The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 49 Monitoring Your Mommy for Me
Meanwhile, at Riverside Apartments.Charles had been monitoring the online activities closely.Once he confirmed that all information about Fannie had been deleted, he felt relieved and prepared to take a bath and sleep.Jade grinned playfully, "You're something, kid. Truly a hidden expert. You caused a direct drop of twenty points in Langley Group's stock price. Do you know what twenty points means?"Charles snorted and sneered, "He deserved it. Who told him to bully Mommy? I will not let him get away with it.""He definitely deserves a lesson! Unfortunately, the Thompson Group, his rival company, took great advantage of it! Mr. Thompson from the Thompson Group is even worse than Martin! It's hard to fathom.""The Langley Group?" Charles frowned and immediately checked the Thompson Group's stock price.Sure enough, after Langley Group's stock price plummeted, the Thompson Group's stock price skyrocketed.It was obvious to Charles that this increase was abnormal. Someone had clearly t
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 50 Daddy and Mommy are about to be taken away by someone else
When Patricia and Randy arrived at Basque Taste, Hunter had been waiting for a while.Today, Hunter wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose bridge. His plain white shirt and black pants made him look slightly younger than when they last met, giving off a hint of his youthful high school days.The person in front of her involuntarily overlapped with the one in her mind.Patricia seemed to have found her childhood happiness again and couldn't help but smile, "Hunter, didn't we agree on half past eleven? It's not that time yet!"Hunter teasingly said with a smile, "I'm not used to making girls wait." Then he shifted his gaze to Randy, "Is this your son?"Patricia quickly pulled Randy forward and introduced him, "This is my son, Randy. Randy, this is Mommy's former neighbor, Hunter. Quickly call him Uncle Hunter.""Randy, hello! I didn't know your Mommy would bring you here today.""So I didn't buy you a gift," Hunter took out a candy from his pocket. "Do you like candies? I'l
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 51 Martin Snatches His Wife
Patricia and Hunter were engrossed in their conversation when they suddenly heard a commotion outside the private room."Mr. Langley, I'm really sorry. It was our employee's mistake. Room 001 has already been booked. Would you mind waiting a moment? I'll talk to the guests inside and see if they're nearly done.""If it's already booked, we can switch to another private room.""All the rooms are full! The guests in Room 001 have been here for a while now, so they should be almost done. Let me go in and check!""Alright!"Before Patricia could respond, the door was opened without warning. The manager, with a bowed waist, walked in with apologetic expression, "I apologize for the mistake made by our front desk. This private room was booked by someone last night, and the front desk didn't know, so they double-booked it for you. Look, have you finished your meal? If you have, can you vacate the room? As an apology, this meal will be complimentary, and I'll also give you 500 dollars in cas
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 52 Being Tracked
Martin sneered, lips pulled back, "Does he, a grown man, need you to accompany him to buy clothes? Afraid of getting lost?""...?" Patricia really wanted to reply, "What's it to you?" But with Randy by her side, fearing his wild imagination, she forced the words down.Seeing her not answering, Martin's expression grew even more unpleasant.Alan and Luke were sitting on pins and needles, unable to bear it any longer. Alan mustered up the courage to speak, "Boss, we haven't resolved the matter of the new product launch yet. Should we go back and handle it first?"Martin ignored them completely, his hawk-like eyes darkly fixed on Patricia, as if he wanted to drill a hole right through her.With the boss remaining silent, Alan and Luke didn't dare to leave and could only obediently sit there.The atmosphere was oppressive, suffocating.Patricia seemed oblivious to Martin's gaze, her attention solely on Randy."Randy, you're not feeling well, so you can't eat spicy food, and you need to ta
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 53 My Daddy Got Married
Patricia intentionally guided Martin to the men's clothing evaluation section.While the clothes here were affordable, they boasted a wide array of styles, staying in step with current fashion trends.From the instant Martin entered the evaluation area, his brows knitted in disapproval, a look of displeasure etching across his face.Martin had a bitter feeling in his heart as he listened, "The budget section is fine! It's good to occasionally change your taste.""Is that so?" Patricia smirked slyly and pointed at a wine-colored wool coat on a mannequin behind the glass window. "If you want to change your taste, I think that coat looks good. You can try it on."Martin was used to wearing black custom suits all year round.He couldn't care less about clothes like this, especially in burgundy. He wouldn't even look at it. Knowing that she was intentionally provoking him, Martin wouldn't humor her. With a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, he readily agreed, "Why not give it a try?"
