Chapter 77 He Does Not Simply Like You 

Aracely also recognized Cecilia‘s voice. Aracely dragged her chair to Anaya‘s side and whispered. 

“Mrs. Maltz doesn‘t like Lexie? 

“I thought that old woman was only mean to you. It seems I was wrong. She doesn‘t like any girl 

her son is with.” 

Anaya poured a cup of coffee for Aracely. “Drink some coffee. Don‘t gossip.” 

The room next door was quiet for a while before Lexie‘s voice sounded. “Mrs. Maltz, I approached Joshua not for money.” 

“Not for money? Cecilia chuckled and slowly put down her cup, saying condescendingly, “Lexie, 

cut the act. I‘ve seen a lot of women like you. 

“You said that because you don‘t think I can give you much money. You think that no matter how much I give you, you will get a lot more when you marry Joshua, right?” 

Cecilia had recently set Joshua up with a rich young lady and had arranged a time to meet with her parents. Cecilia wanted Joshua and the young lady to meet and get to know each other. 

When Cecilia found out that Joshua and Lexie had rekindled their relationship yesterday. Cecilia immediately talked to Joshua about it and asked him to break up with Lexie. 

Lexie had had an affair with Joshua before he had divorced, so everyone had thought she had 

been the other woman. 

If Joshua married Lexie, it would be confirmed that Joshua had an extramarital affair with her which would bring disgrace to the Maltz family. 

However, Joshua didn‘t listen to Cecilia and insisted on being with Lexie. 

Cecilia had failed to change Joshua‘s mind, so she had asked Lexie to meet and tried to force her to leave Joshua 

“You have really misunderstood me.” Lexie felt a little wronged, and her voice carried a sobbing 

tone as if she had been bullied, “I was already together with Joshua when we were in university. If 

it weren‘t for the sake of the family interests, Joshua wouldn‘t have let me go 

“Now that the Maltz family is on the right track and Joshua and I are in love with each other, why
