บททั้งหมดของ My Horrible Ex-Husband Can't Move On, But I Can: บทที่ 351 - บทที่ 360

Howard swept his eyes over his grandchildren and Sophia with a chilly stare, curling his lips in contempt. "Amelia is no outsider, and I was simply showing preference, not intentionally humiliating anyone. You're the ones assigning blame, accusing me of trying to degrade Sophia. What's next? You want me to pretend to like someone I clearly don't? If that's the rule, why don't you ever show Amelia the same courtesy?" Pausing for breath, Howard added, "Funny how you all excuse your own behavior but nitpick everyone else's. If you can't meet your own standards, stop demanding them from others."Eve fumed in silence. Her grandfather was being ridiculous, backing someone who wasn't even family. And now the Wright estate had already been handed to Amelia, which made her blood boil even more.With that thought, Eve turned her glare on Amelia, her eyes filled with fury. She couldn't understand how Amelia had convinced Howard to part with the Wright estate. But whatever trick it was, she had to

Lucas’ gaze dropped slightly, hiding the flicker of disappointment behind his lashes.“Alright." He'd braced himself for rejection, but it still hit harder than he'd expected.In the corner, the two girls exchanged stunned looks, momentarily speechless.Lucas had just been turned down. It made sense, of course, but watching his hope dissolve like that left them feeling a little sorry for him. Getting shut down right after mustering the courage had to sting.Amelia had intended to walk away, but when she noticed the faint shadow darkening Lucas’ expression, her brows furrowed slightly. Was he truly disheartened because she hadn't agreed to be his date? Could her refusal have affected him so deeply?Still, Amelia found herself explaining, "I never said I wouldn't go. I'm just not sure what my schedule looks like next month. If I happen to be free, I might come."In reality, she had no intention of attending Margot's birthday celebration. She didn't belong to the Sullivan family's circle.

"Miss Wright took your pink diamond earrings," Aylin declared, stepping forward to inspect Eve’s bag.“Fuck off!" Martha cried out in panic, shoving Aylin aside without hesitation.“My daughter would never steal!"“That’s right. Eve may be a little mischievous at times, but she'd never stoop to stealing," Sophia chimed in softly.Amelia turned to Sophia with a cool, unyielding gaze. "Whether she did it or not, we'll know once her bag is searched."“No! You can't search my bag! On what grounds do you have to search it?" Eve clung desperately to her bag, refusing to let anyone near. The pink diamond earrings were hidden inside, and if they were found, she'd be done for. Worse still, if the school found out, she'd be expelled on the spot. Her reputation would be ruined.Aylin looked toward Amelia, unsure of how to proceed.“If you're so against us searching the bag, fine," Amelia said coldly. "Then I'll involve the police. And if they find out you stole my pink diamond earrings, you'll be

From the other end came a soft chuckle.“Is Pascal there too? He really knows what I like. Just hearing that made me crave your cooking, it's honestly so good."At her light, happy tone, Lucas relaxed. As long as she wasn't upset. "Then I'll cook tonight. I've got a bit of time right now," he said casually.“Really? That's amazing. I get to feast again! You're seriously unreal, handsome and an amazing cook? Guys like you don't exist anymore." She hesitated for a second and then added a little awkwardly, "But will it be too much trouble for you?"“Not at all. I actually like cooking," Lucas replied, a small smile playing on his lips. As long as she liked it, he'd do it forever. Even the most mundane tasks became enjoyable when they were for the one he loved.Watching her eat his food with that bright smile, it was a reward in itself.“Then I'll get the ingredients ready and wait for you to return," Amelia said, excitement in her voice.With a smile full of quiet contentment, Lucas repli

Time zipped by, and before they knew it, the day of Margot's birthday banquet arrived.Everyone attending was someone worth knowing.As soon as Eve stepped out of the car, she raised her chin high, like she was royalty making her grand entrance.She swept her gaze over the male attendees, mostly the young, eligible bachelors of Critport, a smile playing on her lips that deepened with every glance. If she could snag a decent husband tonight, the whole trip would be worth it.Hooking her arm through Sophia’s, Eve pulled out her phone. "Sophia, let's snap some pictures and post them online to make Amelia burn with envy. Even if she owns that painting now, it doesn't mean she's good enough to get invited to Margot's birthday banquet."Eve, practically glowing with pride, pulled out her phone and struck a confident pose, snapping a few selfies with Sophia by her side.Eve scrolled through the images with delight, her eyes gleaming as she laughed softly. "Sophia, I've got to say, I'm proud t