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 54 Patricia Must Die
Martin's good mood instantly vanished, his smile freezing on his face. Before he could clearly see who it was, someone rushed over and affectionately held his arm."Martin, what are you doing here?"Martin's displeasure was evident as he asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"Debbie's face displayed shyness. "My mom and I came shopping and saw you in the elevator, so we came over to take a look! This is the budget area, why would you be here?"Glancing at the shopping bags next to her, her expression immediately darkened."Martin, did you buy all of these? How can you wear such inexpensive clothes? Be careful of getting skin diseases!"Randy and Patricia exchanged glances and grimaced, speechless.Patricia couldn't help but strike back, "I've been wearing budget clothes for many years, but why haven't I gotten any skin diseases? Other people wear them just fine, it's only you who's so delicate and can't wear cheap clothes."Debbie's face turned pale, and she lowered her head in sha
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 55 This Time She Will Take Half of Patricia's Life
Patricia caught a glimpse of Manda's reaching hands from a billboard on the wall. Her gaze sharpened, and she swiftly moved aside, evading her clutches. Manda didn't expect her to dodge, and her body lost balance, falling forward. Her instinctive reflex was to find something to support herself, and just as she was about to touch Patricia's arm, Patricia smirked and deliberately moved her arm away. "Ah..." A scream echoed, and Manda tumbled down the stairs, writhing in pain on the ground, wailing incessantly. Patricia patted the area that had almost been touched by Manda, preparing to go down and check on her condition, when suddenly Debbie rushed out from behind. Followed by Martin and Randy. A hint of darkness passed through the ink-colored pupils of Martin's eyes, and it was unclear what he was thinking. Debbie rushed down the stairs, wanting to help Manda up, but as soon as she reached out, Manda screamed in pain. "It hurts, it hurts... Don't touch me, it feels like my bones are br
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 56 Not Only Will I Beat You, I'll Ruin Your Looks
After returning to the hospital, Randy tightly held Martin's hand, emotionally saying, "Daddy, do you really believe Mommy pushed her? They are clearly framing Mommy."Martin comfortingly stroked his head, "I know you're worried about Mommy! Don't worry, I won't let Mommy suffer from false accusations."Upon hearing this, Randy's eyes gleamed."Do you have a way to prove Mommy's innocence?""Yes!" Martin nodded. "You stay just stay herein the hospital room. I'll go check on your grandmother's condition first, and then I'll go to the detention center to see Mommy. If you have anything, call me or find Alan."Randy agreed said, "Okay! Hurry up, Daddy. Make sure to rescue Mommy quickly.""Alright."With a smile, Martin promised and instructed the nurse to take good care of Randy before leaving.Manda was rushed into the emergency room for treatment. Debbie worriedly paced back and forth outside, while Gavin also arrived upon hearing the news and coincidentally bumped into Martin in the h

Martin, lost in thought and gazing into the distance, didn't see Charlotte deliberately fall to the ground when her relatives reached out to her."Ah..."Her cry successfully snapped Martin back to reality.He immediately bent down to help her up. "Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?"Charlotte, tears welling up in her eyes, replied pitifully, "My wrist hurts so much, I think I've fallen on it again! I hope it's not dislocated?"Martin noticed the bandage on her wrist had come undone.The packet of medicine inside was nearly falling out. Anger started to well up inside him; this time, he was thoroughly enraged."Alan, take all of them to the police station, contact the lawyer, charge them with slander, intentional harm, extortion... I want them in jail."Feeling his boss's rage, Alan immediately carried out the order."Why are you suing us? We're the ones who have been wronged.""Just because you're wealthy doesn't put you above the law. Let me tell you, we won't back down without pr
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 179 Patricia Discovers Hunter's Secret
Hunter looked at her with tenderness, patiently waiting for her to finish speaking.Seeing his gentle expression, Patricia found it difficult to voice the words at the tip of her tongue. Nervously she reached for the lemon water on the table and took a gulp.She drank too hastily, and the sourness made her teeth quiver, causing her face to scrunch up.Hunter was amused by her adorable expression and considerately poured a little packet of sugar into her lemon water."I remember you used to hate sour tastes! What changed? Are you not afraid anymore? Going straight for it?" he asked with a smile.With her cheeks flushed with embarrassment and faced with his caring gesture, found her words of refusal even harder to pronounce.Hunter stirred the water in her cup with a straw for a while, making sure the sugar dissolved, then handed it back to her: "Here, try now. It shouldn't be sour anymore."Patricia nodded and took a sip through the straw. The taste was a bittersweet delight.Although
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 178 The Feeling Between Martin and Charlotte Was Strange
Only when the phone’s ringtone broke the silence, the deadlock was finally broken.Martin glanced at the caller ID with a gloomy expression, sighed, turned the phone upside down on his thigh in resignation. He turned to Patricia, unbuckled his seatbelt, and moved closer, taking hold of her shoulders. With a serious and helpless look on his face, he said, "Patricia, I'm sorry, I admit I was too overbearing just now. But I'm being overprotective because I care about you so much, and I don't want to see you getting too close with Hunter."Care? It was the first time Patricia had heard this word from him.The anger in her chest dissipated almost instantly, and her tone softened unconsciously. "Hunter and I grew up together. When Debbie and her daughter bullied me, he was the one who protected and encouraged me time after time. He is very important to me. If a condition for remarrying you is to cut ties with him, then I can give you the answer now."Even without her saying it, Martin gues
