Chapter 473 Replenish my Strength
Beyond the Divorce
Replenish My Strength If it weren't for Carolâs phone call, 1 wouldnât have wanted to get out of bed.
I felt like all the energy had been drained from me.
I found that the spot beside me had gone cold. It seemed he had been gone for a while.
With gritted teeth, I pushed myself up and glanced around the bedroom. It was impeccably tidy. I muttered under my breath, âIs this guy a wolf? He nearly devoured me.â After a quick shower, my legs still felt shaky. I changed into some fresh clothes and headed downstairs. I saw breakfast was already laid out on the table, along with a note.
Scoffing, I picked up the note. Was this some kind of trend now? His handwriting was bold and ~~ powerful. The note reminded me to eat and replenish my strength.
My face flushed as I cursed. This guy had no shame. He just had to point it out.
I lifted the lid off the dishes. The dishes were exquisitely prepared, and he even made some soup. Maybe it was because my energy was depleted, but I dug into everything with gusto. It was satisfying, and not one bit went to waste.
Then I drove straight into the office.
The online gossip was still buzzing, but I couldnât be bothered. Atlas and I both understood what was going on.
Let them say what they want. I couldnât enjoy the benefits and still act coy, could I? Thinking about it, I couldnât help but smile. I felt safe with someone like him watching over me. To think that just recently, Matthew had brought me such misfortune.
Now, it was all in the past.
Ryan wasnât around, so all the issues were piled onto me. In the afternoon, Eleanor came to see me and said she was going to a trade fair. I asked her to take an assistant along and gather more information.
Eleanor hadnât even left yet when Grayson walked in. She talked to him briefly, asking if he had any additional requests.
Iwas pleased with my current team.
They all had great understanding, and there was no backstabbing or scheming. This was my most significant success.
Once they sorted everything out, Eleanor bid me farewell and set off.
Then Grayson came over, standing in front of me with a self-assured smile. I knew he must have some good news.
Sure enough, he did. There was a major project in Bourdamun, and he handed me a stack of documents. âThese are the relevant materials for this project.â If Grayson hadnât mentioned it, I might have forgotten. Before Ava was kidnapped, I met a man named Jeremiah. He claimed to be a developer from Bourdamun, and he provided this information.
Grayson looked at me and said, âBut Jeremiah isnât an ordinary person.â âWhat do you mean?â I asked. Since Grayson brought it up, it meant this person was suspicious.
âChlo, do you remember Christopher Bill?â Grayson asked, his lips quirking.
âOf course, the project manager from Echelon Group. Atticus fired him because of that incident with Keegan,â I said. âDo they know each other?â âTheyâre cousins. Jeremiah is Christopherâs cousin!â Grayson 1 Wy TO BONUS explained. âSo, when Jeremiah came to you, it was because of Christopherâs connection.â vie Ah... Bourdamun, Christopher, and Jeremiah.
Christopher sent over Jeremiah to cause trouble for me. Little did he know, he had brought me valuable information. I ought to thank Christopher.
I'looked at Grayson and asked, âHas this project been confirmed? Donât tell me itâs in Jeremiahâs hands."
