The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 39

The phone started to ring.

When Roxanne saw it was Bruce on the phone, she immediately picked it up. She squelched her throat and said, “Hello!”

“Hello, Roxy!”

“Yes, Bruce?”

Bruce paused for a few seconds and asked in a deep voice, “Are you free tonight?”

Roxanne’s heart was racing with delight when she heard that. Bruce hadn’t asked her out for a long time. “Yes, I’m free!”

“Let’s have dinner tonight!”

“Great! About what time?”

“I’ll pick you up at eight o’clock! We’re going to Blueiva Dinner. Remember to dress up.”

“Sure. I’ll see you tonight!”

“See you tonight!”

The phone hung up, and Roxanne jumped for joy.

Ingrid happened to be back. Seeing her daughter so happy, she sneered and asked, “Why are you so happy?”

“Mom, Bruce just called me and asked me to dinner at the Blueiva Diner tonight! Mom, come and help me pick the right dress!”

“Well, it’s all thanks to me. I can only help you so far. The rest is up to you!” Ingrid hummed.

Roxanne was a little shocked. “Mom, did you visit Bruce?”

“So what if I did?”

“Mom, you’re so annoying! I told you not to go after Bruce! Don’t snoop your nose into our business!”

“How could I leave you guys alone? You definitely can’t handle it by yourself. Look at you! You guys almost broke up. If I hadn’t made my move, a random girl would’ve wooed Bruce away.”

Roxanne’s excitement immediately disappeared when she heard this.

“It looks like Bruce didn’t ask me out because he misses me…” she thought to herself.
