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

However, Dulcie masked her feelings to avoid alarming Lucinda, maintaining a cheerful demeanor as she said, Lucinda, I hope you dont mind my dropping in unannounced.

Not at all.

I wish youd visit more often.

The children absolutely love you.

Lucinda then turned to her children.

Colby, Destinee, why dont you go with Zenia to clean up? Mommy and your godmother have things to discuss.

Lucinda sensed that Dulcie had arrived for a significant conversation.

They ascended to the top floor where Lucinda selected a bottle of red wine, saying, This is one of Nathans favorite bottles.

Try it and see what you think. If Nathan held it in high regard, it was bound to be superb.

Feeling slightly flattered, Dulcie hesitated.

Lucinda, I dont really drink much.

Perhaps we should leave it sealed.

Lucinda, perceptive as ever, uncorked the bottle nonetheless and filled a glass, chuckling.

Are you making excuses now? Dulcie, did you forget we had drinks just last time? Oh right.

Last time, they had gathered at N&L Fairy Land for a bonfire party.

She had indeed shared a few drinks with Lucinda that evening.

With a touch to her head and an awkward chuckle, Dulcie attempted to steer the conversation elsewhere.

Lucinda, I cant express how grateful I am for all your help recently.

Were friends, Dulcie.

Theres no need for thanks.

If you consider me a true friend, lets skip the formalities.

Her thoughts drifting to Kyson, Lucinda inquired, Why so late? And wheres Kyson? As your boyfriend, shouldnt he be accompanying you? The smile on Dulcies face dimmed, and she shook her head with a sigh.

Lucinda, it looks like… we might break up soon.

What? Why? Lucindas surprise was evident.

Everything had seemed fine just a few days ago.

What could have changed so abruptly? Oh, its nothing, Lucinda. Im just making conversation.

Dulcie wasnt ready to open up about her issues with Kyson.noveldrama

After all, she was still employed by him.

The future seemed clouded with uncertainty.

Sensing Dulcies reluctance to discuss anything deeper, Lucinda chose not to press her.

Instead, she gently clinked her glass against Dulcies.

Just focus on being happy.

Thats whats truly important.

Spending time with Lucinda was always relaxed and straightforward.
