President’s Secret Obsession With Ex-wife

Chapter 3: Blame it on your bad background.



A smile adorned the man’s face. He wore a suit, and he looked decent, but the look in his eyes made Victoria uncomfortable in some way.

Her expression turned cold as she handed him Linda’s medicine.

“I’ve already seen her, take the medicine to your mom.”

Gavin raised an eyebrow. “Why don’t you come and join us too? It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other.”Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

“No, I have things to do.” Victoria simply handed over the medicine and turned to head out of the hall.

Gavin gazed intently at her graceful, distant back and could not help but bring the medicine bag near his nose and taking a sniff.

The presence of a brilliant-looking young woman in the gynecology department, with ointment, this had to be the thought of more than just once.

Gavin dropped his eyes, and felt a slight tightening in his abdomen.

It was difficult for him to believe that the girl who appeared so calm and relaxed in public was having such a high time in private. It was also true that her husband had been away for three years, and it’s inevitable that a woman who is alone in the house will cheat on her husband.

‘There’s no rush. She’ll have to go back to the Blackwell someday. There’s plenty of opportunity.’ Gavin thought with a smirk plastered on his face.

The moment Victoria got into the car, her heart was still a little stuffy.

Seeing each other every day at home was always inconvenient when this family of three moved into the house, along with Gavin, who was not related to her by blood.

Daniel insisted on her staying in the house before but she put forward the idea that Gavin should move out of the house, however Daniel did not allow this to happen and convinced her to disregard the suggestion.

Daniel always felt that he owed a lot to Cynthia and Linda, and he also had a great deal of affection for Gavin.

Victoria didn’t want him to be caught in the middle of a difficult situation and moved out herself.

Now it appeared that she was the only one alone, instead they were like a family.

She was thinking of checking in at the studio and then driving home, when her cell phone rang. Seeing the name flashing on her phone, her already bad mood worsened a few notches.

After a few rings, Victoria took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.

“Hello, Mrs. Andrews.” Victoria said.

It was Elizabeth Andrews, Nick’s mother, who called.

As soon as Victoria obtained her marriage license, she realized that her mother-in-law had extremely high expectations and was looking forward to marrying her son with a girl from a famous family, so she was extremely dissatisfied with her. She had come to understand that the family members generally kept their distance from her and only engaged with her occasionally when absolutely necessary, especially in the presence of Edward.

“I’d like you to come over and discuss the divorce in person.” Elizabeth said it in an unapologetic tone.

In fact, she was even concerned about Victoria’s refusal, so she made a preemptive strike, “Victoria, you should also know that back then, we did it because we couldn’t argue with Nick’s grandfather, and now that Nick has taken over Andrews’ business, Edward probably won’t force him to continue this marriage with you.”

This refers to the fact that the marriage had to be ended.

Elizabeth even thought that Victoria would cry quite a bit as after all, what woman would let go of her son after meeting him? It would be more than enough for a girl to speak to him a few more times even if she were unable to get his love for the rest of her life.

But Victoria responded faintly on the other end of the line, “Yes, is it time to come over?”

She didn’t even ask a single question which surprised Elizabeth. It was as if she had been waiting for this day.

Elizabeth was uncomfortable. Nick had dumped Victoria, as he should have, but Victoria had reacted so coldly, as if her son wasn’t attractive enough.

For the sake of regaining her face, she grunted coldly, “It’s good that you agree. In your position you don’t deserve Nick. He deserves better. Come over here now. I called Nick as well. He’ll be here later.”

Victoria paused for a moment as her mind crossed the thought, ‘Nick will be there too? I wonder how he would react if he knew that the woman he slept with last night was his soon-to-be-divorced wife.’

A proud man like that would probably feel deeply uncomfortable and disturbed by a situation like this.

Victoria laughed softly and turned the car around to go to Andrews’ villa.

Elizabeth didn’t look too good when she saw her, however, given that Victoria had not asked for compensation, the situation was not too difficult.

“I hope you don’t blame me for speaking without mercy. Considering the current situation of your family, you should be very clear about your position. I am not afraid to tell you that you need to convince your father that if he does not have the ability to conduct business, he should stop earlier. We can help him once, but can’t help him a second time. Also that stepmother of yours is still eyeing you. You are already in a very bad situation and marrying you doesn’t really help our family in any way. You already have to take care of your family, and we can only blame you for not giving birth until now.”

Victoria sat on the couch and nodded her head in agreement when she heard this. “Yes, I really don’t deserve Mr. Andrews.”

Despite the marriage license, they were not much different from strangers. All this time she only carried the reputation of Mrs. Andrews.

How could divorce not be a relief for her?

“…” Elizabeth was once again left speechless by her response.

She had the overwhelming feeling of encountering something inexplicable, and for a moment, she couldn’t discern whether the woman in front of her was acting or genuinely indifferent.

The sound of car brakes came from outside the house.

The maid waiting outside saw Nick’s car stop and hurriedly came inside to inform Elizabeth, “Madam, Young Master is back!”

Elizabeth stood up triumphantly and took a few quick steps to the door.

Victoria also gazed in the direction of the doorway, obviously mentally preparing herself to face Nick. However, her originally calm heart suddenly became uncontrollably nervous.
