Chapter 184
What an annoying coincidence!
Still, since she was the one who bumped into Julie first, she politely apologized, "I'm sorry."
Julie stepped forward, looking at her smugly, "What did you say? I didn't hear you."
Seeing that Julie was clearly looking for trouble, Lila decided not to apologize again even if she was at fault. She said coolly, "Oh, I didn't say anything."
"Lila, you?"
"What about me?"
Julie snorted coldly, "Don't think that just because you married Mr. Sinclair now, you can replace Celeste in his heart. Let me tell you, as soon as Celeste comes back, Mr. Sinclair will kick you out."
"Really? Did he tell you that?"
"Although Mr. Sinclair didn't tell me directly, he did say that when Celeste comes back, you two won't be husband and wife anymore."
Lila twitched her lips, "So what?"
"So you won't be smug for much longer."
"Which eye of yours saw me being smug? Do you think I really wanted to marry him? Actually, he was the one who insisted on marrying me. I don't even like him."
After saying that, she withdrew her gaze from Julie's face, turned around and pulled Elara, "Let's go Elara, let's go eat."
Elara looked at Julie suspiciously and followed Lila.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, Elara asked, "Lila, who is she?"
"She's the best friend of Alexander's former lover. It seems she also likes Alexander, so she can't stand me."
"This person has no self-awareness. Even if you weren't Mrs. Sinclair, Mr. Sinclair wouldn't be interested in her, right?"
Lila looked at Elara and asked with a smile, "Why do you say that?"
Elara glanced back and then said, "Just look at the way she talks and acts. It would be hard for her to fit into high society families. The Sinclair family is still a wealthy family after all, not just anyone can get in."
"So you're saying I'm pretty great then?"
"Of course, you're the granddaughter-in-law personally approved by Gaia."
Lila smiled, "That's true."
Outside, Julie watched Lila enter the newly opened restaurant and pulled her friend in as well.
Just as they entered, Ms. Hill, who was walking by, said to Alexander, "Mr. Sinclair, one of the people arguing at the door of this restaurant just now seemed to be your driver."
"Really?"
"Yes."
Alexander's mind replayed Lila's words "I don't even like him," and he said coolly, "Didn't notice."
"This restaurant seems to have good food, so many people are eating here."
"Yeah."
After they entered, Alexander spotted Lila right away.
He found a seat where he could clearly see Lila and sat down.
Ms. Hill sat across from him.
They quickly started ordering.
On Lila and Elara's side, they ordered appetizers and wine, chose their main courses, then ordered some side dishes, soup, and desserts.
After submitting the order, Lila propped her chin and looked at Elara, "Elara, if you were me, knowing you'll get divorced in a year, and your current husband will continue his happy life with his ex-girlfriend after becoming your ex-husband, would you just shut down emotionally and muddle through the days?"
Elara smiled, "That depends on who the person is."
"What do you mean?"
"I think marriage and dating are different. When dating, you might just need someone you like, but for marriage, you need to see if you're compatible. Maybe you feel you don't like Mr. Sinclair now, but if he's someone suitable to be a husband, why can't you develop feelings for each other? Didn't they say that if you fall in love with each other, that prenup of yours won't count anymore?"
