The Ex-Wife He Can’t Have novel Chapter 336

"That's good. Drink less, it's bad for your health."

Tears welled up in Sylvia's eyes again. She covered her mouth, afraid to cry too loudly lest she annoy Killian.

"I know. I won't do it again. You should probably just block me."

Killian paused slightly. "Why?"

"Since we're broken up, it's not appropriate to keep each other on social media. Someone like me will only keep causing you trouble. If you block me, then even if I lose control and try to contact you, I won't be able to bother you."

Killian remained quiet for a few seconds. "Stop overthinking it. Get some rest."

The call ended.

Sylvia let out a long exhale.

Her sadness was real, and so was her embarrassment, but her calculated move to retreat in order to advance was even more real.

She wasn't stupid. She knew perfectly well that pushing him right now would only backfire.

As cold as Killian was, he wasn't made of stone. As long as she didn't corner him, he often couldn't be bothered to hold a grudge.

Sure enough, a day passed, and Killian didn't block her.

That weekend, Connor visited the Quincy estate.

Sienna was thrilled to see the boy and instructed the kitchen to prepare a lavish spread of his favorite foods.

Seeing her in such high spirits, Eleanor asked casually, "Why are you so happy today?"

"Connor got first place in his class this time." Sienna smiled, looking at Connor. "Our Connor is so brilliant. Perfect scores in every subject. He definitely inherited his parents' brains."

Eleanor raised an eyebrow slightly.

In the past, whenever Sienna praised Connor, she always credited Killian entirely, and any flaws were inevitably blamed on Jillian.

It was rare for her to acknowledge Jillian's intelligence like this today.

But then she reasoned that both Killian and Jillian were highly educated, so the comment wasn't out of place. Eleanor didn't dwell on it.

"Connor, when you visit your mom next week, bring her your report card. She'll be so happy."

Connor nodded.
