Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
Halston: “…”
He never thought the formerly subservient Flossie Ellsworth could become so irritating.
She would be the death of him!
“Since I just gave you a few hundred thousand dollars, shouldn’t you unblock me out of courtesy?”
Halston resisted the urge to rush over and strangle her. He calmly argued for his rights.
After all, he just spent over a million dollars. He could not let them go to waste.
If it could get him unblocked, the money was worth it.
“Nope.”
Flossie refused without hesitation. “The money is a voluntary gift from you. If you want it back, feel free to file a lawsuit. If you think you can beat me in court, that is.”
“You…!”
Before Halston could finish talking, the sound of disconnected call came from the other end of the phone.
Goddammit, Flossie actually hung up on him!

It would be too humiliating for him to immediately call her again. Besides, she most likely would not answer.
After giving it some thought, Halston decided to try an alternative method – he would do as Xavier say and use a burner number.
“Rachel, get me a new SIM card immediately.”
He ordered coldly.
Rachel heard the entire conversation between Halston and Flossie. All she could think of right now was: “What goes around comes around!”
The proud Mr. Guajardo had been humbled.
‘As expected, one should not fall in love that easily. Once you fall in love, it doesn’t matter if you’re a pure young man or a domineering CEO, you’ll just turn into a simp!‘
The Ellsworth Residence.
After Flossie hung up on Halston, she felt inexplicably down.
Her former husband was actually acting that humble in order to persuade her to withdraw her charges against another woman. It made her feel like a failure.
She sacrificed so much and acted dignified and dutiful like a daughter–in–law of a prestigious family should. Even when she was mistreated, she merely kept quiet in order to not make it difficult for him.
All she got in return was his betrayal.
What made her really mad was, if he was going to cheat on her, at least pick a pick a good woman, like his first love Cecilia
Smith, who Flossie could accept losing to.
But he actually cheated on her with a pretentious bitch like Jessanna Ximene.
Not only was she pretentious, she’s also evil!
Losing to a bitch like that, Flossie felt the love she had given for four long years was so not worth it!
Because Flossie was in a bad mood, she went to bed early.
In the middle of the night, she suddenly woke up and could not go back to sleep anymore.
She looked out the window at the moon and could not help feeling a bit sad, so she picked up her phone to listen to some songs.
When she unlocked her phone, she saw a friend request on WeChat.
The profile picture happened to be a pearl white moon on a vast ocean, which gave off a sense of loneliness.
The verification message was: “Up for a chat?”
Flossie initially wanted to ignore it, but she happened to be a bit bored right now, so she accepted the request.
She did a quick check of the person’s friend list. It was even cleaner than his profile picture – it was completely empty. This was a brand new account.
Flossie wondered for a moment if it might be Halston’s burner.
But she soon ruled out the possibility.
Halston was the CEO of H Group. Surely he would not do something so childish.
The person did not start a covnersation. Flossie’s curiosity was piqued, so she asked, “Do I know you?”
The person’s status became “typing…“.
However, even after a long wait, no new dialog box appeared.
Flossie’s curiosity was piqued even more. She asked, “Are you new?”
+15 BONUS
Now, even the “typing…” status was gone. The person was playing dead now.
No reply?!
Flossie was originally not interested, but she now had a strong desire to conquer this challenge.
The guy was quite the character. He was probably a handsome young man that was used to women’s adoration. That’s why he’s so arrogant.
Flossie happened to be in a bad mood and wanted to pour out her negative emotions, so she simply treated the person as a tree hole.
After all, a tree hole only had to listen and never had to speak. That’s its function..
The phone lit up with a faint light in the dark room. Flossie typed a wall of text into the chat.
“Lil bro, is there anyone who really annoys you?”
“You’re young, so probably not, but big sis does know someone like that. The most ironic thing is, this person I hate is someone I used to deeply love.”
“I swear, I’ve never seen a bigger fool, so let’s call him The Fool from now on!”
On the other end of the phone, Halston sat in the brightly lit CEO’s office, looking out the window at the flashing neon lights with mixed feelings.
Flossie’s messages kept popping up, which forced him to put down his work temporarily.
He frowned when he saw the word “fool“. It made him so mad that he felt like hitting someone.
Could she have guesses that it was his burner number so she was flaming him on purpose?
He did not know what to reply, so he simply did not reply anything.
Meanwhile, Flossie’s bitter words poured out of her continuously like flood water.
