After Divorce, She Married with a Chaebol Leader It is better than nothing.
After the meeting ended and they left the conference room, Samuel's expression remained grim and forbidding. Unable to restrain himself any longer, he spoke to Bill in a cold voice, "Never mind, no need for Lucas to come.""Tell him to take that peacock he recommended and get lost."Still not entirely appeased, Samuel paused at the door of his office and turned his icy gaze toward Bill.Bill, who had been closely following his boss, quickly came to a halt, standing straight and waiting for Samuel to speak.Samuel's deep-set eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a wintry chill. The oppressive aura around him was enough to send shivers down one's spine.His voice, cold as ice, warned, "If there's another case like this due to poor background checks on staff transfers submitted to me, pack your things and leave, too."Bill responded respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Garcia," but couldn't help feeling wronged inside. How could he have known that the capable CRM department head harbored a crush on his bo

After Kimberly and Samuel finished their hotpot dinner, they returned to their apartment early. The house was tranquil.After changing her shoes, Kimberly glanced into the living room from the entrance."Where is Camila?" she wondered, as it was still early and the house was too quiet.Samuel took her bag and helped her out of her coat at the entrance, then held her hand as they walked further in."She had to go back home for a family matter," he said calmly.Kimberly, noting his natural calmness and recalling Camila's unusual behavior that morning, couldn't help but pull on his arm."Did you say something to Camila?" she asked, looking up at him with bright, glassy eyes. She didn't want to interfere too much but felt compelled to ask.Samuel seemed to understand her thoughts, his eyes flashing briefly before his voice softened to reassure her, "Don't overthink it. Camila's daughter-in-law is about to give birth and needs her, so she took some leave."After a pause, he gently said, "L

Upon entering, she saw Samuel's tall and elegant silhouette reclining in the office chair, dressed in a dark robe. The half-open collar revealed his tightly muscled and pale skin.His obsidian-black, slightly damp hair, from a recent shower, made his skin look dewy and tender, irresistibly alluring without any deliberate care.The robe, loosely tied, was worn with a bone-deep chill, exuding an air of languid nobility.Obviously, she had lingered too long in the bathroom, and he had already showered in the guest room.His sharp-featured face was indifferent and casual, his long fingers impatiently massaging his sharp brow bone, listening to the conversation on the other end.At the sound of her entrance, he looked up at her.Before he could react, she quickly walked over to him.Leaning close to his ear, in a voice meant only for him, she whispered, "You keep busy, I'll just grab a book and leave."Startled by her sudden movement, Samuel's heart skipped a beat."Mr. Garcia?" came the v

Kimberly remained silent momentarily, feeling somewhat caught in a difficult situation.She hadn't expected Samuel to be so adaptable.When she was lost in thought, he had already hung up the phone, removed his headset, and casually thrown it onto the table.He glanced at the Latin book she held in one arm, his long, sharp, cold eyes slightly darkening. His voice was hoarse and pleasant as he asked, "The Bible?""Which part do you want to hear?" he asked in a low voice.Only then did Kimberly realize she was holding a Latin version of the Bible.He had already taken the thick book from her without waiting for her to respond.He put the bothersome book aside.His cool voice became more profound, "In the Old Testament of the Bible, there is a poem that doesn't carry any religious colors. It's devoid of God or deities, speaking only of the girl he loves.""Do you want to hear it?""Mhm."Kimberly felt his wandering hand; her cheeks flushed red, and she casually replied.His warm hand had

Regarding such matters, Samuel was exceptionally enthusiastic and unrestrained.Unlike at the beginning of their relationship, where he made some pretense and at least considered her feelings, now he didn't even bother pretending. From the study to the master bedroom, he was tireless.When Kimberly landed on the spacious and comfortable bed, his long, strong hand grabbed a goose-down pillow beside her head and lifted her slender and delicate body.He placed the soft goose-down pillow under her slender waist.Her clouded consciousness had a moment of clarity...Kimberly turned her eyes away in embarrassment, struggled a bit, and asked softly, "What are you doing?"Her beautiful, watery eyes slightly lifted at the corners, unintentionally brimming with allure and seduction......His narrow, dark eyes stared unblinkingly at her, his throat as if boiling with hot water, and his calm self-control was nowhere to be seen.His cool voice was very suppressed as he said softly, "Don't you want

