Ex Husband Goes Money Comes Chapter 396
Chapter 396 Will You Marry Me?
“Someone else?”
Hearing her words, Ormand sneered and
looked at her sharply and sarcastically. “Are you rmending yourself? Who are you again?”
Todd echoed, “One should know their
limits.”
Max’s expression turnedpletely cold.
“Mr. Hobson, I hope you will still stick to
your choice when everyone knows that Vi
is an illegitimate daughter, and you are
facing the crisis of the Hobson Group’s
plummeting stock prices.”
With a smile in her beautiful eyes, Max
sneered arrogantly and turned to leave.
Looking at her back as she got into the car, Todd spat and gnashed his teeth. “If I didn’t know better, I w
ould have thought that she
wasn’t an illegitimate daughter!
“She got into me! What’s she got to be proud
of? Who gave her the nerve?
“Leia is only neen years old, but those
tricks Leia has got only make her adorable.
On the contrary, Max makes me sick!”
Todd was indignant and cursed for a long
time, yet he could not calm down.
Ormand didn’t stop Todd. Ormand said,
‘‘Take care of Vi and Layne’s paternity
test. Make sure it’s done properly.”
“Sure thing. Mr. Hobson, I got it!”
Todd nodded and immediately entered the
visiting room.
After giving the order, Ormand carefully carried Vi to the back seat of the car.
Todd had gone to handle the matter, and to pick up Vi this time, Ormand had specially brought the d
river together with him, so that he didn’t need to drive now.
On the way, Ormand held Vi in his arms while using hisptop. It looked like he was dealing with the
company’s affairs.
The moment Vi got in the car, she opened
her eyes.
She leaned quietly in Ormand’s arms and
looked out of the window with cold eyes. She
was lost in her thoughts.
At such a critical juncture, she couldn’t fall
asleep at all, but she didn’t bother to
confront Max and listen to Max’s sarcasm.
Vi simply let Ormand handle it.
When they arrived at the garage of the
Hobson’s ce, Ormand was about to carry
Vi out of the car. Only then did he realize
that she was awake the whole time.
“How long have you been awake? Was it ufortable for you to sleep, because I
was handling business?” he asked, gently
stroking her nose with his finger.
“It was alright. I just woke up,” Vi smiled.
Ormand did not say anything. He carried her
out of the car steadily and held her tightly in
his arms. Then they went back to Viorin.
As they were passing through the winding alleys of the Hobson’s ce, Vi stared at
his face.
She hesitated for a long time before asking, “Orin, if … if I am not the daughter of the McGraw family, o
ur engagement is for
naught. Once it bes known to the entire
country, and everyone knows that you, the head of the Hobson Group, married the daughter
of a prisoner, an illegitimate daughter
who is just a nobody, the Hobson Group will suffer great losses, and you may lose billions of dors ov
ernight. Even so, you are still willing to marry me?”
Ormand listened quietly. He looked ahead
and walked with full concentration. He did
not lower his head to look at her, nor did he
immediately answer her question.
“Vi, let’s go back. I have a gift for you.”
He didn’t answer her. Vi’s heart sank.
She thought, instead of the daughter of the McGraw family, I will be an illegitimate kid whose father is a
prisoner.
The difference is unbelievably huge. Even
Ormand would hesitate…
I should be able to get it.
But I still feel so disappointed and sad.
It has only been a day. Yet within a day,
everyone turns their backs on me, and I’m all
alone.
Even Ormand fails to be the man I can rely
on when ites to things this big. I have no
one to trust but myself. I am all I have to win
everything back.
Thinking of this, she lowered her eyes sadly.
She retracted her hands that had been
around Ormand’s neck tightly.
Ormand keenly sensed the change in her
emotions.
The doctor said that pregnant women tended to be a little more skeptical than ordinary
people because of their excessive hormones. They couldn’t help it, and they needed to be
appeased.
Ormand immediately realized the words he said might havee out wrong.
He quickly added, “Vi, I wasn’t trying to dodge your question. Before I went to the visiting room to pic
k you up, I was preparing a gift for you. It took me the whole day. I was
nning on answering you while showing
you the surprise.”
It was dawn. He stood at the door of Viorin
and put her down.
He took out a ck ribbon, wanting to put it
on her.
“What are you up to?” Vi stopped him.
“Be good. Just wear it for a few minutes.
You’ll know soon enough. Trust me,”
Ormand said in a low and hoarse voice. He
hooked his thin lips mysteriously.
When their eyes met, Vi was tempted by
the burning excitement in his eyes and
agreed.
He immediately helped her put it on gently
and covered her beautiful eyes.
Then he sped her fingers and led her into
the garden carefully.
It was only when they reached the tree in the
garden that Ormand removed the ribbon
from her eyes.
“Vi, you can open your eyes now.”
Vi slowly opened her eyes and was

instantly attracted by the scene in front of
her.
The tree in the garden was covered with
small white lights. They were blinking like
stars in the sky. Behind them was the setting
sun that glowed red in the sky. It was
unexpectedly harmonious with the tree and
was very beautiful.
Under the tree, there were 9,999 green roses.
The heart of each rose was filled with a pearl.
The roses were beautiful, dazzling, and
eye–catching. Also, it went without saying that they were very expensive.
It was the first time Vi had seen so many light–green roses, and she smiled with
amazement.
Ormand walked in front of her, knelt on one
knee, and held her hand devoutly.
His pair of shimmering eyes were filled with love and gentleness, and she was all he could
see.
“Vi, our rtionship began with an
agreement, and we are about to get married
because of the babies. But this is a must for
other girls, and my Vi is no exception.”
He lifted his face and spoke earnestly and
calmly, “Vi, if you are not the daughter of
the McGraw family, if our engagement has to be canceled, then I will propose to you
again.”
Vi trumped everything, including any position and money.
He took out the diamond ring box that he had already prepared and opened it in front
of her.
Inside was an 18–carat ruby diamond ring, which was unique in the world.
He specifically sent Todd overseas a while
back to buy it for 1.55 billion dors at a
charity auction. Then he had someone carve
the abbreviation of Vi’s name.
“Vi, will you marry me?”
Vi was slightly stunned. She looked at the
ruby diamond ring in his hands and then
looked at Ormand’s extremely handsome
face. Her eyes gradually turned red.
All of the loneliness, unwillingness, and disappointment in her heart were gone. She
was moved beyond words.
She was suspecting that Ormand might give her up or love her less because of her
identity, while Ormand went out of his way to surprise her, to fill her heart.
He was the man she loved deeply.
He was also the man who loved her the most
in the world.
“Vi, my knees hurt. Just say yes.” Ormand
hadn’t gotten her answer, so he said softly
and gently like he was a spoiled child.
