Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 216

Chapter 215 Yuri smiled, unafraid to frighten Madelyn. “This bracelet is the heirloom of Mrs. Capaldi’s family. It has been handed down for generations. I previously purchased a similar one for 1.2 million dollars at an auction. But it fe short of Mrs. Capaldi’s in quality.” Suddenly, Madelyn’s wrist dropped to her lap. At that moment, she felt the table was over 1,000 pounds heavy. “Well…” She attempted to remove the bracelet. Despite being easy to put on, the bracelet was a little difficult to take off. “Where did you shop for this jewelry set?” Madelyn asked Yuri nervously. She silently hoped that the price would not be too high for her. “Do you know what shopping means for me? Even if they attend an auction in another country, they would say they’re shopping. The opening bid for this jewelry set, tailored for the A–list actress in Atharia, was 450 thousand. dollars. My father bought it for 1.95 million dollars to please my mother,” Yuri casually said while driving steadily. However, Madelyn felt like she was riding a roller coaster. “Umm… Is it too late if I return it now?” Madelyn’s voice trembled. “It’s too late.” Yuri gave her a cunning smile. Madelyn gave Yuri a terrified and uneasy expression. Her eyes were beginning to turn red. “Please don’t extort me. I cannot afford it.” “I’m extorting you, of course. It doesn’t matter if you can’t afford it. If you become my girlfriend, not just pretending, all these would be yours.” Yuri lifted an eyebrow as he took a glance at Madelyn. Madelyn’s heart was pounding. “Why do I feel like everything is happening according to his plan? If being hist girlfriend can get me so many valuables. God…” she pondered. Madelyn had always been greedy. Her eyes almost turned heart– shaped when she heard his words. “Umm… Do I need to return them if we break up?” “No need.” Yuri was amused by Madelyn’s reaction. Madelyn’s heart ontinued to race. “Well… Why don’t we give it a shot? Even if it’s not for your sake, I will do it for the money…” Madelyn remarked as she warily peered out the car window. 1/5 HILJL UU LUI LUBI UCHLIE f we break up. If I hold on to them, I might end my life if I accidentally lose or break them.” Yuri proposed because he was well aware that Madelyn was a money–grubber. But he also knew that Madelyn. had her condition. Yuri was aware that even if Sylvester returned and offered her millions of dollars to make up, she would never consent. “Pathetic!” Yuri made fun of Madelyn. Madelyn sulked. She felt as if she had fallen into a trap. On the set, Rebecca and Skylar had a scene where the two were entangled in the reeds, and the two were very

immersed in the performance. Alex was very excited. “Rebecca was really born to be an actress.” “Crack!” Suddenly, everyone heard a crack. Sebastian, who was at the back fetching water for Alex, looked gloomy. He broke the ceramic cup’s handle with his hands. Alex was confused. He wondered why the boy looked so gloomy. Sebastian merely stood there dully without saying anything. “Rebecca was really born to be an actress. But it’s clear that this isn’t any acting. She’s truly immersed in it!” Sebastian mused. He could not understand why just having a scene with Skylar could put her in such a daze. Sebastian gritted his teeth and took a deep breath. “Umm, Sebastian. Please bring Rebecca a bath towel. Thanks.” Alex suspected that there was something wrong with the boy. Although he was a newcomer, he was the heir of the Phoenix Corporation. Even Alex wouldn’t dare to offend him. Rebecca was soaked because they were kissing in the wetlands of the pond of reeds. Rebecca was velighted, as they completed the scene in one take. Alex’s satisfaction meant that she hadn’t held back Skylar. Chapter 215 “Skylar, you are really good,” Rebecca flattered him happily. As long as Skylar was in the scene, he would complete it in one take. It satisfied Alex very much. “You are also an excellent actress. I appreciate you a lot.” Skylar smiled and went up to the shore to pull Rebecca out of the water. Rebecca was a little cold. Skylar felt he should cover her with his clothes that were not far away. After all, he should act gentlemanly. A tall young man quickly walked over the next second. He covered Rebecca’s head with a whole bath towel and rubbed it hard. Sebastian smiled and cast a sidelong glance at Skylar. “There are so many things I can learn from you, sir.” Skylar was a little confused. He had been acting for years. So it was impossible that he didn’t notice the young man’s fake smile. Skylar could see that the young man was gritting his teeth, and his eyes were filled with threat. But he could still smile and say such pleasant words. Skylar wondered what grudges Sebastian had against him. Sebastian dragged Rebecca away and asked in a low voice, “Rebecca, are you happy to shoot a scene with your idol?” Rebecca got out of the bath towel. “Don’t ruin my makeup…” Rebecca wanted to blame Sebastian, but she didn’t dare to say anything when she saw his eyes were boiling with anger. “Drink it.” Sebastian was not insensitive. He got Rebecca some hot water so she wouldn’t catch a cold. Rebecca held the hot water cup and felt a little flustered. She was not sure how Sebastian felt about her. She thought he might be playing around with her. “It’s quite exciting if that’s the case,” RebeccaUpstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

mused. 3/5 Chapter 215 Although she also loved playing around, she desired a stable relationship. Her exes were not good people, so she had never had a reliable boyfriend. She always seemed to attract unwanted admirers, making it difficult for her to find the right one. “I’ve prepared some ginger tea for you. After you’ve finished the hot water, have this.” Sebastian was thoughtful and even got Rebecca some fruit. Rebecca always had a strange feeling. She felt that Sebastian was a bit scary when he was sensible. Rebecca could finally relax since he was no longer angry. “Did he get angry just now? Or was he jealous? Was he angry when he saw me acting in the kissing scene with the best actor? I don’t understand it…” Rebecca wondered. At Hofcaster Hospital, when Ashley woke up, the doctors and nurses were there. “Ghost… There’s a ghost!” Ashley’s emotion was a little out of control. “No, someone is playing tricks on me. That’s right! Someone wants to hurt me.” Ashley cried and asked the doctor to change her ward, “They need to be taught a lesson! I will call the police!” “Ms. Long, your ward is directly across from the nurse’s station, and our nurses were there last night. When Mr.. Gibson left, he specifically requested that the nurses look after you. It had been completely silent all night.” The doctor was shocked as well. Ashley became increasingly terrified and didn’t dare to say anything. “What if these doctors found something out…” she thought. “Well… Maybe this is all a nightmare.” Ashley could only pretend that she was having a nightmare. The doctor nodded. “Maybe you have been in a coma for too long, so you are prone to hallucinations. I’ll change the medicine for you tonight so you can sleep well.” Ashley nodded. “Thank you, Doctor…” “Doctor, what time is it now?” Ashley was a little scared. “It’s eight c’clo:‘n the morning.” 4/5 Chapter 215 Ashley panicked. Henry didn’t come over. She didn’t want to eat the dinner brought by the caregiver. 45 “By the way, Mr. Gibson called the caregiver to buy you your favorite breakfast. He said he was busy and couldn’t come to visit you this morning. But he will be here this afternoon,” the nurse said. Ashley was a little disappointed, but she had no choice. Henry was busy at the company. It was impossible for him to follow her around all day like Thomas.