Kimberly paused as she got out of the car, glancing at Lucas. She didn't feel like talking to him, having never noticed how hard of hearing he was.She had often emphasized not to call her 'Madam,' yet he seemed to turn a deaf ear.As she stepped out of the car, Lucas very perceptively came to help her with her dress.Kimberly did not refuse.Today, she had chosen a champagne-colored long gown, its hem trailing on the ground, adorned with crushed jade and gold, luxurious, and opulent embroidery. The thick gown wrapped around her slender figure.Like a piece of gold-encrusted white jade stripped of its glitz, her movements were graceful and elegant, suitable for an event with many elders present.Lucas respectfully followed behind her, not daring to raise his eyes to the stunningly beautiful woman before him.He always thought Madam was much more beautiful than those other women, not just in appearance. Her family background was second to none, making her the most suitable candidate fo

Kimberly saw the always decisive and firm Grandfather Ling with such an expression for the first time.The air fell into silence.Grandfather Smith asking her to return moved Kimberly deeply, but she knew she could never return to Smith.She spoke unusually calmly, "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I can't be your granddaughter-in-law, but I would be happy to be your granddaughter if you wish."Hearing this, Grandfather Smith was silent for a long time before nodding slightly.He sighed again, "Grandpa respects your wishes. Let that rascal reap what he has sown."Kimberly fell silent and didn't speak further."Alright, your visit today has already made me very happy. Visit this old man more often. That's enough for me," Grandpa Smith changed the subject to lighten the mood.Kimberly followed up on Grandpa Smith's words, "I'll visit you when I have time."Grandpa Smith knew these were just courteous words. A once happy family was now nothing more than strangers. It was a lie if he said he wasn't an

Samuel's face was an ashen blue, his grip on her delicate wrist so tight it seemed like he might crush her bones.She winced in pain but didn't break free from his hold.Realizing he might be reacting too intensely, he loosened his grip on her wrist by an inch.Kimberly finally had room to breathe and clutched his hand in response.Steven's gaze fell on their interlocked hands, his body stiffening. When he looked at her again, his expression was inscrutable.Kimberly gently tugged on Samuel's arm, "Let's go."Steven watched her, standing close to another man, speaking softly.She looked exceptionally beautiful today, her long hair up, revealing her slender, fair neck with its elegant curve.A simple pearl necklace adorned her neck, the pearls' subtle luster making her skin look even more delicate and pale. A shawl of the same color draped over her slender shoulders, her doe eyes lively and captivating.Even without a smile, her slightly upturned eyes exuded charm and elegance, leaving

This time was different from before. Kimberly decisively separated the business dealings between the Smith and Wilson families as clearly as possible.Unexpectedly, he encountered Kimberly at Club in the evening.She was followed by another man, who was carrying her coat. The club manager’s obsequious smile and attentiveness made it clear what that man's profession was.Kimberly, behind his back, had actually hired a male escort. Yes, it was such a slick-looking pretty boy. This realization instantly swept away all his rationality.At that moment, he finally realized how much he cared. Just seeing another man standing beside her filled him with unbearable jealousy, let alone a male escort.What if he hadn’t bumped into them? He didn’t even dare to think about it."Kimberly, there's a limit to being willful!" he warned her sternly.Kimberly showed no guilt or panic; instead, she retorted, "What right do you have to question me?""Because I'm your husband," he replied without thinking.

On the night of the wedding, he deliberately alienated Kimberly and didn't go back. Instead, he went out to drink with Ethan.Right now, he didn't want to see her eyes, red and swollen from crying, looking pitiful.Even drunk, he didn't mention to Ethan why he was acting out of character that day. It would remain a secret buried in his heart, never to be spoken of again.During this period, he thought about repairing his relationship with Kimberly, but his pride and ego wouldn't allow him to grovel. He also feared her hatred if she ever discovered the truth about him taking Samuel's place. So, he threw himself into work, completing in two years what he had promised his grandfather to do in three, with outstanding results.He was promoted to the head of the Smith Corporation's technical department, a position he achieved through tremendous effort.As time passed, rumors and gossip about him inevitably spread in the social circles.At first, he thought of explaining to Kimberly, but the

He thought that would be the end of it.After entering university, he and Kimberly were seen as inseparable by others. He looked forward to them making their relationship official.He waited a long time for Kimberly to confess her feelings, tossing and turning every night, unable to sleep. Could it be that she didn't sense his feelings?Impossible. He had been obvious enough. If he didn't like her, why would he accompany her to study sessions on weekends?If he didn't like her, he wouldn't have bothered choosing elective courses in her major.If he didn't like her, he wouldn't have patiently comforted her during her nightmares.Finally, on the eve of graduation, the day came when Kimberly took the initiative to confess. He admitted it was the happiest day of his life. Before she could finish speaking, he wanted to immediately say, 'I want to be your boyfriend.'But his happiness didn't last long. From her confession, he gradually realized something.She talked about the hand he extend

