Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband?

Chapter 31

Before long, the car smoothly rolled into Montgomery Manor.

The grand wrought-iron gates swung open to reveal an evergreen oasis within the estate, defying the chill of winter with its lush greenery. A small bridge arched over a gently flowing stream, evoking a sense of timeless elegance.

The vehicle drove straight through the courtyard, pulling up to the main house where warmth spilled out of the entrance.

As soon as the car stopped, Conrad Montgomery, the family patriarch, approached with a sense of urgency. He first drew Felicity close, touching her face to ensure it was warm before he relaxed. His gaze then shifted to Mila as she stepped out of the car, his demeanor turning cold and formal.

Among the Montgomery family, only her mother-in-law truly liked Mila.

Both Lysander, her husband, and his father, Conrad, harbored a distinct dislike for her, although Conrad's was tempered by his wife's fondness for Mila.

Mila greeted him quietly, "Hello, Dad."

Conrad responded with a curt nod before taking Felicity's hand and leading her inside. Mila followed them silently.
