My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back

Chapter 72

Since giving birth to her children, Kimberly had rarely visited her company.

Olivia’s merger and acquisition case effectively resolved the patent and market entry issues.

As a result, her expertise was widely acknowledged by everyone in the company.

Originally, Kimberly intended to appoint her as the chief financial officer of Larson. Corporation, but

Olivia politely declined.

Kimberly understood her well. Olivia disliked being restrained.

The position of chief financial officer was demanding, and Olivia was more than capable of handling it.

It was simply that she did not want her freedom to be limited.

She would rather serve as a consultant to Kimberly.

With capable assistants like Frederick and Olivia, Kimberly didn’t have to worry too much.

Larson Corporation continued to thrive, becoming one of the most profitable businesses in Dellmoor

and even the entire Moranta.

Olivia used to constantly chastise her for being too preoccupied with raising the children, resulting in

her rarely having free time at that time.

However, she had no other choice. Candice’s body was weaker than Dexter and Sebastian’s, which

had necessitated more attention and effort from her in recent years.

Because of that, she had significantly less time for socializing with friends.

Shortly after, she took out her phone and called Olivia, saying, “Ollie, I’m free now. Let’s go have some

fun to celebrate.”

Olivia, the children’s godmother, was well aware that that day marked the first day of kindergarten for

the little cuties.

Even though she teased Kimberly about losing herself in motherhood, she could not help but be

smitten by the adorable children, especially the way they spoke in their sweet and tender voices.

Olivia’s plans to remain unmarried and childless had crumbled because of them.

“What a surprise! You finally have some free time today, huh? All right. I’m on my way.”

Olivia was indeed Kimberly’s best friend. Whenever Kimberly needed her, she would be there.

That was the tacit understanding they reached long ago.

They scheduled a meeting at a Clusian-style restaurant.

Despite having eaten breakfast, Kimberly was still extremely hungry after taking care of her kids all

morning.

In the blink of an eye, Kimberly had caten three prawns.

Watching her gobble up the food, Olivia was a bit shocked and worried she might choke.

Thinking about that, she handed Kimberly a glass of water and said, “With the way you are eating, no

one would believe you are the CEO of Larson Corporation if they did not already know.”

Then, Olivia mockingly added, “I mean, seriously, you need to learn to take things easy. Taking care of

one child is difficult enough, but you insist on raising three. Do you consider yourself to be

superhuman? Do you think you actually possess remarkable abilities?”

Kimberly took a big gulp from the water glass, replying. “You’re right. I should try to relax now that the

kids are older, or I will be old before I have time to do my own

thing.”

After saying that, she pinched her own face and continued, “Look at my face. It appears that I have lost

a lot of collagen in the last few years.”

When Olivia heard that, she chuckled and joked, “It’s never too late to mend. You should make

changes while there is still hope, or you might end up getting facelifts in Kepraria.”

Kimberly caught on to Olivia’s playful tone and playfully threatened to tickle her.

In fact, that was Olivia’s vulnerable spot, and she quickly begged for

mercy.

“You sure are adaptable, aren’t you?” Kimberly said with a chuckle, showing mercy.

“Ollie, I’ve noticed that you and Vincent are becoming more and more alike,” Kimberly commented. She

wasn’t just making it up. It was indeed the case.

As a matter of fact, Olivia and Vincent had maintained a close friendship for the past four years, with

hints of romance but no formal commitment.

Even Kimberly, an outsider, was growing impatient.

‘Why am I more anxious about her love interest than her?’ Kimberly wondered.

Even Olivia could not comprehend. Although she did not dislike Vincent, they had simply not made any

progress.

“I heard the Sullivan family is looking for a girl from a prestigious family and forcing him into going on

blind dates,” Kimberly said with a solemn expression. “The Sullivan family has always been like that,

prioritizing marriage before career. To become the heir, you must first start a family. Of course, they are

a bit more humane now, allowing the younger generations to choose their own partners, but it still has

to go through the family’s approval process.”

Kimberly’s intention was to kindly remind Olivia that if both of them had mutual feelings, they shouldn’t

hesitate and should take action.

Besides, they had known each other for some time. In matters of love, the ones involved always could

not see things objectively, but the bystanders could.

One should always go with the flow. Doing something when the resistance is minimal. would result in

happiness.

When it came to her and Vincent, Olivia was no longer shy or avoiding the subject.

Kimberly realized that she couldn’t place all the pressure on Olivia.

She needed to encourage Vincent as well.

In reality, Kimberly had discovered by chance that the Sullivan family was looking for a potential woman

for Vincent’s blind date.

Despite his prestigious family background, Vincent had limited freedom when it came to making his

own choices.

He would live the rest of his life under the control of others if he did not declare his independence now.

As someone who had been through a failed marriage, Kimberly did not want something similar to

happen to someone she cared about.

“In any case, that is just how things work in relationships. Once you miss the opportunity, there may not

be another chance. Your relationship with Jaxon is a prime example,” Kimberly continued.

When Jaxon was mentioned, Olivia was taken aback. Kimberly was right. Despite their feelings for

each other at the time, they had squandered their opportunity.

It was at that moment that Olivia realized that she needed to give it some serious. thought.

She had heard that a young woman from a prestigious family had a crush on Vincent. That woman

appeared to have recently returned to the country, most likely because she wished to marry into the

Sullivan family.

“I got it. You are already exhausted from caring for your three children, and you are treating me like the

fourth! I know you’re looking out for me, and I’ll give it serious. consideration,” Olivia replied.

“Here, have a piece of honey-garlic chicken thighs. It’s great for replenishing collagen,” Olivia added,

picking up two pieces and placing them on Kimberly’s plate.

Suddenly, Kimberly’s phone rang, and she glanced at it.

Seeing Kimberly’s furrowed brows, Olivia asked nervously, “What’s wrong? Who’s calling at this time?”

Surprisingly, it was a call from the kindergarten.

“Kindergarten,” Kimberly replied as she answered the phone.

“Hello, is this Candice’s mother? You need to come to the kindergarten immediately. She got into a fight

with one of her classmates.”

Hearing that, Kimberly was dumbfounded. She never imagined that Candice, who was generally

extremely well-behaved, would fight with someone.

She would not have reacted as strongly if it had been Dexter or Sebastian.

After hanging up, Kimberly and Olivia rushed to the kindergarten.

As expected, she knew her child the best..

The incident was not at all her child’s fault. Brody Zackery, another student in the class from a wealthy

family, had been so spoiled by his family that he had turned into a bully. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Candice was brave enough to call him out when she saw him bullying other students.

Unexpectedly, Brody tried to hit her as well.

Nonetheless, he failed to recognize that, despite her appearance, Candice had inherited her father’s

genes and was quite capable of defending herself,

Candice eventually fought back, and Brody’s parents arrived, causing havoc.
