Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You -
Chapter 2119
She dropped her voice even lower, subtly siding with Hilliard.
“I’ve always heard that you adore your wife and have turned into a total devotee.
Does she have you on a tight budget? Are you trying to make Hilliard pay you, to supplement your personal money without Lucinda’s knowledge?”
Lucinda was only sleeping lightly and despite Jennifer’s hushed tone, she caught a few crucial words through her drowsiness.
She sleepily lifted her head and gazed at Nathan with half-closed eyes.
“I’m also curious to know why you’re charging Hilliard tuition.
Are you trying to stash away some money privately?”
Caught off guard, Nathan was at a loss for words and his expression turned rigid.
Facing the curious gazes of all three people at once, Nathan leaned close to Lucinda and whispered, “I just want to help Hilliard gain some experience in wooing Jennifer.
”
Lucinda suppressed her laughter, gently stroking Nathan’s handsome face.
She then turned to Hilliard and Jennifer seated across from them.
“My loving husband would never hide any money from me.
I’ve never had to control his finances.
He’s incredibly self-disciplined and never spends extravagantly unless it’s to surprise me with little gifts.
I’m sure he was joking with Hilliard.
”
Pleased, Nathan nuzzled his nose against Lucinda’s.
“Honey, you know me best.
”
Despite being a couple themselves, Hilliard and Jennifer watched the affectionate display with complex emotions.
Hilliard, especially, furrowed his brows, his discomfort with the situation evident.
Had he known how sweet Lucinda and Nathan could be, he might have thought twice before inviting them on this trip; their loving behavior made him feel somewhat constrained.
Unaware of his thoughts, Jennifer gazed at the affectionate relationship between Lucinda and Nathan with a hint of envy.
After a few hours of flight, the four travelers finally disembarked at the airport in Tysonia’s vibrant capital.
This city was renowned for its desserts, particularly its curry and sweet paste delicacies.
That very afternoon, they ventured to the city’s largest food court.
“The streets are too crowded.
How about dining at a hotel?” Hilliard

suggested.
Lucinda objected, “Typically, the most popular stalls in the street alleys offer the most delectable flavors.
While the five-star hotels are the most hygienic and provide top-notch service, they often lack that authentic deliciousness.
Since we’re here, we should savor the local cuisine and immerse ourselves in the culture of Tysonia.
”
Nathan, holding Lucinda’s hand, chimed in, “My wife is right.
”
Jennifer concurred, “The streets are so vibrant and full of life.
Dining at a large hotel would undoubtedly be dull and lonely.
I also believe the streets are a better choice, plus we can capture some unique photos.
”
With everyone siding with Lucinda, Hilliard had nothing more to say and silently followed the two ladies.
On the bustling streets, Lucinda ordered two servings of pineapple fried rice, while Jennifer chose the characteristic Tom Yum Goong soup and curry noodles.
Nathan and Hilliard, following obediently, refrained from ordering anything for themselves, content to share whatever Lucinda and Jennifer chose.
If the ladies couldn’t finish their meals, Nathan and Hilliard were there to help clear the leftovers.
The afternoon shopping atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Contrary to what Nathan and Hilliard had expected, they found themselves reduced to mere human baggage carriers and tag-alongs.
