My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 369

Chapter 369:

It felt like an eternity before Lise seemed to realize that crying wasn’t helping, and her sobbing suddenly

stopped. After a pause, Kristopher spoke again. “In the coming days, think about where you'd like to go. It

doesn’t have to be Izrosa. Janfort, Steu Skua... or maybe I'll just buy you an island.”

This time, Kristopher was resolute—he would solve this problem once and for all. When Lise returned to Orkset,

Kristopher had assumed having her close would be manageable, believing it would allow him to take better care

of her. But Lise wanted more than he could offer. What she longed for, he had never been able to give her in the

past. Years ago, they had been a couple, but he held back from any real intimacy—at most, there were short

hugs and quick pecks. When it cto making love, he wanted to, but he just couldn’t, never able to fully

engage. Now, with Carrie in his life, he was even less capable of meeting Lise’s needs.

Keeping Lise in the country, amidst the media frenzy and online gossip, would only harm all three of them. After

thinking it over, Kristopher made up his mind—Lise had to leave.

Lise stayed silent, and Kristopher softly said, “Take care and rest well,” before ending the call. He set the phone

down and looked up, meeting Carrie's gaze. Carrie opened her mouth to speak, but he beat her to it, saying, “I

know you have many questions. One day, I'll explain everything.”

But now isn’t the right time.” Carrie simply nodded. “Okay, I'll go shower.”

Kristopher had already compromised by deciding to send Lise to Izrosa, so Carrie was willing to meet him

halfway. After all, the past was the past. As long as it didn’t interfere with their current marriage and relationship,

she had no interest in it then, and none now.

After Carrie finished her shower, she filled a basin with warm water to help Kristopher clean up. As she gently

wiped, his body responded almost immediately. She quickly looked away, pretending she hadn’t noticed, and

helped him pull his pants back on. Kristopher made no further advances.

Carrie turned off the light and slid into bed. Kristopher was already lying there, staring at the ceiling with a

serious expression. She could tell he was thinking about Lise. Turning away from him, she curled up with the

blanket, trying to drift off to sleep. The events of the day had been overwhelming, and Carrie wasn’t sure how to

process everything. She could only reassure herself that things had turned out for the best.

Just as her eyes fluttered closed, she felt a strong arm slip around her waist, pulling her into a warm embrace.

She nestled against his chest, the faint scent of his cologne and comfort surrounding her. He bent down, kissing

the top of her head softly. “Goodnight,” he murmured.

She wasn't sure how long it took, but soon enough, she sank into a peaceful sleep, wrapped in his warmth.

Receptionist’s Sharp.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the curtains, gently illuminating Carrie's face. She yawned and

slowly opened her eyes, noticing the brightness of the day. Reaching out to snuggle into sleep, her hand met the

cool, vacant side of the bed where Kristopher had lain.

Now fully alert, she scanned the room and realized she was alone. She rose, opened the bedroom door, and

walked to the top of the stairs. Peering down, she saw Willow cleaning the living room floor.

“Willow, where's Kristopher?” she asked.
