The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 452 Being Pampered Makes All The Difference

Sensing the silence on the other end of the line, Daphne didn’t want to make things difficult for her friend, She cautiously said, “If it’s inconvenient for you to go, I can always find another opportunity.”

“No,” Lysander quickly regained her composure. “I was just lost in thought.”

Daphine was sceptical. “Really?”

“Really,” Lysander revealed a bitter smile where she couldn’t see, her voice didn’t betray a hint of his true feelings. “But, do you have an invitation? Can you get me in?”

Only then did Daphne breathe a sigh of relief. “You don’t need to worry about anything. Just continue to rest at home. Once I’ve prepared everything and the invitations, I’ll come to get you!”

The birthday party was officially scheduled for Sunday evening.

By half past four in the afternoon, Daphne had already arrived by car at the foot of Lysander’s apartment building. She brought not only two invitations but also pre–coordinated outfits and jewellery.

Lysander couldn’t help but be taken aback. “It’s just a birthday party. Is there a need to dress up so dramatically?”

The situation seemed not as simple as she had initially thought.

Daphne let out a long sigh. “You’ll understand why when you get to the party. Tiffany’s birthday celebration has become more than just a simple birthday party. I can assure you, there are definitely others who have ulterior motives like me, and they are even more daring than I am.”

Considering Lysander’s injury, Daphne had specially prepared a high–collared dress for her. Surprisingly. it matched her temperament perfectly, making her look both elegant and dignified. As for the bruise on her wrist that had faded, it was easily concealed by a bracelet.

Lysander felt a bit out of place, and she couldn’t help but say, “Lab coat is more comfortable.”

“Not at all.” Daphne looked at her, feeling a spark of admiration. “You look incredibly professional right now, like a textbook example of an elite doctor. There’s no way investment bank managers won’t believe
