The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 883

A glimmer of delight flashed in Simone's eyes. "Big brother, you're finally done with work?"

Leonard's voice was deep and low. "Yeah. Those old men in the family, clinging to power just because of their age, always scheming to keep control. They never stop to consider whether they're actually up to the task."

Leonard's tone shifted. "Marry him? Simone, how do you even know him? Are you sure he's really the head of the Gardner family?"

Simone nodded. "I don't think I'm mistaken."
