The Reborn Wife Of The Tyrant CEO -
Chapter 90 - 89
Chapter 90: Chapter 89
The meal left me all warm and fuzzy, and Joshua was such a chatterbox that the mood was really upbeat.
Then drove to Forevergreen Park, the biggest park in the city, with a massive artificial lake that’s absolutely gorgeous when it’s full of yellow water lilies In summer. In winter, the lake freezes over, and birds sometimes perch on the ice. People buy some bread, crumble it up, and throw it on the ice for the birds to peck at.
Joshua also bought two loaves of bread and handed one to me, "Eliana, you feed them too"
"Sure thing "I opened the bread, crumbled it up with my hands, and threw it onto the lake. Several birds immediately came to peck at it, making quite a scene
After we finished feeding the birds, we strolled around the park. I don’t usually go out for walks, but despite the cold, I was really enjoying myself.
Finally, we arrived at the mountain. The stone steps were fairly clean, with all the snow trampled down by hikers
During the hike, Joshua suddenly started talking about Ariel, I heard she brought a man home to meet her parents, but it wasn’t your husband"
That was quite a sarcastic comment. I paused to catch my breath and replied, 1 know Damon went to find her later. I happened to be at her place at the time"
"You were at her place?" Joshua was taken aback
"Yeah, her mom used to work as a maid at my place. She’s really warm hearted and made some herbal medicines for me. I went over to get it "I talked about these things calmly
Joshua nodded, and we continued climbing in silence
By the time we reached the top, I was sweaty all over After taking off my coat, the cold wind made me feel really refreshed
Looking down at the snow–covered mountain, it was truly beautiful. The town of the city below looked like a winter wonderland, sparkling under the clear sunlight
"Eliana, let me take some photos for you" Joshua put down his backpack and handed me his kitten, "How about taking some photos with the kitten?"
I leaned against the railing, took the kitten, and smiled at him, "Sure, let’s do it"
Joshua was quite good at photography. I had seen the photos he took of Ariel on his Instagram before. After taking a dozen or so photos, he said, "All right, come take a look"
As I was carefully selecting the best shots, someone stood in front of us and I looked up.
Jones appeared before me like a ghost, with a group of his colleagues not far behind sneakily looking our way
"Jones, what are you doing here?" I was totally surprised
"I’m just hanging out with my colleagues. Jones wasn’t looking at me but at Joshua, "You’re hanging out with Ariel’s ex again?"
This guy was getting more and more rude. What’s. ಠ︵ಠಠ ೧ ಠ his problem?
Joshua’s face changed slightly, and he looked at Jones with hostility. He didn’t like it when people talked like that.
"Joshua and I are friends too, it’s perfectly normal for us to go hiking together. Plus, he and Ariel have been broken up for a while now. You don’t need to refer to him like that, I looked at Jones unhappily, "Let me reintroduce him. His name is Joshua"
"Are you divorced from Damon yet? Jones didn’t seem to care about my displeasure and instead asked me
The mention of that got me riled up. Since Joshua was in the know, I didn’t need to beat around the bush, so I vented my dissatisfaction straight up, "Why are you asking me about that? I’ve drafted three or four divorce agreements, but he won’t sign. Didn’t I ask you to persuade him to divorce me? Well, go persuade him!"
Joshua looked at me in surprise again, probably not expecting me to discuss this matter openly in front of him.
Thinking about how angry Damon was when he rushed to Ariel’s house, I felt no regrets at all
"Eliana, don’t be mad" Joshua saw this and quickly comforted me.
"I’m not mad, I just think this guy is unreasonable. Why is he always against me?" I said deliberately for Jones to hear..
It was Damon who was at fault. Why was Jones always blaming me?
Jones’s gaze darkened a bit, and I got the feeling he was angry, but it wasn’t very obvious.
Just then, a woman called out, "Dr. Jones," and Jones turned his head. A young woman wearing the same style of couple’s jacket walked over. The adoration in her eyes when she looked at Jones was practically overflowing.
Since I had stayed in the hospital for a few days, I recognized her. She was a nurse and had given me injections before.
"We’re all set for the barbecue. Let’s go". The woman’s voice was sweet.
"All right" Jones’s reply was rather cold, and he left without a second glance.
After watching them walk away. Joshua suddenly said. "Eliana, be careful with him."
I looked at him puzzled
He said in a serious tone, "Just a man’s intuition, but I think he might be after your friend"
"Hahaha." I couldn’t help but laugh. Joshua was just like my female friends. His misunderstanding of Jones was too deep.
"Why are you laughing? Joshua asked awkwardly.
"Joshua, if you said Jones was after Ariel, I might believe you, got it?" I patted Joshua on the arm, "Let’s go. Let’s see what else there is to do on the top of the mountain"
We looked around and found that aside from the view, there wasn’t much else to do.
Jones and his colleagues came prepared and set up a barbecue in the cold wind. I couldn’t believe he would participate in such an event.
And there were a bunch of pretty girls flocking around Jones, who seemed to be quite popular.
Too bad he didn’t seem to be paying them much attention.
"Joshua, let’s go down the mountain" I lost interest in staying and casually told Joshua.
Joshua nodded and followed me down the mountain.
By the time we got down, it was getting dark. Before leaving, I could tell Joshua had something he wanted to say to me. But I was feeling annoyed and didn’t want to add to my troubles, so I didn’t wait for him to speak and just drove off.
I saw through the rear–view mirror that Joshua was standing by the side of the road, not moving.
A pang of guilt hit me again. I thought I should stop giving Joshua false hope, I decided I was going to file for divorce with Damon.
After I had this idea, I went home and immediately blabbed to a few of my gal pals. They were super pumped after hearing it, and Clara even hooked me up with a lawyer who specializes in divorce cases.
So, under the guidance of this lawyer, I started to prepare the lawsuit
Two days later, I handed over the suit to the court. If all goes well, Damon will be notified in a week. Regardless of how he will respond, I’ve made up my mind I gotta get this divorce.
As for my parents and in–laws, I’ll deal with them when the time comes.
When Luna heard I had filed the suit, she was so thrilled that she came over to my place in the evening and asked, "Is it for real? Eliana, does this mean my brother has a shot now?!"
