Hunting for His EX-Wife

“Shh, don’t speak,” Rose immediately turned to the little girl standing beside her, her eyes filled with seriousness.

Leah blinked cutely and nodded cautiously. She understood that at this moment, she must listen to her mommy’s words.

After taking deep breaths, Rose stood up and opened the door.

“Sir, may I help you with something?”

Elliot stared deeply into the woman in front of him without any signs of losing control as he did in the hall earlier.

He thought about his decision just now and a flash of different colors appeared in his eyes. A cold voice came out from his lips. “I lost control during our last encounter at the hotel.”

Although he was drugged that time, if it weren’t for this woman’s resemblance to Rose, he wouldn’t have acted so impulsively…This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

The man pursed his lips while his long eyelashes trembled slightly. Deep down inside him wanted to confirm whether or not this woman was really Rose.

Upon hearing these words, Rose clenched her hand tightly by her side into a fist.

He is worse than an animal! What use is there for an apology now? Although she had cursed Elliot in her heart long ago but because he was now her “boss”, she had no choice but to endure it on the surface.

“It’s okay; it has passed.”

Elliot lifted his gaze and stared intently at the woman before him, trying to catch any flaws or weaknesses from her expression.

“Before… I treated you like that because I mistook you for my wife.”

Upon hearing these words, Rose became even more dissatisfied with Elliot.

Does he still remember having a wife? When he had one before, why did he do such despicable things with other women? Now suddenly remembering this fact? Disgusting! She kept sneering at Elliot’s scumbag behavior inwardly while maintaining composure on the surface.

“If Mr. Harper says so, then I understand.”

Elliot pursed his lips tightly together into a line.

Serena’s behavior seemed normal. It made sense. If she were really Rose, then she would not easily reveal any flaws or weaknesses.

Leah who stood next them saw how her daddy kept looking at her mommy, so she turned around, intentionally saying, “Serena, please change into your ‘work clothes’ quickly; I’m hungry and want dinner.”

Rose blushed unconsciously when hearing Leah say those words.

This little brat actually asked me to wear maid clothes in front of Elliot? Didn’t she know how strange the clothes looked.

The next second, Elliot standing in front of Rose suddenly spoke up, “Since you’re here to work, change into your uniform and start working. Take care of this child and you will be well-paid.”

Rose heard his words and understood that she had no room for rebuttal.

Helpless, she could only change into her maid’s uniform and start working.

…

When the sun quietly set, Leah pulled her mommy’s hand into her room.

“What’s wrong?” Rose looked at her daughter who seemed a little sneaky and asked curiously.

The little one waved her hand to signal for her mommy to lower her head.

The latter lowered her head so that the little one could whisper in her ear.

“Mommy, Elliot usually isn’t home at this time. You can go check out his room.”

“From my observations these past few days, he keeps all his important things in there so the surveillance footage we’re looking for should be there too.”

Leah finished speaking with a sly glint in her eyes.

In reality, she didn’t know if the footage was really in her scumbag dad’s bedroom or not. She just said it to get her mommy to go check it out herself.

She wanted her mommy to see with her own eyes that scumbag dad still kept the clay figures she made by hand; maybe he wasn’t as bad as they thought he was.

Rose nodded gently and reached out to pat Leah’s head.

“I’ll take care of this matter; don’t worry about it.”

Leah obediently nodded before saying softly, “Mommy, I’ll wait for your good news.”

“Hmm,” The woman responded firmly before turning around and leaving the room silently.

She snuck towards Elliot’s bedroom but just as she closed the door behind herself, she heard sounds of him showering coming from inside!

Elliot was taking a shower? Her hands clenched involuntarily, causing sweat beads on them. But since she had come here, she naturally did not want to leave empty-handed. Anyway, since Elliot was currently taking a shower now, she should be able to search through his room quickly enough.

But Rose never expected that even after searching every corner of Elliot’s bedroom, she couldn’t find what she was looking for.

Rose was full of disappointment. She never imagined that her daughter had tricked her into coming over just to see those two little clay figures. What Leah didn’t know was that after she left the master bedroom last time, Elliot had moved the two clay figures to a different location.

If Leah knew, she would definitely curse her father for being stupid and missing such a good opportunity!

After searching fruitlessly, Rose slowly came to the conclusion that the surveillance footage wasn’t even in the bedroom.

She sighed helplessly and turned around to leave the room when suddenly she heard the sound of water from the bathroom stop. Her heart skipped a beat and she turned around, intending to escape from the master bedroom.

But it was too late. The next second, a man wrapped in a towel walked out of the bathroom. His hair was wet and his eyes were hazy due to just having taken a shower.

As he walked, a crystal-clear waterdrop fell from his chest, leaving an imprint on his well-defined abs before flowing down, making people’s imagination run wild…
