Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband?

Chapter 50

Rosalind and Felicity had been friends for years. It was during one of their playful afternoons that they casually arranged the childhood engagement between Lysander and Giselle.

Although the engagement eventually fell through, their friendship remained intact.

The two families continued to interact frequently.

Over the years, Rosalind had cared for Lysander as if he were her own child. As she spoke, hesitation flickered across Lysander's face.

Giselle entered then, gently taking his hand and softly murmuring, "Lysander." He turned to look at her, his expression softening, and simply said, "Alright."

Witnessing their sweet, silent exchange, Rosalind gave Charles a gentle nudge. They both smiled and quietly left the room, leaving the young couple alone in the living room.
