Henry glanced at Jennifer. There wasn't an ounce of warmth in his eyes. "You only deserve my schemes."

Jennifer smiled. She seemed resigned as she nodded and said, "Alright, since Mr. Chase wants this to happen, then I shall listen to you."

They had many days ahead of them anyway.

She would have to put in the effort if she wanted to fight for a place in his heart. She had to get used to the feeling of being hurt by him.

Henry ignored her and began to look through his documents.

Jennifer looked at him meaningfully before leaving his office. Then, she returned to her office and collected her belongings. Before she left, she looked around at her office.

Leaving her office wasn't too big of a deal.

She didn't want the title "Leading Counsel of Blue Ocean Group." She wanted the title of "Mrs. Chase" instead.

A few years ago, when Henry had just joined the business industry, he hadn't had any support from his family. He needed inves

The briefing for this project is also quite time-consuming," Henry spoke as he moved his mouse.The big screen in front of them lit up.Natalie looked at his focused expression. Only then did Natalie find it more believable that he meant business. Henry couldn't help but tease Natalie when he saw her still standing there."Why are you standing there unmoving? Don't tell me you want me to talk about our personal affairs instead?"Natalie narrowed her eyes in slight embarrassment. She quickly found the furthest seat from him and sat down. "You can start now."Henry was displeased with her seat choice. He frowned and looked at her. "Out of respect for our cooperation, shouldn't you sit elsewhere?""I'm good here." N

    "What did the doctor say?" Henry began to feel anxious.

    "Sir, please calm down. We've done everything we could to keep the baby alive. Even your wife asked us to prioritize this child. However, your child seemed to have stopped breathing before it was born."The doctor briefly explained the situation.Henry closed his eyes. He looked like he was in pain.Everyone could tell the pain was because of the child."Doctor, what about the mother? How is she?" Natalie couldn't stand it anymore. Thus, she spoke up to ask about Natalie's condition.Everyone would feel bad after losing the child.However, Shirley should also receive everyone's concern and care."She lost a lot of blood, and her body is weak. She'll probably need to stay in the hospital for a few days for monitoring."The doctor paused. His gaze seemed uncomfortable. "Furthermore …""What else?" Natalie quickly asked. She was very concerned about Shirley's condition."This miscarriage has hurt her body greatly. It might be difficult for her to get pregnant again." The doctor

"The important person you're talking about is that girl of yours, right?"Sheldon didn't deny it. Instead, he admitted it generously. "Yes. It's her."Natalie suddenly thought of something due to their conversation."Give me a minute. I want to give you something!" Natalie smiled at him and left his office.Soon, she returned with a small box.Sheldon was perplexed as he looked at her. "What is this?"Natalie didn't explain anything. She merely placed the box before him. "Open it and see!"Sheldon watched her mysterious smile.

    "Was I supposed to introduce myself as your ex-husband when we were in such a position?" Henry turned to look at Natalie meaningfully.He could tell she felt repulsed at the thought of being in a relationship with him.Her repulsion made him feel terrible.There was a time when she would have wanted nothing more but to announce to the world that she was his wife.But now … Her attitude was completely different."Are you telling me you don't think you did anything wrong?" Natalie could hear the underlying meaning in his words.Henry looked straight ahead as he raised his head. He said confidently, "Of course. I didn't do anything wrong."Then, he started the car and drove away.Natalie could not accept his attitude toward the situation. She said unhappily, "Stop the car at the side of the road.
