Chapter 9 Ex-wife is not a wife
Claudia was dressed provocatively, with a seductive sway in her walk that exuded a sultry aura.
It had to be said, this woman did have some looks!
Lachlan used to have some assets himself, but over the years Claudia had spent his money on maintaining herself and she looked even younger than before.
There was no trace of having given birth on her body!
Lachlan watched as his ex-wife walked towards him with someone else’s arms around her, feeling a sharp pain in his heart.
“I’m not here to borrow money from you! I’ve already raised enough for Nora’s treatment!” Lachlan said coldly.
“If it isn’t for borrowing money, then why are you following me? Do you still have feelings for me? I advise you not to delude yourself!” Claudia raised an eyebrow and looked down at Lachlan disdainfully.
“You poor bastard. How dare you still think about Claudia? Take a look at yourself first. Claudia won’t come back to you again. Give up already. Haha…” Tom spoke, his arms wrapped around Claudia’s waist, and he planted a firm kiss on her face.
“Mmm… Tom, stop provoking him. What if he can’t handle it and ends up doing something drastic?” Claudia twisted her body slightly, using a sweet and complaining tone towards Tom.
Seeing this scene, Lachlan turned his face away, feeling a wave of nausea.
He realized he had been blind back then, foolishly thinking that Claudia would be with him for the long haul.
“Lachlan, why don’t you just leave? Don’t stand here dirtying up someone else’s doorstep! It costs tens of thousands just to eat here. Thanks to me following Tom. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even dream of eating here if I followed a loser like you for the rest of my life!
I’m telling you, don’t ever show your face in front of me again. You’re so shameless for following me around. It only makes me more disgusted!” Claudia humiliated Lachlan with disdain written all over her face.
“Me shamelessly following you? Claudia, you think too highly of yourself.” Lachlan shook his head speechlessly.
“What? Is that not true? You’re a poor bastard who isn’t even worthy enough to lick my shoes right now.” Claudia arrogantly raised her chin.
Just then, a bright red Ferrari pulled up and screeched to a halt next to Claudia and Tom. The car was less than twenty centimeters away from them.
“Ah!” Claudia screamed in fear as she thought the Ferrari was going to hit their.
“You f*cking…” Tom was also taken aback, subconsciously moving behind Claudia for cover.
Just as he was about to burst out with foul language, his voice caught in his throat.
Because in the next second, he saw an enchantingly beautiful figure stepping out of the Ferrari.
Those sexy long legs, those deadly curves of the waist and hips, that cool and noble temperament made Tom hold back his curse words.
Beautiful! So beautiful!
Claudia looked at this beautiful woman and also felt a little inferior.
Seeing Tom staring at the woman, drool was about to come out, feeling annoyed in her heart, Claudia pinched Tom hard and Tom finally came back to his senses.
In the next second, to the disbelief of Claudia and Tom, this stunning goddess actually walked towards Lachlan.
“Lachlan, how long have you been waiting? Don’t be angry with me for not showing up.”
After Miranda came over, she immediately hugged Lachlan’s arm and sweetly asked.
Lachlan was stunned for a moment; he didn’t expect Miranda to behave like this. He looked at her with a strange expression.
He only saw Miranda give him a disdainful look and a glance.
Lachlan understood in his heart and smiled, shaking his head and saying, “It won’t be long. Whenever you’re ready to have a meal together, I’m willing to wait however long it takes!”
“Uh-huh.” Miranda smiled and had a sweet and satisfied expression.
Watching this scene, Claudia, who had just mocked Lachlan and told him not to have any delusions about her, was dumbfounded.
That heavily made-up face changed constantly.
Tom cleared his throat and his eyes were full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
“Lachlan, who is she?” Claudia pointed at Miranda and asked sharply, her tone thick with jealousy.
Some people were just like that. She could heartlessly kick Lachlan to the curb, but when she found another woman, Claudia couldn’t accept it for a moment.
If Lachlan had found an ugly duckling, Claudia wouldn’t care and would even turn around and mock him fiercely. But unfortunately, Lachlan had found a woman who completely overshadowed her in every way possible.
This poor guy! Who did he think he was?
“Lachlan, who is she again?” Miranda also turned her head and asked with envy in her beautiful eyes.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Her behavior was like that of a woman deeply in love, anxious about the relationship between her husband and another woman.
“Oh, she’s my ex-wife, Claudia. Don’t worry. I have no connection with her anymore,” explained Lachlan calmly.
“Ex-wife? An ex isn’t a wife anymore; it doesn’t matter,” said Miranda sweetly while pouting coquettishly. “Lachlan, let’s go inside to eat. I’m hungry.”
“Okay!” smiled Lachlan as he hugged Miranda’s arm and walked into the Cottage restaurant together.
Outside, Claudia’s face was beyond ugly. Seeing Tom still staring at Miranda’s back, she was even more infuriated, her face twitching with anger.
“Tom! Have you seen enough?”
Tom finally came to his senses and awkwardly smiled as he withdrew his gaze.
“She looks good, doesn’t she?” Claudia gritted her teeth.
“Haha, she’s not as good-looking as you’re. In my eyes, you’re the most beautiful.” Tom coaxed without blinking an eye.
“Hmph! That’s about right!” Claudia snorted and pouted.
Although she was very angry in her heart, she didn’t dare to be too reckless in front of Tom. She could only vent a little bit of frustration and let it go. After all, he was the rich second generation that she had worked so hard to hook up with.
“Didn’t you say your ex-husband was a poor loser? How come…” Tom hesitated before asking.
“Hmph! I’m afraid he deliberately found a woman and rented a sports car just to make me jealous,” Claudia said firmly. “He even asked me for money yesterday. Who would want him?”
Claudia couldn’t believe that after divorcing herself from Lachlan, he could find someone better than her.
“Haha, you’re absolutely right. People like him are really despicable, playing these tricks just for some vanity! Daring to upset my Claudia, wait until I sort him out!” Tom sneered contemptuously.
“Yes, give him a good beating for me, let him realize he’s nothing but trash and worthless!” Claudia said fiercely.
Meanwhile, after entering the Cottage, Lachlan voluntarily let go of Miranda.
“Thank you,” he said.
“No need. I slapped your face yesterday and helped you slap someone else today. Consider it my way of apologizing to you,” Miranda replied coolly.
Hearing this, Lachlan couldn’t help but feel speechless. “Apologizing to me through slapping people’s faces? It seems like, back and forth, it’s always you hitting others.”
Miranda snorted lightly at his words, her beautiful eyes carrying a hint of dominance. “What’s wrong? Do you still want to hit me?”
