Jade narrowed her eyes, looking at me with dangerous warning.
"Are you serious?"
"I advise you to take that back, because you have no right."
I didn't speak, but stood there with utter coldness.
Not seeing me beg for mercy or show regret, Jade's face immediately darkened.
She let go of Jaxon in her arms and stood up, saying with contempt and disdain.
"Fine, since you're asking for it, don't regret it. I'm tired of you anyway."
She said this while looking at the scar on my face.
As soon as she finished speaking, she left with Jaxon. As they passed by me, she raised her chin and looked down on me contemptuously.
"I made you CEO before because you were obedient and my husband. Since you want a divorce, I'll take it back."
"After all, your image will affect the company."
I suddenly raised my head to look at Jade. Seeing that I was starting to get anxious, she smiled brightly.
She left in a good mood, holding Jaxon's waist.
In the silent living room, only I remained, staring at the departing couple with bloodshot eyes.
I didn't even have the strength to struggle. Early the next morning, I returned to the company.
The assistant brought in the divorce papers, and I signed my name without hesitation.The assistant looked at me with sympathetic eyes: "Mr. Langdon, Ms. Shaw is currently in a meeting with the shareholders in the conference room. They're talking about removing you and her taking back control."
I stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, leisurely smoking a cigarette.
After hearing the assistant's report, I had already anticipated this outcome.
Extinguishing the cigarette in my hand, I turned around.
"Let's go!"
"Give her the divorce papers to sign."
As I entered the room with my assistant, Jaxon was twirling Jade in circles, while all the shareholders remained dead silent.
When they saw me come in, they all looked at me with sympathetic, pitying eyes.
Meanwhile, the other two ignored my presence, thinking they had victory in the bag, and celebrated with a kiss.
Jade glanced at me from the corner of her eye, as if to say: This is what happens when you mess with me. Unless you beg for mercy, that is! Who knows, if I'm in a good mood, I might let you off the hook.
"Brent, sorry about this."
"You'll need to clean out your office later and make room for me."
"Jade says she wants me to take your seat."
Jaxon announced to me in an extremely cocky tone as he approached.
I coldly scanned them, took the divorce papers from my assistant's hand, and tossed them in front of Jade."It's come to this. We have nothing left to say. Just sign the papers!"
Jade remained silent, her gaze fixed on the divorce agreement.
"Brent, that's enough."
This woman can't seriously think I'm joking!
"I'm not joking."
