After the Divorce, My Ex-Wife Just Can't Move On novel Chapter 3

After leaving the Brown family, Lucas returned to his small rented house on the outskirts of the city.

He quickly packed and bought a train ticket for a tech startup conference in a nearby city.

Lucas had always been passionate about technology, but marriage had pushed that aside.

Now divorced, he felt free to pursue his long-held dream.

However, just as he arrived in the new city, Ava called.

"Lucas, can you come back? It's urgent."

Lucas surveyed the unfamiliar, vibrant surroundings and replied firmly: "I'm busy."

Ava hesitated, then said:"There's an issue at the company. I can't find an important document you usually handle."

Ava, who played a key role in the family business, often relied on Lucas for such tasks.

"Lucas?" Ava prompted.

After a brief pause, Lucas replied:"Check the office again or ask the secretary."

Anticipating Ava's stress, he called a former colleague at the Brown family business to assist her.

Shortly after, Ava texted: "Found it. Thanks."

Lucas replied: "You're welcome."

He advised her to be more organized with important documents to avoid bothering others. Ava responded with a simple "Got it."

Lucas put his phone away and refocused on the conference.

The event was brimming with innovative tech ideas, which filled him with excitement and hope.

However, his concentration was interrupted by another call from Ava.

Lucas quickly ended the call, determined not to be disturbed again.

At the conference, he connected with like-minded individuals, discussing the future of technology and sharing entrepreneurial insights.

He felt a renewed sense of purpose and motivation.

On the way back, Lucas was deep in thought, planning his startup, when an argument between two passengers on the bus broke his focus.

"If we got married, would you still help your brother like this?"

"He's family, and he's struggling. We've been through so much together. I can't just abandon him."

"But our life is hard too."

The young man sighed, frustrated, trying to explain.

I was in a similar situation once, but my wife didn't care about the problems my connections caused.
