Im the Obsession of My Cold–Hearted Ex

Chapter 286 A Toast to Tangled Hearts.

“Besides looks and physique, what else do you think Morty likes about me?” she asked casually.

“You could just ask him directly. Maya pondered for a moment. “Don’t let one failed marriage make you think you lack charm: you need to have confidence in yourself.”

After years of trying and failing to make Easton fall for her, Ellis didn’t feel unlovable, but Morty’s affection for her seemed utterly implausible.

If Morty wasn’t Easton’s childhood friend, if he hadn’t been a double–faced person before, using disgusting tactics of saying one thing to her face and another behind her back, then based on his caring and helpful actions, he seemed quite capable of making a good impression.

Wait, a good impression? Her thoughts wandered there, and she tapped her head a bit too hard.

As the saying goes, old habits die hard. Changing Morty’s double–faced ways would be tough, wouldn’t it?

She shouldn’t be fooled by his act, nor should she foolishly develop some weird fondness.

“Are you nuts, hitting your own head?” Maya asked, puzzled.

“Not nuts, just thinking…” Ellis pursed her red lips, “Am I so starved for love that I get moved by any small act of kindness?” “You starved for love?” Maya’s expression teetered between wanting to laugh and staying serious.

She wasn’t mocking Ellis, just finding the statement somewhat humorous.

Adjusting her expression, Maya continued, “If you were really starved for love, you wouldn’t have stayed married to Easton for three years before divorcing him, especially since he didn’t even want to have kids with you.”

Maya’s words hit the bullseye, and Ellis closed her eyes, shifting her position to lie on her side, turning away from Maya, and muttered as if in agony. “Being married to him felt like having a criminal record.”

“You should think about how to get Morty to give up hope, Maya advised.

“From him…” At this, Ellis realized a painful truth, “I finally understand how much I must have annoyed Easton.”

Being pestered by someone you dislike is incredibly irritating

Though she didn’t want to send Morty to heaven, she did think about sending Easton there.

Why did Easton keep pressing for a reconciliation? No, it had been days since Easton had last appeared before her.

Rejected in his marriage proposal, that arrogant and heartless man, was his pride hurt? Therefore, he hadn’t brought up reconciliation again, perhaps going off happily with Victoria instead!

“Regardless of whose side you’re on, just trying to win the affection of someone you like isn’t wrong,” Maya half–agreed with Ellis, “as long as the pursuit isn’t off–putting”

Even after marriage, she had behaved like she was still chasing him.

Thinking about it, it was almost like Easton was seriously ill Clearly not loving her, he should have divorced her sooner. Otherwise, without the label of Easton’s wife, she wouldn’t have been kidnapped.

In those moments, she had desperately hoped for Easton to come and rescue her, and wished for his presence in any other danger, to protect her from everything, allowing her to just watch quietly.

The most recent danger had occurred during the company’s annual party, when Morty had rescued her just before things escalated
