The Billionaire Ex-Wife and the Beggar He Became novel Chapter 208

"Yes!"

Winona gritted her teeth, her voice shaking with anger. "I never did anything to you! I never got in your way! Not once, not ever! I know you love Felicity—I stepped aside for you two, didn't I? I put the divorce papers right in your hands, Julian. In your hands!"

"But you dragged things out for so long, and somehow, you think I'm the problem? That I'm the one clinging to you? That I'm standing in Felicity's way? You and your friends, her friends, all ganging up just to destroy me!"

"Don't you people worry about karma even a little?"

"You're all garbage!"

Just thinking about it made Winona's blood boil.

If Yves Prescott hadn't shown up in time that day, she would have been left at the mercy of a gang of vagrants.

With that, Winona ended the call.

On the other end, Julian stood there, stunned, the phone still pressed to his ear.

He wanted to ask Shera if she'd really been bothering Winona's godmother, Mia, but with Victor in surgery and his oldest sister sobbing in the hallway outside, he just couldn't.
