Chapter 8

ผู้เขียน: Bright Lights
Once Morgan finished recalling, everyone burst into laughter.

Ella could not help commenting with a chuckle, "He got a girlfriend through his job, and now he thinks the people he poured drinks for are his connections. He's so greedy that it's so funny. We should keep this material for a comedy show or something."

Natalie immediately turned serious, but she still shamelessly refused to leave. She deliberately reached out to hold my hand. "I'm Ian's wife, Mr. Zimmerman."

I immediately broke fre

    "It's been three years. You should have calmed down by now. I've sent Morgan to the branch office. He won't interfere with our relationship anymore."I took a sip of coffee and smiled. "Ms. Ford, I'm here to discuss business, not our relationship. If you're in a bad mood now, we can reschedule. "She suddenly froze, as if not understanding why I was so indifferent.Back then, Natalie could at least read a hint of heartbreak or anger from my tone. Now, I was emotionless, speaking only with courtesy."Ian, don't you love me anymore?" She clenched her fists, looking incredulous.I handed her my old wedding ring. "It's too late to realize that now. I've already sent the divorce petition to your home. The court date is in two days. Don't be late. Three years of separation is enough to be granted a divorce."I ignored her tears and pleas. When it became clear she was not interested in talking business, I left.…Two days later, the judge legally granted Natalie and me a divorce. The

    Morgan's friends had all left.Natalie gave Morgan a look, and he immediately understood and humbly apologized, "Ian, I'm sorry. I should've kept my friends in check and shouldn't have let them make me look better at your expense. It's all my fault. You can hit or scold me as you wish. Please don't involve Ms. Ford."Natalie smiled with satisfaction after hearing Morgan soften his stance. "Morgan just graduated and doesn't know much. He's also honest, which is why I help him more. Although he's not wise, he's good at admitting his mistakes. Forgive him."She casually brushed aside her own mistakes, pushing the blame on Morgan's naivety as a fresh graduate. She always did this and never saw her own faults. She always used others as shields while she stepped in to act as a peacemaker.I had seen this trick so many times that I was completely exhausted.I ignored her and handed the menu to Ella, telling her not to hold back and order some of her favorite dishes.Natalie was livid, a

She deliberately reached out to hold my hand. "I'm Ian's wife, Mr. Zimmerman."I immediately broke free. "The divorce agreement has been signed, and the divorce process is underway. Ms. Ford, behave yourself."Natalie stood still, not knowing what to do. She could only awkwardly smile. "Honey, don't jest in front of Mr. Zimmerman.""Who's jesting with you?" I did not leave any room for Natalie's dignity.Under Jonah's questioning, I told him what had happened these days.He frowned and left. Later, he texted me asking if I wanted him to terminate his collaboration with Natalie.I could not

    "You should apologize to Morgan, hand over your network of contacts to him, and let him handle it. If you do that, I'll restore your position. Otherwise..."Otherwise, Natalie would enter a cold war with me and file for divorce. She did not finish her sentence, but she had always said the same things. Back then, I desperately wanted to beg her to calm down and not divorce. Now... I could not ask for more.I simply smiled and said, "Remember to text me when you go to the courthouse and get the divorce certificate. I'll be waiting for you."Natalie froze before casually hitting me with her bag. "What do you mean? Do you know what you're saying? Morgan has a higher EQ than you and is more suitable for maintaining the partnerships between companies. "Besides, if Morgan hadn't known Mr. Zimmerman, you wouldn't have been able to secure the deal with Mr. Zimmerman. I just wanted you to mentor your junior, but you're threatening me with divorce!"I was threatening her with divorce? She

    One of them joked, "Bro, you've been hiding your girlfriend for four years, and you've finally brought her out. If we hadn't run into you, would we never have met your girlfriend?"Natalie smiled shyly. "I'm busy with work, so I usually don't have much time. Today, just go ahead and order anything you want. I've been eating at this restaurant for three or four years and am their VIP. Just say my name and your meal is on me."Four years ago, Morgan was just a freshman in college.Four years ago, I landed in the hospital several times from drinking to close deals. Natalie always said she was too busy to see me. It turned out she had been busy going on dates.The nights when she said she was busy were probably nights she spent with Morgan.I looked up at the name of the restaurant from a distance—Seafood Broadway. She had never brought me here before.Ella panicked. "Boss, I didn't do this on purpose. I... I just thought the food here tastes good, and it's pretty good value..."Ano

    Natalie fell silent. I was about to hang up when I heard her sob. Then, she added resolutely, "Alright. Since you're so heartless, don't blame me for ignoring you."The call was immediately disconnected.It had been eight years, and Natalie was still using the same solution—giving me the cold shoulder to make me admit my mistake. However, this childish silent treatment would only work on those who truly loved her. It would not work on me anymore.I took a nap and woke up to find that all my team members had been demoted and had their salaries reduced. My phone was flooded with notifications again.This time, my team members did not panic. Instead, they were calm as if they were waiting for the drama to unfold.[No way! Does she really think that going after us can drive a wedge between our boss and us?][The boss is going to take us to better places. Who cares about a loser like her?]I smiled. Natalie was really going to great lengths to make me isolated and helpless. I ignored
