Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon

Chapter 116

Luther paused, a bit confused. Why was Mr. Etheridge asking him that?

Was it possible Mr. Etheridge was having a change of heart, suddenly feeling guilty about all the late nights and lost weekends he'd demanded? Maybe he wanted to make it up to him-was this his way of offering some time off?

Luther quickly nodded. "Yes, I have a girlfriend. We've been together almost two years. Things are good."

Lyman gave a thoughtful nod. "So, tell me if you mess up and need to apologize, how should you do it?"

Now, this was a topic Luther knew well.

"You have to be sincere. Honestly, most women, when they're upset, just want more attention. So, it helps to give a little gift, or maybe plan a special date."

He glanced at Lyman, then spoke a bit more carefully.

He couldn't help but wonder-was Mr. Etheridge having relationship trouble? Was it because of that whole online scandal? As his right-hand man, Luther felt it was practically his duty to help solve all of Mr. Etheridge's problems.

Lyman's expression was distant, his thoughts clearly elsewhere.
