Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

As she watched them engrossed in lively conversation, Dulcie lowered her gaze and quietly slipped away, deciding to wait in the car until the banquet ended.

Engaged in work chatter with Kyson, Lucinda couldnt resist mentioning Dulcie again.

Dulcie is quite lovely.

Even Destinee seems fond of her.noveldrama

Dont let her slip away.

Kyson smiled ruefully and shook his head.

You know me too well, Lucinda… Shifting his feelings to someone new wasnt something that came easily to him.

Dulcie wasnt unpleasant to him, but she wasnt captivating either.

Their relationship was strictly contractual. Deciding not to press further, Lucinda changed the subject.

Colbys been doing much better lately.

Ive been taking him outdoors more.

The mention of Colby brought a flicker of guilt to Kysons eyes, and he averted his gaze.

Lucinda, Colbys idea to renovate the aquariumits quite ambitious and challenging.

Im at a loss on where to start.

Do you think hes upset with me? No, he simply wanted to challenge you.

He understands its a daunting task and doesnt expect you to complete it.

Just give it your best shot.

She bid Kyson a quick goodbye and happily joined her husband, linking arms with him naturally.

Watching them depart, Kysons blue eyes dimmed, his expression inscrutable.

After a while, he recalled Dulcie mentioning she needed to visit the restroom.

It had been some time, and she hadnt returned.

Scanning the crowd for Dulcie, Kyson frowned when he couldnt spot her.

Just then, his phone buzzed with a message from her.

Im waiting in the car.

My ankles acting up. Reading the message, Kysons features softened.

He promptly excused himself and left the banquet hall.

In the car, he gently asked, What happened to your ankle? Dulcie set aside her discomfort and replied calmly, Im not used to high heels.

They gave me blisters, but its nothing serious.

Ive taken care of it.

Hmm, Kyson said no more, his attention fixed on the road, oblivious to any change in her demeanor as they drove away.

The following day, despite her injured ankle causing a slight limp, Dulcie went about her usual tasks and promptly sent the revised proposal to Kourtney.

On her way to the break room, she encountered Audrey and her clique.

Bryanna blocked her path, a sneer on her face.
