Post-Divorce Chaos My Ex-Husband’s Breakdown

Chapter 18



Nadia knew about the past grievances between Kathleen and Lucille. When she heard Kathleen’s tone, which sounded discouraged instantly, she comforted her hurriedly. “She should be in the Marketing Department, but maybe I am wrong. Even if she is really in the department, she may not be the one responsible for your project. Don’t worry. I just wanted to warn you beforehand.”

Kathleen was

very depressed. “I think you’re probably right. When I called, I was directed to Miss Barron. There are so many Barrons in the world. I never expected it to be Lucille,”

“I doesn’t matter even if it’s her. Trust me.” Nadia comforted Kathleen Tve been to your shopping district and have been paying attention to the policies and recruitment there. As the new central business district of the city, the shopping district will definitely be successfully established. As long as your proposal gets through to Mathew’s hands, he would definitely agree to it. Matthew has an eye for things like this.”

Really!” Kathleen asked and her eyes lit up.

Nadia nodded. “It’s true. The problem now is hour you can get your proposal to Matthew’s hands. Matthew has always hated people pulling strings to get something done. He might not read your proposal if you give it to him directly, but his company has a clear division of work between roles and it’s difficult for you to get your reports to the higher–ups directly. So, if the person in charge of your proposal is really Lucille, and she rejects your proposal directly, I suggest you go to Harrison Logan to have a try. He is Matthew’s special assistant in name, but in fact, he is the second–in- command in the company. Harrison has great authority. His style of work is similar to that of Matthew. As long as your proposal is good enough, there should be no problem.”

“Harrison Logan?” Kathleen didn’t know who Harrison Logan was, nor did she remember anyone of this name.

Nadia said. “I’ll send you a photo of him later. Matthew likes to drink freshly brewed coffee downstairs of his company. He has the habit of drinking coffee at noon to refresh himself instead of taking a rest. So generally, Harrison would go downstairs to buy Matthew coffee when it’s nearly 12 o’clock every day. You can consider coming across Harrison by accident and leaving a document or something behind”

Kathleen said thoughtfully, “You know Matthew very well. You even know his habits at work”

Nadia didn’t know what to say.

late. I’ll go to work first.”

Kathleen said. “Alright, I will stop messing with you. Go and rest. Pregnant women shouldn’t stay up

“Okay.” Nadia nodded. “You should rest more too. Don’t tire yourself out, and don’t think only about coming over to keep me company handle it. Don’t worry!”

I can

to Nadia just now

Kathleen made an “OK” gesture and hung up the phone. She put away the relaxed expression she kept on her face when talking to and put on makeup carefully. Then, she left home and went to Gloraxy Group

Sure enough, the marketing manager responsible for Kathleen’s proposal was Lucille, as Nadia had guessed.

Lucille was clearly stunned when she saw Kathleen. She didn’t expect it to be Kathleen either.

“Hi, it’s been a while.” Kathleen tried her best to greet Lucille with a smile, but her smile looked a little awkward nonetheless.

Lucille glanced at Kathleen coldly and said directly. “We all know what kind of people we are. You don’t have to make things difficult for yourself.”

She really didn’t hold back at all.

Kathleen stopped smiling and said. “You haven’t changed at all after all these years”

Lucille said, “Likewise.”

As she spoke, she sat down opposite Kathleen and reached a hand out to her. “Give me the proposal. I’ll take a look first. If it is worth approving, I would approve it. If it isn’t, so be it. We won’t waste each other’s time.”

Kathleen handed her proposal over directly.

Lucille glanced at it briefly and handed the document back to Kathleen. I’m sorry, your company’s section is still not yet established. We have to consider the return on investment and have to turn it down for the time being”

It was just as Nadia had guessed:

Kathleen didn’t want to waste any more time with Lucille. Thank you”

After that, she put away the documents, stood up, and was about to leave,

Lucille sipped Kathleen. “Wait”

Kathleen named in look at her. “Is there anything else?”

“No.” Lucille stood up too. I thought you would ask me for help. After all, your proposal…”

She glanced at the document in Lucille’s hand, “You must have spent a lot of effort on it

Kathleen forced a smile. “You’re abusing your position to take revenge on me.” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“That’s not it.” Lucille was also straightforward. “I just don’t have high expectations for your shopping district. I don’t think it would be popular in the future. There are so many shopping districts like this across the country, but only a few of them really succeeded.

Kathleen sized Lucille up and said, “With your vision, are you a spy sent from a competitor to destroy Matthew’s company?”

Lucille said, “I’m not that good”

“You’re right” Kathleen was in the mood for chit–chat now. “By the way, how did you get to work here at Gloraxy Group? I heard that it’s very difficult to get in.”

Lucille glanced at her and said, “It just shows that I’m that good.”

Kathleen

seemed to smile. “With your business vision, I thought you must have pulled some strings to get in.”

