living like this.
’I wouldn’t want that even if she does." Jovan chuckled bitterly and said,’ Any man with dignity wouldn’t want to live like useless trash in front of their beloved." Even though he had been cunning and devious in the past to get what he wanted, as a man, he couldn’t abandon his dignity.
"Ah, Master Jovan... Everyone says that you’re wicked and cunning but you’re actually a caring and loyal man. Yes, they say Ace is honest and righteous, the superior heir of Moran Group, but I find him to be very hypocritical. He isn’t righteous at all!"
"Hmph, what would you know?" Jovan was amused.
"I know. Miss Pierce sacrificed a lot for him. She married him and had his children but he betrayed her and wanted to marry Miss Seraphina instead. Only a man without a conscience can do that!"
