President’s Secret Obsession With Ex-wife

Chapter 87: Forcing Her to Call “Honey”



She had disliked Alexia’s nature for a long time, but her aunt and uncle had always put up with it to develop the temper she had now.

Jonathan got a little anxious when he saw that Victoria wasn’t willing to plead at all.

“Even if Alexia is intentional, this matter also does not have room for discussion. You also know that it is our family who have wronged Alexia. If she makes a fuss to divorce, then your cousin will not be able to marry a wife in the future. He rolled away the customer’s money, and borrowed some usury thing. It has long been rumored in the Hopmeadow Downs. In the future, which girl still dares to marry into our family? Only Alexia doesn’t mind him, if something happens to Alexia, what can your aunt and I do?”

Victoria closed her eyes a little feebly, knowing that her aunt and uncle had a hard life and the money they had earned had been squandered by her son and Alexia.

She raised her hand and rubbed her brow, “Uncle, have you ever thought that even if I plead with Mr. Andrews, he won’t look at me to settle the case privately. He’s adamant about this matter, either she comes up with eight million dollars to pay for the damages to the car, or she goes to jail.”

“Tori, would you at least ask this boss first if…. What if he’s willing to let us lose less money for your sake….?”

Victoria just felt a nameless fire rise and her tone went cold, “Uncle, I’ve asked him, it’s from his own mouth. I have to drive, so I’ll hang up.”

After saying that, without waiting for a reply from there, she directly hung up the phone.

It was also the first time she’d been in such an impasse with Jonathan.

Her aunt and uncle used to treat her well when she was at her uncle’s house, it was their cowardly character that made Alexia ride over their head now.

Nick was sitting right next to her and heard her the whole time.

He waited for her call to end before inquiring, “Is that woman a relative of yours?”

For some reason Victoria felt a pang of humiliation, “Hmm, my cousin-in-law.”

Nick’s gaze grew decidedly meaningful, “She said your cousin ran away?”

“Yes, because of previous loan sharks.”

“So she didn’t divorce your cousin?”

The implication was that if she was not divorced but was chasing after a man like this, didn’t her relatives care at all?

Victoria only felt more humiliated that her uncle was expecting her cousin to return and have a grandchild with Alexia.

As he said, no one wanted to marry her cousin right now but Alexia, and that’s why they’re indulging Alexia.

“Mr. Andrews, I’m sorry about the matter concerning my cousin’s wife.”

It was even a little hard to say.

Nick withdrew his gaze, his vision fading, “You want to pay that eight million for her?”

“I don’t have so much money.”

“Then mind your own business.”

Victoria really didn’t have that kind of money, and now when she got back, she had to hurry up and sell her condo and make up the down payment on the new one she bought.

And the money from the sale of the condo still had to go through the bank, and there was still half a month to go before she got it. A half month in which she would either have to stay at the Shannon Villa or at a hotel.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

It would be really awkward to meet up with Nick at Shannon Villa one day.

Both stopped talking when Victoria got a message on her phone from Jonathan.

?Tori, I’m sorry for giving you a hard time. We’ll take care of this ourselves. Go back to work without worrying.】

Victoria didn’t feel happy to see this message, but rather more annoyed.

Because she felt in her uncle the same suffocation, the aggravation she had suffered at her father’s.

She leaned back in her chair, feeling nothing but exhaustion.

Nick had papers on his lap and didn’t look at them for long before he felt a head resting on his shoulder.

He stiffened and couldn’t help but twist his head to look at her.

She was probably in a bad mood these days, and she looked a bit pathetic, even the tip of her nose hid her aggravation.

It seemed that the last few days at Hopmeadow Downs, she did suffer a lot, so much so that in her dreams, she looked like this.

Victoria had a dream and unexpectedly dreamed of Nick.

Nick pinched her chin and forced her to call him honey.

She could feel her exhaustion even in her dreams, and without much struggle, she called out, “Honey”

Nick was looking down at the papers when he heard the mumble and almost didn’t control the force and tore them up.

His brow furrowed and he couldn’t help but twist his head to look at her.

She was sound asleep, and what she had just done was probably dream talk.

Wasn’t she on bad terms with her husband? Why did she still dream about that man in her dreams?

He really couldn’t figure her out.

Nick withdrew his eyes, his mind as calm as water, and it was none of his business anyway.

It was evening when Victoria opened her eyes, and she couldn’t help but feel her heart beating wildly at the sight of the familiarity of this route back.

Wasn’t this the way to Shannon Villa?

Was Nick planning to go to Shannon Villa tonight?
