Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 2164

Encouraged by his words, Luisa hooked her arm through his and rested her head on his shoulder.

“Sonny, you’ve become the rescuer in my life.

”

Sonny kept his focus on the road, driving carefully while allowing her to lean into him.

Luisa then brought up an earlier moment.

“Back at the rental apartment, when you pulled out that bank card you’ve saved for so long, I was shocked.

I thought you were about to hand over all your savings to them.

”

With a confident smile, Sonny responded, “They failed you as parents.

Seeing you settle in, they tried to exploit you for their debts, which was just selfish and greedy.

I couldn’t bear giving them a single penny.

”

“Me neither.

I’m relieved they didn’t get the money.

”

Luisa’s eyes sparkled with mischief as she turned to Sonny playfully.

“However, for our engagement, you still need to prepare the fund.

Since I don’t have parents right now, Sonny, you can give the fund directly to me, so that I can start preparing our engagement.

”

Sonny, aware of her playful scheme, responded with a smirk, “Alright, I’ll not only give you the fund but also the wedding gifts.

However, since you are under my care, I’ll hold onto this money for now.

”

Luisa was momentarily speechless.

Wasn’t this essentially the same as not giving her the money at all?

Two days later, the group’s international travels concluded as Lucinda, Nathan, Jennifer, and Hilliard touched down in Stastle.

Despite the fatigue from their journey, the trip had been immensely enjoyable, particularly for Jennifer and Hilliard, who seemed to have benefited greatly.

The journey’s minor troubles hadn’t dampened their spirits or affected their relationship.

Walking together through the VIP passageway of Stastle airport, Hilliard addressed Lucinda with a serious tone.

“Lucinda, Jennifer and I are thinking of moving up our wedding date.

What do you think?”

“That’s wonderful, Hilliard.

You’re not getting any younger; it’s high time you got married.

Let’s find a suitable date for the wedding in the next few days.

”

Jennifer, feeling a bit shy, lowered her head and followed them quietly.

Nathan then spoke up thoughtfully.

“As the head of the family, Lucinda, shouldn’t you personally visit Forden to dine with the elders of the Turner family? It’s only proper.

”

Indeed, etiquette demanded such a meeting.

Not just the meal, but all wedding-related arrangements needed thorough discussion between the two families.

“Lucinda manages quite a few businesses and is deeply involved in their operations.

If she can’t find the time, I can accompany Jennifer to Forden to sort out these details,” Hilliard offered.

Lucinda pondered this for a moment.

When Cyrus was engaged to Noelle, Lucinda personally visited the Shaw family to show her support.

As for Hilliard and Jennifer’s engagement, the situation was a bit more complex.

Forden was not close to Stastle, requiring a flight to reach, and Lucinda’s bustling schedule made it difficult for her to spare the time.

Previously, she had delegated the responsibility to Hilliard to manage on his own.
