Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

She had intended to cclean with him after Listina's surgery, but the right moment just never seemed to cup.

Now he must have run into her dad. Did Abner go straight to Felix? Panic set in.

"Carol, so you're really a high society girl, huh?"

Carol's first instinct was to hang up the phone. After she did, regret washed over her, and she quickly called him again.

But Felix didn't pick up. He just watched the phone vibrate on the table, a cigarette dangling between his fingers as he stared off

into space.

Carol knew she was in trouble and immediately called Abner. This time, Abner picked up promptly.

"Dad, what on earth did you say to Felix?!"

Hearing her accusatory tone, Abner couldn't help but laugh with irritation.

"If someone hadn't snapped a photo of you two, how long were you planning on keeping this from me? Have you been avoiding

coming hthese past few months because of this guy?"

Carol felt a twinge of guilt. She had been deceiving both ends and knew the day of reckoning would come, but it had arrived

sooner than expected.

"Dad, I really like him. We've been together for nearly six months, and he's been taking such good care of me."

"Weren't you well taken care of at the Miller family villa by those maids?"

Carol felt a sting at the comparison, as if Felix were just a caretaker.

"Dad, I know my past relationships haven't been the most reliable, but this tit's different. I really care for him, and if you got to

know him, you'd like him too."

"Carol, I don't have the tnor the desire to get to know him. I'm giving you three days to break it off and cback home."
