Love Ex-husband Again? Never!

For several days after that, Elliott would go home on time after finishing his work at the company.

After coming back, he put down his phone, put on an apron, and went into the kitchen.

After working for two hours, several dishes were finally served. They didn't look very good, but the presentation was very attentive.

Elliott approached me cautiously.

"Victoria, I was not nice to you before. I will make it up to you in the future."

He spoke in an awkward tone, with guilt, and came over to hold my hand.

"Actually, nothing had happened between Emily and me. I just wanted to piss you off and make you apologize, so I deliberately let you misunderstand.

"I'm sorry, Victoria."

His tone was so sincere that I almost thought he was telling the truth.

He thought this would move me.

But I couldn't help but think of the day after our wedding anniversary when he made a special trip home to apologize to me.

His expression that day was just as sincere and affectionate as it was now.

But he didn't notice that there was still a lipstick mark on the side of his cheek.

That trace of lipstick was like a thorn, piercing my heart.

At that moment, I understood everything.

But now, he actually said that there was nothing between him and Emily. He lied.

I shook my head, put down the divorce agreement, and placed it in the most obvious place on the table. "Whether it is true or not, we know it very well.

"You should sign it when you have time. I don't want to embarrass us, Elliott."

I turned around and went back to my room with my laptop and locked the door.

Elliott hovered at the door for a long time. His footsteps stopped. He seemed to be hesitating whether to knock on the door.

In the end, he didn't knock.

I turned off the lights in the room and was almost falling asleep when Elliott's voice rang out from outside.

"Victoria, I know you're sick. I shouldn't have deliberately angered you. I was so wrong!

"No matter what, I promise you that there is nothing between Emily and me anymore. I will fire her and get a new secretary tomorrow. And I will never have anything to do with her again!

"Why don't you open the door and we'll talk?"
