Chapter 1044: Chapter 1046: Xiang Yun’s Grand Wedding (3)

’Cui Hua,’ this name was what he used to call her when he loved her, a name he hadn’t used for more than ten years, Lady Mo had completely forgotten it. Now, suddenly hearing him call her that not only failed to touch her in the slightest, but instead, it reminded her of all his past beastly behaviors, unleashing the resentment that had been building up in her heart.

"Boss Ma, whether I am here or not has nothing to do with you. We have accepted your donation. If there’s nothing else, please feel free to leave; I won’t keep you company any longer!" Lady Mo said angrily, then turned and walked away.

Boss Ma had donated so much rice and flour just to appease Lady Mo and win her back. Seeing that she wouldn’t even talk to him before leaving, he became so anxious that he couldn’t care less about propriety and ran up to grab her.

"Cui Hua, don’t go. Listen to me, this time I am..."

"Let go!" Lady Mo furiously shook off his hand and said angrily, "Men and women should not touch each other. Boss Ma, don’t think that just because you donated a little something, you can act recklessly in our Home for the Elderly. If you continue to be rude, I will call someone to throw you out!"

Boss Ma looked at Lady Mo’s cold gaze and listened to her harsh words, suddenly feeling a pang of panic.

His ex-wife was different from before; she was no longer the sickly, submissive woman who always obeyed him.

Once, he thought that as soon as he turned back, by merely beckoning her, Lady Mo would rush back to his side. Thus, even when the person he sent to deliver things to them was driven away, he assumed it was Ma Liancheng, that unfilial son, causing trouble. He believed that once he met Lady Mo alone and expressed his sincerity, she would surely forgive him. After all, a woman marries only once in this lifetime, how could she bear to leave him?

But now, his original confidence had completely collapsed. Lady Mo’s unfamiliar, resistant, and cold eyes and her merciless words pricked him like countless fine needles, causing both heartache and panic.

"Cui Hua, I..."

He awkwardly let go of her hand and began to explain, but as soon as he loosened his grip, Lady Mo walked away without looking back, leaving behind only the cold words, "See the guest out!"

Dejected, Boss Ma was sent out, feeling extremely miserable.

In his subconscious, Lady Mo was still his woman, even though he had divorced her. They had lived together for most of their lives, and if he were willing to turn back, she should happily and gratefully return with him. However, the reality was obviously not as he had imagined. Lady Mo had no intention of reconciling with him and even held a grudge against him; it seemed she wouldn’t forgive him easily.

Men have a peculiar mentality: the more unattainable something is, the more they treasure it.

Now, as Lady Mo rejected him, he began to recall all her good qualities, and memories of their family life with their son floated in his mind, sinking him into reminiscence.

Back then, Lady Mo was gentle and virtuous, obedient to him. Their son, Ma Liancheng, no, back then called Lian Cheng, was smart and ambitious, excelling in his studies. The scholar even said he was a promising seedling, destined to achieve great things in time.

If only he hadn’t divorced his wife, by now their son would likely have become a Scholar, and Lady Mo would still be caring and submissive to him as before, everything would still be fine...

Lost in his thoughts, a horse carriage stopped at the gate of the Home for the Elderly.

The carriage curtain was drawn, and a plain-looking woman jumped down, then reached back toward the carriage.

"Miss, let me help you down!"
