Chapter 361 Julianâs eyes narrowed at McKenzieâs offer. Could she truly get Julian what he wanted?
Was that substance...an aphrodisiac?
As though she could tell what Julian had in his mind, McKenzie explained, âThis isnât just any ordinary aphrodisiac â I worked on this pill for ten years. She doesnât have to ingest it, for as long as her skin touches the pill, youâd be able to do all you want to her.â
Julian looked at McKenzie, impressed and in awe.
What a genius entrepreneur! She actually came up with this!
Still...
âWhy would you help me?â
âYou donât have to know. Anthony would go to the Bailey mansion in ten days, and thatâll be your only chance.â
McKenzie stood up and walked out of the office in her crystal heels sophisticatedly.
Julianâs eyes were fixed on the pill bottle, caught up in his thoughts.
In ten days?
Outside the office door, Tiffany hid behind a plant to stay hidden. When she made sure McKenzie did not spot her, she sighed in relief before signaling to Oliver right next to her.â You, go in and talk to Julian.â
âYes, Madam.â Oliver understood her and walked into the office.
He saw the pill bottle in Julianâs hand and frowned. âMr. Cabell, whatâsââ
âCancel all my schedule in ten days,â Julian instructed.
Oliver seemed even more worried at that. âSo Mr. Cabell has decided to be with Ms. Charmine? What about Tiffany? If Ms.
Tiffany finds out, she might be upset...â
âNo, sheâs very understanding. Sheâd know whatâs right,â said Julian calmly.
Tiffany, still outside Julianâs office, clenched her fists tightly. Would she have to be his secret lover forever and watched as he chased another woman, all because she was âunderstandingâ?
Even Oliver pitied Tiffany; an impressive woman like Tiffany did not deserve to be treated like that.
Oliver built up his courage and asked, âWhat... Whatâs next? Even if you eventually get a hold of Ms. Charmine, she may not fall for your plan so easily seeing who she is right now, and it might be difficult to divorce her later on. Taking her assets wonât be as easy...â
Julianâs eyes narrowed. Divorce?
He did not know why, but that word just made him uncomfortable somehow.
Charmine was so powerful and capable, with so much wealth and resources. Why divorce her?
âOliver, you speak too much today.â
âIâm sorry.â Oliver lowered his head as he turned to leave, but just as he took a few steps, the question spilled from his lips before he could think, âIf Mr. Cabell is not divorcing Ms. Charmine, what would Ms. Tiffany do for the rest of her life?â
The anxious Tiffany clenched her fists as she waited for his answer.
They had been together for so many years. He would probably care for her, right?
Which was why it came as a surprise that, after a moment of silence, Julian replied, âIâll make sure she has enough money.â
âEnough money...
Ha-ha-ha! âEnough money?
That basically meant he would not marry her!
Tiffany felt her heart shattered into pieces as tears rolled down her cheeks incessantly. She had planned things with Julian for so many years as she supported him wholeheartedly, helping him to be Mile-End Corporationâs president, and what did she get in return? âEnough money? 1 Julian used to tell her he would love her forever, and that changed to âhe wonât disappoint her â, and it then changed to âenough moneyâ.
Ha-ha-ha...!
Oliver asked nothing else as he left the office and shut the door behind him.
The gut-punched Tiffanyâs waterworks did not stop as she hid behind the plant.
Heart tugged at the sight, Oliver instinctively reached out to help her wipe off her tears, but Tiffany took a step back and recomposed herself. âOliver, please behave.â 2 Defensive like a hedgehog, she spoke pitilessly and unsparingly.
