âMiss, my boss really is Ms. Larsonâs friend. Please call her again.â
Felix, an assistant of the CEO of a big enterprise, was condescending to beg a receptionist for his boss.
Felix peeked at Christopher while talking to the receptionist.
After they came back from Mysonna, Noah and the bodyguards all went back..
As soon as he and Christopher arrived in Dellmoor, they went to the Larson residence first. However, they didnât see Kimberly there, so they had to come to her company.
Felix worried that if they were rejected again, Christopher would break into Kimberlyâs office.
Kimberly had had enough of it so she turned off the iPad.
She rubbed her forehead and didnât want to see Christopher again.
Suddenly, she thought of the trending topic earlier, so she asked, âHowâs the stocks going today?â
The Larson Corporationâs stocks were doing very well today.
The strategic partnership between Larson Corporation and the MacQuoid Group was very beneficial for the former, and the ânegative newsâ created by Eliza made it more. widely known.
âThe two things sent shares of Larson Corporation soaring.â Frederick looked at the candlestick chart and transaction data of the stocks and explained them to Kimberly.
While they were talking about the future of Larson Corporation, the door of the office was broken open, and a noise came from outside. âSir, you canât go in without an appointment!â
After learning the news that someone had broken into the CEOâs office, the security guards hurried to gather people here.
However, Christopher ignored the warnings of the staff.
He had been trained in the army for a few years so he was very sturdy. It was not easy to stop him.
Frederick was shocked. He didnât expect Christopher to do this.
And as a member of Larson Corporation, it was Frederickâs responsibility to protect Kimberly.
Therefore, he shouted at the staff at the door, âTell the security guards that someone broke into the CEOâs office.â
At this moment, a group of security guards got out of the elevator and went to the CEOâs office.
Since Christopher made such a scene, everyone in Larson Corporation panicked. They thought that something was wrong.
The quiet group chat of the company was full of discussions.
Everyone was talking about what was going on and worrying about their boss.
[Who is the man? How dare he break into the CEOâs office?]
Some of them saw Christopherâs face. [He looks quite handsome though.]
[Yes, I saw him too. He doesnât look like an ordinary man.]
Some of them were making wild guesses. [Is he here to get back at Ms. Larson?] Someone didnât think so. [Ms. Larson is a nice person. She canât have any enemies.]
[Or is he someone who has a crush on Ms. Larson?]
The romantic guess made those female colleagues even more excited.
[Probably. Ms. Larson might have turned him down so he followed her here.]
[Theyâre both pretty and capable. Donât you think they make a perfect couple?]
[Is he the man with the mosaic in the trending news?]
It was beyond Kimberlyâs expectation that the arrogant Christopher would break into her office, making the whole company talk about it.
Feeling pis sed, she waved her hand, telling the security guards and the staff to go back to their work.
âYâall can leave now. Go on with your work.â
Just as Frederick was about to say something, Kimberly knew that he was worried about her, so she interrupted him, âDonât worry. I know what to do. Go back to your work!â
Hearing this, they all left.
Frederick glanced cautiously at Christopher when he left.
There were only Kimberly and Christopher in the office.
Four years ago when they broke up, Christopher didnât show up as they agreed, so they just signed the divorce agreement but never went through all the paperwork.
Kimberly didnât want to waste time on him, so she said, âI think we can go to the court house to finish the divorce procedure when youâre free.â She sounded calm, not at all as humble as she was four years ago.
Unexpectedly, Christopher played dumb. He didnât want a divorce anymore after he saw the three kids.
Therefore, he said deliberately, âOh, you remind me of something. We should get remarried sometime.â
Then he said with an epiphany as if he suddenly realized something, âNo, weâre not divorced yet, so thereâs no paperwork to do.â
Hearing Christopherâs words, Kimberly felt speechless.
She thought, âHow could Christopher have been so shameless in the last four years?â
Kimberly wouldnât be fooled easily, so she repeated word by word, âYou canât be drunk now, right, Mr.
Levine? I may not have made it clear just now. I said we should go to the court house to finish the divorce.â
She stressed every word for fear that he didnât hear her.
And if he kept playing dumb, then he must be doing it on purpose.
Hearing Kimberlyâs serious tone, Christopher felt unhappy, but he knew that it was all because of him.
He was thinking about it carefully.
He could agree to the divorce, but he had a condition.
Christopher played with the lighter in his left hand and held a cigarette in his right hand.
Kimberly was disgusted by his behavior, so she warned him before he lit the cigarette, âSmoking is not allowed in my office.â
Actually, Christopher didnât intend to smoke. He just wanted to play with it so he could have more time to think about where to start.
âIâll agree to divorce you if you insist.â
Kimberly was quite satisfied with what he said. She thought that he wanted to get it done as soon as quickly as much as she did.
However, while she was feeling happy about it, Christopher continued, âBut I have a requirement. The kids have to come back to the Levine manor with me. The Levine familyâs descendants must stay with us.â
Every woman who heard that would lose her temper, but Kimberly looked very calm.
She acted like she was calmly talking business with an important client.
do that? I gave birth to the kids and I raised them. Who âDo you think Iâll allow you to are you to take them away? Itâs no different than a robbery.â
Of course, Christopher knew that she would never agree to his request.
Therefore, he said in a bossy tone, âYou have two options. Stay married to me or let the kids reunite with the Levine family.â
Kimberly saw no point in continuing the conversation.
Kimberly didnât want to talk to him anymore, so she said politely, âIâm sorry, Mr.
Levine. If youâre not here to talk, you can just leave.â
After saying that, Kimberly walked gracefully to the door and gestured to him that it was time for him to leave.
