Getting My Ex-wife Back

Raeleigh merely watched as Jepherson laughed until he stopped before she finally talked business with him.

Just as Raeleigh wanted to end the call after the discussion, Jepeherson asked, “What’s her name?”

Stumped, Raeleigh asked back, “What’s who’s name?”

Jepherson looked slightly distracted as he fixed his gaze at Raeleigh as if he would be able to read her mind. However, Raeleigh said nothing. Eventually, he said, “I’ll come over in the next few days once I’m done with my work here. I’ll be bringing Hadrian-”

Knowing what Jepherson was going to say, Raeleigh cut him mid-sentence. “Don’t bring them here. I can’t stand the two of them.”

“Then who can you stand?”

Raeleigh did not answer his question and ended the call instead.

The next second, a knock came at the door. Raeleigh told them to enter, and her secretary came in, saying, “Cindy Lee’s here.”

That female designer.

Raeleigh was truly surprised to learn what kind of person Cindy was, repeatedly causing trouble at her company.

“Don’t we have lawyers? Ask them to handle it.”

“They’re seeing to it, but Cindy is causing a scene downstairs and refuses to leave, saying you forced her to leave.”

Raeleigh asked in surprise, “She said that?”

“Yes.” The secretary gave a solid nod. Raeleigh thought for a moment and said, “See that she doesn’t come up here; I’ll go down.”

“Miss Anson, I’m sure she’s here to stir up trouble deliberately. Why bother yourself with her? We should just call the police.”

Raeleigh’s secretary despised this kind of person the most; give them an inch, and they’ll take a mile. It was Cindy’s fault, yet she blamed others for it. Not only that, she kept coming to cause trouble.

“Please go and tell her I’ll be down in a sec.”

Raeleigh put on a jacket as she spoke. Ever since her hand was injured, she would go out wearing a knee-length puffer jacket as it was difficult for her to put on other types.

After putting on the jacket, she reconsidered, thinking since she wasn’t going ‘out’ out, she removed it and headed downstairs.

Seeing Raeleigh leaving her office, Jared got to his feet and followed her to the elevator. Inside, he commented, “Why are you always so indecisive?”

Raeleigh stood facing the elevator door, never sparing him a glance or even giving him an answer, paying no attention to him as usual.

Finding it dull, he added, “Are all women like this?”

Unruffled, she continued to ignore him. Reaching the lobby, she headed straight to the entrance after exiting the elevator. She could already hear someone shouting at the top of their lungs from afar, and the person shouting was none other than I-don’t-have-a-filter-over-my-mouth Cindy.”

“Raeleigh Osteen is a two-faced liar. She pretended to let me off the hook when she saw her fiancé checking me out. But after he leaves, she makes sure my life is miserable. Can you believe such a shameless woman exists?!”

Cindy said a lot more after that, but the crowd doubted whether what she said was true. One thing was for sure; they thought she was in the wrong. The entire company knew she was jumping ships and wondered what the point of her returning to talk about it right then was.

So be it if you no longer wanted to stay, but every company had its rules. Who did she think she was?

So what if the company filed a compensation bill against you?

As the crowd listened to Cindy’s blabber, Raeleigh emerged from it, looking at the fashionably dressed ex-employee.

Raeleigh got it right then. Cindy must have thought she was a softie and would not do anything to her even if she fought to the end.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Amused, Raeleigh chuckled and said, “Do you think this will change anything, Cindy?”

“Raeleigh Osteen.”

Cindy stood up and confronted Raeleigh, “You are finally here.”

“Why shouldn’t I come out when you’re looking for me? Say it, what do you want?”

Raeleigh wasn’t bothered at all. Although this was an unexpected disaster, there was nothing Cindy could do to turn the situation in her favor, was there?

Seeing a chair, she walked over to it and sat cross-legged. Because she had to be extra careful with her injured hand, she sat leaning to one side, protecting it, added a hint of contempt and arrogance to her.

However, it was precisely that stance that got Cindy’s eyes stinging.

“Raeleigh Osteen, don’t be too arrogant. You want to sue me? Fine, but let’s talk about how you failed your duties during this period. You had let us wait without producing a single work…”

Her gaze downcasted, Raeleigh let Cindy rant at first. Meanwhile, standing behind Raeleigh, Jared fixed his gaze at her calm face with a hint of coldness and arrogance on his handsome face.

In fact, Cindy had already noticed Jared the moment he showed up. She never imagined such a cool and attractive man existed on earth.

What infuriated her the most was that these people always seem to only appear in Raeleigh’s circle. She reeled at what was so good about her.

Cindy was the kind of person who would laugh at others’ misfortune and envy others’ success.

She saw nothing good in Raeleigh and was envious of all she was blessed with.

But she never stopped to think what Raeleigh had and didn’t, didn’t have an ounce to do with her.

Not waiting for Cindy to finish her rant, Raeleigh slowly raised her head and asked, “Just now, you said I promised to let you off the hook?”

“Am I wrong?” Cindy said proudly.

Raeleigh chuckled and said, “I don’t remember promising you anything, but since you said so, I will not sue you as long as you can prove what I said. I will even make an official apology or adhere to any of your requests.”

Cindy scoffed, sensing it was strange Raeleigh was acting differently.

Hearing Raeleigh’s offer, she said immediately, not caring about anything else, “You and your fiancé called me to your office the other day, no?”

“We did.”

“You deliberately had us over and demanded compensation from us for jumping ships in accordance with the labor law, no?” Cindy pressed.

Raeleigh nodded, admitting it as well.

However, she corrected Cindy as well, “I think there’s one thing you’ve mistaken. I never issued a compensation bill to you. However, as an employee of Bloom Aksea Group, the president of Richards Group, and the chairman of Bloom Aksea Group, Jepeherson Richards has the right to ask for some liquidated damages. I never intended to press the matter before he was involved.”

“Before establishing Bloom Aksea Group, I was a contract designer of Richards Group, and I was assigned under Mr. Richards’ supervision. However, just like you all, I did not want to continue to work for my boss anymore. So I understand your feelings very well.”

“It was just that I had to experience all sorts of twists and turns in exchange for my freedom.”

“I have designed more than five cars for Richards Group on my own, including Lanox, Phantasy Dream, Duke…”
