Chapter 140

"Ah, oh dear."

Miranda nodded along, but something didn't quite sit right with her. "Wait, aren't you getting divorced? Why do you care about Lysander's brother?"

Mila casually replied, "His situation is a bit unique. I'll explain later."

Eugene had just finished setting up the fireworks and was walking over.

Miranda was the kind of person who could forget everything once she started having fun.

The trio eagerly lit the fireworks one by one, as brilliant bursts of color illuminated the night sky, creating an indescribable beauty.

At the midpoint of their celebration, they even set up a spit roast.

Mila and Miranda were busy lighting fireworks while watching the dazzling display. They occasionally accepted pieces of roasted lamb that Eugene handed over.

Eating, drinking, and singing, they had a night full of joy and laughter.

The sky was filled with fireworks, washing away countless past burdens and welcoming new beginnings with a radiant glow.

Laughter echoed through the night.
