All Chapters of Second Marriage to the Billionaire: Ex-Husband Begs Me Not to Go: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Thinking about attending the meeting at Duncan Industries tomorrow, Aria decided she should explain the situation to Archer, in case their relationship got exposed.She wasn't ready for that revelation yet.Aria walked to the man's study door. Archer was organizing some documents when he looked up to see Aria peeking in with blinking eyes, and his heart seemed to soften at that moment."Come in." As soon as he spoke, Aria had already entered and sat beside him."Something you need to discuss with me?""Well... about tomorrow's meeting at Duncan Industries regarding the West District..." Aria looked at him. "I'm just worried our relationship might be exposed."Archer raised an eyebrow slightly, "So you came to remind me?"That was exactly it.Aria felt rather embarrassed, but the man simply nodded."Understandable."Though he could understand, he still felt somewhat displeased inside.However, he knew that their relationship shouldn't be revealed too early.Aria's eyes curve

Julian rode in the same car as Kent, Aria, and employees from Sophia's company.On the road, Julian somehow found topics to ask Aria which company she worked for or whether she had her own studio. Aria answered honestly, and then Julian began praising Duncan Industries.Julian said, "Our company has excellent benefits—high base salary, high commissions. We have not only year-end bonuses but also mid-year bonuses."Our colleagues are all supportive and friendly—there's absolutely no competition-stealing."Our president is approachable, loves his people, cares for his subordinates, maintains high moral standards, and doesn't get involved in any inappropriate relationships with female employees."Our president is fair and just, helps based on reason not personal connections. Even without background connections, you can still succeed at Duncan Industries."Our president..."Everyone listened to Julian continuously praising how wonderful their president was throughout the journey, wo

Her fingertips curled slightly, gripping his skin, but it felt like gripping a solid wall.Aria had already been kissed senseless when the doorbell rang like a bolt from the blue.The doorbell sound was like a bucket of ice water poured over Aria's head, making her suddenly snap awake. Her hands pushed hard against him, trying to move him away.Archer didn't budge, like a stone wall, so she began struggling incessantly.Her hair and clothes were all disheveled.The doorbell kept ringing incessantly, and Julian's voice came from outside the door, “Mr. Duncan, this is Julian. You asked me to come find you tonight to discuss work."This was exactly the time Archer had arranged with him, so Julian didn't think Archer wasn't there.Archer could have pretended not to be there and continued, but somehow, he surprisingly let Aria go easily.When her feet touched the ground again, knowing she would be unsteady, he supported her waist, catching her just as she was about to stumble.Once

"I do value this business deal, but not to the point where I'd compromise myself with Mr. Duncan for it. That's what you were trying to suggest, wasn't it? Besides, Mr. Duncan didn't achieve his success by mixing business with pleasure. If he awarded contracts based on personal relationships, this deal wouldn't be open to competitive bidding in the first place. He doesn't need to trade business for favors—there are already plenty of women interested in him without me joining the queue."If you had looked carefully last night, you would have noticed Manager Julian was also at the door. No matter how relaxed Mr. Duncan's mood might have been, he certainly wouldn't want his subordinates as an audience." Aria's voice was ice-cold.She and Archer were husband and wife—whatever they did together was between spouses.Moreover, Archer was only giving her a fair chance to compete; he had never guaranteed her the win.If he had predetermined the outcome, why would the rest of them even be he

"Coming here so late at night, what do you want to do?"Archer asked indifferently, his hands casually tucked in his pockets.Sophia was slightly stunned. She knew Archer was good-looking, but being this close, she realized just how exceptionally handsome this man was. Her gaze uncontrollably lingered on him.Sophia's body immediately heated up, nearly going limp against the doorframe as her heart pounded rapidly.Being stared at by Archer like this, her chest couldn't help but rise and fall."Mr. Duncan..." Sophia's face grew redder, her voice taking on a coquettish tone as she shyly glanced at Archer before quickly looking away. "We're all adults here. What I came to see you about—surely you can guess?""Wait here." Archer suddenly said this coolly and turned back into his room.Sophia instinctively followed him in, but after just two steps, Archer suddenly turned back and said coldly, "Wait at the door."Sophia's movement froze, her expression ugly as she found herself unabl
