My Ex-Husband Is Crazy About Me
Chapter 3 ~ Meeting Back After Many Years

"Give me a hand sanitizer!" Ruby gives Lily her hand so Lily can give her a hand sanitizer. Touching a stranger plus the look of the little girl with someone she once knew, Ruby was disgusted.

Lily immediately gave her a hand sanitizing spray just like Ruby had asked for. Still good Ruby just asked for a hand sanitizer, not asking to clean the little girl. If that really happened, how unfortunate his fate would be.

Knowing what Lily was thinking, Ruby smirked. "You're afraid I'm gonna get rid of him?"

Lily jerks. The question might have been normal for Ruby, but for her, it made her heart almost jump from her body. "Murder is illegal, Madam." It means Ruby can't kill people or make a mess.

Ruby chuckles. "Then why are you worried? I'm a good, law-abiding citizen." He said with confidence.

Lily frowned. Good and law-abiding? Since when did Ruby become a good and law-abiding person? If anyone heard, they would laugh at him.

They went up to the second floor then stepped into the third door suite. After Ruby enters, Lily closes the door again.

The light and delicate aroma of wine reached Ruby's nose. The beautiful woman looked up and what entered her line of sight was the silhouette of a man.

The man was wearing a black suit. On his seat, he took a quiet sip of wine as he spoke to his assistant sitting next to him. Her familiar face made Ruby dumbfounded.

That figure..

How long has it been?

It's been a while, no, a long time, a long time. Eight years. But why did the figure he thought was already drowning at the bottom of the ground appear here? In front of him? Wh why? Is the world playing on him?

Ruby clutched tightly onto her bag. His originally relaxed body slowly stiffened and his teeth were grinding involuntarily.

In his memory, that figure was the source of his pain.

If anyone asks, what is more painful, was being left behind by a loved one or being killed indirectly by someone who was loved so much?

Since Ruby already felt both emotions, she could easily answer the second one.

Although losing someone you love wholeheartedly is painful, it is nothing compared to being killed by a loved one. Even the pain is more than you can feel.

So, why, why did he appear again in front of her? Isn't that enough? Did it still not hurt him enough to almost take his life?

Ignoring the wide range of emotions in her heart, Ruby emphasized once again that her being here was not for nostalgia. There is nothing beautiful about the past. He came here to discuss a two billion dollar business partnership with SVN CEO.

Yeah, correct. Business is business. Personal feelings, they have nothing to do. But if this was really a business, could it be that the person was the important person he had to meet? SVN CEO?

Ruby glanced at Lily.

Lily nodded small. Implies that this is the right place and there is nothing wrong about this.

For a moment, they shared the confusion.

Ruby quickly returned to her senses. Her beautiful face was stunned for a moment as a feeling of hatred flashed in her clear eyes.

The reality was not only Ruby was stunned. Vidrian, as the person who would discuss about cooperation with the Diedrich Group, was no less astonished.

Vidrian looked at Ruby and something also flashed briefly in his unexpected eyes. Something very big hit him and he was a little dazed for a while before saying clearly to the person beside him, “Do your best and don't waste any more time on it." His low voice was a little hoarse, distant yet very charming, and very soothing to the ears.

With that one sentence, Vidrian ended the chat with his assistant and stared fixedly at the woman sitting in front of him. Something strange really bothered him. His heart raced fast, his eyes turned red and involuntarily his hands trembled. Unable to stop the tremor, he covered it with his other hand.

Never been this weak. Not except in front of one person. But the man had already left, left him. It was impossible that a figure that had always stayed in his mind suddenly appeared in front of him.

Vidrian lowered his head.

This must be a dream.

A beautiful dream that will end as soon as he wakes up.

He chuckles.

Is correct.

Since when did that girl become so different?

He has been entertaining himself in the same way for eight years. Although it was a bit sad, it seemed that he was used to it.

He raised his head. But what met his line of sight was still something similar. The familiar figure he had always hoped for, the figure that was always inherent in memory. So, is this not a dream?

The woman in front of him had a beautiful face. Wearing formal attire, the woman had a refined and elegant appearance. Her long, beautiful hair was tied high up in the back, while a few thin strands fell on her forehead in an unruly manner. The woman had beautiful eyes and looked very charming.

That woman is a real beauty. It was so beautiful that she was afraid that it was all an illusion. A beautiful illusion that will eventually lead him to disappointment, again and again.

Vidrian was pensive and during this period the turmoil in his heart was indescribable. Many questions overlapped in his head, yet in the end there was nothing he could do but suppress the complicated emotions in his heart.

Vidrian locked his eyes on Ruby. "Rubika, long time no see." Just one word, yet it contains many meanings. Longing, happiness, hope, all mixed into one.

Another thing Vidrian thought, another thing Ruby felt.

If anyone is able to read Ruby's mind, then she can see how deeply rooted hatred is within her. His red face said everything. But it was difficult for others to detect because his face did not show any emotions. His face was as calm as night and his gaze was as clear as morning dew.

At first glance people will see that Ruby is fine. Yet truly no one knew how turbulent his heart was and a sense of killing tempered within him.

If he could, he wanted to kill the man in front of him with his own hands and make the man his pet food in America. That way, perhaps the hatred in his heart was slightly lessened.

But it's not all that easy. The man in front of him was the CEO of SVN company. The man promises a great advantage from the business collaboration they offer in the fashion world. As an ambitious woman and a treasure madman, she would not miss such a good opportunity. No matter what, no matter who, this business will still run.
