Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 140 She Still Couldn’T Stand The Light

No one knew Nolan’s preferences better than Peyton did. It wasn’t difficult to please him, but the challenge was whether he would give others the chance.

In the past, Peyton prepared dinner countless times and waited for him to eat together. However, even if she waited until midnight, he still didn’t show up.

He was really heartless. No matter what she said or did, she couldn’t see him.

This phone call was her litmus test. Obviously, he was no longer as heartless as before.

After preparing dinner, Peyton took a ride to Nolan’s company.

Peyton held the food box and thought carefully. The mastermind behind the scenes knew everything about them, which indicated that the person was likely around Nolan.

Who would that have been?

Jayson and Lucian were obviously not the masterminds behind the scenes. Olivia was carefree and couldn’t keep a secret. Could the mastermind behind the scenes be an employee of Nolan Company?

Before they got divorced, Peyton had never been to Nolan’s company. At that time, she thought he was protecting her well enough. Looking back now, it was just a joke.

Everyone knew that he was engaged to Helena. News about the two of them was everywhere.

And her identity, didn’t really change. Whether it was in the past or now, she still couldn’t see the light.

She took the CEO elevator to the top floor. At this point, all the employees of the company had already left work.

Only Nolan’s secretary and staff in the office worked overtime with NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

him.

Peyton stopped in front of the door.

Nolan had six secretaries in total, four men and two women. She could generally recognize them.

Peyton looked over and found herself facing the woman sitting at the workstation in the corner. The woman raised her hand and adjusted her glasses. The reflective lenses made it difficult for Peyton to see the woman’s expression.

“Mrs. Dalton, the president’s office is ahead,” Lucian gestured with an invitation.

The people inside were all busy. Peyton couldn’t see much either. In order not to alert anyone, she quickly left.

“Knock, knock, knock.”

There was a knock on the door. A voice, as cold as ice, came from inside, “Come in.”

Lucian opened the door for her and left quietly. The people in the secretary’s office hurriedly greeted him, “Lucian, who is that young -lady?”

After all, Nolan has always been quite disciplined. Apart from his work partners, no other woman has ever appeared quietly at this time.

Lucian reached out and tapped Justin’s head. Among the employees in the secretary’s office, Justin was the most lively.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Did you finish your work?”

Justin touched his forehead and muttered a few words under his breath. Lucian glanced at everyone and said, “Mind your business.”

“Yes, Lucian.”

Everyone’s eyes were full of curiosity. No one dared to comment.

Peyton looked up at Nolan who was working hard. Ironically, she had only come to his office after her divorce.

Nolan seemed immersed in his work and didn’t pay attention to Peyton. Peyton put the food box aside and neatly arranged it.

The sky had already darkened. The city in the distance lit up its lights.

Nolan’s handsome face looked even colder under the fluorescent light, and his jaw was tightly clenched.

He didn’t even look at her. The atmosphere in the room was as silent as death.

Peyton couldn’t read Nolan’s mind and thought that even though she had insulted him that morning, he didn’t lay a hand on her. So, he couldn’t possibly hit her now.

She bravely walked step by step towards Nolan. The closer she got to him, the more she could feel his powerful intimidation.

Even though he didn’t say a word, he still made people feel scared.

Peyton walked up behind him, intending to say a few kind words with patience. When she saw the back of his head, she instinctively picked

up the nearby ashtray.
