He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 71

Having successfully resigned from the Flynn Group, Scarlett Langley was finally able to take back all her design drafts and hard work.

Scarlett let out a heavy sigh of relief. This was a small, but significant, victory.

Her next step was to register her daughter's legal paperwork, and then, finally, file for divorce.

Thinking about her daughter's registration, Scarlett pulled her car into the underground garage of Azure Estates and sat in silence for a moment.

Summoning her courage, she texted Jacqueline.

[Mom, when are you coming back?]

She waited in the car for a long time, but Jacqueline never replied.

A wave of melancholy washed over her. She thought about how her relationship with her mother had deteriorated over the past five years, all because of Yardley Flynn. They had been constantly at odds, their relationship freezing to an absolute standstill.

Scarlett let out another heavy sigh. Why did she ever bother getting married? It had nearly cost her her entire family. And in the end, the marriage had given her absolutely nothing but misery.

Scarlett shook her head, refusing to dwell on it any longer, and took the elevator up to her apartment.

After quickly sanitizing her hands and changing into her loungewear, she took her daughter from Zara.

Dawn had just woken up and was feeding. Her little face was flushed pink, and she looked incredibly adorable clutching her bottle.

Looking at that delicate, beautifully crafted little face, Scarlett's heart swelled with joy. She simply couldn't bear to put the baby down.

Just then, Talia Gray sent her a photo. It showed a mountain of designer baby products piled high in the hallway.

Talia attached a message:

[Clarissa Flynn just dropped by. Said she was bringing stuff for Dawn, and I ran right into her. Is the sun rising in the west for the Flynn family? Did they finally grow a conscience?]

Scarlett pictured Clarissa's cold, aloof face and felt a flicker of surprise, but she had no intention of accepting the goodwill.

She called Talia immediately.
