Always There: Win My Ex-wife Back

"Uh-Oh! Isn't this Michelle? Why are you hiding here?" Jolie snickered.
Realizing that Michelle hadn't returned to the dining table, she guessed that the woman was perhaps crying in the bathroom.
After all, no one would have the heart to watch their ex and cousin together.
Michelle glared at Jolie and wiped her tears angrily.She wanted to ignore her words and leave the disgusting place right away.
Although the Greenwoods seemed fancy on the outside, they had nasty secrets that no one knew.
Michelle tried walking past Jolie, but the woman stood near the door and thrust her inside.
"Michelle, don't think that you are above me just because your surname is Greenwood.No one loves you.Has Grandpa ever
been kind to you? Have you seen any of our uncles or aunts showing their concern for you?"
"That's enough, Jolie! Stop it!"
Michelle clutched her chest as her breathing began to falter.She wanted to leave the place and never return.
These people only wanted to hurt and torment her.
"No.That's not enough!"
Jolie snatched her arm and stared into her eyes.
"Michelle Greenwood? It's funny that you got the surname of a prestigious family despite being an illegitimate daughter.People
will laugh at you when they find out the truth."
The blood on Michelle's face drained in an instant.
She leaned against the wall for support and clenched her fists.
"Shut up! That's enough.I am a member of the Greenwoods, even if you call me an illegitimate child or an orphan.But you, Jolie,
will always be an outsider, for your surname is Coles.You don't have any right to discuss the matters of this family."
A loud slap resonated across the silent bathroom.
Michelle's vision grew blurry; her cheek began to throb with pain.

Jolie's hatred and jealousy for Michelle intensified.
She hated when people called her an outsider.She despised her mother for marrying her father.
Jolie had to pay the price for her mother's mistakes all her life.
She was now stuck in the Greenwoods enduring all the pain and humiliation.
None of this would have happened if her mother had chosen a better partner.
Even the servants of the Greenwoods disrespected her because her father was just a civil servant and not a director or
something.
Michelle rubbed her stinging cheek and tried hard to control her anger.
She knew that everyone in the Greenwoods unanimously despised her.
Even though everything was Jolie's fault, no one would support her.She wanted to break all ties with the Greenwoods and never
contact them again.
After what seemed like forever, the bathroom door flew open, and Paula walked in.She smiled sweetly and took Michelle's hand.
"Michelle, do you realize that you are a burden to our family? What's wrong with your face?" she asked before turning to glare at
Jolie.
Paula knew that Jolie was an impulsive person who only ruined all her plans.
Dustin was still waiting outside.
He adored Michelle and wanted to marry her.
The woman's swollen cheek revealed that Jolie had abused her.
What would they tell Dustin if he questioned them?
