Goodbye, Mr. Wrong! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Zachary pulled out a cigarette and lit it, taking a slow drag. Smoke blurred his sharp features for a moment before his face came back into focus. His dark eyes were calm, deep, and unreadable. "Make sure she gets the best deal possible."Harley smirked. "The best? That's not easy. Ms. Jones is too idealistic and naïve for that.""Then put her share under her daughter's name," Zachary said simply."That could work," Harley admitted. "The only question is whether Campbell will agree to it."He knew Jonathan Campbell; everyone in their circle did. The man was known as the handsome CEO with the stunning wife. But no matter how beautiful his wife was, Jonathan still couldn't keep himself from fooling around.Still, in all these years, there had never been any scandal about an illegitimate child. Maybe he really didn't have one, or maybe he was just really good at hiding it.Judging by the look on Selena's face, she clearly had no idea. But that wasn't surprising. She was so trust

Selena looked at Isabella.The woman was as sharp and professional as ever, her expression unreadable. She was cool, precise, and businesslike.Something in Selena's chest ached at that.However, she quickly smiled. "Bella, I know you mean well. But right now, I just don't feel secure. Even if it's just words on paper, this is the kind of reassurance I need. Jonathan, don't you agree?"Jonathan nodded. "I understand what you're saying."Isabella pressed her lips together. "Alright, Mr. Campbell."She went back to reviewing the agreement, raising a few points along the way, but Harley shot down every one of them with ease.When it came to legal matters, Isabella was no match for Harley, who was one of the top attorneys in the city.Despite all his polite talk, Jonathan wasn't as generous as he pretended to be. He was quick to agree to most things, but when it came to his company's shares, he suddenly turned stingy.After some back-and-forth and a few tears from Selena, he fin

After wrapping things up at Campbell Enterprise, Harley returned to his law firm and gave Zachary a call."It's all taken care of. Everything went smoothly. Ms. Jones got exactly what she deserved.""Thanks."Harley raised a brow. "Funny, you're the one thanking me. Shouldn't Ms. Jones be the one saying that? Also, who's covering my legal fees, you or her?""I'll have William handle it.""So you're paying, huh? What are you to Ms. Jones, exactly?"Zachary stayed silent. Harley smirked, but didn't push it. Then, his tone turned playful."You know why things went so smoothly? Guess I underestimated Ms. Jones yesterday. She's not naive at all. Beauty can be a dangerous weapon, and she sure knows how to use it. The way she sweet-talked Jonathan into signing that deal was impressive, to say the least. Let me give you a friendly warning: watch yourself. That sweet smile of hers might end up turning on you next."He laughed. "Actually, judging by how eager you were to help her and

Jonathan's expression faltered for a moment, guilt flashing briefly in his eyes. But just as quickly, his anger returned, sharper and hotter."So you really still want a divorce?""I've wanted it all along."Selena met his gaze head-on, calm and unwavering. That flawless face of hers, which had seemed so gentle and tender just hours ago, now looked hateful to Jonathan. She was so sweet and soft during the day when she coaxed him into signing away nearly half his assets, but she was now cold and distant.Jonathan realized he had really underestimated her. He clenched his jaw, his anger spilling out. "Hah, well-played! You're really something else."Without another word, he got into his car in a huff and drove off.Selena's eyes lowered slightly. The night air was cool, the streetlights casting a shadow of her thin figure across the pavement. She looked lonely, yet somehow radiant.When Selena got home, her phone lit up with a video call from Juliet. She answered right away, w

Jonathan looked at Isabella."You can help me? You're Selena's best friend. What's in it for you?"Why would she turn on her friend to take his side? It didn't make sense to Jonathan. Unless… Isabella wanted something from him.Seeing the suspicion in his eyes, Isabella slowly leaned closer and brushed her fingertips against the back of his hand.Her voice trembled slightly with a hint of nervousness, and her eyes glimmered with soft charm."Actually, I've had feelings for you for a long time."Jonathan raised an eyebrow, but didn't move."It started even before Selena came into the picture."A faint, knowing smile tugged at Jonathan's lips."Really? Then why didn't you say something back then? If you had told me before Selena showed up, maybe things would've turned out differently."A blush spread across Isabella's cheeks. She looked shy, like a girl confessing her first crush."You were way out of my league back then, so I didn't have the confidence. Soon after, you star
