The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 48 Mommy, You Lied to Me

The atmosphere was already strange in the first place as Simon and Lunabelle sat on the couch in the living room, but it got worse after Amanda’s return.

Some time must have passed before Lunabelle started, “You have a beautiful wife, and your son is adorable. But he doesn’t really look like you, does he?”

“It’s probably because boys usually take after their mothers.

Lunabelle nodded with a somewhat bitter smile hanging on her lips. “I’m glad to see you living a happy life.”

“How long will you be here for?”

When Lunabelle suddenly got married without warning years ago, Simon was left to suffer for a long time. However, that didn’t change anything. This was the woman who had hurt him deeply.

“I’m not planning to leave the country this time. I had a divorce,” she calmly told him as though she was talking about the weather.

Simon was somewhat shocked. They had a divorce? Was it not a happy marriage?

Lunabelle then took a glance at the time before she stood up. “It’s getting late. I should go now. You probably have to spend the night with your wife, so I will be out of your hair.”

Simon swiftly stood up as well. “I’ll see you off,” he offered.

“It’s alright. I came by car. You should go be with your wife. Women are rather sensitive. Don’t let her get suspicious.” After Lunabelle said that, she turned and left.

Simon didn’t go after her. After all, they were only friends now.

Amanda was still on the terrace when she looked at the time and noted that some time had passed. Simon and Lunabelle must have left.

As the night wind blew, she couldn’t help but rub her arms because of the chill.

She turned around to go back then when she unexpectedly saw Simon walking toward her.
