Revenge Against My Ex-husband novel Chapter 25

They were all stunned. Kinsey was the first to react. Sneering, she sad in a provocative tone, "Hey! Isn't this Lily the Home Wrecker?"

Hearing that, everyone in the shop fixed their eyes on Lily. Lily's face turned red. As a famous socialite in San Fetillo, she was humiliated by what Kinsey called her.  

"It seems that the adulterer is going to turn you into a proper second wife now?" A hint of sarcasm flashed across Kinsey's face. "Even a mistress is shameless enough to wear a nice gown these days. Times have really changed."

Lily was so embarrassed that she was dying to find a place to hide. But Kinsey didn't intend to let her off the hook easily. "Have you ever thought about karma when you destroy other people's family? Tell you what. You're gonna have a son without as*hole. That's the price you'll have to pay."

"Kinsey!" Irene knew Kinsey well and was sure that she would keep coming down on Lily. She pushed Kinsey into the fitting room. "Try this on first. I'm going to the restroom." 

Blushing in shame, Lily felt all the joy turned bitter. She looked around for Edric but couldn't find him. So she grabbed another random dress, bowed her head, and went back to the fitting room.

Irene asked a shop assistant for the location of the restroom. She met a pair of dark eyes when she walked out of the restroom. Edric was here too? 

He really doted on Lily and even came to pick a dress for her himself. Irene mocked herself bitterly. When had he ever been so considerate to herself in the past? She was ready to brush past him with a deadpan look, but Edric stopped her.

He stared at her and said, "I want to hear your explanation."

"What?" Irene was stunned.

"Irene, why did you ask Kinsey to say that?"

Irene only realized now that Edric probably heard what Kinsey said to Lily and came here to confront her. She remained silent and felt a chill in her heart. She was ready to leave but Edric grabbed her hand. "I won't allow you to bully my woman!"

"Sir, what do you want?" Irene didn't even bother to say his name. 

"Apologize! I want you to apologize to Lily." Edric clutched Irene's hand, his fingers turning a little pale. The apathy in Irene's eyes struck his nerve. She treated him like a total stranger after three years. How heartless could this woman be? 

Irene suddenly was choked with emotion. She had tried to not pay attention to this man, but there was no way to stop him from marching into San Fetillo. San Fetillo was her home, yet now she couldn't go back since this man had become the lord of San Fetillo.

She had thought about making a fortune, buying a house, and taking her uncle away. But it was never easy to make enough money. She had been struggling for the past few years and had no choice but to follow Jordan here. She thought about meeting this man again, yet she never expected it to turn out like this. 

"He wanted me to apologize to his new lover?" Irene suddenly felt a little sad for herself. "Why should I hide from this man?"

He was the one who hurt her, yet she had to pay the price. She left her hometown and wandered from place to place. She was a coward after all. She wasn't the one who did the wrong thing. What was she afraid of? 

"Why?" Irene sneered and tried to break free from his hand. But Edric grabbed her tight. She glared at him and said, "Myers, why are you afraid of people talking about it when you had the guts to do it?"

Her temper did not change at all. She was still so headstrong and refused to give in. Edric's body froze when he heard her calling him Myers. He couldn't help but let go of her.

Kinsey came out, wearing the dress. Irene had a good eye, and the dress looked very nice on Kinsey. She happily bought it right away.

Kinsey noticed the downcast look on Irene's face. She thought it was because of their encounter with Lily. "Irene, that b*tch isn't worth your time."

Irene forced a smile. Although she had been separated from Edric for three years and had moved on from everything, it was impossible to say that she didn't care at all anymore. Edric's aggressive look just now distressed her and she didn't want to stay here any longer. "Kinsey, let's go."

Kinsey nodded and ordered the shop assistant to pack the clothes. At this moment, Edric suddenly appeared. Kinsey was startled when she saw him. She witnessed the relationship between Irene and Edric and was partially responsible for fixing Irene up with Edric. Irene wasn't sure if she should be with Edric, and it was Kinsey who convinced her to accept their love bravely. 

Kinsey was furious whenever she recalled how Edric vowed to treat Irene well, yet forgot it all and got himself a mistress only a few years into their marriage.

"I was wondering why we're so unlucky today. It turns out that we keep running into shameless people because we picked a bad day."

Waiting in the fitting room, Lily heard her clearly. It was time for her to go out. Kinsey was so hot-tempered that she would vent her anger regardless of the occasion. 

Edric was not a pushover and would definitely lose his temper if Kinsey said something offensive. Things would get interesting at that time. Thinking of this, she immediately opened the door and walked out. "Edric, do I look good?" Her voice was so soft and silvery.

Edric certainly picked up the dissatisfaction in Kinsey's voice. He was a little embarrassed. But he cracked a charming smile as soon as he caught a glimpse of Irene's indifferent expression. He answered with a gentle voice, "It's beautiful!"
