Boss, Your Ex-Wife is Unreachable Now! novel Chapter 254

“I told you in the cable car, didn’t I? I don’t want to talk about him,” Willow said flatly.

She could sense that Waller was probing her. He was never the gossiping type, and she couldn’t figure out why he was suddenly so interested in this topic.

Something was off.

But Waller wasn’t ready to back down just yet—not after her response.

After all, this might be a matter of her safety.

If this Beasley guy really was her obsessive admirer, who’s to say he wouldn’t turn nasty if she rejected him?

He remembered what his father had told him in his previous life: Willow had been kidnapped and held captive in an abandoned beach house, and in the end, unable to bear the humiliation, she’d jumped from a height and died.

Back then, when he heard about her death, the news had left his head spinning, his ears ringing so loud he couldn’t bear to hear the rest of the story.

Looking back now, whoever had managed to abduct her and hide her on a deserted island villa had to be someone with means—not your average Joe. At the very least, they’d have to be wealthy.

“Do you really hate him?” Waller pressed, wanting a clear answer.

Willow frowned, feeling exasperated. What was up with this tight-lipped guy in this life?

“If you know I can’t stand him, why do you keep bringing him up?” she shot back, feigning annoyance. “You’re starting to get on my nerves, too.”

“Sorry.” Waller apologized at once, then, after a moment, grew serious. “If you hate him that much, then you should stay away from him.”

Willow was at a loss for words.

She couldn’t quite put her finger on what she was feeling.

Was he… worried she might be in danger?

But why would he be concerned about her?

They’d only met twice in this life—hardly enough to even call themselves acquaintances.

“Trust me, no one wants to stay away from him more than I do.” Willow turned her head, mumbling her reply.

“If he bothers you again, you—” Waller started to say, “you can come to me.” But then he remembered Willow had just accused him of being annoying as well, so he changed tack. “...you can go to Ryan. He’s a police officer. He’ll make sure you’re safe.”

He didn’t mention her husband.
