All Chapters of I Married a Beautiful Boss After the Breakup: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Eric remained stupefied for a moment, his suspicions about Irvin's position confirmed. He had always thought Irvin was the boss of some company, but to learn that he was the CEO of Sonnex Corp., one of the twin business titans in Salt City, was a shock.Eric remembered sending his resume to Sonnex Corp. after graduating, only to be rejected. Ironically, he ended up working for the same corporation through a serendipitous turn of events.The revelation stirred a whirlwind of emotions and thoughts. Andy's call snapped Eric back to reality. "Eric, hey!""Yeah, I know Mr. Sonnex, and I think that played a role in us getting this project. As for why we were chosen for Williams Corp.... I'm not sure. Maybe we can speculate once we're back in our office."Truth be told, Eric had a theory, a rather insane one. What if Sylvia was the CEO of Williams Corp.? It would explain why Innova Tech landed their project. He hung up the call and returned to the office where Kenny was waiting. To confir

Sylvia's shadow stretched over the pavement, a solitary figure in the embrace of the night. Yet, her beauty remained untouched, and Eric found her back alluring.Eric parked the car and called out to her, but she didn't respond. He had to step out of the car and raise his voice before Sylvia finally glanced back, surprise shadowing her face. "You? I thought you were celebrating your victory with your colleagues."She had read his message and expected him to return much later in the night. Why wouldn't he? It wasn't every day their company secured two projects from the city's major players."I thought a celebratory dinner would suffice. They wanted to go to a club or karaoke, but I'm not fond of those places," Eric replied.That was his nature—direct and sometimes aloof. He had been declining such parties since he started working at Westman Technology."Do you want to go home or continue walking?" he asked, prepared to go home if she chose the latter.Unexpectedly, she replied, "A

"Goddamnit!" David trembled with rage, his anger boiling over. "It's all because of your ex-boyfriend!"Jasmine looked puzzled, her confusion evident. Why did he bring up Eric?David lit a cigarette and grumbled, "I can't believe it! Those two bastards managed to secure two big projects shortly after establishing their company! The projects are worth tens of millions!"Jasmine was shocked. She had heard from David about Eric starting his own company, but to land two projects worth tens of millions so quickly? And now Eric had become a prominent figure in the industry?Jasmine's emotions fluctuated rapidly. She had approached David for financial reasons, but now it seemed that Eric had become wealthier than David. Regret filled Jasmine's heart. She had betrayed Eric because of his financial status, yet he turned out to be more obedient than David.Unaware of Jasmine's inner turmoil, David erupted in anger. "I don't understand! How did a newly established company manage to secure su

Eric entered the parking lot, about to get into his car, when Craig and the woman approached him."Eric," Craig called out, his curiosity evident.Craig viewed Eric as a low-level worker, struggling financially each month. He couldn't understand why Eric was at Sonnex Corp. After all, everyone working there was considered elite.Eric glanced at the woman standing with Craig. She was dressed stylishly and seemed well-off. He had seen them holding hands earlier, and now their presence confirmed it.Regaining his composure, Eric explained, "Mr. Sonnex asked me to retrieve the contract for some modifications."Eric's statement was truthful, but Craig couldn't help but laugh."Eric, what did you just say?" Craig chuckled. "I hope I didn't mishear. You claim that CEO Sonnex personally gave you the contract? Do you even know who the CEO of Sonnex Corp. is? Do you think it's so easy to meet him?"Craig's words were laced with mockery. He wondered why Eric would lie about such a matter.

Eric was taken aback by Irvin's swift actions. When he arrived at Irvin's office, he noticed two files on the desk.Irvin picked them up and approached Eric. "I issued the order yesterday. These are the investigation results. Your brother-in-law, Craig, is a mid-level manager in our company, earning an annual salary of approximately $75,000. The woman seen with him yesterday was Jocelyn Pearce.""Another person from the Pearce family!" Eric couldn't help but blurt out, leaving Irvin puzzled.Irvin raised an eyebrow. "Is there an issue with the Pearce family?"Eric shook his head. "It's not that everyone from the Pearce family has a problem, just certain individuals. My ex-girlfriend had an affair with my ex-boss. We broke up just a month ago. Her last name is Pearce."Sympathy filled Irvin's eyes as he looked at Eric. "I didn't realize you had such a history. No wonder you decided to start your own company."Eric couldn't fully express his grievances, but it seemed that Irvin had
