Too Good for You: The Ex-Wife You Lost novel Chapter 97

Lola hurriedly explained, "Zayne said these are the toys Noelle gave him. Seeing them reminds him of her, so he asked me to help get rid of them. Did you accidentally trip, Mr. Fuller?" she asked.

Of course, Lola could tell that Clifford had been beaten up.

But men all had their pride. If she pointed it out, Clifford would only get furious.

As expected, Clifford frowned slightly in response. He didn't press about the toys and covered his face instead. "I rolled down the hill," he muttered.

Lola's expression twisted with heartache. "How could you be so careless, Mr. Fuller? You look badly hurt. Let me tend to your injuries right away."

She went to fetch the first-aid kit, her voice sweet and gentle as she helped Clifford sit. "You're the company's president and Zayne's father. Your well-being matters more than anything else."

Her tender, caring tone instantly restored the pride that Clifford had lost earlier in front of Noelle.

Recalling all the effort Lola put into taking care of Zayne and securing sponsors for the racing team on her own accord, his heart stirred. "It's been tough on you lately."

Lola lowered her head, smiling faintly. "For you, this is nothing."

Clifford lost all self-control, and his thoughts ran wild immediately. He cupped her face and kissed her. Lola moaned softly in his embrace, half-resisting, half-yielding. That night, they made love.

She hadn't forgotten her plan of having Clifford's child.

…

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when Noelle returned safely to the training camp.

The Flame Speed Racing team members were the happiest.

After all, Noelle was an exceptional leader, truly suited for the role. With her around, everyone felt like they had a reliable anchor.

But when Hunter's resignation notice was announced, everyone couldn't help but feel it was a shame.

In his resignation notice, he made it clear that he was single, with neither a girlfriend nor a wife.

He also emphasized that his personal relationships were private matters and shouldn't be discussed publicly. He hoped that the intensive training camp could put an end to the culture of gossip and spreading rumors, so that no more innocent people would be hurt in the future.

Reading the notice, everyone felt a pang of sadness in their hearts.

"Coach Haberkorn is so competent. He shouldn't be leaving." Jenna looked a little reluctant to see Hunter go. "It's all Hazel's fault for spreading rumors and stirring trouble. Now, Coach Haberkorn won't be able to lead our team anymore."

Alexis nodded in agreement. Honestly, even if Noelle and Hunter got together, they wouldn't have minded.

Both were highly skilled professionals, a perfect match in talent and looks.

She glanced at Noelle behind her. On the surface, she looked calm. But no one could tell what she was truly thinking.
