Chapter 811 As Expected, She Remained Unmoved

Caleb stood at the doorway, wrapped only in a bath towel, as he took the list handed to him.The cool breeze from outside blew in, but he did not feel cold. Instead, it seemed to dissipate the heat from his body.An item worth 20,000 was not worth his effort to look at, but at that moment, he read the document very seriously.Penny stood impatiently, suggesting, "Just take it to your finance department for a check. This amount doesn't require your review, Mr. Fergerson.""20 grand is still money all the same."His eyes were deep and calm, and he did not look up at her while speaking, afraid she might discover something.The draft in the hallway was strong, and Penny sneezed from the cold.Turning slightly, he offered, "Would you like to come in and sit?""No need."Her merciless refusal was followed by an urge. "I'll go back to my room. If you find any errors, just contact me by phone. I've already checked it with Mr. Bauer. There shouldn't be any problems.""Penny."He coul

Chapter 813 What Right Do I Have To Question Her

He got up and walked out, but as he sat in the car and grasped the steering wheel, his hands felt stiff.What right did he have to question her?Just like how he had treated their marriage as a joke and a burden, she must have felt the same. While hiding her true love, she waited for the divorce.Caleb found it ironic when he thought of all the efforts he made to get a divorce, only to realize she was the one eager to leave.His handsome brows furrowed, and his expression darkened ominously.Even so, he endured it and drove back to Kensington Gardens.

She felt somewhat awkward now, not knowing how to respond.Nonetheless, Taliah did not let the awkwardness linger. Knowing there was nothing between Penny and Jackson, she resumed her haughty demeanor."If you want to sign me, you have to show some sincerity. You've seen my acting skills.
