Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 432

Chapter 45

“It’s been decided, Sierra and I are now best friends,” Lilly says as she walks into the kitchen where I was having my coffee while our cook prepared breakfast.

It is Saturday, so I didn’t have work and she didn’t have school. Today we could just chill, lazy around and just relax. After the hectic days I had at work, I needed a break.

“You like her that much, huh?” I sip my coffee, trying to hide my smile.

“Definitely,” she gets up on the bar stool before taking a banana. “We have a lot in common. She loves exploring and reading, just like me.”

When she first told me about Sierra, I never thought that it would lead to them being best friends. I should have seen it coming given that Lilly would talk about her every day at dinner.

My lovely girl has never had a best friend. Like I said, she shied away from forming close friendships with the other children at her former school.

I never really understood whether it was because she cared more about studying than playing, or she just didn’t connect with them, or it was because she thought she was mature, and they were too childish for her taste. Either way, she just never clicked with them like she had with Sierra.

“I’m glad to hear that, my sunshine” I reach out, pull her to me, and kiss her temple before releasing her. “I’m happy to hear that you’ve finally found a girl you are genuinely happy to be around.”

Honestly, I haven’t met Sierra, but I could kiss her right now for bringing Lilly out of her cocoon.

“I’m happy too,” she says with a smile. “Did you know that Sierra is only a year older than me? But because she’s really smart, she skipped one grade. That’s why she’s in the same grade as Noah even though Noah is older than her.”
