All Chapters of Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO: Chapter 1231 - Chapter 1240

How had he never noticed before that Daniel was such a two-faced man?Joseph snapped back quickly, “I already said I’m willing to let the past go. But if you want me to truly drop my anger, you’ll have to give me twenty percent of the profits.”“Mr. Hunt, twenty percent is out of the question,” Daniel replied, deliberately toying with him.“Then how much are you willing to give?” Joseph frowned, irritation rising.This time, Daniel had been the one to reach out to him.So, what if he set a few conditions? Wasn’t that only fair?But Daniel’s tone stayed leisurely. “Not only will there be no profit concessions, but I won’t be giving you the project at all.”Joseph’s brows furrowed, but Daniel’s answer came firm and unyielding. “Because I never intended to work with you on this project in the first place.”Anger edged into Joseph’s voice. “Daniel, what exactly do you mean by that?”He didn’t even bother with the formal Mr. Lewis anymore.The patience he’d been feigning collapsed in an in

The difference in strength between men and women was obvious, and with Joseph’s tall frame towering over her, the secretary felt an overwhelming pressure.She thought for a moment that he had forgiven her and was about to thank him.But the next second, his hands clamped around her throat.Her head jerked up, meeting Joseph’s dark, icy eyes. His lips curved into a chilling smile. “So, you’re defying me while pretending obedience, is that it?“Every word I say, you argue back. If you’re that good with words, why didn’t you join a comedy troupe instead of applying here as a mere secretary? Seems like quite a waste of your talent.”“No… I didn’t…”She struggled desperately, her eyes wide, her breathing ragged.It was the first time she had seen the general manager lose his temper like this.In the past, he might smash a few things, but his anger would quickly cool.Now, though, he had turned violent, and terror seized her.“Let me go,” she gasped, clawing at his hands, slapping at his wr

“Of course I’m not joking.” Daniel’s expression turned serious. “Everyone’s time is valuable. I’ve no reason to joke with you over this.”“But the knowledge I’ve learned is no different from hers. Why won’t you give our company a chance, Mr. Lewis?”Tessa still tried to fight for it.She refused to spend her whole life living under Aurora’s shadow.“Miss Walton, don’t press the matter. We’re all adults—let’s preserve some dignity.” Daniel shifted the topic. “I’ve already told you my reason. I truly cannot work with your company.“Miss Walton, you really shouldn’t keep pushing.”With those words, Tessa felt whatever dignity she had left crumble.She never imagined Daniel would be so blunt, showing her no respect at all.So, everything she had worked for—all of it had been for nothing?In the end, even her efforts couldn’t compare to the weight of Aurora’s name.Could her name really hold so much power?Forcing a smile, Tessa said, “All right, Mr. Lewis. I understand. I won’t trouble yo

Tessa looked at her mother in disbelief. “Mom, do you mean you don’t believe what I’m saying?”“It’s not that I don’t believe you, but Aurora has no reason to do such a thing.”Tessa’s face showed grievance. “Fine, if that’s the case, then you can ask Mr. Lewis yourself. “All of this, he told me personally over the phone. Why would I need to lie to you? There’s no benefit in it for me.”Seeing Tessa on the verge of tears, Grace felt that what she said made sense. After all, there was no need for Tessa to deceive her about something like this. Now that Aurora had already left the company, if she truly held the project in her hands and didn’t hand it over to Walton Corporation, it would become a point of criticism among the higher-ups.“Alright, don’t be upset.” Grace rubbed her temples, trying to comfort her. “I understand what you mean, but now that she’s already left the company, I can’t just step in and interfere with her.”No matter what, Aurora had left without taking anything,

So, Megan truly couldn’t bear to see anyone come and disturb her.When Tessa heard Megan say this, she grew restless.“You two may be good friends, but that doesn’t mean you can control everything about Aurora.”Tessa’s sharp words struck straight at Megan’s heart.Grace said nothing, but she also felt that Tessa had a point. Even if Megan and Aurora shared a close bond, Megan was still an outsider, just a friend. Aurora’s life wasn’t something she could fully interfere with, and any decisions should be made by Aurora herself. Megan had no right to be involved.So, her actions now were nothing more than misplaced sentiment.Looking at Grace, who remained silent by her side, Megan felt a wave of desolation. She gave a cold laugh and asked, “So Madam Grace, you think the same way too?”“You’d better just call Aurora out.” Grace looked as if she didn’t want to waste more words. It was clear she agreed with Tessa. After all, Megan and Aurora had no blood relation, while she was Auro
