Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 275

"See?"

He flashed her an effortless, charming smile, acting as if the intimate touch had been purely scientific. "My hands are very warm, aren't they?"

Elara didn't reply.

They were, in fact, incredibly warm.

But was that really all this was? Was he simply trying to prove he had a high body temperature?

She seriously doubted it.

A faint alarm bell rang in her mind, but she couldn't quite pinpoint why it felt so wildly inappropriate.

Besides, everything he had just said was undeniably true.

She had been out of the corporate world for far too long. In her early days as a mother, old colleagues and classmates would still invite her to dinners. But with Melody being so young, she could never get away, so she rejected them all.

By the time Melody grew older and she finally had some free time, the invitations had dried up. She couldn't exactly beg her way back into those circles.

Four or five years as a stay-at-home mother had severed her from her past. The only lifeline she had left was Sarah Norwood.

But Sarah was just a standard attorney. Even with her father's law firm backing them, they were outgunned by true billionaire elites.

In this war against Julian, she was virtually a one-woman army. Every step had to be calculated to perfection.

Luckily, all her patience and meticulous plotting had paid off: she had successfully recruited Maddox to her side.

But Sebastian had a point. The old man was pushing eighty. He could assist her briefly, but he couldn't micromanage her divorce the way he orchestrated his grandson's career.

It wasn't realistic.
