Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband? novel Chapter 374

The Harvey Family Dinner?

Mila picked up the invitation and glanced at it, her brows arching in surprise. What was Giselle up to this time?

She and the Harveys weren’t just strangers—they couldn’t stand each other.

And now they wanted her to join their family dinner?

As if they had good intentions.

Still, whatever this was about, it would be easy enough to find out. She remembered Charlotte, who she’d sent into the Harvey household some time ago. Mila pulled out her phone, switched to a virtual number, and sent Charlotte a quick message.

The response came back in no time—a whole flood of messages, actually.

As Mila read through them one by one, her expression grew colder and colder. Her grip on the phone tightened until her knuckles went white.

“What’s wrong?” Miranda, who was still trying to coax a sullen child into a better mood, noticed Mila’s face and asked with concern.

Mila didn’t answer right away.

She shot back a message, double-checking her words. Charlotte said she’d only overheard bits and pieces—nothing clear—but warned Mila not to attend the dinner. The Harveys were definitely up to no good, and she should be extra careful over the next few days.

Mila turned off her phone, her face darkening.

It was only after Miranda pressed her again and again that Mila finally talked about the second half of her recent trip—specifically, how she’d been chased into the woods by armed criminals. She left out one crucial detail, though: she’d accidentally trespassed onto a military site. She’d signed a non-disclosure agreement and couldn’t mention anything about that.

Miranda was equal parts shocked and furious.

“Is Giselle insane? Hiring thugs to kill you? What is wrong with her? Is all this just for Lysander? Has she lost her mind?”

Mila couldn’t help but feel the same way. If this was really just about a man, she was speechless. It’s not like she wanted to compete for him—if Giselle was so capable, why didn’t she go after Lysander herself? Why drag Mila into it?

Were they all crazy?

To try to get someone killed over something so trivial—it was absurd.

“Or maybe there’s another reason?” Mila frowned, unable to make sense of it. In her memory, Giselle had never struck her as someone who’d lose her mind over a man or do something this reckless. Was Giselle really willing to get her hands dirty for a guy?

“Think about it,” Miranda pressed. “Is there any other grudge between you two?”

Mila fell silent. Well, there was one thing: seven years ago, she’d married Lysander, taking away Giselle’s supposed ‘perfect match’—after all, there had been an old family arrangement between them since childhood.

But did Mila even want that marriage in the first place?

She was tired of being blamed for everything. Why couldn’t Giselle focus her energy on Lysander instead of making Mila out to be the villain?

It was ridiculous.
