My Ex-Wife Remarried Me

Chapter 39: Two Rivals Under The Same Roof 

Ms.Green?

Who is that? She made honey lemonade for that little bore? Matteo tilted his head curiously and looked at Berta, and then at his father, who seemed displeased about the unwelcome guest.

"I didn't ask her to come.Send her back," Kane rejected coldly.

"But she made the honey lemonade herself, and she brought it all the way here, Mr.Ronin.You know how bad Ian's cough gets in the winter.Only honey lemonade works for him, so why not just let Ms.Green in?"

Berta was trying all she could to persuade Kane.

The hard look on the latter's face softened a little after hearing what she said.

It was true that he had a short temper, but in matters related to lan's health, he would always be extra careful.

He knew his son's seasonal cough had long been a bugging problem, so he finally caved and allowed Berta to let Hallie in.

"Hi, Kane.Hi, lan.Y'all having lunch?"

Hallie greeted them on her way in.

She was wearing an off-white sweater on top of a beige plaid winter skirt.

Without any heavy makeup on her face, she looked a little pale and tired.

"Are you okay, Ms.Green? You don't look well!"

Berta quickly came over and took the bag of honey lemonade from her hands.

"I'm fine, Berta.I was down with a little cold two days ago,’’ Hallie assured her, shaking her head as her gaze Roryered towards Kane.

She was hoping he could look at her, but Kane remained unmoved and continued eating.

He saw Matteo looking at Hallie and knocked his knuckles against the table. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"Eat, lan."

"Okay."

Matteo picked up his spoon and resumed his meal.

Who is this woman? She doesn't look like she's poor though.

But why is she dressed like this? It's so cold in the winter! I bet she's putting up a front to gain Daddy's sympathy.

She's so dramatic! A subtle smile broke across his lips as Matteo continued eating.

Hallie stood on one side with her face downcast when Kane ignored her.

She drew closer to the dining table and pulled out a pair of wool gloves from her handbag.

"Remember to take the honey lemonade, lan? I also made you a pair of gloves for the winter.You wanted me to make you a pair, didn't you? Try it on."

It was a big deal for someone of Hallie's standing to make a pair of wool gloves for someone else.

Berta came over and checked out the gloves.

"These are exquisite, Ms.Green! I can't believe you made them yourselves! This is much better than the ones sold in the stores.Check this out, Mr.Ronin, the handiwork is splendid!"

The housemaid fondled the gloves and went towards Kane, who cocked his head aside and took a cursory glance at the gloves.

It went without a doubt that they were beautifully made.

From the design and the details, Kane could tell that Hallie spent a lot of time making them.

It looked fluffy and comfortable, and the size was just nice.

His tense brows relaxed as he retracted his gaze and continued eating.

Hallie came over and picked the gloves up before turning towards Matteo.

"lan, why don't I put them on for you?"

"Sure, Matteo said with a wide smile as he reached out his hands towards Hallie.These are not mine anyway.I'll just accept them on lan’s behalf.But just when Hallie was done putting on the gloves for Matteo, a cry came from outside.”Someone had barged in unannounced.

"Kane Ronin! I heard Little lan's back? Is he okay?"

Mommy? Matteo swiftly withdrew his hands when he heard Amora's voice, while Kane and Hallie were caught by surprise.

Kane rolled his eyes when he realized it was Amora.

As for Hallie, her face contorted in hatred at the sound of that woman.

Amora Rory! Why must you come now? When Amora found out from Kylo that he almost lost lan in the morning, she freaked out and hurried over to see if everything was okay.

But she went berserk when she saw Hallie in the house.

"Why are you here? Kane Ronin! Did you let her in?"

Amora's gleaming glare pierced through Hallie the moment she saw that evil woman.

She could not believe that after all she had done to make Kane promise to keep that woman away from lan, Hallie was still given permission to come near her son.

What on earth is going on? Why is she here? Amora eyed the pair of pink indoor slippers under Hallie's feet, and her frown deepened.

Is she having lunch with them right now? What's that on lan's hands? Gloves? She's even allowed to touch my son?

The scene put a stake through her heart and Amora felt like her heart was going to explode with anger.
