Chapter 7

作者: Cutie Kitty
Did she really think such a transparent lie would work on Richard?

To everyone's surprise, Sean actually believed her.

His suspicious gaze moved back and forth between me and Henry before he suddenly barked,

“Olivia, I thought the worst of it was that you were jealous and throwing a tantrum. I never imagined you'd stoop to something this despicable!”

Everyone present looked stunned.

The expressions around the room became impossible to describe.

  • Taking Down My CEO Husband   Chapter 10

    As Sean's words became more and more absurd, I couldn't help frowning.“Sean, we're already separated.”Sean waved it off.“Being separated isn't the same as being divorced. We've been together for ten years. We still have plenty of chances to start over.”Because Sean refused to sign the divorce papers, the divorce had yet to be finalized.There was no point arguing further.I pulled out the lawsuit, along with all the videos and messages Ivy sent me.“Sean, these are all evidence of your betrayal. Combined with testimony from Mr. Bennett and the others, they're more than enough to prove our marriage has irretrievably broken down.“The divorce is only a matter of time. Take care of yourself.”With that, I stood and prepared to leave.Sean refused to accept it.He hurried after me and grabbed my arm.“Olivia, nothing ever happened between Ivy and me. She just reminded me of the person you used to be. That's why I couldn't help myself...”I let out a cold laugh.“So if I met a man who r

    On top of that, his reputation within the industry was completely destroyed. Hardly any company was willing to hire him.In the end, he could only scrape by doing odd jobs.Unfortunately, no one knew where Ivy disappeared to. She remained a fugitive.Looking back, I wasn't sure whether I should be grateful that Sean insisted on signing a prenuptial agreement before our marriage. At least none of this affected me financially.Still, wanting to sever all ties with him as quickly as possible, I hired a lawyer and filed for divorce.I assumed that would be the end of it.I never expected our paths to cross again.One morning, just as I arrived at work, I spotted Sean outside my new company's office building.The confident, ambitious man I once knew was gone.He looked hunched over, as though he aged ten years overnight.The moment he saw me, he rushed over with bloodshot eyes.“Olivia, please help me. Just one last time, okay? I know you're close to Mr. Bennett. If you put in a good word f

    Back then, I made a private agreement with Richard to help Sean recover from that difficult period.I promised that if Richard appointed Sean as CEO, I would stay with the company and help turn the branch into its most profitable division.Unfortunately, that achievement ended the same way our marriage did.It came to an abrupt end in the seventh year.“That's all in the past now,” I said calmly. “There's no need to bring it up.”The executive assistant immediately fell silent.Richard glanced at Sean, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.“You’ve turned a perfectly good company into a complete mess!“You allowed employees to form cliques, spread false accusations against their colleagues, and even fired the person most responsible for the company's success!“If anyone deserves to be fired, it's you!”With that, he immediately instructed his assistant to publish an announcement on the company website and internal communication channels.The notice removed Sean from h

I never imagined you'd stoop to something this despicable!”Everyone present looked stunned.The expressions around the room became impossible to describe.I could have sworn the word "embarrassing" was written all over Richard's face.At last, he'd had enough.“That's enough!”Richard cut him off sharply.“You're the CEO of a company. Stop making a spectacle of yourself.”Sean's face instantly flushed red.He opened his mouth to defend himself.But Richard's expression remained cold.“When we first opened this branch, I personally instructed Via to install monitoring software on every company computer.“You're questioning the footage now. Are you suggesting that I'm the one who fabricated the evid

    The moment her name was called out, Ivy exploded.“You—you're lying!”I ignored her.Instead, I walked straight over and handed the flash drive to Richard's executive assistant.The assistant accepted it and plugged it into a laptop.A second later, every action performed on Ivy's computer appeared on the screen.The records showed her repeatedly transferring company funds into a personal bank account over an extended period of time.Then came the altered financial reports.Several figures were quietly changed to conceal the missing money.Silence fell over the room.Even Sean, who was determined to protect Ivy, didn't know what to say.Richard let out a cold laugh.“Ivy, what do you have to say for yourself?”The evidence was right there, yet Ivy still refused to give up. Tears streamed down her face as she cried, “Mr. Bennett, you have to believe me! I've always been loyal to this company. Olivia is framing me!“She has never liked me. She must have known you were coming today, so s

    Ivy watched her chance to replace me slip away once again. The resentment in her eyes was impossible to miss, though her voice remained sweet and innocent.“That's right, Olivia. Sean only spent the night taking care of me out of kindness. Please don't get the wrong idea.”Back then, I attended nine client dinners in three days to secure a major contract.The nonstop drinking landed me in the hospital with a stomach bleed.Sean claimed he was busy with work and never once came to see me.Now Ivy merely had menstrual cramps, and he was worried enough to stay with her all night.It happened every month.Was he planning to take care of her every month too?A laugh nearly escaped me.Even now, when he kept insisting he wouldn't divorce me, I knew it wasn't out of love.For the past ten years, my entire world revolved around him.Whatever he needed, I gave without hesitation.He grew used to my unconditional devotion.That was why he couldn't accept the fact that I was slipping beyond his
