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

“Yes. Since you don’t live with your family anymore, I’d like you to stay with us for a week until your wound heals a bit more.” Luisa repeated, smiling broadly. “What do you say? Do you accept?”

Thalassa had gotten even more rigid now, her face expressionless but her disbelieving eyes were fixed on Luisa who seemed oblivious.

Her lips curled into a hard smile. “Why are you asking for my permission? The house belongs to Luisa too, so she can make any decision she wants. Excuse me, I have somewhere to be.”

With that, she turned and walked out of the room. Watching her leave, Kris’s expression fell, his hopes deflated. What had he expected? That she would jump for joy at the idea of him spending a week under the same roof?