Lucille choked and asked, “What do you mean?”

Kathleen also said straightforwardly, “Matthew really didn’t arrange for you to get in?”

Lucille asked, “Is this any of your busineur

“Of course it is” Kathleen stopped smiling and stared straight at Lucille. This is related to my best friend’s happiness, How is it not my business?”

Lucille frowned. “Nadiar

That’s right” Kathleen nodded. “Don’t you know? They’ve been married for two years

She saw that Lucille was taken by surprise

Matthew and Nadia were married? Was it because they had been

Kathleen didn’t understand why Lucille was so stunned. Was it simply because Mat married for two years! Or was it because Matthew had lied to her!

Kathleen couldn’t figure it out, and Lucille didn’t tell her anything more,

“What does it have to do with me

replied coldly.

Kathleen observed her expression and chuckled, “It doesn’t. But they just got divorced”

con as she finished speaking, she saw Lucille looking at her in surprise.

As soon as

She was really stunned for not knowing anything.

Kathleen still couldn’t tell if Lucille was stunned because she had broken Nadia and Matthew

But Lucille didn’t give her a

“Forget it.” Kathleen didn’t waste time arguing with her. Thope you didn’t. Otherwise, it would make Matthew look like a scumbag and Nadia look like she has bad taste. It’s better to keep it a secret

“Tin leaving” She waved at Lucille and turned to leave without hesitation

Lucille didn’t call out to stop her

pher again. She stood rooted on the spot.

Kathleen walked to the stairs and glanced at the conference room when she turned the corner. Lucille was lost in thought

Kathleen didn’t know what she was thinking and didn’t care. Nadia had chosen to part with Matthew. They had nothing to do with each other anymore. It was none of her business who Matthew would marry in the future

However, Kathleen still blamed Matthew for no reason. She didn’t understand why he could let go so easily. If he didn’t love Nadia, why did he approach her in the first place!

Because of the resentment in her beat, Kathleen was walking a little too fast. She vented all her resentment in her steps and wasn’t paying attention to the surroundings. When she turned around, the accidentally bumped into a man. With a bang, the documents in her hands fell to the ground.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry” Kalleen apologized repeatedly in a hurry as she looked up. When she ame the handsome face of Matthew she was familiar with, brrapology was cut off immediately.

Harrison, who was behind Matthew, couldn’t help but scold Kathleen, “Hey. What were you doing? Why did you walk straight towards us?

Kathleen was still resentful of Matthew and said grumpily, Didn’t you walk straight towards me too?”

Harrison asked, “We’re walking on the right side. Are you?”

Kathleen didn’t know what to say.

Harrison was angry. “Didn’t you see that we were talking? We were even talking on the phone with our backs to you. Who would have thought that someone would suddenly rush over from behind!”

Kathleen was rendered speechless.

After the call, Matthew put away his phone and glanced at Harrison. “Enough!”

Harrison shut up immediately.

Only then d

did Matthew look at Kathleen,

“Sorry, I didn’t see you.”

Kathleen was not unreasonable. When Matthew apologized in a low and polite voice, she was also a little embarrassed.

“It’s okay. It was my fault”

ogy, Kathleen bent down to pick up the documents

After muttering an apology,

Matthew bent down to pick it up before she did. Without looking at it, he handed them back to Kathleen and said, “I’m sorry.”

Kathleen took them and looked at him. “We were classmates. You don’t have to be so polite.”

Matthew smiled calmly in response. He didn’t care about her deliberate attempt to embarrass him. He still looked cold and distant. Kathleen smiled and said, “You really treat everyone the same. Don’t tell me you’re like this to Nadia too.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she sensed that Matthew’s face grew a little colder.

Standing behind Matthew, Harrison winked at Kathleen hard, begging her not to mention Nadia,

Kathleen looked at him in confusion. Thinking of the proposal in her hands, she thought that she might as well take advantage of the opportunity of bumping into Mathew. So, she handed the proposal to Matthew and said, “By the way, I’m the business manager of Eclipse Development. Our shopping district sincerely invites your company’s hotel brand to join us. Mr. Brock, please take a look at our proposal. We’re really suitable for each other

“I’m not in charge of approving this project. Matthew interrupted her and pushed her documents back to her. “You can try t Marketing Department. They will review your proposal.

After that, he nodded apologetically at Kathleen and walked past her.

Kathleen pursed her lips, let out a long sigh, and muttered to herself, “Nadia was right.”

Matthew stopped in his tracks and seemed to have paused for a moment. He turned to look at her. “What did she say?”

Kathleen was rendered speechless

She looked at Mathew in surprise.

Matthew was still staring at her motionlessly, waiting for her answer.

Kathleen came back to her senses and said, “Oh. She said that you I proposal to you directly”

Matthew glanced at her and his brown eyes fell slowly on the documents in her hands. Then, he reach
