The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 272 He Can’t Get Over You

“That’s… A problem.” Amanda didn’t know what to do now. She didn’t want to get involved in Lunabelle’s and Simon’s mess.

Lunabelle sobbed. “I’m so sorry for visiting you out of the blue today. I don’t have many friends in this country. I wanted to vent to someone, but then I realized that I don’t have any friends,”

“It’s okay. I understand.” Amanda knew more than anyone what it felt like to be left alone, completely. helpless.

Lunabelle seemed to have cleared her mind after enjoying some time under the breeze. Then, she wiped her tears.

“What about you? Are you reconciling with your ex-husband?”

Amanda’s smile froze for a moment. I’m not sure about that. There doesn’t seem to be a need to reconcile. I can never be his type, or he wouldn’t be so cruel to me four years ago.

Also, Howard had just passed away, and Elias was swamped with company matters. Elias probably didn’t have the time to think about these things.

In reality, Lunabelle had ulterior motives for saying that. She felt that as long as Amanda hadn’t found a man of her own, Simon would never turn his focus back on her.

Lunabelle wasn’t as confident as she had been back then. In the past, she could confidently tell everyone that Simon would only marry her. Now that things had changed, she had lost that confidence as well.