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 177 Not Like a Sister, But Like a Lover
Martin didn't give her a chance to escape, questioning every word, "So, is what Hunter said true? Are you really going to get engaged and marry him?"Patricia felt that the matters between her and Hunter couldn't be explained in just a few words, and moreover, everything was premature without having cleared things up with Hunter first.Seeing her still not responding, Martin grew impatient and urged, "Answer my question."Patricia pulled her hand back and said indifferently, "I won't marry him."That was her only answer. The rest, she wasn't ready to share with Martin yet.This answer caused a surge of joy in Martin's heart, his previously tense facial features gradually softened as he smiled like a child, unable to hide his delight."I knew you wouldn't like him." He said.Patricia rolled her eyes at him, "Now take me back to the restaurant."The smile on Martin's face vanished in an instant, and he refused without hesitation, "No, I won’t..."Before he could finish, his cell phone r
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 176 I Cannot Share a Man with Another Woman
Upon hearing his question, Patricia burst into laughter, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "So what if it is? What difference does it make if it isn't?"She did not deny it.Martin took her non-denial as an admission, and his handsome face darkened like the bottom of a pot, his eyes filled with brooding shadows."I don't agree.""Haha..." Patricia laughed even harder, her snort of derision loud and unmasked. "And might I ask, who are you to me? By what right do you interfere? What does it matter to you whom I'm with? At best, you're nothing more than my ex-husband. Remember, ex-hus-band."She enunciated the words “ex-husband” deliberately, making sure he grasped their significance.Martin's normally composed brows furrowed, wrapping him in an aura of cold sternness.He was clearly displeased with these words. Then silence hung in the air, heavy and enigmatic.He spoke with grave seriousness, "Let's remarry!"As he spoke, a chilly wind blew past them, its whistling sound drowning out Mar
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 175 A Man's Jealousy
Hunter expected Martin to back down and leave in a sorry state.However, to his surprise, Martin’s expression was filled with pain as he stared at their clasped hands for a moment and then strode over to them.Confusion filled Patricia as she instinctively turned her head and locked eyes with Martin, whose gaze burned with fierce anger. Her mind felt like it was exploding as if something detonated."How did you get here?" Patricia asked, barely able to form the words.No sooner had the words left her lips than Martin had reached out, forcibly separating Patricia and Hunter's clasped hands. In Patricia's stunned state, he grabbed her wrist and started to pull her away."Martin, what are you doing?" Patricia's heart began to flutter with slight panic.Martin's face had been a ghastly sight just now, as if he was on the verge of a killing spree. She had no clue where his rage was coming from.Hunter quickly stood up and seized Patricia's other wrist, forcing Martin to stop. Martin turned
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 174 Martin Intends to Confess to Patricia
The doctor conducted a thorough examination of Charlotte. Her wrist wasn't fractured but had suffered from a dislocation and soft tissue damage."Mr. Langley, please hold her tightly. I'm about to reset the bones in her wrist, which may cause some discomfort. Keep her steady, and do not let her move.""Bone reset!" Just hearing it, Charlotte's eyes widened with fear, and her body trembled. Despite this, she bravely closed her eyes, extended her hand, and prepared herself for the pain. "Go ahead! I'm not afraid of the pain!"The doctor looked surprised and said, "It's going to be very painful. Are you sure you're not afraid?"His words instantly drained the color from her face, but she vigorously nodded, clenching her teeth, and refusing to voice her fear."I'm not afraid! Back when I was boarding at school, someone pushed me down the stairs, and I broke my leg but didn’t cry. I can handle this pain!" she explained."You were pushed down the stairs?" Martin's discerning eyes narrowed,
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 173 Charlotte's Scheme
Patricia's heart skipped a beat. She knew she had been framed, again. And this woman's tactics were identical to Debbie's.Not only did she remind her of Debbie, but her methods and cunning were also the same. Indeed, Martin's taste had never changed. He always liked these hypocritical, nauseating women who could put on an act.The incident had happened too quickly; the onlookers only saw a scuffle but hadn't truly seen who had started it. They only saw someone fall and another with a hand outstretched as if pushing, so they naturally assumed Patricia was the aggressor."Professor Watson, what happened? Why did you push her?" one on looker asked."Yes, Professor Watson, is there some conflict between you two? If so, have a proper conversation about it. Getting physical in public won't do your reputation any favors." Another said."Yes! Professor Watson, perhaps you and her should talk in your office? It's not convenient in this corridor."After the incident with Debbie, everyone's vie
The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife Chapter 172 Charlotte is Debbie
Martin had thought he would be calm when he saw Patricia again, as if nothing had ever happened.But in this moment, with Patricia standing right in front of him, his heart raced with intense emotions that he had suppressed for so long. It was in that moment that he realized the depth of his love for her, far greater than he had ever imagined.He couldn't bear to see her with Hunter, nor could he draw a clear line between them. "You..."Martin's lips parted as he tried to speak to her, to bridge the distance between them.Unfortunately, Patricia had made up her mind to keep her distance, and with her head bowed, she took a step back, yielding the path ahead.Martin clenched his fists tightly, struggling to contain the anger and turmoil within him. Unaware of the tension between Martin and Patricia, Charlotte flashed a sweet smile at Martin and said, “Martin, let’s go! I can’t wait to see Randy!”Patricia smirked derisively, her lips curling up."Well, isn’t that affectionate?"Marti
