For some reason, Adrian could sense that Vivienne wasn’t in great condition. It seemed like she had been up all night, thinking too much, and now it was clearly affecting her. Even though her tired eyes sparkled with a smile, Adrian still didn’t fail to notice her weariness.

“You need a lot of rest. You seem to have been pressuring yourself lately, and you haven’t been sleeping well,” Adrian said. Using his medical intuition, he could easily tell her condition. Although his Kareth ability helped him see through the body like an x-ray, Adrian was naturally sharp and skilled in the medical line even without it.

Vivienne gave a light giggle. “You’re right. I’ve been up all night, thinking about you, wondering if you’d ever come to find me,” she said in a playful tone, her smile glittering like diamonds.

“Okay, you’re good at flirting,” Adrian admitted with a soft smile.

He walked closer and held her gently as they both headed back toward Emily’s house.

Just as they arrived, the first to

  • The Underestimated Ex   Chapter 282

    Lyra was stunned and amused by the words she’s hearing just now, and what’s more funny is that the person telling her this is her mother — the daughter of the person she’s talking about. She just can’t believe that her mother was actually talking about her own mother. This felt unreal to her, and also the fact that she just asked her if she thinks grandma actually cared about her. Just what’s she saying? Lyra thought. “What do you mean?” Lyra was forced to ask because she’s unsure what she meant by the words she’s saying, and maybe if she explained it it’d make more sense to her. Because her grandma truly loved and cared about her, and in fact that only explained why she could trust her company entirely in her hands and not in her own direct children that were supposed to be the ones she trusted the most. But somehow she trusted her more. And her actual question would have been how and why did grandma love h

  • The Underestimated Ex   Chapter 281

    The most important part that Lyra was feeling the most was the memory of how caring and clingy Adrian got sometimes, and it was something she couldn’t deny that she missed. But now she wasn’t sure whether to blame herself or her mother, or maybe she was supposed to blame her grandmother who insisted that she must marry a man. If she hadn’t listened to that, she wouldn’t have been with Adrian in the first place, and now him not being in her life made her feel like something was missing. She just didn’t understand why or what these feelings really meant. “Lyra, are you okay?” a familiar voice called out, snapping her out of her thoughts. Her mother stood in front of her. “What’s wrong?” Nola asked. In truth, Lyra had always had many questions to ask her mother—at least to know the truth of the whole matter and understand why things were the way they were. But she had never really

  • The Underestimated Ex   Chapter 280

    In truth Lyra thought that maybe she just didn’t have to divorce Adrian anyways. Somehow she can see it that the young man was kind of a goodluck. Because apart from the day Adrian had said to her that the people who told her that she’s not capable would call her to sign the contract, she at first saw his words as nothing but some comforting speech and she never expected things to go as he’s said to her and this made her just feel like Adrian was her luck because it didn’t just happens once but some couple of times that it feels just like heaven had blessed her with this kind of man. And one day as her mother had called her for a discussion. “Lyra, it’s time to kick that jerk good for nothing out of this family. After all he’s typically useless to us anyways.” Her mother said, oblivious to the look on Lyra’s face. “Mother, don’t you think it’s a bit cruel to just deceive someone and then throw them

  • The Underestimated Ex   Chapter 279

    Lyra finally had no choice but to agree to the marriage anyways. Or maybe she only deceived her grandma about it because her mother had realized that Lyra wasn’t ready to consider this at all. “Why should I get married to a man? Tell me why after all they did to you. After my father bullied and beat you up all the time and cursed you as if you’re his problem.” Lyra started to cry out her eyes as she faced her mother who’s pleading her into considering the marriage with this stranger that her grandma had arranged for her. “I know. I understand your worries, my daughter. And I am not trying to force you into one, all you need to do is a wedding with the man. You don’t have to trust him anyways and after you’ve got what you need you can divorce him then.” Nola started to tell her the plan on how to use Adrian as a pawn in their little game. “Look at it like this, one to fulfil your grandma’s wish and also to ge

    “So, how did it go? Did you two get along?” Mrs. Lane asked as she smiled brightly as though she were expecting good news. It was already a day after the blind date as Lyra went to visit her grandma again at the hospital. But Lyra’s expression said it all already, and she sighed just before she started to explain. She already knew that for some reason Lyra had found the young man unattractive. “Even if you wanted me to consider a man at all, why would you arrange some random poor beggar for me? I really hate you. Argh.” Lyra said with a shrugged expression as she was obviously disappointed and frustrated about the situation. But something felt a bit off this time. Usually, when she said the words to her grandma, she’d laugh and reply with a joke, as they both understood that the words they used were mostly jokes and nothing serious. But for some reason, her grandma was not responding.

  • The Underestimated Ex   Chapter 276

    A few days ago, Lya sat alone in the parlor, just staring blankly at the chandelier hanging from the ceiling as if she wanted to inhale the refreshing air that blew around her. Her mind was unsettled as she kept looking up at the ceiling, and then a string of tears started to form in her eyes. “What the hell is wrong with me?” Lyra muttered to herself as she laughed a nervous laugh meant to hide her reasons for tearing up at that moment. She just couldn’t help it sometimes. She would always end up thinking about it over and over again, as though her memories would never let her forget already. It had been four years now since the day Lyra met Adrian for the first time. They didn’t know each other yet when she stepped out of her car that day after being summoned by her grandmother, who had become a bit obsessive while standing at the verge of death. Lyra couldn’t complain, though—after all, it was the least s
