Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

Mr.

Greens eyes lingered on her like she was a piece of art on sale, making Dulcie feel like a butterfly pinned for display.

Already naturally timid, Dulcie felt particularly out of place at her first event like this.

Overwhelmed, she found herself clinging to Kysons arm for comfort.

Still, she managed a polite smile and nod to the man.

Noticing the mans lingering gaze on Dulcie, Kyson protectively wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close.

His tone was cold and final as he addressed Mr.

Green.

It seems our companies arent a good fit. Lets not waste any more time on this.

Do as you see fit.

He then led Dulcie away to another part of the banquet hall and promptly made a call to Kurt.

Terminate all cooperation with the Green Group.

Terminate cooperation? Dulcie was stunned.

Was Kysons decision to sever ties with the Green Group solely because Mr.

Green had looked at her suggestively? The Green Group and the Shaw Group had always had a strong partnership.

Surely, such an abrupt end would lead to losses for their company? She glanced up at Kyson with uncertainty and called out softly, Mr.

Shaw… He looked down, meeting her eyes with an unyielding gaze.

Noticing her confusion and hesitation, Kyson explained patiently, Tonight, you are my date.

Greens disrespectful gaze in my presence is unacceptable.

We cannot affiliate ourselves with someone who shows us no respect.

This is about making a statement.

Despite the situation, Dulcie felt a reassuring warmth from his protective stance.

She nodded gently and said softly, Thank you, Kyson.

This time, she dropped the formalities, referring to him by his first name, signaling a shift to a more personal connection.

Kyson noticed the change in how she addressed him but remained silent, continuing to escort her through the bustling banquet.

The music suddenly shifted from a slow melody to a lively dance tune, heightening Dulcies anxiety. Having grown up in the mountains, she was unfamiliar with dance steps common at such events.

Feeling anxious, she tightened her grip on Kysons hand.

Her nervousness was palpable.

Kyson, aware it was her first time at such an event and knowing she was unfamiliar with the customs, took the time to explain each etiquette detail to her with uncommon patience, showing no signs of irritation.

Im here, he assured her.

His words acted like a soothing balm, alleviating Dulcies tension and anxiety.noveldrama

As they progressed further into the banquet, more people approached to greet Kyson.

Aware of his stature in the business world, Dulcie didnt want to be a hindrance.

She tentatively suggested, Um… maybe I should wait here while you handle your business.
