There He Is Again My Ex Husband by Emily Jenkins

Chapter 800

Chapter 800

Anya smiled, "Thank you."

She added, "The dresses you designed for each of us are pretty. They fit everyone. I love it."

Nina suggested that everyone should wear a dress today and she designed all the colors and styles.

Nina started to develop her side hustles now. Her main career was still acting and she just signed a contract for a big movie.

As a sophisticated person, she knew the rules of the entertainment industry well; no one would always be popular, just as no flower could bloom forever.

She should find the right time to gracefully retreat from the industry little by little when she had already made her reputation and had earned a lot of money. She would not throw herself into frantic acting and other work in order to be famous and make money like before.

She would slow down to select suitable scripts and good film teams. It was enough for her to act in one movie a year and she would spend the rest of the months cultivating other hobbies and keeping more company with her lover.

Costume designing was one of her intended side hustles. In fact, she was fond of it long before, but she did not really start to do it then.

Her proposal of dressing like this at Jean's wedding was said on a whim. Everyone believed in her and the designing part was thus assigned to her. She then designed a blandly bluish-white dress for Maisie, an elegantly black one for Emelia, a gorgeously purple one for herself, and a clean water blue one for Anya.

"I'm glad you like it. My design is actually normal and it is your beauty that makes the dress pretty."

Nina was very modest about it.

The ladies forgot the disturbing presence of Ezra by talking about other things.

In another room, Ezra received an unpleasant look from Julian as soon as he sat down. "Why are you here?"

What Julian thought in his mind at this moment was whether Emelia would regard him as a liar who was colluding with Ezra and told her Ezra would not come.

When Julian thought that Emelia may be annoyed with him, he became immediately pissed off with Ezra and talked to him in a bad mood.

Ezra said carelessly, "Even if there are millions of difficulties before me, I have to come to my good friend's wedding."

Julian stared at him for a long time, frowning. Finally, he said quietly, "You better have no other ideas."

If Ezra dared to approach Maisie again, Julian would be the first one to make things very difficult for Ezra.

Ezra understood the warning in Julian's words. He then raised his glass to Julian and smiled. "Don't think too much."

Julian grunted coldly and did not clink his glass against Ezra's. Julian thought, "It's better that Ezra doesn't have other intentions."

Phil, who was sitting next to them, glanced at Ezra and then said to Julian, "To be honest, Maisie is incredibly stunning today. I don't even recognize her.

"Julian, I don't know she turns out to be a beauty, though she's been working as your assistant for so many years. Just now, I saw several men go to the ladies' table and try to chat with her."

Ezra put down his glass and looked at Phil. Ezra knew that Phil was irritating him.

But Ezra also had to admit that Phil was right. Today, Maisie… was indeed super stunning. He did not even recognize her.

Phil stopped suddenly when he was about to say something else. Ezra followed Phil's gaze and found Maisie got up and walked towards their table.

Inexplicably, his heart suddenly palpitated.

The next second, he became a little bit hopeful. Would Maisie come… for him?

However, after she walked over beautifully, she said to Julian instead of Ezra, "Mr. Hughes, I have to catch my flight. So, I must go now."

"Well, have a safe flight," Julian said to her softly as if he had known her plan before.

After informing Julian, Maisie looked at the other men at the table, "Take your time. Bye, Mr. Henderson, Mr. Dauster, and Mr. Cantillo. Sorry, I've got to go."

Maisie regarded Ezra as a normal friend like Phil Henderson and Cameron Dauster, without paying extra attention to him.

"Have a nice trip," Phil and Cameron responded politely.

"Thanks," she said and was about to turn and leave.

Ezra was distracted for a time by the unexpected situation. So, Maisie actually came over to say goodbye to them, instead of…

Ezra compressed his lips. When Maisie was stepping away, he said carelessly, "Why are you leaving so soon?"

The active talk Ezra picked up caused Julian to look at him disapprovingly.

However, Maisie did not seem to mind it. She stood up to look at Ezra and greeted him politely, "Mr. Cantillo, long time no see."

Then she explained with a smile, "I still have something to do in Grafstin. I have also informed Jean that I'm going to catch a flight home tonight."

Ezra curved his lips and said nothing. But there was a mocking look on his face as if he did not believe her words.

Maisie did not care what he thought and turned away without staying long.

Maisie went to Jean and said goodbye to her and Arthur. When Arthur left to arrange for a car to take Maisie to the airport, Jean and Maisie went aside and Jean asked in a low voice, "When you said goodbye just then, Ezra didn't do anything to you, right?"

Maisie smiled with a wry face, "What can he do? There are so many people around. Besides, he must expect that we will never meet each other again. He doesn't want me to pester him anymore. So, how could he do anything to me?"

When Maisie got up and walked toward the men's table, she could feel Ezra's tension for a moment.

At that time, she thought to her mockingly, "Does he have to be so nervous?

"Is it because he is still afraid that I will continue to pester him?

"I don't blame him for thinking so. After all, his exes must keep crying and pestering him after the breakup. He must have been fed up with it."

Jean said with guilt, "It's good that he didn't do anything. Arthur and I don't know why he suddenly came to dinner tonight. He had told Arthur explicitly that he would not come."

Jean gritted her teeth and grunted, "I didn't have time to ask Arthur whether he had lied to me. If so, he'll be in deep shit!"

Jean thought the same as Emelia. Julian and Arthur were probably going to be questioned seriously.

"Why are you apologizing to me?" Maisie smiled and gently patted Jean' on her shoulder. "I'm very happy today. We are all here, chatting from noon till now. I'm very happy and very excited."

"By the way, Anya, the young girl, I think that she gets heavy stress after knowing her story. If you have time, please talk to her and enlighten her." Maisie was a kind person and Anya's condition was really heartbreaking.

Jean was a professional psychologist.

If Anya was willing to talk more with Jean, she might feel better.

Jean did not yet know Anya's story because she had been busy toasting with Arthur. Since Maisie requested so, Jean nodded and said, "OK."

When the two were talking, Arthur returned and said to Maisie, "The driver will be here soon."

Maisie nodded, "Then I'll go wait outside and leave you to it. And I'll call you when I get to the airport."

Maisie then turned around and left the banquet hall. Nearby, Ezra also got up and walked out.
