Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1922

If she said she didn’t like him, wouldn’t that be slapping Philip in the face?

Thinking of that, Yvonne hesitated.

But Philip spoke bluntly. “It’s fine. Say whatever you want. I won’t take it to heart.

“Besides, I know very well what kind of person my son is.”

Hearing that, Yvonne finally felt at ease.

“Mr. Carter Sr., since you’ve said that, then I’ll speak honestly.”

Charles and Michelle both tried to tug at her from behind.

It was obvious to them that this was just polite talk. If Yvonne took it at face value, she would be foolish.

But Yvonne spoke seriously. “Edwin is a very good person. I admire him, and I respect him.”

Philip nodded at that. “All right. Go on.”

There was an inscrutable smile on his face.

Seeing that expression, the three of them had no idea what to make of it.

After all, they rarely had any direct contact with someone like Philip.

At social gatherings, people of his standing were figures they could only glimpse from afar.

An encounter like this, at such close range, felt almost unreal.

As Yvonne spoke, she carefully read Philip’s reactions.

“But what I feel for him is admiration and envy. Nothing more than that.”

She continued earnestly, “I believe Edwin deserves someone even better. Putting him with me would be a waste.”

Hearing that, Philip disagreed instead.

“That’s where I think you’re wrong.”

Yvonne had been quietly pleased with her own words.

But when Philip openly refuted her, she felt puzzled.

Was there really something wrong with what she said?

At that, Philip lifted his hand in a casual wave.

“All right. If there’s nothing else, you may leave.”

“Then about what comes next…”

Yvonne gathered her courage and asked.

Her parents’ eyes widened at once.

It was the first time they realized their daughter could be this bold.

She was usually cautious in everything she did.

Yet now, she dared to press the matter repeatedly right in front of Philip.

The thought left them stunned.

But Yvonne knew opportunities came only once, and only to those who were prepared.

If she didn’t get to the bottom of it now, seeing Philip again in the future would be nearly impossible.
