A Vengeful Ex-Wife

Chapter 476 Mrs. Xi

Maria was about to lose her temper when she realized how adorable her children looked at the moment.

The mere sight of their crying faces softened her heard. "Don't cry anymore. I'll take you home first, okay?"

"Okay. Thanks, Mommy," said Bob.

Her words put a smile on Coy's face. "Thanks, Mom! I want to sleep with Daddy, Mommy, and Bob tonight."

Maria fell silent yet again.

Unbeknownst to her, James was smiling and giving his sons a thumbs-up sign.

The kids sat back, giggling among themselves.

Hearing the noise, Maria turned around.

Immediately, the two brothers stopped what they were doing, and behaved themselves.

Maria was confused. Just now, she heard them giggling like imps.

James noticed that she was growing suspicious, but he would never rat out his sons.

Soon, the car arrived at the manor. It had been over two years since Maria came here. The only reason she returned was because of her children.

In the past, she had thought that she would never come back to this place, but her promise to herself was now broken.

The maids were all surprised to see Maria, especially when they saw what she was wearing. If Bob and Coty hadn't called her their mom, they would've thought she was a nun that James had invited into their home.

James was walking in front, while Maria was walking with the two kids, each holding onto her hands.

The maids greeted them at the door. "Welcome back."

Two uniformed maids came to take Bob and Coy. They couldn't resist the urge to look at Maria a few more times.

While they were looking at her, Maria was also staring at them from head to toe.

She wanted to know which maid had the balls to maltreat her son. Although she was now a pacifist, it didn't mean that she would allow her sons to be pushed around.

All the maids present were quite young. Most of them were in their twenties, and the oldest one seemed to be thirty years old. And on top of that, they were all attractive.

It appeared as though James was enjoying a harem of beautiful maids!

The jealousy that had been residing at the bottom of her heart was now gradually being reawakened.

Upon noticing the way Maria was looking at them, the maids greeted her. "Good afternoon, ma'am."

She nodded at them and said. "Good afternoon. Thank you for looking after Bob and Coy." "You're welcome. It's our pleasure, and our duty." Now that they were in the villa, Bob and Coy began to play with their toys. Maria felt uneasy. She hadn't been here for a long time, so she felt like she didn't fit in.

James put his arm around her shoulders. She wanted to avoid it, but it was too late.

When their eyes met, he said, "I've asked them to prepare some clothes for you. I'll go upstairs with you so you can change into something more comfortable."

For a moment, Maria hesitated. She looked at her sons as they were playing, and finally decided to refuse. "No. I have to go back later."

"I've already asked my people to bring back your things from the nunnery. Go upstairs and see for yourself. Let me know if they left anything behind."

Maria had a bad feeling about this. "Why did you ask someone to bring my stuff here?"

"Maria, you have a family. You have a husband and two sons. Staying in the nunnery does not suit you."

Glaring at him, Maria replied, "I'm a nun already. You don't get to decide whether staying in the nunnery suits you or not."

James smirked. "You are not."

"What?"

James grabbed her hands and said, "You are not a nun. Two and a half years ago, Norman told the abbess of JT Nunnery in advance to never let you become a nun." He believed that this was the only thing that Norman had done right for so long.

"That's not possible!" Maria shook his hands away.

She had been staying in JT Nunnery for nearly that same amount of time. And now he was telling her that she had never been a nun all this time? 'Are you kidding me?'

"Don't be agitated. You should ask Norman about this, since he's the one who talked to the abbess. That is why you were permitted to stay in JT Nunnery and do whatever you wanted. Shaving off your hair doesn't mean you are a nun." He looked at her head underneath the hat.

Maria was at a loss for words.

'Is he saying that I've been a fake nun all this time?'

She cast him a cold glare and shouted, "You're lying! James, what on earth do you want from me?"

With his hands in his pockets, James replied calmly, "I want you to come back and marry me again. I want you to become Mrs. Xi once more."

She couldn't believe what she was hearing. This time, she turned around and went for the door. There was no way she would believe anything that came out of his mouth.

Without stopping her, James said, "I'll ask the driver to send you there, but I must remind you that it's useless for you to go back. JT Nunnery will no longer accept you. Don't forget that you broke the rule of celibacy that night. The abbess will no longer accept you."

Once more, Maria was having a hard time regulating her breathing.

She then turned around and rushed to punch him as hard as she could. "You men are all bastards!"

Before she could remove her fist, James grasped it tightly. "Yes, yes, we're all bastards. Will you come back now, honey?" "Honey? I'm not your honey!" Maria pulled back her wrist and went for the door again.

James followed her out to stop her. "I have your abbess's contact number. Call her if you must, but don't waste your time by going back there for nothing."

But Maria didn't stop walking. She would never believe him, and she wanted to go back no matter what.

She walked to the car, and gave it a hard kick. Then, she looked at James as he stood at the entrance of the villa. "Ask someone to send me back this instant!" she ordered.

Upon hearing that, he opened the car door for her. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Let's go!"

Maria got in the car.

Unexpectedly, James sat in the driver's seat and started the car. It seemed that he was going to drive her back to JT Nunnery himself.

By the time they reached the mountaintop, it was getting dark and the nunnery was already closed.

Maria had been knocking at the door for a long time before someone finally opened it. Once the nun saw her, she said, "Oh, it's you, Maria? The abbess said that you don't have to come back here. You're no longer a nun. You can return to your normal life!"

Maria's heart sank. It turned out that James was telling the truth. However, she still wasn't willing to accept it. "I want to see the abbess."

All she had done was attend a wedding. Just before she went out, everything was fine. Why was she no longer allowed to come back?

The nun who opened the door was caught in a dilemma. "Would you like me to ask the abbess for you instead?"

"I'm okay with that."

But before the nun could ask the abbess, a familiar figure caught Maria's sight. She folded her palms together and bowed.

The abbess approached her and said, "A long time ago, I've already realized that you don't belong here. Although you've shaved your hair, you're still not a nun."

Maria was so devastated to hear those words from the abbess herself. Her eyes widened in shock.

"Don't be so surprised, Maria. Haven't you once asked me why a nun wasn't the one to shave your hair? That's the reason," said the abbess.
