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

Kyson didnt actually catch a glimpse of the star itself, but the joy lighting up Gwens face was infectious.

He didnt want to be a bummer.

Gwen, why dont you and your grandmother move out of the village? I could help you find a stable job here.

Gwens smile faltered slightly as she replied, I know you mean well, but my grandmother is too old to take the long journey.

Shes lived here most of her life, and I doubt shed want to leave now.

But thank you for the offer.

Seeing Gwen decline, Kyson didnt press the issue.

After a moment of silence, Gwen hesitated before asking, Arent you with your wife? Wont she mind us chatting like this? At that moment, Gwens thoughtfulness stood in stark contrast to Dulcies stubbornness.noveldrama

Kyson felt a prick of annoyance and replied bitterly, She wouldnt care about me.

Gwen was secretly delighted to see Kyson like this, but she masked her feelings with a concerned expression. Did you two have a fight? Is she upset because of me? If thats the case, maybe we should stop interacting with each other.

Id hate to be the reason for your quarrel.

Its nothing to do with you, dont worry.

Kyson brushed it off quickly, not wanting to open that door.

He shifted the tone, keeping things light and easy.

It wasnt until Gwen shivered and wrapped her arms tightly around herself that Kyson finally decided to end the video call.

Its getting chilly out here.

Youd better head inside before you catch a cold.

Gwen exhaled a breath that fogged in the cold air and nodded.

Alright, Ill head in.

We can chat via messages.

After she returned to her room, Gwen and Kyson continued their conversation long into the night until sleep finally overtook them.

The next morning, Kyson dragged himself downstairs, dark circles visible under his eyes.

At the foot of the stairs, he bumped into Sally, who had just come in from her early run.

Sallys eyes narrowed as she took in his exhausted face.

Kyson, where were you last night? Did you pull an all-nighter? I had some work to finish.

Didnt get to bed until late, Kyson said, sidestepping her question.

Dont forget to grab some breakfast.

Before Sally could respond, he was already on his way out.

Sally stood there, biting her lip. She had wanted to ask him about Dulcie, but Kyson had vanished before she got the chance.

Strange… Dulcies been gone for ages.

Doesnt he care at all? Sally muttered under her breath.

She knew Dulcie was with Lucinda, but Kysons apparent indifference baffled her.

Something wasnt right.

Ever since he declined her offer of help in preparing a candlelit dinner for the two of them, there had been an odd distance between Kyson and Dulcie.

Sally just couldnt put her finger on it.

With a sigh, she reminded herself to focus on her own matters.

She had bigger things to worry about.

Sally had recently signed up for a jewelry management course abroad and was preparing to leave Cadiered.
