Semua Bab No Divorce For Us, Mrs. Godfrey: Bab 451 - Bab 460

As the brothers bickered, Jeanette watched helplessly, finding no space to squeeze any word edgewise. She felt like this was how the brothers had always been since she joined the family. She had never seen the two calling a truce, even for a day. Damon never liked his little brother, while Xavier never stopped provoking the former for his own amusement.What a weird pair of siblings.Damon had made his desire obvious, but his brother showed no sign of leaving. Instead, he moaned. “You can’t ev

Warm sunlight poured in from the window. Its golden light looked especially bright but could not melt Jeanette’s nervousness away. The secretary walked in and placed her fresh cup of coffee on the table.“Miss Leighton, Mr. Godfrey ordered this. He knows your tastes. This coffee isn’t bitter, I’ve added sugar.” Damon had personally selected this secretary to assist Jeanette in her work. Anyone approved by Damon would certainly be top-notch.The secretary placed the coffee on the table, allowing its fragrant aroma to waft into the air, placating Jeanette’s nervousness.She calmed down and smiled, feeling a sweetness in her heart.Even though Damon could not really be there at the office to keep her company at work, he would always support her behind the scenes and be with her. Jeanette’s nervousness greatly diminished when she understood this. She felt as if her heart had been filled with strength.She took a deep breath and tried her best to steady her emotions, then lifted her

Xavier put his cutlery down and sighed. “I know, sis. You hate me, just like my brother does. You don’t say it, but deep down, you don’t actually like me. Otherwise, why would you be so reluctant to have a simple meal with me?”“No, Xavier, I’ve never thought of it that way. I don’t…” Jeanette quickly said, guiltily, “I’m just in a rush to get back to the office…”Xavier waved his hand in grief. “You don’t have to comfort me, sis. I know I’ve never been likeable. My parents may act like they treasure me, but deep down, they like my older brother. I’m used to it.”Jeanette felt even more guilty. She suddenly felt as if she had hurt him.“Don’t be like this, Xavier. No one hates you. Oh, alright… I’ll stay here and eat with you until you’re done, okay?” Jeanette compromised, left with no choice.Xavier’s eyes lit up. “Really?”Jeanette nodded helplessly. “Yes, enjoy your meal.”“Oh, this is wonderful, sis. I knew it. You’re the nicest one to me, out of all the Godfreys.” Xavier se

Xavier pouted and acted thoroughly aggrieved. “Are you angry, sis? I just wanted to get you to relax. I didn’t come here to annoy you. I was going to ask you to share the workload with me. I wanted to reduce your burden.”Xavier suddenly switched into a pitiful facade. Jeanette couldn’t bring herself to show her impatience at him. She sighed and replied exasperatedly. “Forget it. There’s no need. You’re not familiar with a lot of things in the company. I can deal with this myself.”“But, sis, this is your first day on the job too. Even if I’m not familiar, I’ll get familiar with it after a while, won’t I? What if Dad asks me what I’ve learned during my time here, and I can’t answer him? That would be embarrassing. What will I tell Dad then?” Xavier asked.Jeanette paused thoughtfully. “Alright. You can help me straighten out these documents.”She pointed at a stack of documents on her desk. “Review the contents in those documents, then give me a summary of the budget. Try to be qui

Jeanette was very unhappy. She didn’t want Xavier taking her to the hospital.That call from this morning was enough to make Damon angry. Then she suddenly had to do overtime and couldn’t visit him at the agreed time. Knowing Damon, he would be furious.Now, if Xavier were to appear, Damon would hit the ceiling.“Hey, Xavier, give me back my bag! I don’t need you to take me to the hospital! Stop!” she cried out with a frown.Xavier, on the other hand, acted as if he didn’t hear her at all. H
