Dear Ex-wife Marry Me

Chapter 443

And Edith’s always on about it: “I think Carlene’s great; she’s got a knack for painting, and Eric talked to her today; is he getting feelings for her or what?” Since Carlene’s painting skills were really top–notch and she’s got a leg up on her peers, she’s the most likely candidate to become Herbert’s protégé.

So she busted through Edith’s bias about her background, and Edith gave her the green light to marry Eric.

Back when lan and Carlene got together, Edith blew her top, saying lan stole Eric’s woman and would get his comeuppance.

But then, when Eric had his mishap, Edith started grilling lan on how things were going with Carlene.

In that moment, lan didn’t feel cared for, but repulsed..

It was like Edith was trying to keep Carlene on reserve for Eric, hoping lan would take up the mantle.

So, even now, lan’s not too chummy with Edith.

At this moment, the table at Raymond Mansion was set with fancy dishes.

lan had just come back from a call outside, and there was an icy vibe to him.

Edith was a bit miffed. “I invited you to dinner; why the long face?”

There was something sharp in lan’s eyes.

Edith was instantly at a loss for words, then got testy.

“lan, you’re part of this family now; you can put away your big–shot attitude from the office. Grandpa Holden saw something in you and made you his heir, but you should know this was supposed to be Eric’s spot, if not for his mishap.
