There He Is Again, My Ex-Husband (Julian and Amelia)

Chapter 1019 What's Wrong with It?

Phil had smoked several cigarettes in the car in front of the hospital building when he got the call from

Ezra. He had to chill out in this way.

"Are you in the hospital?" said Ezra.

"Hmm." said Phil, lightly. But he had smoked a lot and he hardly spoke because of the hoarse throat.

Ezra was a smoker himself. He heard his voice and got it immediately.

Ezra couldn't help to roast him on the phone, "Keep smoking like that, and you'll kill yourself before you

win Anya back."

Ezra wondered how many cigarettes he had smoked to get such a hoarse throat.

Phil cleared his throat a bit and said impatiently, "Spit it out."

He would have said dirty words to him if he didn't care about their friendship.

Ezra humped discontentedly but still asked with concern, "How did Lorie treat you after she woke up?"

Phil laughed with self-mockery, "Thanks to you guys, she is happy with me. And she didn't blame me,

either."

"Holly shit! It's good news!" Ezra felt happy for Phil from the bottom of his heart, "With her on your side,

it will be much easier for you to be back with Anya."

Phil laughed out lightly but not positively.

"Damn it. Do you really hate her? Or you don't want to be with her again?" cried Ezra, surprisingly.

"Fuck off." Phil cursed harshly.

Of course he wanted to be with Anya.

But he was worried that Anya couldn't accept his love again. He wasn't sure that she would talk with

him even if Lorie was on his side.

He knew Anya inside out. She was very rebellious and she might hate him more once she knew Lorie

was on his side.

"Fine. You're the boss." said Ezra. He gave up and didn't feel like discussing with him again.

Then he changed the topic, "Shall we go on a business trip tomorrow? We'll take a look at the project in

Esnait."

Ezra told Maisie that he didn't want to be on the business trips, but he did listen to her in the end. He

invited Phil to go with him in case he saw Anya.

Unexpectedly, Phil was so smart that he asked him back, "Is Anya coming back?"

Ezra was out for words.

Damn it. He didn't imagine Phil could be so shrewd and smart like that.

"Maisie told you to do this?" Phil asked again and it gave Ezra another blow.

Since he had guessed everything, Ezra just spit it out, "Yes, she's coming back. But she doesn't want

to see you and tries to avoid you. Are you happy now?"

Ezra thought Phil would be frustrated by his words and refused to go on the business trip with him. But

Phil just said neatly, "OK. We'll go."

"Really?" said Ezra. He was confused and doubting it.

"It's up to you." said Phil.

"I'll tell my assistant to book the airline tickets then." Ezra came back to reality and said immediately.

"OK." said Phil. Then he hung up the phone and drove away.

Well, no one could guess what he was thinking in mind, not even his good friends.

Anya and the girls tried so hard to avoid him. He also believed that they must have kept something

from him.

Ezra booked the airline tickets and told Maisie anxiously, "He's agreed to go on the business trip with

me, but I just don't believe it. I feel something is wrong."

Maisie didn't expect that Phil would agree so easily, especially after he found out the their intention of

sending him away. They found it hard to believe he still insisted going after he knew it. Something must

be going on.

But they simply didn't know what exactly Phil was thinking.

So, she comforted Ezra, "Just go since he's agreed. Now we'll have to take a step at a time."

"Fine." said Ezra.

He had a plan. When they arrived in Esnait, he would drink with Phil and make him drunk. Then Phil

wouldn't be able to play any tricks as he wished.

Anya would land in Riverside City at 8pm the other day. Maisie left home for the airport to pick Anya up

at about 7pm.

Ezra had texted her earlier, telling her he had made Phil as drunk as a lord. Maisie read it and felt much

relieved.

Anya was in a hurry to come back to visit Lorie this time. She didn't bring anything else with her but a

small suitcase. She packed hastily and left for the airport. She wished she had wings so that she could

fly back and see her mother soon.

But she knew it was a wish only. In fact, she had to bear with the ten-hour flight with anxiety and worry.

She switched on her phone to check if Maisie had arrived. But she just received a message from

Maisie, saying, "My car broke down on the way. Hold on a moment. I'll be right there."

Anya texted back and walked out of the airport lounge with the suitcase. She was gonna wait for her at

the parking lot outside, so that Maisie could see her as soon as she arrived.

But a black car stopped by slowly ahead of her when she stood still there. The car model and number

had surprised her a lot. It was Phil's car.

She couldn't be more familiar with it. The licence plate number was her birthday. Phil wanted to give a

her car as a gift and made her birthday the registration number on purpose.

She thought he was out of his mind and annoying, then she rejected it.

The car was worth several million dollars. He must have been out of his mind to buy her such an

expensive car. She was still a college student and what people would talk about her? There were

rumors about her relationship with Phil in the campus and they knew she had married a rich man. But

she didn't want to show off their wealth in this way. After all, she didn't earn the money herself.

Seeing the car stopped in front of her, Anya carried her suitcase immediately and ran away.

But the driver had got out of the car. He strode forward and stopped her, "Ms. Anya, please don't make

it difficult for me."

Right at the moment, the window on the back seat was rolled down. Anya saw his gloomy and defined

face.

He stared at her gloomily, "Why are you running away?"

Anya was trying to say something but he said meaningfully again, "What's wrong with it? Can't you just

get in my car because we've been divorced? Or must you avoid me for some unspeakable secrets?

You have to keep me away?"

She must admit that Phil had said straight to the point and made her feel terribly guilty.

Exactly, she did have some unspeakable secret and she must keep him away.

To stop him from being suspicious, Anya faced up to him and said, "Maisie has promised to come pick

me up."Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
