My Ex, Please Love Me Again

David smirked, “Why? You ask for it, right? My brother-in-law?”

David again annoyed Ezra on purpose.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Ezra looked back resentfully, “Shut the fuck up.”

Although Ezra had been longing for the call by David-my brother-in-law-to prove his status, he got goose bumps when he really heard of it; he did not get used to it at all.

Given that they were hating each other at present, it was best that they did not mention the status in law. It would even be better to hear David call him by his name rather than “my brother-in-law”.

Maisie saw Ezra was disgusted at David’s call, and she pulled Ezra gently and protested in a low voice, “Aren’t you looking forward to his acknowledgement? Why don’t you like it when he does as you wish?”

Maisie knew that Ezra and David “hated” each other, not in an essentially hostile or completely isolated way. They had their own tempers, which were childish in Maisie’s eyes.

For example, David was alert to Ezra’s things and always reminded her that Ezra had dinner outside or something else. Maisie knew what David meant-he warned her against other women.

Maisie laughed it off smile each time. If Ezra did not love her and their family, it was of no use to be alert all the time.

As for Ezra, he sneered each time he thought of David, “I’ve been your legal husband for so long, and I don’t hear him call me brother-in-law once. He doesn’t show any respect for me.”

However, he was disgusted at David’s call now. Maisie, of course, had to protest about it.

Ezra did not expect Maisie’s protest, and he had no excuse for it in front of Maisie-to be exact, he did not dare to make an excuse.

He could do nothing but coax Maisie, “It’s all my fault. It’s good to hear David call me like this. I really do.”

David smirked when he saw Ezra could not resist his sister’s protest. That was how they “hated” each other: One would be happy if the other was frustrated.

Ezra admitted his mistake with a good attitude, but Maisie was drunk and had no energy to niggle about anything. The dinner ended with the departures of Ezra helping Maisie into the car and David helping Shania.

The next morning, after Shania had sobered up and took a long and enough rest, David and her went to the old home.

Before they went out, David held Shania’s hands and asked her in an undertone, “Are you sure we are going there now?”

Shania gave him a dazzling smile. “If we tell them all the things early, we can come back and live in peace forever. Undue delays may lead to more troubles.”

“Okay.” David had no objections.

Shania stroked his face gently and said lovingly, “David, we’ve missed for years. In the future, every day of my life, I want to live with you undisturbed. I don’t want to waste a second, nor waste my energy on those who are not worth it.

“Go back and settle down all these matters, and then we will start our peaceful and happy life.”

Shania was not easy to be messed with. She was about to let Mr. and Mrs. Brennan give up the thoughts of harassing and torturing David. She wished they could stay in the little town and never appear to trouble them.

David, as their son, and she, as their daughter-in-law, would only take the responsibility for their illness and death; as for other things, they should not bother the young couple any more.

“I know.” David held Shania’s hands tightly.

In fact, David did not ask Shania what she would do after they went back. He believed in her, and would support her unconditionally.

He totally agreed with Shania. They had been missed each other for years because of David, and they only wanted to enjoy their lives in the future. They could not be troubled by those vexed family affairs. Never!

After the flight landed, they rented a car and David drove it to the Brennans’ home.

The Brennans used to live in a remote village. But Mr. and Mrs. Brennan did not live there now. They grabbed lots of money from Maisie over the years and spent that money on a three-floor house in a town and decorated it in a luxurious way.

Plus, Mrs. Brennan got a large sum of money from Ezra, and so, the furniture and the home appliances were all changed into the most expensive and high-quality ones. The house had now become a popular place where many people came to visit every day.

When David and Shania stepped into the house, Mrs. Brennan was playing cards with a group of people in a bright and clean living room. Nearby were several women of her age. Everyone was chatting loudly as they played.

What David heard was Mrs. Brennan complaining about Maisie. She told others that Maisie was an ungrateful daughter without doing her filial duties-Maisie married a rich man and then abandoned her parents.

David was trembling with anger.

If Maisie had not done her duties, they would not have had the large house today. They had looked for excuses for money from Maisie, since Maisie started to work.

Poor Maisie had been grateful to Mr. and Mrs. Brennan at that time. Wholeheartedly. She only saved a small amount of money for her daily expenses and gave the rest of the money to her family.

Afterwards, David and Maisie worked hard and became Julian’s right-hand man and woman. Along with their promotion, their salaries had also been doubled. However, Maisie still gave most of her money to her parents, and that was why they could purchase the three-floor house now.

And it was David and Maisie’s mother who was tempted to break off the relationship with Maisie after she got Ezra’s money. But she now defamed Maisie and told others that Maisie was so ungrateful that she abandoned her parents.

Shania pulled at Davis’s sleeve and signaled to him to be calm. “We don’t need to get angry over these people who swear black is white, because getting angry won’t change what they are doing now.”

David’s mouth tightened, and he pressed his tip of tongue against his molar tooth to suppress his anger.

Shania was glad that Maisie had a younger brother David who had positive values and a clear mind in line with Maisie. Otherwise, Maisie would be in a more miserable situation where she was against by her parents and an always-asking-for-money brother, if David was a kind of brother who was incompetent or not taking his sister’s side.

However, if David was that sort of person, Shania would not fall in love with him as well.

David calmed down with Shania’s reassurance and opened the door with her hand clutched in his.

The chattering stopped at their sudden appearance. Everyone stared at David in astonishment-to be exact, they stared at the fair, delicate girl beside him.

They all knew about David, but no one had seen the young girl before. The girl had such a terrific temperament and seemed to grow up in a wealthy family and live a good life.

“You… you are-” Mrs. Brennan threw her cards violently after the initial dismay and stood up from her chair at once. She looked at David and Shania and asked in surprise.

“This is my wife, Shania. I come here to visit you with her,” said David, calmly. Mrs. Brennan nearly suffocated in great horror.

Well. Actually, she was pissed off. Marriage was a big event in one’s life. How could David do it without his parents’ permission?
