Tristan's POV

The shock on his face was enough evidence that he was livid but was merely biting his tongue for the respect he had for my family, or Mr. Lancaster wasn't just a man who resorted to such means.

“Did you not say you are going to listen to me? Then what's it that I'm hearing?” he breathed, his face flushed with anger.

“I said that I'll listen to you, I didn't say I'll do what you want me to do,” I replied, and he gasped.

“What! Alright, are you saying you are not going to let Anasta

    Anastasia's POVI watched as Mr. Stiles exchanged greetings with Tristan, but I still remained seated in shock. How did Tristan get a whiff of this project? Could he be doing this because of me?But I was more concerned about the fact that Tristan Brooke was the investor that Mr. Stiles was talking about, but I didn't realise it earlier…maybe this meeting with him wouldn't have happened.“A legitimate businessman? Has the most cash flow in the country? That was enough clues,” I whispered under my breath, feeling defeated that I didn't catch on after so many clues.I should have known Tristan Brooke was the only businessman with insane cash flow, and was also bold enough to invest in a project that was having such a crisis.“Please, take a seat,” Mr. Stiles indulged, but Tristan left the seat opposite me to sit beside me on the same couch, but I immediately shifted to the end of the couch.“I'm sorry to have kept you waiting,” he apologised, but I rolled my eyes, knowing that apology w

  • Marriage Over; Sign The Divorce Papers, Mr. Brooke    Chapter 60; The Strange Investor With Biggest Cashflow

    Anastasia's POVIt had been a week since the anonymous investor pulled out from the project, and instead of me sending Tristan divorce summons, I was busy looking for potential investors for the project.My firm and workers had been keen on getting investors to collaborate with us, but it had been hard.“The Kendrick Group got back to us,” my assistant said, as she walked into my office, and I looked up with hopeful eyes. “Same thing, they are also sorry, they can't invest in the project.”Immediately she said that, a heavy sigh escaped my mouth. That was the third rejection this month. I had reached out to every influential family I knew due to my circles, but it hadn't been fruitful. I was tempted to ask my father to invest, but I didn't think the Lancaster Group had such huge cash flow to spare in that short time frame, and I wouldn't want my father to run to my rescue every time. Since I decided to build my company without help from family, then I should stick to that.“Then keep

Alright, are you saying you are not going to let Anastasia go regardless? Then don't blame me…”“Mr. Lancaster,” I breathed, as I got up from the chair and looked straight into his eyes, and before he could berate me, I went down on my knees.“You…what are you doing?” He panicked, looking at me, but I didn't budge.“I know I don't deserve your forgiveness, but this is me apologising to you about how arrogant I have been over the years. Please forgive me,” I mumbled, as I bowed my head, and I heard him sigh.“What are you doing? Do you want people to

  • Marriage Over; Sign The Divorce Papers, Mr. Brooke    Chapter 58; Two Crazy Men To Tangle

    Tristan's POV“Tristan Brooke, you have lost your fucking mind!” Kelvin's voice rang from the other end of the phone while I worked on the file in my office, but I didn't mind his choice of words because that perfectly described my state of mind.Crazy.But who wouldn't be crazy when they finally reunited with the wife they had been vying for?“Can you call me another name, Kelvin? I think I have heard you call me a madman a number of times that I can't recall,” I said, and he hissed in frustration.Kelvin had also just found out that I didn't file for the divorce years ago, and he was losing his mind just like everyone else, but they weren't all in the place to get mad about anything... my divorce was Anastasia and my business. They had no right.“That's true. Crazy is not even the word anymore. You are a bloody villain, but that's why you are my friend,” he blurted as he burst into laughter.What now? Was he not angry earlier? It seemed it took two crazy men to tangle.“You wouldn't

  • Marriage Over; Sign The Divorce Papers, Mr. Brooke    Chapter 57; Crazy Boss, Foolish Subordinate.

    Anastasia's POV I sauntered out of the Brooke Group with my face flaring with anger, and I was more than ready to crush anyone in my path. I couldn't believe Tristan could have me wrapped around his finger like this. Not only did he make my life miserable during our marriage, he still wasn't letting me have a way out even when I said I was done. The marriage contract we had clearly stated that he was going to grant me a divorce if I ever asked, but it seemed that was just my wishful thinking. “That scum! Why did I even believe him in the first place?” I mumbled as I reached for my car door, but another hand beat me to it. “You... what are you doing?” I asked, looking at Tristan's assistant, who was holding my car door. “I'm here to drive you back,” he replied, and I looked at him with a strange look. Drive me back? Did he think I was incompetent and couldn't take care of myself? “Why do you need to drive me back?” “Boss said you are angry, and your anger might cause a car acci

  • Marriage Over; Sign The Divorce Papers, Mr. Brooke    Chapter 56; Be Her Father's Live-in Son-in-law

    Anastasia's POVThe tension in the office was so heavy that even the sound of our breathing was too loud to the ear, but my anger and disgust for this man were heavier.How could he have tricked me when he promised to divorce me anytime I asked him? It seemed like his words didn't hold any weight, or because he was no man of any substance.“Why did you trick...” I was saying, but Tristan's assistant walked into the room, breaking the tension.“Do you care for tea or coffee, Mrs. Brooke?” The assistant asked, and my nose flared up in anger.“It's Lancaster...”“Tea, she will be staying for a long time,” he instructed the assistant, and the man left with a bow.“It seems you don't educate your subordinate well. I'm Lancaster now, not Brooke,” I breathed as Tristan walked closer to me, closing the gap between us, but I stepped away, uneasy about the closeness.Or let's say I was too scared to be that close to him.“But we are still married, so you are still a Brooke, but I'll let you ans
