Lucille stopped and looked at him.

These people were really strange. When she was still Cedrick’s wife, they criticized her every day, wishing for her to get a divorce. Now that she was divorced, why were they all crowding around her?

“Lucille…” Alex Guerra said, “I know you hate us. We were really disrespectful to you in the past and said a lot of things we shouldn’t have behind your back. But that was all our fault. Cedrick never said anything. Don’t blame Cedrick…”

So, Alex thought she divorced Cedrick because of them?

Alex sighed again. “I know you don’t like Mari. It’s true that Mari was Cedrick’s first love, but they broke up ages ago. Now they’re just friends, really. I can vouch for that. We always hang out as a group. I saw that photo on the trending topics list. I was there that day, and so was Harlan. It wasn’t just Cedrick and Mari alone. They didn’t do anything!”

“Are you done?”

Lucille asked him calmly.

“Lucille, Cedrick really doesn’t have any other intentions. He’s told us more than once that he wants to spend the rest of his life with you…”

Lucille didn’t listen anymore and walked away.

She was tired of hearing that sentence.

Who would want such a rotten life?

Her brother had sent a driver to pick her up. As she left the building, she saw the car waiting in a parking spot by the road.

Get in the car, go home, not wanting to stay a moment longer!

Her brother had asked her to invite them, saying there was a happy occasion at home and it should be lively…

Fine, who said only marriage is a happy occasion?

Divorce is too.

Her brother had ordered her a three–tiered cake with one candle lit. On the cake, it said: Congratulations, Lucille, on a brand new start.

As she walked in, she saw them joyfully pushing the cake towards her amidst the music.

Lucille even smiled, “I thought you were going to sing ‘Happy Birthday“.”

“That’s not out of the question.”

Her brother helped their grandmother down the stairs.

Grandma’s face had filled out a bit compared to a few days ago, but this ordeal had taken a huge toll on her. It wasn’t something she could recover from in a short time. Although she was very weak, her gaze at Lucille was kind and gentle.

It was a very pleasant evening.

Although it was just a family dinner, it was much warmer than the formal banquets in the business world.

Her brother had prepared delicious food for her. After dinner, she sat on the living room sofa next to her grandmother, with her friends gathered around.

They chatted together, talking about all sorts of topics.

Although her four friends didn’t know each other originally, they quickly became familiar and hit it off.
