Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 320

“Is it because of Lucinda? Do you like her?”

Jennifer’s knuckles turned white from gripping the bed sheet too hard.

She was afraid that Hilliard would give her an affirmative answer, but she still held onto hope.

Unfortunately, Hilliard didn’t say anything.

He simply shook off of her hand, and left without looking back.

Outside the door, Presley and Lucinda were chatting idly on the sofa.

They were startled when they saw the scary expression on Hilliard’s face as he walked out of the room.

Presley stood up and asked nervously, “Mr.

Simmons? Er, what’s wrong?”

Ignoring her, Hilliard looked straight at Lucinda and said in a low voice, “You knew she was only pretending to be sick.

”

Lucinda gulped.

Was Hilliard really angry at her?

It was the first time that he had ever treated Lucinda like this.

She averted her gaze guiltily and stammered, You see…”

Without giving Lucinda the chance to explain, Hilliard walked right past her and left.

Lucinda had half a mind to catch up to Hilliard, but Presley stopped her and pulled her into the room to check on Jennifer.

Jennifer’s eyes were red and puffy.

It seemed that she had just cried and was in a bad mood.

Presley threw her arms around her daughter and said sadly, “I told you, Jennifer.

Hilliard is a cold man.

But you insisted on doing that.

Now you only got hurt.

Jennifer bit her lip and didn’t say anything, staring into space blankly.

Presley knew that her daughter was too stubborn and wouldn’t change her mind, so she turned to Lucinda for help.

“Lucinda, please help Jennifer.

You have to replace a way to make him stay in Forden!”

Lucinda shook her head gravely.

“It won’t work.

Hilliard’s a man of principle.

If he doesn’t like someone, then no one can change his mind.

”

Perhaps this was too harsh on Jennifer, but Lucinda had no choice but to be honest.

It was better to break it to Jennifer now than to let her hope for something she couldn’t have.

Presley sighed in disappointment.

Seeing such a sad scene and knowing that she indeed couldn’t help, Lucinda turned to leave.