From that day on, he began to subtly observe his friend's actions.More than once, he had seen Samuel's gaze linger on Kimberly.Today was a big basketball game between schools, and Kimberly couldn't come to watch them play. Samuel seemed normal on the surface, but he was caught several times glancing at the audience, seemingly searching for someone's figure.After the game ended, they headed out of the court.Lucas, who often played basketball with them, made a careless joke, "Why didn't we see Kimberly from Class 7 today? Isn't she the one who always likes to hang around us?"Lucas turned to him and said, "Steve, I've noticed that Kimberly not only looks good but also has a great figure. Why doesn't she join the school cheerleading team? She'd look hot in that outfit."After saying this, Lucas laughed at his own joke, but there was silence all around, and everyone instinctively looked his way.Hearing this, his brows furrowed tightly, "What the hell are you saying?"He was about to

Time swiftly passed, and the high school entrance exams arrived in the midst of summer. He ranked first in his school earning a spot in best private school.At the moment the results came out, what concerned him most was not his own score but hers. He immediately sent her a message to ask about her results. He simply wanted to see if her highly praised 'sea of questions' strategy was effective, and he was eager to see her fail.After repeatedly checking his phone with no reply from her, he grew increasingly frustrated. She had promised to get into the same school as him; had she really failed to qualify?During the final tests, she had only fallen out of the top ten once, so she should have been fine, right?The only message in their chat was the one he had just sent. His patience wore thin. He knew that nerd's method was useless, and she should have listened to him.The tall teenager, clutching his phone, rushed downstairs.Grandpa adored Kimberly, and though it was the best school,

Time flew by, and soon they were facing the high school entrance exams. Kimberly was determined to get into the same school as him.He naturally aimed for the best private school.As the most challenging school in the state, it only admitted the top students from each school. Knowing he was applying there didn't matter much; Kimberly's math was so poor, it was still uncertain if she could get in.However, since deciding to apply to the same school as him, she immersed herself in studying. She was no longer seen in various school activities and even used the short ride to school to review vocabulary, drastically reducing the times she spoke to him.She stopped watching him play basketball and quickly returned to the classroom after a hurried lunch.The girl, who always took care to look pretty, lost that meticulousness. Several times, he saw the faint blue under her usually fair skin, knowing she had stayed up studying.He had told her many times that studying overnight was ineffective

Originally thinking she really couldn't speak, things changed during a year-end performance.He told a fairy tale in front of the whole school, titled "Princess Marlin," chosen randomly from a fairy tale book.After the story, there was thunderous applause. He was satisfied as he left the stage, but unexpectedly, he ran into the little mute girl backstage.His good mood was instantly ruined, and he pushed her away fiercely, "Get lost."To his surprise, she spoke to him for the first time, "Was it you?"He was shocked that she could speak, and her voice was soft and sweet, revealing that she wasn't mute after all.After the initial shock, anger welled up in him. She had ignored him so many times when he tried to talk to her; she had been pretending to be mute all along.This realization made him even angrier."What do you mean, was it you?" She's really an idiot; I don't even understand what she's talking about."You promised to tell me the story of Princess Marlin, why didn't you come

This was Steven's first time accompanying his grandfather to visit the granddaughter of his grandfather's good friend in the hospital.The strong smell of disinfectant permeated the hospital as his grandfather and Grandpa Ruan talked in solemn tones."Is Kim being discharged from the hospital today?" Old Smith asked.Old Wilson didn't speak but nodded, his entire demeanor drained of vitality, looking much older.Seeing this, old Smith sighed, "Life must go on, Kim is still young, you'll need to take care of her more from now on."Steven looked at the little girl sitting on the bed, her skin porcelain white and exceptionally delicate, but her most beautiful eyes were dull and empty. Her long lashes drooped as she kept turning her head to look out the window, seemingly unaware of his grandfather greeting her, showing no manners at all."What did the doctor say about Kim's condition? Shouldn't she stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation?" old Smith sighed, seeing the onc

The crowd around them was packed with people watching the fireworks. The tall and stately figure pulled her into his embrace, discreetly protecting her. As a bunch of pink heart-shaped fireworks bloomed in the sky, the crowd erupted in waves of admiration, "It's a pink heart, wow, so spectacular." "Did you get that? Did you get that? So beautiful!!!" "It's so beautiful, today's fireworks show was worth it." Another loud bang followed, and suddenly someone exclaimed, "There are words!" The giant fireworks that exploded in the sky clearly cast several words against the black canvas of the night. ——Kimberly, Happy New Year After the words twinkled away in the night sky, another 'boom' resounded, and more fireworks burst forth.
