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

She was confident that once Dulcie determined her true ambitions, her life would start to align seamlessly.

Lucinda was now playing the part of a wise mentor, keen on cheering Dulcie up.

As Dulcie absorbed Lucindas words, she felt her hope rekindling.

Yet, the sudden ring of Dulcies phone shattered the moment.

It was Kyson again.

Her burgeoning optimism swiftly faded.

She was sure he called again just to hear Lucindas voice. Lucinda noticed the change in Dulcies demeanor, eyed the intrusive phone, and answered it on Dulcies behalf.

Kyson, youre speaking to me, Lucinda.

Taken aback, Kyson stuttered, Oh, Lucinda, hows everything going in Medican? Lucindas patience waned.

She could see why Dulcie felt so agitated.

She ended the call, handed the phone back to Dulcie, and tried to lift the spirits.

Well grab lunch now, and then youll accompany me to the negotiations with Hollis later. Lucinda felt an urge to share her wisdom with Dulcie, feeling suddenly protective.

Staying strong made the fear of someone leaving her gradually disappear.

Dulcie offered a small smile and nodded her appreciation.

Thank you, Lucinda.

Ill try my best not to slow you down.

Following their meal, Lucinda assisted Dulcie in preparing, and together with Larry, they departed for their meeting with Hollis.

While heading there, an idea struck Dulcie.
