After The Contract Ends, The Ceo Regrets Novels & Stories

The only way to end this drama was by being clear about everything. “I still have one extra week before the contract is over. I… I’m not the type to breach a contract. I refuse to be replaced,” I blurted out. Oh my goddess, this isn’t me. How did I get into this mess? This is so embarrassing. Axel chuckled softly, drawing my attention to him. He slowly got to his feet and walked around the desk, his hands tucked into his pockets. He stopped in front of it and leaned back against it.

“Edward said some firms and potential companies are withdrawing from their contracts. They sent mail that the contract will not be renewed, most of them terminated because of the uprising saga. They believe it will tint their company’s image” It felt like I had a deflated balloon inside of me as he broke the news. My whole body went numb. I knew this was going to become more serious than it seems. “What should I do? Should I apologize to Cole publicly? Why is all this affecting the company? If this continues it will affect the company’s image” I panicked.

Steve stated, surprised by this revelation. “Paragraph four on the third page of the contract states, ‘all proceedings will be conducted when the second party allocates the removal of all unnecessary parties.’ This includes the CEO is no longer needed and will be disbanded from the company with the merger, and there is no reason for the merged companies to have two CEO representatives.” Saline replied, going over the contract, making Steve quickly turn to that page with shock, and then it turned into anger. “This is all your doing? Is this revenge for me leaving you? You two-timing whore! What a low blow from a woman with a bastard for a child growing in you.” Steve erupted on Saline. “Do yo

Miss Elena greeted, taking a seat opposite Leo. “Good afternoon, Miss Elena” Leo answered back almost immediately. Elena pulled out a big file from her handbag and placed it noiselessly on the table before sliding it over to Mr Leo. “Our contract is expired and needs renewal.” Elena added when she saw Leo opening the file. A small frown curved at the right corner of Leo’s mouth. “Our contract terminated many months ago and my personal assistant wasn’t made aware of this?”Mr Leo said feeling paranoid and defiant. “There was a little mix up somewhere” Elena said in a bid of defense for her own company.

“Mom, I don’t even know whether we love each other like that. Maybe he’s pretending. I mean, we’re already more than six months in, I think. I wasn’t really counting the months. And very soon it’ll be one year and our contract will have expired.” “So the contract was for one full year?” “Yeah.” I shrugged. “One year and my contract will be expired and I’ll get my payout f*e and I’ll be out of his life. Possibly out of the company. I’d make some sort of excuse about some divorce and I would leave his life and he would go.”

“You don’t get it, do you? This isn’t just about today. This is about everything. Three years of being ignored. Three years of watching you go off to your fucking ‘meetings,’ while I sit here, hoping you’d give a damn.” He doesn’t answer. He just stares at me, cold and distant, like he always is. Like I’m some annoying inconvenience. I laugh again, but it’s bitter, ugly. “You can leave now, Jaxon. You’ve done your part. I lost the baby. You can go back to your precious company and your precious Scarlett.” He shifts on his feet, like he’s about to say something, but then he just nods. Nods and walks out. Just like that.

Then he pointed at the document on the desk and spoke slowly, one word at a time. “Henry, let me tell you something. What you signed today isn’t a termination notice. “It’s this company’s death sentence!” With that, Mark turned around and walked out, not sparing Henry another glance. A wave of guilt hit me, and I hurried after him. “Mark, don’t do this because of me—” “It wasn’t just for you,” he said, waving his hand. “For myself as well.” He let out a long sigh. “With idiots like that running things, sooner or later, this company will be finished.”

But tonight, something had completely broken loose. I poured myself a drink and stood at the window, trying to locate the version of myself that had once thought any of this was a good idea. The version that had sat across from Victoria in that restaurant, laying out terms while convincing himself he was being strategic and practical—that the end justified the means. But I couldn’t find him anywhere. Instead, I found Victoria. I told her in the living room, keeping it brief because there was no way this conversation needed to be long. “The contract is ending,” I said. “I want to terminate it as soon as possible. I’ll cover any penalties involved.”

I looked at him seriously and was about to yell at him. “Say it straightly.” I strongly ordered him. “I—I can't see it, Sir. I almost searched my place” He said, crying. I cursed loudly as he said. If it's not just millions of contracts included, it wouldn't be a issue for me. But it's big for our investors. And I did everything to deal with them, then just like that it'll suddenly disappear. He's careless because of rage and hot temper I terminated his employment out of work. Even though I know that he is the only one who expected from his family

I don’t know why it made me mad when he stopped; didn’t I just want him to stop? “You see, deny it as much as you like, but you want me.” He smiled, arrogance plastered all over his face. “You wish!” I spurted out angrily and picked up my bag. Why was he messing with my head like that? “Maxwell, this has to stop. Look, whatever we did in the past was solely based on a contract we had, it was just for your pleasure in exchange for the job, but that is all in the past, our deal is over, I don’t care that you made me CEO…”
