Chapter 4 Mikayla turned back and said, âWho allowed you to throw it away? Pick it â
The receptionist afraid of her. âWhy bother? Mr. Miller wonât look at it , Every time you send something, he tells us to throw it away the past, Mikayla used to worry about Jerome working too hard, so she tirelessly sent him food clothes, and small items to relieve stress.
She even wrote letters pouring out her feelings, like the female protagonists in novels.
Little did she know that Jerome treated her care like this Even the receptionist dared to dispose of her things..
Mikayla glared at the receptionist. âWhether Jerome looks at it or not, you have no right to throw away my things! Now, pick it up!â
The receptionist sneered, âFine, Iâll pick them up. Why the attitude like youâre the CEOâs wife? Youâre just throwing yourself at him.â
Mikayla was angered. âYou âWhatâs going on here?â
Mikayla was about to make the receptionist apologize when a stern male voice interrupted.
She turned and saw Jeromeâs assistant, Mike Ashford. Standing beside him was Jerome, dressed in a black designer suit.
He was tall and goodâlooking, and even though he seemed a bit cold, he still looked charming.
In the past, just seeing him would make Mikaylaâs heart race. Her face would turn red, and she would shyly call out to him. Now, she didnât even want to speak.
âMrs. Miller,â Mike greeted her politely.
Mikayla didnât respond with her typical selfâsatisfaction because Jerome had never acknowledged her from the start.
This âMrs. Millerâ was just a matter of courtesy.
Unaware of Mikavlaâs thoughts Chapter 4 2/3 The receptionist looked Jerome then reluctantly explained, âMr. Miller instructed not accept anything from Mrs. Miller, but she insisted giving it to Mr.
â
Upon hearing that, Jerome frowned and questioned Mikayla, âWho allowed you to behave so arrogantly here?â
stated âI didnât arrogantly, and I didnât force her. She threw away my things asked her to pick-
âEnough!
Jerome interrupted impatiently. âYouâre just making excuses. Mikayla youâre truly despicable.â
He immediately pronounced her guilty without looking into the matterâno wonder the receptionist felt comfortable distorting the facts.
In Jeromeâs eyes, she was full of flaws and wickedness.
Mikayla didnât bother to explain. She smiled indifferently and said, âSoon, you wonât have to tolerate me anymore.â
She picked up the file folder and remarked, âIâve prepared a divorce agreement. Letâs go to City Hall to finalize the procedure before it closes.â
Upon hearing this, Mike discreetly gestured for the receptionist to leave, and he retreated a few steps away.
âI called you and sent messages, but you never responded, so I came to the company,â Mikayla explained as she handed the file folder to Jerome.
Jerome didnât take it. He sneered, âMikayla, canât you just be quiet and not make trouble for a few days?â
Mikayla calmly smiled and said, âNo matter what I say, you wonât believe it. The best thing to do is go to City Hall and get a divorce now.â
Jerome frowned slightly upon witnessing Mikaylaâs indifferent smile and emotionless gaze.
After years of Mikaylaâs relentless pursuit and utilizing every conceivable method to marry him, he was incredulous that she would now be seeking a divorce.
Jerome perceived everything she was currently doing as the ultimate joke century. He thought she was playing hard to get, thinking it would garner his attention. Jerome scoffed, âIs your rush to City Hall part of a staged spectacle youâve set up for my arrival? Milavla, aside from clinging to me very day, donât you have myttang else to deff ç¼ Her wholehearted love was a mere entanglement in his eyes.
Mikayla was once again grateful that she had finally stepped out.
She pulled out the divorce agreement from the file folder and said, You can sign it now That will prove Iâm not clinging to you anymore.
At the sight of the divorce agreement, Jeromeâs patience instantly diminished.
Since Atikayla insisted on the divorce, he might as well go along with it.

âeing me a pen!â Jerome demanded.
âMr. Miller, Mr. Diogo is still waiting for you to sign the contract. Time is running out,â Mike reminded him in a hushed voice, The Miller Group had been diligently negotiating a crucial collaboration for an extended period, and Mikayla nearly jeopardized it.
Jerome ignored Mikayla and hastily walked toward the exit with Mike.
âJerome!â Mikayla chased after him.
âGet her away from me!â
Several bodyguards surrounded Mikayla once Jerome gave the order. â
Aware of Jeromeâs workaholic nature and the unlikelihood of him having time for a divorce today, she shouted, âSee you at City Hall tomorrow at 9:00 am!â
Jerome got into the waiting car and promptly left.
Mikayla pondered whether he would show up but quickly ascertained that he would, as Jerome was eager to be rid of her.
Mikayla felt relieved at that thought, Back at the villa, she logged into her longâneglected email account. There were several job invitations from investment banks.
Instead of instantly trashing them like she used to, she opened each one. Unfortunately, all the offers had expired.
She forfeited an opportunity from a prestigious investment bank, an institution coveted by numerous financial elites, just cater to the selfish whims of Jerome.
Filled with regret, she vowed to plan her life more meticulously avoid being blinded by romantic relationships.
After sending out a few job applications, Mikayla thought about the impending divorce with Jerome the next day and felt relieved.
She shut down the computer and began packing. Once the divorce certificate was in her hands, she could leave immediately.
