The Ex-Wife's Triumph novel Chapter 59

Saying this, she showed a scenic photo she had taken earlier to Lucy.

Lucy looked at the photo and laughed. "I was born here, yet I've never properly toured these places. Whenever I went, it was for organized school trips."

"The scenery on your doorstep is always easy to ignore!" Emma smiled and swiped to another page. "By the way, Lucy, I booked a night shoot at The Capital Plaza for the early morning. Do you want to come?"

Lucy wanted to refuse, but thinking of a young girl like Emma going out in the middle of the night alone, she nodded. "Okay, I'll go with you."

Emma immediately handed over her phone, excited. "Lucy, look! This is the kind of vibe I want to capture for the video!"

Lucy looked at the screen, smiling with a hint of resignation. "If you want to film it, go film it. I'll accompany you."

At 3:30 PM, Lucy took Emma back into the Sherwood Group.

This time, the secretary led them directly to a small conference room.

Before a few minutes had passed, Shane pushed the door open, looking apologetic.

"Miss Lynwood, I'm terribly sorry. An issue popped up with a project, and Mr. Sherwood is in an online meeting. It will likely take another twenty minutes to finish."

"It's fine. We'll wait." Lucy nodded calmly.

A moment later, a secretary brought two cups of hot coffee.

Lucy rubbed her eyes, which were still aching slightly, and took a pair of rimless blue-light glasses from her bag. Putting them on, she opened her computer and began checking the revised designs page by page, not letting a single detail slip.

Before twenty minutes were up, the conference room door opened.

Kingsley looked up at her. His eyes were somewhat softer than before, but he didn't say much, just nodded to finalize it.

"The cost for the splash pad is approved, but the material quality must meet standards. Send the complete revised construction drawings by next Friday. The construction team is waiting for the prints to start."

"No problem," Lucy responded, reaching out to pack up the files on the table.

After they finished discussing the other issues, Kingsley suddenly spoke up. "Every time you see Molly, do you ever regret it?"

Lucy's movements stopped abruptly. She looked up at Kingsley, her eyes full of distance. "Never."

In her heart, she silently added, "Of course I would have regretted it if I'd ended the pregnancy. But now that I have Seven with me, why would I regret anything?"

Kingsley's eyes darkened instantly. He didn't say another word, standing up and walking straight out of the conference room.
