His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 498 No One Could Stop Him

Lysander let out a deep sigh. “You may use the money first.”

“So, you’re really going to have a child for him?”

“He’s gone mad, not me,” Lysander said. “So Daphne, you need to pull yourself together, stand tall, make a lot of money. Then we can pay him back, with interest, in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Daphne couldn’t help but laugh. “Forget it,” she said. “I’ve given it a try recently and I’ve realized that I’m simply not cut out for business. Even my dad has given up on me.”

“So, are you really not going to continue with your family business?”

“Of course, why wouldn’t I? It represents my parents‘ lifelong dedication after all,” Daphne said. “Lysander, I think my dad might be right. If I can’t do it myself, then I’ll find someone who can.”

“I didn’t quite catch that. Are you planning to hire someone?”

“What I’m saying is, I want to get married.”

Astonished, Lysander asked, “Are you also planning to marry into a wealthy second–generation family?”

“Ha, these second–generation folks in our circle, they’re either playboys like Aiden, or they’re just average, not even as good as me. Trustworthy? None of them are. Oh right, if there’s anyone reliable, it’s Adrian. But his heart isn’t in this, and he’s completely smitten with you.”

When it came to Adrian, it was challenging for Lysander to describe the feelings in her heart at that time.

Guilt, sadness, or perhaps, regret.

Had she initially met Adrian first, and it was he she had married, perhaps they truly would have been a simple yet loving couple.

It wasn’t exactly love, but at the very least, there was no betrayal.

Love, it was the most luxurious indulgence in the world.

“So, what’s your plan? Going on a blind date?”
