There He Is Again, My Ex-Husband (Julian and Amelia)

Ezra went out of the bathroom and went downstairs. On the second floor, he saw Daisy was packing up the luggage with his son and Maisie was not there.

Ezra stepped forward and held his son in his arms. He then asked Daisy, "Why are you packing up suddenly?"

Daisy knew that Ezra did not want to be parted from Maisie.

Daisy's hesitation made Ezra worried immediately. He asked at once, "Where's Maisie?"

Daisy had to tell him the truth. "She left early in the morning and told me to move back today with Ezio."

After she finished, Daisy's eyes flickered away guiltily, because she knew it would be a huge blow to Ezra. As expected, Ezra became upset as soon as she finished her words.

If he was not holding his son, he would be furious like crazy.

For a while, Ezra sneered, "She did very well!"

Then, he passed his son to Daisy and went upstairs. He would probably call Maisie.

Daisy let out a sigh with Ezio in her arms. She did not know what happened between her masters. They were about to part as soon as Nancy had just left abroad. Daisy thought they had been getting along pretty well these days.

Upstairs, Ezra was walking about the large bedroom for a while, trying to calm down - he did not want to quarrel with Maisie.

However, the more Ezra tried to be calm, the angrier he became. He thought they would make a progress after last night's sex, but now she was moving away.

Ezra felt it was so offensive! Most importantly, she ran away after the shag, which made him like a sex toy! When thinking of it, Ezra took his phone and called Maisie. Then, he was more fuming because Maisie switched off her phone. He could give vent to his great anger nowhere now.

Ezra felt his forehead throbbing with anger. Maisie... For the first time in his life, he was so angry with a woman that he could not speak a word.

When Ezra got downstairs again, Daisy had prepared breakfast. She looked at Ezra with concern and said, "Mr. Cantillo, please have breakfast first."

Ezra said, "OK." Then he sat beside the dining table and told Daisy, "I'll let the driver send you and Ezio there later."

Daisy replied, "Thank you."

She thought Ezra would have thrown a fit. But now Ezra looked calm. Daisy was a bit worried about whether Ezra was really angry at Maisie.

So, she asked, "Mr. Cantillo, You're not really mad at the boy's mother, are you? Though I don't know the reason, I don't think Maisie would make unnecessary quarrels. If there's a misunderstanding, I wish you guys could talk it through."

After getting along with Nancy and Ezra for several days, Daisy was happy for Maisie. For one thing, it was not easy for Maisie to meet such a nice mother-in-law like Nancy.

Daisy had been there, so she knew how difficult it was to deal with a mother-in-law. A lasting relationship between couples sometimes depended on a nice mother-in-law.

For another, Ezra cared about Maisie. Therefore, Daisy sincerely hoped Maisie and Ezra could release the knot in their hearts and live a happy life.

Ezra pressed the tip of the tongue against a molar and said to Daisy, "She does not make unreasonable quarrels. But she slept with me and did not want to be responsible for what she did." Ezra said it through gritted teeth, which fully indicated how it annoyed him. Daisy was speechless in embarrassment and astonishment. She was embarrassed at the sudden sexual topic and startled by Maisie's reaction. Normally, runaway after sex was so typical of a thing that a man would do. Why would Maisie do that too?

But soon, it came to Daisy that Maisie may not prepare for the sexual relationship with Ezra.

Daisy shouldn't be the judge in this case. She then lowered her head to eat.

"I've packed my stuff. Please tell the driver to bring it there too." Ezra finished his breakfast and told Daisy, "Mum's the words."

Maisie ran away, and Ezra would keep chasing after her.

Maisie was back to the Hughes and would not go abroad nor leave Riverside. Thus, since she was in Riverside, Ezra was not afraid of her fleeing. He would follow wherever she went.

This time, he would not quarrel with her, nor get angry with her, and instead, he just played the game in her way.

Daisy chuckled, "Okay. Lips sealed."

Daisy thought it was a little bit childish but was also the best way to deal with the problem. At least, it was better than either a quarrel or silent violence. Thus, the driver took Daisy and Ezio away with their luggage after breakfast. Of course, Ezra's luggage was in the car. However, Maisie's things were left in Ezra's house because she had no time to pack them up.

Ezra went to work with great frustration. He sent messages to his friends in the chat group.

Phil first sent peals of laughter, making no attempt to conceal his derision.

Julian replied briefly yet mockingly, "That's karma."

Not long after, Arthur sent his moderate response, "Feel sorry for you. Totally understand. Jean ran away many times after having sex with me. Welcome to my world, man."

In fact, Arthur's words were not helpful, or let's say, worse. Women ran away every time after they had sex? How could he get used to it?

"I don't understand. Don't you think you guys kind of look more like friends with benefits than couples?" Phil probably enjoyed his life recently, and so, he had been so cocky. Ezra was quite cross with them, and mentioned to Julian, "Can you kick him out?"

Phil sent out a message, "OK, I'll be quiet."

Arthur again said to Ezra, "It's true, just get used to it."

He got a gang of cronies who could never give him timely comfort when he needed it.
