My coldhearted ex demands a remarriage

Chapter 680:

Raised by her grandmother in a small town, Carrie had mastered the art of reading people and ingratiating herself from a young age to avoid being mistreated.

Facing Marina, Carrie responded calmly, “Actually, Reece made this himself.”

“That’s impossible!” Marina’s eyes bulged with astonishment.

“Believe it or not,” Carrie replied casually, then added, “You might want to check Arion’s WhatsApp status for confirmation.”

She had just seen a recent update from Arion—a picture of Reece busy in the kitchen.

As Carrie reached for the sandwich again…

“Hold on!” Marina blocked her hand and quickly pulled out her phone. Quickly navigating to WhatsApp, Marina pulled up Arion’s profile and tapped on his status.

A photo of Reece, wearing an apron and expertly frying an egg, was proudly showcased.

The egg shown in the picture was a perfect match for the one on their table. Holding her phone firmly, Marina was taken aback by the level of indulgence the Morrisons showed Carrie.

Carrie, merely a distant cousin long estranged from the Morrisons, hadn’t been in touch for over two decades. Marina had thought their kindness was merely a courteous gesture for Mr. Josh Morrison.

Yet, it seemed the Morrisons were more affectionate towards her even out of sight.

Carrie looked over at Marina’s phone and said lazily, “You see? Now do you believe me? Can I please have my breakfast?” She reached out for the egg dish once more.

Marina set her phone down and quickly intercepted her hand.

“Wait, I’ll give you a thousand dollars for your breakfast,” Marina blurted out hastily.

Carrie shook her head and said, “No, I’m really hungry, and a thousand dollars isn’t tempting.”

Marina immediately raised the offer. “How about ten thousand dollars for it?”

Still, Carrie shook her head.

Marina, frustrated, offered more, saying, “A hundred thousand then!”

Finding Marina’s desperation amusing, Carrie raised three fingers playfully. “Make it three hundred thousand.”

Marina’s eyes narrowed. “Three hundred thousand, really? Fine, done!”

“Sold!” Carrie immediately slid the plate towards Marina.noveldrama

Having just paid three hundred thousand for a simple meal, Marina felt a sting of annoyance. “Your greed is showing. You bring your provincial ways here and disgrace the Morrison name.”

“If you’re buying it, why complain? Actually, I’ll just take it back and eat it myself. Honestly, if I needed three hundred thousand, Reece would simply give it to me,” Carrie retorted, pretending to make a move to reclaim her breakfast.
