The Regretful Ex-wife by Iced Coffee

Chapter 0004

Could Cecilia and Sean be…

No, that couldn’t be! Tina immediately pushed this thought out of her mind. Firstly, she’d never introduced Sean to Cecilia throughout their marriage. Secondly, with Cecilia’s looks and family background, how could she possibly be interested in a loser like Sean?

The Worthington family wasn’t considered prestigious in Skye City, but it was still an old family with a long history. Sean had to have picked up or stolen the hair clip from somewhere! After all, if he could forge so many love letters to himself, nothing would stop him from doing more disgusting stuff.

Still, to be safe, Tina decided to call Cecilia to probe her a little. She could cheat on Sean, but there was no way she would allow him to do

the same to her.

Tina called Cecilia, but no one answered. She frowned. Why wasn’t her call being answered? Then, she figured Cecilia was probably busy with work at this hour. She would call her later.

There was still some time before she needed to accompany Wayne to Ellipse Corporation. Later, they would be having dinner together. Sh had to primp and prepare for that.

Tina put her phone down. Then, she put the hair clip back into the b before sitting down and doing her makeup.

At 2:30 pm, Sean arrived at Ellipse Corporation in his Maybach. A familiar yet unfamiliar feeling washed over him as he took in the towering building. A lot of changed over the past five years, including his company.

It was because of this that Sean had arrived half an hour earlier. He wanted to see what things were like now. He walked into the building while lamenting the passage of time.

The layout of the lobby was still the same as it’d been in the past. It was just larger than before. Diego had done a good job.

Sean shook his head with a smile. He was about to stroll around the lobby when the elevator nearby dinged. The doors slid open to reveal a couple. They walked out while laughing and chatting with each other.

The man wore a navy blue suit and had his hair gelled back. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked to be about 27 or 28. The woman wore a blue pleated dress. Her hair was pulled back in an updo, and her makeup had been done flawlessly.

It was Tina. “You were amazing, Wayne! You actually won over someone as picky as Mr. Walker. If you manage to score this deal, you’ll earn several millions in profit, right?”

“Heh. I’d say Mr. Walker and I are old friends by now. A simple conversation with him is all I need to get that deal,” Wayne said.

“Do you have some time in a couple of days?”

“What’s up?”

“My mom’s been wanting to meet you. She wanted to invite you ov

for a meal,” Tina said.

Wayne chuckled. “Sure! She doesn’t need to stand on ceremony with

me.”

“Okay. I’ll let her know, then.” Tina smiled demurely. When she was with Wayne, she displayed an enthusiasm and gentleness that Sean had never seen.

Sean saw them, but he didn’t even bat an eye. At this moment, Tina and Wayne arrived at the building’s entrance. They ran right into Sean.

When Tina saw him, she furrowed her brows in disgust. “What are you doing here?”

“Why can’t I be here if you can?” Sean looked at her calmly. The world was such a small place.

“Ha!” Tina’s gaze was filled with mockery. “I’m here to accompany Wayne while he negotiates a business deal. What about you? Are you here to interview to be a security guard, or did you come to beg me to remarry you? That’s not gonna happen!”

“A remarriage?” Sean sneered. “You think too highly of yourself. I’m just returning to my company.”

“Your company?” Tina looked like she’d just heard the world’s biggest joke. Her disgust was obvious as she said, “Do I really need to point this out to you? This is Ellipse Corporation, Skye City’s biggest corporation. It has a net worth of 30 billion dollars!”

“So?” Sean looked at Tina calmly.

“So, would it kill you not to brag?” Tina’s blood boiled when she saw how calm Sean was pretending to be.

Sean frowned. Why hadn’t he ever realized how vulgar and coarse

Tina was?

At this moment, Wayne said, “Alright, Tina. There’s no need to get mad over someone like him. Since he likes making himself seem better than he is, just let him be. You’re one of Skye City’s top ten outstanding entrepreneurs now; he’s just jealous of you.”

He gave Sean a condescending look. A peasant like Sean was beneath him.

“It would do you good to take a leaf out of Wayne’s book, Sean. Look at what a perfect gentleman he is!” Tina snapped.

Sean didn’t want to waste his breath on Tina. He sidestepped her and Wayne to head into the building.

“Hold it!” Tina stopped him.

“What now?” Sean frowned.

“We haven’t settled the compensation for the divorce yet,” Tina said coldly.

“I don’t need your compensation. Let’s just get the divorce over with. Don’t worry, I won’t harass you after we’re divorced.” Sean turned to

leave.

“Me, compensate you? Who do you think you are?” Tina barked out an exasperated laugh at his words.

“What do you mean, then?” Sean stopped to look at her icily.

“You’re the one who needs to compensate me! You owe me for the mental distress you’ve caused me over the past five years of our

marriage!”

“I caused you mental distress?” Sean couldn’t help laughing. “You’re the one who had an affair, yet you want me to compensate you mental distress. I thought we could be civil after the divorce, but you’ve really proven me wrong. How far are you gonna go, Tina?”

“Be civil? How dare you say that to me!” Tina gave him a scornful look. “The mere sight of you disgusts me now. I never would’ve expected you to be such a creep.”

“And how am I a creep?” Sean frowned.

“How else would you explain those love letters?” Tina snarled.

Sean’s eyes gleamed. So, she’d seen the letters. This meant she’d also seen the hair clip. Did she really not care about it at all?

Though he didn’t want to waste his breath on an explanation, he still said, “Those love letters that you’re referring to are real.”

“Oh, cut the crap,” Tina snapped. “Who do you think you are? Why would the princess of a country and a former president’s daughter write you love letters? How highly do you think of yourself?”

“Wait, something like that actually happened?” Wayne looked like he’d seen it all now.

“Yeah. This loser secretly forged a whole bunch of love letters and even stole some girl’s hair clip. God, he disgusts me so much!”

Wayne burst into laughter. He stepped forward to pat Sean on the shoulder. “You’re really something, dude. I admire your pluck!”

Sean didn’t say anything, but his expression darkened. He looked at Tina. “We used to be husband and wife. Do you really have to slander me like this?”

“Slander? Why would I need to slander someone like you? Don’t tell me you’re afraid of people talking about the dirty things that you had the nerve to do.”

“I’ve already explained the love letters to you. And isn’t that hair. yours?”

“What rubbish. My hair clip’s been in my drawer this whole time! No you’d better come clean about where you got that hair clip from. D you steal it from my best friend?”

“Your best friend?” Sean’s mind buzzed. Had he gotten the wrong person this whole time?
