Chapter 187 Fix it

Penulis: Ela Osaretin
"Just tell me what I did wrong," Lorraine said, her voice trembling. "Whatever it is, I'll fix it. I'll do anything if it means you'll stop looking at me like this." Lorraine reached for his arm, desperate, but Desmond stepped aside, avoiding her touch without hesitation.

“No matter what you do," he said coldly, "you'll still be the same…annoying and unbearable."

His words were sharp and unyielding, cutting through Lorraine like ice. Tears streamed down her cheeks, her heart aching with humiliat

  • My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can   Chapter 371 Across his knuckles

    Capture Lucas’ attention? Impossible!Lucas would never take Amelia onto the dance floor.Damian’s stare locked onto Amelia, his grip on the wine glass tightening until the skin across his knuckles blanched.The crowd's expressions were a blend of longing, malice, and covetousness. Several high-society women shared Eve’s sentiment. They imagined Lucas had shifted his preferences, now seeking female company, which allowed those two daring women to claim their moment.Convinced that Lucas had agreed to dance with her, Lorraine felt a rush of elation, nearly breaking into an unrestrained grin beneath the silver mask.If she secured Lucas’ interest, what weight would Desmond carry? In heritage, looks, physique, and business acumen, Lucas was unmatched.Lorraine let her mind drift to her imaginary future life. With Lucas enchanted by her, she wouldn't need to tolerate Xavier’s disapproval or pursue the aloof Desmond. She could crush anyone who dared treat her with disdain, as if grinding a

  • My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can   Chapter 370 Any sort

    Sophia feigned surprise. "Isn't that Amelia? Could it be she's trying to invite Mr. Sullivan to dance? How could she be so bold? Doesn't she know Mr. Sullivan despises women who dare to covet any sort of contact with him?"Feigning anxiety, Sophia lightly tugged at Damian sleeve. "Damian, what should we do? If Amelia keeps this up, Mr. Sullivan will have her thrown out."Damian’s irritation flared, her voice, usually sweet and coy, now grated on his ears like a harsh scrape.“Ha!" Eve sneered. "If she gets thrown out, all the better, let's see how she dares to force her way into high society after that disgrace. Everyone knows Mr. Sullivan loathes physical contact, if she insists on courting ruin, she has no one to blame but herself."Damian’s brows drew together as he chided in a low voice, "Eve, don't talk nonsense."“I didn't say anything wrong!" Eve snapped back immediately. She suppressed her temper and leaned in, lowering her voice to a conspiratorial whisper. "Wouldn't it be sat

  • My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can   Chapter 369 Public humiliation

    “You will invite Mr. Sullivan to dance," Lorraine replied. "If he turns you down, you must leave the banquet immediately. But if he accepts, I'll be the one to leave."Inwardly, Lorraine was smirking. She had secured the safer, passive seat of this wager, while Amelia would have to risk walking alone into the jaws of public humiliation.Given Lucas’ cool, untouchable air, Lorraine believed there wasn't the faintest chance Amelia could win. Until now, not a single woman had coaxed Lucas onto the dance floor; every attempt had met with polite dismissal. Even Vickie, practically raised by the Sullivan family, had failed. To this day, no one had ever seen Lucas dance with anyone.“No," Amelia answered, her lips curving faintly, "Not unless you come with me. Whoever succeeds wins. But if neither of us manages it, I'll admit defeat."Lorraine hesitated, the thought of joining Amelia clearly distasteful. Yet, if she refused, Amelia wouldn't agree to the challenge. After a brief inner debate,

  • My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can   Chapter 368 Competing in

    “You silly woman!" Desmond ground out each word, his voice tight with frustration.Before he could recover, Lucas’ hands pressed even harder, forcing another grimace out of him.“That's it! No more massaging!" Desmond tried to jerk his arm back. "I'm going to find Margot, she's probably missing me." In truth, he hadn't seen Margot since arriving at the Sullivan estate. She was the perfect excuse to escape Lucas’ grip.“Yes, that's enough," Amelia said, her tone soft. "He's going to see Margot. Let's not keep him."Lucas let go without protest, but not without that faintly disdainful look that made Desmond’s blood boil.Gritting his teeth, Desmond jabbed a finger at Lucas. "I'll go see Margot first, and then I'll settle this with you later."Desmond resolved that once he saw Margot, he'd make sure she heard his side of the story.He turned to Amelia. "I'll find you later." With that, he strode off.Watching his retreat, Amelia chuckled. "He's really like a kid. It's nice to have so much

  • My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can   Chapter 367 Not a big deal

    "Not a big deal, just scraped my hand a bit." Trying to play it cool, Desmond lifted his hand, showing off the reddened knuckles.“Why'd you get into a fight?" Amelia frowned, her gaze fixed on his hand. "Did someone insult you?" She knew Desmond wasn't the type to start anything, so someone must've provoked him first.“Yeah." Desmond nodded. He didn't want her to know that the young man had badmouthed her. No point in making her upset over idiots like that.“Good for you. If someone's running their mouth, punch 'em. As long as you win, nothing else matters." Amelia gave him a light shove from behind. "Come on, let me put some ointment on your hand."Desmond, grinning like a fool, was caught off guard and nearly stumbled. "Ah! You brute! Why are you pushing me? Couldn't you just hold my hand?”“Shut it. I'm taking you to treat your hand."“Even if you are, why push me? Can't you be a little gentler?" he muttered, dramatically. "Heartless woman… If I help you again, I'll be a damn fool.

  • My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can   Chapter 366 Flattering smile

    Seeing Lucas seemingly disregard Amelia and ask for his name instead, the young man lit up inside.Lucas was going to take his side! Ha! Amelia and Desmond were finished.Suppressing his glee, he offered a toothy, flattering smile. "I'm Derrick Ortiz, the heir to the Ortiz Group."“When you called Miss Brown ‘used goods', do you have anything to back that claim?" Lucas’ eyes darkened, dangerous and razor-sharp.Derrick didn't hesitate. "Of course! She's a used-up ex-wife from the Wright family, and she's got some sugar daddy on the side. She clearly gets around, before and after marriage. Why else would the Wright cast her aside? One glance at her and you can tell, she oozes promiscuity. I've seen her type before, always flirting and seeking attention from men everywhere. She definitely showed up just to catch someone's eye." Pausing, he added, "No way she got invited on merit. Must've had her sugar daddy pull some strings. Honestly, which tasteless sap would want a woman like that, le

  • My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can   Chapter 85 Her advise

    Amelia’s words hit Becca like a wake up call.Becca exhaled. At her age, if divorce had been an option, she'd have taken it years ago. She knew she couldn't control her husband's wandering heart. But Amelia was right, she could damn well control the purse strings. For herself. And for her children.

    The faint scent of wine lingered on her breath, mixing with her natural fragrance into something delicate, intoxicating.Maybe it was the wine on her breath, or maybe something more, but Lucas felt lightheaded, his breathing unsteady. Her skin glowed under the light, and up close, every feature of h

    "Unreal! She's pushing the car to its limits and still holding it together. Come on, don't let me down, I put everything on you, girl!"“You fools keep yelling. Wait until the next curve, she's going to crash and burn at that speed. Just watch. It'll be over in seconds."Wild cheering from those who

    “Amelia, I know you care about Mr. Wright’s well-being," Sophia interjected gently, her words calculated to smear Amelia’s reputation. "But you're not related by blood. Isn't it a bit much to forbid his grandchildren from visiting him?”“Look at her…just another greedy outsider trying to grab the Wr
