The CEO's Amazing Ex-Wife Is Back! by H. Dally

Chapter 70

“What the hell, Lassa? What is taking you so long? We’re going to be late,” Luisa whined as she burst into Thalassa’s room after knocking.

“Calm down, jeez. I’m almost done. Besides, it’s not nearly time,” Thalassa complained but couldn’t help the smile on her face, knowing Luisa was this impatient because she was a nervous wreck.

She ran the brush through her hair one last time and picked up her clutch, declaring, “There. I’m all done. Shall we go now, Miss Nervous Wreck?”

Luisa glared at her and rolled her eyes, causing Thalassa to chuckle as they finally made their way downstairs. Heading to the door, they opened it only to find Zeke on the porch, his hand raised as if he was about to ring the doorbell.

“Oh, hey. I was just coming to take you guys out for dinner, but I see you’re already going out,” he said.

Turning to Luisa to survey her hair and the dress she was wearing, he raised a brow. “Damn, sis. You’re looking gorgeous, but who is this for?”

Luisa blushed. “We’re just going out for dinner.”

“Oh great then. I’ll go with you.”

Thalassa and Luisa shared a glance before Luisa spoke. “No you can’t come with us.”

Zeke frowned. “Why not? You’re just going to dinner, right?”

“It’s not just any dinner, Zeke. Your sister is going on a date,” Thalassa clarified.

“It’s not a date,” Luisa quickly retorted. “We’re just going to hang out, and it’s not even a date or anything.”

“A date?” Zeke’s expression dropped. “Your boyfriend is in Baltimore?”

“No, it’s not Victor.”

Confusion marred Zeke’s forehead. “You’re going on a date with another guy? What about Victor?”
