My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back

Chapter 182

Blake’s suspicions gained conviction.

Curtis was taking orders from Gerald, CEO of Patterson Finance Group. He was now directly entangled

in Kimberly’s affairs.

Blake’s gut said that Gerald’s relationship with Kimberly ran deeper than it seemed, that they had

grown close.

Christopher, upon hearing Blake’s revelation, fell into a contemplative daze. He eventually asked Blake

to dig into Gerald’s background, knowing that the relationship between the two could be difficult to

unravel.

Meanwhile, at the Levine manor, Lilian worried over Maxwell’s decision to meet Yandel. Her concerns

poured out incessantly as she repeated, “Maxwell, must you really see Yandel now? Can’t it wait until

Heather returns?”

Still, Lilian was a little worried. The thought of meeting the Larson family weighed on her, and she

feared it might trigger a fit of anger in Maxwell that could take a toll on his well-being.

Nevertheless, Maxwell had made up his mind to make this trip to Dellmoor. It was an agenda that was

long overdue.

The matter had dragged on for too long, and Maxwell was not one to let things linger.

Regardless of the outcome, Maxwell insisted he had to see Yandel. Besides, he was confident he could

handle it satisfactorily.

Frustrated, Maxwell retorted with a hint of displeasure in his voice, “Heather suffered. the most in this,

yet you’re asking her to come along with me?”

His response left Lilian momentarily speechless.

Maxwell continued, “Don’t forget, I’m not alone. There’s that girl Kimberly over there. Kimberly’s a

sensible one, and I’m sure she will be happy to let go of the grievances of the older generations.”

Lilian agreed on this point. Kimberly indeed possessed a kind heart and was always considerate of

others.

Maxwell added confidently, This time, I’m confronting that family, even if it means embarrassing myself.

No hotels for me; I’ll stay at Kimberly’s place. Their place is huge, and I don’t believe she’d have the

heart to kick an old man like me out.”

Seeing his proud yet content expression, Lilian playfully teased, “Oh, you! You’re really a stubborn old

child.”

Then, tentatively, Lilian asked, “Want me to come along?”

Her words took Maxwell by se as he sipped his water. With a forceful swallow, he waved it off and said,

“No. You should enjoy your peaceful time at home. I’m afraid if you go, you might end up in a fight with

that old man Yandel.”

Lilian could not help but feel a bit embarrassed by his response, though she was unable to deny her

impatience and quick temper in the past.

With that, Maxwell decided to leave the next day. He spent the day packing his luggage.

News of Kimberly’s ambush swiftly reached her brothers.

It was Olivia who informed Vincent, who then alerted the rest.

The revelation left each of them infuriated, especially David, whose anger simmered to a point where

he seemed ready to tear apart the person behind the ambush.

Investigating matters was David’s expertise. He immediately began arrangements and vowed that the

perpetrators would face justice.

Simon, fresh from the International Film Festival, where he had received an award, was caught off

guard by the alarming news.

The euphoria from receiving the award swiftly faded as the gravity of the situation set in, and he was

ready to shed his image of as an actor.

In a fit of cumon vowed, “Whoever laid a finger on Kimberly will find themselves on a one-way trip to

South Alendor!”

Samuel squinted thoughtfully, realizing there had been an onslaught of troubles in their lives. First,

there was the incident with Genevieve, and now Kimberly.

Though both situations had been resolved, he couldn’t shake the nagging concern of how these

incidents might escalate to something more ominous.

Samuel suggested, “The security system of the Larson residence needs an upgrade, especially

Kimberly’s personal security. Simon, you have the resources, so you take care

of this.”

Everyone concurred.

As a doctor, Edward’s main concern was Kimberly’s m ental well-being. He feared that

the incident might have left a lasting trauma in her.

“How about an outdoor barbecue at the Larson residence tonight? Just to lift our spirits. and ward off

any lingering bad luck on Kimberly,” Edward proposed.

His idea quickly gained unanimous approval from his brothers.

Ultimately, decisions were efficiently reached on a pleasant note, and with that, Vincent took charge of

the event.

Amidst the planning, someone jokingly said, “Can we bring a family member?”

David responded, “Of course. Why not? The more, the merrier. Besides, we don’t have that many

family members.”

Vincent could not help but ask, “Gerald deserves some credit this time. Should we

invite him?”

David responded in a deep voice, “Your call.”

Satisfied, Vincent grinned widely. He had recognized Gerald’s capability from the moment he got to

know him, and true to expectations, Gerald had not disappointed. him.

Fifteen minutes later, both Kimberly and Gerald received calls from Vincent.

Kimberly was thrown off by the sudden idea of a barbecue party. “An outdoor barbecue party at the

Larson residence tonight? Is there some special occasion we’re celebrating?” she asked.

Her mind raced through her brothers’ birthdays, her own, the triplets, and other significant dates, but

none fell on today.

Vincent chuckled and said, “Life deserves a bit of celebration, doesn’t it? Besides, all of us missed you.

Is that reason enough?”

Even after hanging up the phone, Kimberly found it quite abrupt. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Fortunately, it was a Friday. Otherwise, the three little ones would struggle to get up for school the next

day.

A lively event like that meant none of the triplets would be sleeping in their respective

rooms.

Before ending the call, Vincent asked Kimberly for Gerald’s number.

Though unsure what Vincent might need with Gerald’s number, she hesitated briefly before giving it to

the former.

Meanwhile, Gerald, amidst a hotel video conference, answered a call from ant unfamiliar number.

Vincent’s voice came through, saying, “Hello, I’m Vincent, Kimberly’s fifth brother. We’re planning an

outdoor party at the Larson residence for her tonight. Will you mind. joining us?”

Gerald recalled seeing Kimberly often with Vincent in Mysonna, sparking his curiosity about their close

relationship. Now, it all made sense. Vincent was Kimberly’s fifth brother.

Delighted by the revelation, Gerald tried to maintain a gentlemanly tone as he said, “Okay. I’ll be there

on time.”

A knowing smirk crossed Vincent’s face as he realized Kimberly’s connection to Gerald was clearly

significant because of how willingly the CEO of Patterson Finance Group accepted his invitation.

“Great! I’ll send you the address later, Vincent said.

Before he could finish, Gerald interrupted, “I know the Larson residence. I’ve been there before.”

Vincent was confused. ‘What’s going on here? Did I miss something?’ he thought.

With Gerald’s invitation taken care of, Vincent was ready to head out to purchase ingredients. He then

directed the others to set up the place.

The weather was just right for an outdoor barbecue today.

Kimberly called Vincent. “Vincent, do you need my help?” she asked.

Vincent beamed proudly and said, ‘It’s fine. I’ll have Olivia come to help me. Just make sure to be

home on time after work. And it would be better if you dress up.”
