My Ex, Please Love Me Again

Anya felt it ironic. What the hell was wrong with Tristin?

He knew how much she hated Gracie’s family and how much Gracie hated seeing her living a good life.

Nevertheless, he was in contact with Gracie and even kept offering her number to Gracie during those years so that Gracie could keep harassing her.

Although Anya had no clear evidence to prove that Tristin contacted Gracie, his expression vaguely betrayed him. When she asked that question in a playful tone, she saw that Tristin’s expression became weird.

He, for sure, vehemently denied involvement with Gracie, “How could it be that Gracie told me? I’m not in contact with her. Besides, I know very well how vicious she is.”

Anya looked at Tristin in silence as he talked bare-faced nonsense, and her heart sank fast.

It would be a false narrative that she was not disappointed. When she first formed a band with Tristin, she sincerely admired this handsome and talented boy, and in subsequent years, she also treated Tristin as a friend.

Although she was not as close to Tristin because of Phil, she still felt that he was trustworthy. Otherwise, she would not ask Tristin to help her redraft the divorce papers to get a clean divorce from Phil when she asked for a divorce.

On the other hand, it was not that she couldn’t accept Tristin’s contact with Gracie, but at the very least, he shouldn’t claim to like her anymore or pester her.

What can she say about this kind of behavior? Anya felt that the most appropriate word to describe it was “duplicity”.

As he saw that Anya kept silent, Ezra thought Anya was exasperated. At such a time, he certainly should step forward bravely and protect Anya on behalf of Phil.

So Ezra, who stood by and watched just now, said, “Your eyes betray your heart. You’re still putting on an act!”

Even Anya could perceive something wrong, so how could a cunning man in the business world like Ezra not spot it?

Besides, Ezra heard from Phil about Tristin’s dirty tricks behind. For example, Tristin deliberately told Anya about Lorie’s car accident and managed to make Anya divorce Phil desperately.

Therefore, Ezra believed Tristin could do things like contact Gracie secretly.

Tristin looked at Ezra and sneered, “Well, Mr. Cantillo. I didn’t expect that a busy man like you would work for Phil as a bodyguard with your family.”

Honestly, Tristin’s words were not pleasant to hear. After all, Ezra was a prestigious figure. Tristin insulted Ezra by saying that he was a bodyguard for Phil.

Ezra broke into laughter, “Are you sowing dissension?”

Ezra was not affected by Tristin’s words at all. Instead, he said flatly, “Not to mention being a bodyguard for him, as long as he needs it, I would gladly work for him like a packhorse.”

How could the words of a villain like Tristin break the brotherhood between the four?

What had they not experienced from the beginning to now? They had even experienced the precipice of doom, so how could they be affected by others’ provocations?

Besides, all four of them were not no-brainers; they could easily see through such little tricks.

Ezra said candidly that Tristin was sowing discord, which made Tristin look displeased for a while. He was still pretending to be affectionate towards Anya, worried that Ezra’s words would tarnish his image in Anya’s mind.

He didn’t know that Anya was such an intelligent and keen girl that she had perceived something fishy with him without Ezra’s reminder. Otherwise, how could she have asked if Gracie revealed her pregnancy to him?

Ezra, who was always sharp-tongued, found that Tristin was still pretending to be innocent, so he gave an even worse comment on Tristin right away, “Do you know how bitchy you are now?”

Tristin was so pissed off that he lost his tongue, “You–”

“Tristin!” Anya interrupted the verbal battle between the two.

She looked at Tristin with a serious expression, “I decided to give birth to the child myself. It’s not about who the father is. I think it’s fine to have a baby while I’m still in school. When I graduate, the baby will be older and easier to take care of, so I can focus on my career in the workplace.”

“Besides, I’m not going to have any romantic relationship from now on. The baby is all I can count on.”

“That’s my explanation. It’s the first and last time, and I hope you won’t mention my child again.”

“Moreover, I had always seen you as a friend, but now I think we are not even friends anymore.”

“I believe you know why.”

After Anya said these words, she pulled Maisie towards her flat, without glancing at Tristin anymore, nor did she want to talk.

The reason why she explained to Tristin so clearly was that she hoped to stop Tristin from badgering her anymore. If he did so again, she would not behave in this way.

She said good words first; later, she would only say harsh words to Tristin.

Ezra snorted, holding his son and turning away as well.

Tristin couldn’t restrain his anger and shouted behind Anya, “Have you forgotten your mother’s car accident? You had a child for him. Isn’t that equivalent to helping a villain do evil?”

Before Anya could say something, Ezra couldn’t tolerate Tristin anymore.

He passed the son in his arms to Maisie first, then turned around and strode towards Tristin. He looked atrocious, and his manner was intolerably aggressive.

Anya was a little concerned that Ezra would come to blows with Tristin, so she hurriedly turned to Maisie for help.

Maisie hugged her son and said calmly, “It’s fine, so be it. He won’t suffer losses anyway.”

Maisie trusted Ezra’s skill, but she added, “I also feel that Tristin deserves a beating, so it’s good to beat him up to make him learn a lesson.”

Anya was at a loss for what to say.

She couldn’t expect Maisie who seemed indifferent to other people would have the intention of beating Tristin.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

However, it was not that Tristin had never been punched before.

The first time he was beaten by someone Phil had hired, his face was disfigured, and for the second time, he was personally punched by Phil. And yet he didn’t learn his lesson.

She didn’t know why Tristin was so stubborn. In her impression, he was not this kind of person, did she not know him well enough? Or had he changed since then?

At that moment, Ezra did not hit Tristin after he approached him; instead, he sneered, “If you hadn’t mentioned Anya’s mother’s car accident, I wouldn’t have wanted to expose you, but now you have only yourself to blame.”

“You keep using Anya’s mother’s car accident to put mental pressure on Anya, but have you told her that this matter was actually released to Anya by one of your men?”

“You deliberately exposed this matter when Anya decided if she should study abroad to make her break up with Phil. Once she was determined to go abroad, you would have more chances to approach her!”

“Right?” Ezra threw up his hands, “Unfortunately, you’ve miscalculated. Anya did go abroad to study, but she avoided you, and now she’s pregnant to give birth. You can’t sit still, can you?”
