Hunting for His EX-Wife

Leah turned her head mischievously and looked at her own mother.

The man standing next to her had deepening eyes and a hint of a smile on his lips.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Rose’s cheeks turned slightly red, and there was a rare tenderness on her face. When she heard Leah’s words, she was taken aback and looked at the father and daughter in front of her with some confusion.

If she hadn’t broken up with Elliot back then, would this scene be real now?

She has always known that her three children want a complete family.

Can they go back to the past now?

Rose’s eyes flickered slightly as she whispered, “I’ll go take a shower first.”

After saying this, she turned around and walked straight to her room upstairs.

Elliot, who stood in place, looked at Rose’s departing direction with deep eyes, and his face also showed a rare softness.

Half an hour later, Rose had just walked out of the bathroom when she saw a tall and slender man, also wearing a bathrobe, leaning against the wall and looking at her with deep-set eyes.

Although the lighting was dim at this moment, for some reason she could feel Elliot’s profound gaze.

She suddenly felt inexplicably nervous, glanced sideways and avoided the man’s gaze, preparing to go downstairs to chat with her daughter.

As she walked past Elliot, he reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his arms.

Without another word, he turned around and confined her within his arms.

Without waiting for Rose’s reaction, Elliot leaned in, lowered his head, and gently sniffed Rose’s neck twice.

The woman felt a slight itch on her neck and shrank back slightly, but for some reason, she didn’t want to refuse.

He held her slender waist firmly, lowered his head, and kissed her red lips, his lips boldly invading hers.

Soon, under the gentle assault of this man, Rose began to lose herself.

Just at that moment, the warmth on her lips disappeared, and she heard Elliot’s hoarse voice, “How about having a child with me?”

The scene just now in the living room gave him a warm feeling, like home.

If they also have a child together, would the scene be just as warm and harmonious?

Elliot already had in mind the joy of getting along as the family of three.

But his words brought clarity to her hazy gaze.

Rose’s expression turned cold. “Doesn’t Mr. Harper already have a son?”

“There are plenty of women who want to have children with Mr. Harper, and I’m not one to miss out,” he retorted.

She sneered at Elliot before turning around and leaving the room.

As soon as she stepped outside, she heard hurried footsteps coming from downstairs.

Curious, Rose went down only to find an angry old man storming in.

It was Elliot’s grandfather.

She pursed her lips and remained silent.

Old Mr. Harper, arrived looking disheveled and immediately saw the woman standing there. His face darkened instantly. “What are you doing here?”

Elliot had come downstairs by then and upon seeing his grandfather nearby, he quickly stepped forward and shielded Rose behind him. His gaze was icy as he looked at old Mr. Harper. “Why did you come back?”

“If I hadn’t come back, how would I have known how much abuse Madeleine has endured because of you two!” old Mr. Harper fumed as he glared at the man standing before him while his anger continued to grow inside him.

“Elliot, can’t you just behave yourself? Madeleine worked hard preparing for your wedding day but why did it turn into such a disaster when it should have been perfect?”

“Are you trying to provoke me on purpose?”

Old Mr. Harper hurled insults relentlessly while gasping for breath between each sentence.

Throughout all this time though, Elliot remained silent with an impassive expression on his face as he stared at his grandfather who stood nearby without saying a word.

Old Mr. Harper, however, this silence felt like resistance that only fueled his rage even further.

Pointing towards Rose who was being protected by Elliot behind him now; old Mr. Harper shouted furiously, “You won’t marry Madeleine because of this woman who has ruined our family name?! Do you know that she isn’t even worthy enough to be Madeleine’s shoe polisher?”

“Do you realize what kind of rumors were spread about our family after those pictures surfaced online showing You kissing this shameless woman in public? It is all your fault that the Harper Group’s stocks plummeted so drastically! Are you trying to kill me off or something?”

Old Mr. Harper grew angrier with each passing moment until finally raising up the cane in his hand; He swung it fiercely towards both individuals!

Instinctively turning around; Elliot shielded Rose from harm’s way once again!

The cane struck the man repeatedly, causing Rose, who was being protected in his embrace, to feel the slight tremble of his body and even see the sweat beads on his forehead.

However, Elliot remained silent and endured it all.

Old Mr. Harper was getting older and began to pant heavily after moving his hands. He retrieved the cane and forcefully tapped it on the ground.

“Elliot, I hope you’ve learned your lesson this time!”

Rose furrowed her eyebrows slightly and couldn’t help but want to speak up for Elliot. But before she could say anything, he reached out and pulled her arm while shaking his head slightly.

He wanted to bear his grandfather’s anger alone without letting Rose be blamed again because of him.

Rose looked at Elliot with a complicated expression in her eyes. She couldn’t help but feel sorry for this man.

When they got married years ago, she had seen Mr. Harper once but never thought things would escalate like this.

At that moment, Leah heard all the commotion from inside the kitchen and came running out nervously. When she saw an old man standing nearby with an angry look on his face. She walked over timidly towards her mommy.

“Mommy.” old Mr. Harper glared at Leah as he became angrier while tapping on his cane again.

“This child isn’t even yours! Do you want to raise someone else’s child?”

“And Rose, this uneducated woman has no right to stay in the Harper Villa!”

“You make sure they both leave my house now! Don’t let me see them here again!”

Elliot couldn’t take it anymore after hearing those words; he lifted up his gaze with determination as he stared at Mr. Harper who stood not far away from him.

“That’s enough! My affairs have nothing to do with Rose so don’t involve her.”

“They are staying here because I insisted on asking so.”

Leah felt scared upon hearing their argument; she shrank back nervously while watching them silently without speaking a word.

But deep down inside Leah felt relieved that her daddy defended herself and her mommy!

Old Mr. Harper had a cold expression as he stared at Elliot intently before saying in a low voice, “Don’t forget that you can only marry Madeleine.”

“I only recognize Madeleine as my granddaughter-in-law.”

“Not just anyone can marry into the Harper family!”
