MY EX-HUSBAND WILD DESIRES

*Meet again*

"Your mother needs immediate surgery to save her life."

The doctor's firm voice suddenly made Anna hold her breath for a moment.

For a year now, Martha, Anna's mother, has been suffering from kidney failure, requiring regular dialysis. Complications have worsened her condition, requiring Martha to remain hospitalized for the past few months.

All her possessions had been sold off so Anna didn't know where to find the money for the exorbitant cost of the operation.

"Does it have to be now, Doctor? Can it be postponed? I don't have any money yet. Can we just treat it normally?" Anna tried to bargain.

"Looking at his condition now, we are worried that his heart will suddenly stop during dialysis...."

Anna held her breath again. Her heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a blunt object, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Unable to stop it, Anna's tears fell as she felt how the world could turn around in an instant.

Anna once lived a life of luxury. Born into a wealthy and respected family, Anna was a princess who had everything.

However, the company suddenly went bankrupt, the cooperation failed, all assets were confiscated, debts were everywhere.

Her mother was seriously ill and what was even more painful was that Anna's father ran away irresponsibly after defrauding many people while taking all their remaining possessions.

Cruelly, Anna's father let Anna fight alone for Martha's recovery without caring whether Martha lived or died at this time.

Anna's heart was pounding. Anger and despair mixed together, and she rushed home to seek help from Jeremy, her husband of six years.

"I need money for my mother's kidney transplant. Lend me some money, Jeremy! I swear I'll pay it back in installments."

Jeremy, who was busy with his work, immediately glared at Anna.

"What, Anna? Borrow money? You forgot that all my money was taken by your bastard father, huh?"

Anna shuddered. Jeremy had also been a victim of Anna's father's misconduct, causing Jeremy's company to be in dire straits and now on the verge of bankruptcy.

"Jeremy, please, just once! I know you still have savings, lend them to me first to save my mother!"

F*CK!

Jeremy slammed his fist on the table.

"Anna, realize that you are no longer a princess who can get everything just because you want it! I don't have any money anymore!"

"But if you manage to get investors to save the company, maybe I can give you the money...."

Anna's tears flowed even more heavily.

This is too much. I don't know if Martha can hold out until Anna finds investors, and finding investors for their company is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's incredibly difficult.

In fact, after meeting many entrepreneurs, spreading many proposals, trying day and night, there was still no crazy person who was willing to waste his money to invest in a company that was almost dead like theirs.

However, a call that afternoon to her cell phone suddenly made Anna find hope again.

"Global Delta Group has agreed to become an investor in our company, ma'am. The leader wants to meet you tomorrow morning."

"Is that true? Tell me you're coming! I'll definitely be there," Anna replied with a look that sparkled with hope.

The next day, Anna tidied up her appearance. Anna had been with the company for a long time and had experienced its decline until everything slowly collapsed.

Staff reductions are inevitable. In fact, the remaining employees are already two months behind on their salaries.

It's so sad. From having everything to having nothing, that's Anna's current situation.

However, Anna did not want to wallow in her sadness and tried to smile to welcome her only new hope.

Quickly, Anna arrived at the Global Delta Group building, a large, magnificent, and growing construction company.

"With Mrs. Anna? Please come with me, Mr. Diego is waiting for you," said the secretary.

Anna's smile faded slightly upon hearing that name. When she submitted the proposal, she had only communicated with the company manager, and with so many companies she had visited, she hadn't had time to find out about the company leaders.

However, that name made Anna immediately fall silent.

Diego.

The name reminded her of a figure Anna wanted to forget.

The man with that name was the man whose life Anna had heartlessly destroyed six years ago.

The man who made Anna feel so guilty, but also helpless.

The man was Anna's ex-husband whom Anna loved very much.

Yes, Anna had been married before she married Jeremy.

Their marriage was disapproved of because Diego was a poor young man. So, heartlessly, Anna's father framed Diego and threw him in prison.

Anna's chest tightened at the memory. She didn't know how Diego was doing since he'd been released from prison. But one thing was for sure: she was certain he would hate her until he died, and the mere thought of him made her shudder.

"Excuse me, ma'am! We've arrived, please come in!"

The secretary's voice interrupted Anna's reverie.

"Oh, thank you!"

While tidying up her formal suit, Anna entered the room and tried to smile as she looked at the back of a tall and handsome man, one hand holding a drinking glass and the other hand tucked into his trouser pocket.

The man was standing staring out of the large window which directly displayed a view of the busy city streets.

"Good morning, sir! You must be Mr. Diego, the head of Global Delta Group. Let me introduce myself, I'm Anna from Novarecon Company," Anna greeted politely.

The man grinned when he heard Anna's voice, a voice he hadn't heard for a long time.

"Mrs. Anna William from Novarecon Company!" the man repeated, making Anna frown.

Why did the man's voice sound so familiar to her? Had they met before?

Anna was still guessing until the company leader turned around and made Anna's eyes widen.

"Mrs. Anna Williams finally we meet again!
