A Vengeful Ex-Wife

Chapter 493 Sensational Wedding

Coy couldn't even beat a little girl. Just the thought of it filled him with humiliation. Mona, with her hair in a single pigtail. offered him a lion-shaped toy. “Coy, this is my gift for you."

Coy gave the toy one quick glance. Then he crossed his arms over his chest and snorted. "I don't want it. I have a cabinet full of toys at home." His father had bought him every one of them.

At the memory of it, he began to miss his father.

Mona, who had been eager to give him this gift, made no effort to hide her disappointment. Her mother had told her that Coy was fond of lions. She had expected him to be delighted. ‘Why doesn't he want it now?' she wondered. "You have to accept my gift and thank me for it," she said, her tone a little stern.

"No way!"

After saying that, Coy turned around and left.

Mona trotted after him and shouted, "You have to accept it!"

"I don't want it so I won't accept!" he spat back, annoyed

"Let's have a duel. If you lose, you have to take it!"

Coy knew that he couldn't beat Mona. "I can’t fight with you. My mommy said that I am not supposed to beat a girl."

"Well, I think you are lying because you are afraid you won t win.”

Mona's words hit where it hurt the most. Coy blushed crimson with embarrassment.

He took a deep breath, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Fine! If that's what you think, then let's fight. I want to show you I am not afraid of you!" "Okay!"

As they fought, one of the teachers saw them. She hurried to stop them. Mona had just tripped over Coy. Lying on the ground, he was forced to take over the toy from her.

For the first time in his life, he saw everyone laugh at him. Annoyed. he swore to himself that he would defeat all the children in the kindergarten in a week's time.

On the other hand, Maria and James’ relationship began to improve gradually after she had given birth to the baby.

James made it a point to take good care of her, giving her everything she wanted. However, an unfortunate incident happened when Maria was only seven months pregnant.

On her way back from the company, she met with a car accident. The driver of the other car was drunk.

Staying near the incubator, James kept a close watch on his daughter. In fact, he skipped sleep for several days for her sake. The sole duty of his life became caring for his daughter and wife.

He ensured his baby was given the most advanced type of incubator. It cost him more than ten thousand dollars per day. According to the little girl's physical condition, she had to stay in it for several weeks before it was safe. In addition to this, he had pay several other medical fees. Within a few days of her arrival, she had already spent millions of dollars.

She had been fortunate enough to be born in the Xi family. James was the sort of father who wanted nothing but the best for his family. What pained him was to watch her in pain. Everybody felt sorry and their hearts wept for her.

Every time Coy and Bob went to the hospital, they would bend on the windowsill and take a look at the baby in the incubator. They were sad to see that she was always asleep. They wondered if she would ever be awake when they visited.

Maria wasn't a week woman. She rarely shed tears.

However, every time she saw her little girl’s body lying in the incubator, she felt devastated. Her heart ached for her child. Her eyes would film over with tears.

She held herself responsible for what happened. If she had chosen to work at home during her pregnancy, none of this would have happened. She felt she was the reason behind her daughter's condition.

They took another look at their little girl. James held Maria's shoulder and went back to the ward

Sebastian gave her the pet name Princess. After all, she was the little princess of the Xi family.

Her formal name was Priscilla Xi, which was chosen by Maria.

Like her two elder brothers, both her pet name and formal name had the same initials.

For now, name wasn't their priority. It didn’t matter much. They were waiting for her speedy recovery.

After staying in the incubator for five weeks, Priscilla was taken out and was allowed to return home with her mother.

Tears of happiness welled up in Maria's eyes as she held the little baby in her arms.

After the family returned to the manor, James hired professional nutritionists, chefs, and nannies to take care of every aspect of his baby girl's life. All of their prayers were answered. As time went by, her health got better and better.

While James was home, he made it his duty to take care of her. He wouldn't allow anyone else to help. He even went out of his way to wash her clothes and socks.

As for Maria, she loved James with all her heart. She had never loved another man. The mere thought of being his wife brought contentment to her mind.

When she thought about her children, she was convinced this was the right decision. She had to do this for the sake of her children.
