There He Is Again, My Ex-Husband novel Chapter 1054

After leaving his company, Phil found himself having nowhere to go.

He was not in Riverside City where he could go to Julian’s or Ezra’s companies whenever he was in a bad mood. He would be happier by just sitting in their offices when his friends were busy working.

But he had no friends here. He did not want to go back to his empty home either. After driving around for a while, he chose to go to Anya’s house.

Anya went to school and was not at home. But he could find some comfort here. Especially when he threw himself on her sofa and leaned on her pillow, he slowly calmed down.

After sitting for a while, he felt the surrounding area was too quiet to stand. He simply turned on the TV and lay on the sofa.

If not for the hint of blood ties, he would have broken off the relationships with Trevon and Cara, and even have announced the news in the newspaper so that everyone would know it.

Julian and the other two friends had told him not to be so hardhearted.

But Phil could not understand why his parents would be so cold, especially his mother Cara. His friends were all loved by their mothers.

Even if Heather did not have a deep relationship with Julian, she cared and was very concerned about her son.

Ezra too. Although he never had his father’s company, Nancy loved him gently. Arthur was the happiest and luckiest son among the Riverside Kings. His parents loved each other and cherished him.

But Phil alone was not cared for by his father nor loved by his mother.

Luckily, the old Mrs. Henderson had been keeping him company. It was because of Grandma’s unconditional love that Phil hated that cold couple even more.

Anya came back from school. When she opened the door, she saw the man lying on the sofa in the living room. She was annoyed a bit. Did he take this place as his own home?

She gave him the key just to make it easier for him to come and cook. He could not just come in whenever he wanted!

He was really thick-skinned. The owner of the house was back and he was still lying there without moving.

Did he fall asleep?

Why could he sleep here in broad daylight? Didn’t he need to work?

How could he just skip work like this?

Didn’t he just move here and open a branch? Why could he be so idle?

Anya learned from Maisie that Phil had opened a branch after he moved to Ustistan. Maisie said that he was very busy and had been handling the branch business all these days. If it was not for all these chores, he would have gone to her place long ago, instead of showing up in a hurry until she was angry with Gracie’s phone call that day.

Anya put down her things and walked over. She stood aside angrily and said to the man on the sofa, “Why do you come to my house instead of going to work by day?"

Anya’s impression of Phil was that he was ambitious. It was said that when the Kings started their business, they worked very hard, or they would not have attained today’s achievements.

During the years when she was Phil’s girlfriend and wife, he worked quite hard and only made time for her business. Except for her, nothing was as important as his business.

But today, in broad daylight, he was lying on her sofa and sleeping.

“You can just play around with her. Why marry her!”

Generally, such words for a girl were awful, hurtful, and humiliating, especially words like “PLAY AROUND”.

But it was strange that Anya did not feel angry or humiliated. Anya just found that the woman was ridiculous, as she was bossing Phil around.

Perhaps it was because she did not want to maintain the marriage with Phil at all then. She expected the middle-aged couple to destroy their marriage.

From the looks of the couple, Anya guessed that they were Phil’s parents. But why did that woman… did not know Phil’s poor temper?

Phil could not stand others’ slightest criticism. It would drive him mad.

As she expected, Phil shrieked furiously, “Fuck off!”

Perhaps, the words “fuck off” were so hurtful that the woman froze at where she stood in total astonishment. The middle-aged man, instead, was trembling with agitation and said, “Fuck off? This is your attitude towards your parents?”

“If I didn’t take you as my parents, you wouldn’t even be able to enter this house.”

Then, Phil strode towards Anya and held her close to his chest, declaring to the couple word by word, “I marry her because I love her and I want to live with her for life. I am not playing around.

“Also, it is my last time to say, that you are not qualified to express any of your opinions on my marriage! Because you have never done your duty as my parents!”
