The Replacement He Never Wanted

Chapter 466 Old Feelings

Mike changed his stance, resting his hand on the car door, his tone incredulous. "Yeah," came the response from the other end. "Are you serious, Lance? Can't you prioritize? "The person at the airport is the Divine Healer! What woman could be more important? "If the Divine Healer feels slighted and leaves because of this, you'll regret it!" Mike seemed genuinely agitated, forgetting his usual decorum as he shouted into the phone outside the airport. Lance glanced at Addison again. Of course, he knew the significance of the Divine Healer. The Divine Healer not only represented the future of Johnston Enterprise but also Steven's survival. He was fully aware of the stakes. However, he couldn't bring himself to leave Addison, who was crying so heartbreakingly. Her sobs were like someone who had lost someone extremely important, much like his own despair when he stood before Walter and Harvey's graves. Seeing her like this, Lance's heart softened. "I understand. I'll be there as soon as I handle things here." He chose her. Mike had no idea what was happening on the other end. He just found it absurd. "Is this woman Virginia? "If you want to get close to Virginia, you can do it anytime. Why now?" He wondered if Lance was so taken by someone. "It's not her." "Not her?" Mike was startled. "Do you have a new flame?" He had just been silently cursing Lance for being lovestruck, but now he awkwardly took it back. It seemed Lance wasn't as he had imagined, which was good. Suddenly, he realized that a new flame could mean bigger problems, worrying that Lance might start to fall apart.Mike was deeply concerned. "I don't have a new flame," Lance retorted sharply. "You don't?" Mike frowned. "If it's not a new flame and not Virginia, who else could it be?" He couldn't figure it out. "It's Addison. She's upset right now, and I need to comfort her first." When Lance mentioned "Addison," even he didn't realize how soft his tone had become. "Add ... Addison?" Mike couldn't believe it. Before he could say anything else, Lance hung up, leaving him to guess. Whatwasgoingon? Didn't Lance askmetodraft a divorceagreement? Shouldn't he and Addison havesigneditanddivorcedbynow? Mike remembered it clearly because of the clause that only gave Addison ten million dollars. Even though Lance was his best friend, he couldn't help but secretly criticize Lance for giving too little, not even enough to buy a decent car.But now, with this unexpected turn of events, he wondered if their old feelings had reignited.
