Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon

Chapter 198

Lindy had just ushered Effie and Lyman out of the room.

Now, the two of them wandered down the hospital corridor, exchanging uncertain glances.

"What are they thinking, wanting us to flirt in a hospital?" Lyman said, half- laughing, half incredulous.

Effie could only shake her head. She found it a little awkward, too.

Effie actually didn't mind the alone time at all.

She turned to Lyman and said, "Honestly, this is kind of nice."

Lyman smiled. As long as Effie was happy, nothing else mattered to her.
