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

After a moment’s hesitation, Kyson muted his phone and chose not to answer the call.

Colby noticed and smirked.

“Is that your girlfriend calling? Kyson, how can you ignore your girlfriend like that? How did someone as inconsiderate as you even get a girlfriend?”

Kyson felt a twinge of embarrassment.

Colby wasn’t finished.

“You should call her back, right? She must be worried about not being able to reach you.

Men should be considerate toward women.

Understand?”

Colby raised his chin, giving Kyson a lesson in manners.

Kyson suppressed a smile, finding Colby’s earnestness rather endearing.

“You’re right, Colby.

I’ll send her a message.

”

Without any hint of annoyance, Kyson typed a quick message to Dulcie explaining that he wouldn’t be returning to the Shaw residence that night.

He then placed his phone back on the bedside table.

Meanwhile, at the window, Destinee had grown tired from her play and was starting to feel sleepy.

She yawned, rubbing her eyes, and turned away from the high chair.

“Kyson, I’m sleepy.

I want to go home and sleep.

”

Her voice was weary and soft, barely above a whisper.

Kyson quickly wrapped his wounded finger with a tissue and walked over to lift Destinee into his arms.

“Destinee, you’re such a brave girl.

We won’t go back to N&L Fairy Land tonight, but I’ll stay right here with you, okay?”

Destinee pouted and nestled into Kyson’s embrace, visibly upset.

“Where’s Daddy? Where’s Mommy? I want to sleep in Mommy’s arms.

I can’t fall asleep without her.

”

During the day, she could be comforted by anyone, but nights were different for her.

Kyson did his best to soothe her, but it was clear that Destinee was not comforted by his presence alone.

She wanted her mother.

“It’s okay if Daddy isn’t here, but I need Mommy! Why can’t Colby and I go home tonight?” Her voice wavered as she spoke, and soon she was crying openly in Kyson’s arms.

“Did Mommy and Daddy… leave us? They won’t let us go home…” She sobbed uncontrollably.

Kyson was at a loss with Destinee’s tears.

He had never been responsible for putting her to bed and felt utterly unprepared.

In a moment of desperation, he attempted to call Nathan.

However, Nathan’s phone was switched off.
