The Apology from My Ex and His Mistress novel Chapter 347

“Did you really spend all those years exiled at sea and come back just to decide you like her?” Maxwell said sharply.

Lennon lowered his eyes a little.

That’s right, those years at sea were the family’s way of banishing him

But not many people knew about this.

At that time, the ones in power weren’t their group, but some other branch.

He forced his way to open up sea routes and got a lot of resources. His real way to make a living was actually shipping.

All the routes, ports, and local powers, along with all kinds of local resources, were linked into a giant network.

The jewelry business was just one source of goods.

Actually, he had his hands in a lot of things. As long as it was about cargo exports, he always took a cut.

But hardly anyone knew about all this.

Even Maxwell just knew he was exiled back then.

without her.”

Lennon didn’t say anything and just frowned at Maxwell.

“Lennon.” Maxwell started, speaking softly, “You could choose other women, there were plenty of people who wanted to be with you, it wasn’t like you had to be with her…”
