The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 605 A Brush Of Fingertips.

It had been quite some time since the dining hall in the Thorne manor had accommodated such a large crowd. Today, the place had been spruced up in accordance with the standards befitting esteemed guests to welcome Maverick and his family. Even the tableware used was the porcelain collection of Howard.

Naturally, the five elders were seated together. Lysander had been continuously taking care of Michelle, so naturally, the two sisters were seated together.

Josiah was quite aware of the situation, so he settled down beside his mother.

Upon witnessing this scene, Susan could clearly understand her son’s intention. Yet, all she could do wast let out a soft sigh.

Now he regrets his past behavior

The dishes were served swiftly, their vibrant colors, enticing aroma, and delicious flavors were a given. The ingredients were notably nourishing, clearly tailored for the two individuals who had just been discharged from the hospital.

Apart from fruit juice, Howard had also brought out a special collection of red wine. Laura didn’t drink, so he personally poured a glass for Maverick. Afterward, he toasted and took the first sip himself.

For someone who didn’t usually drink, this gesture was undoubtedly significant.

“Maverick, Laura, Lysa’s success today is all thanks to your nurturing. I regret that I haven’t done much for her in the past, and now I’m even pulling her down with the company issues. I am truly sorry. However, the fact that our families could be discharged from the hospital together seems like a stroke of fate. Therefore, despite feeling a bit thick–skinned, I’d like to revisit the old topic.”

Molly’s recovery was going well. Apart from speaking a little softer, she looked no different from anyone else. Therefore, she also took the opportunity to express her stance with her husband towards Maverick and Laura.

“I was unable to attend the last conversation due to health reasons, but I’m aware of the details. What Maverick said was reasonable; we truly owe Lysa a lot, so everything she deserves is right here. As for the concerns you have, it will never happen again.”

She and her husband had prepared the property notarization documents in advance. They presented these documents at that moment, solely to assure Maverick that he could let them acknowledge Lysander.
