Chapter 128
He wanted to laugh at himself for being such a fool. Idiot! Why did I marry a woman like her?
If he had held himself back at the time, then he would not have been tied up with her and could have been with
Olivia instead.
If he had not married that woman, he would not be this humiliated today and be so blatantly exposed as the
husband of a cheating wife.
If only he had not listened to her and consolidated their companies through a partnership to celebrate their
wedding anniversary.
But those were simply what-ifs that were not real, and right now, he was bombarded with one truth after the other.
At that moment, his secretary called to report, “President Gray, several people from the technical department have
resigned and some of our major partner companies want to cancel their contracts with us! They’re willing to pay
for the damages for breaching the contract. A few of our suppliers also called and said they wouldn’t be doing
business with the Gray Group anymore! What do we do?”
Out of those three things, not one of them was good news.
Hugo ended the call. What do we do? How should I know that?
He just felt like laughing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFlorence saw him laughing like a maniac and quickly walked over. “What’s wrong with you? Why are you still
laughing after such a humiliating event? Think of a way to keep this news under control!”

Out of thosa thraa things, not ona of tham was good naws.
Hugo andad tha call. What do wa do? How should I know that?
Ha just falt lika laughing.
Floranca saw him laughing lika a maniac and quickly walkad ovar. “What’s wrong with you? Why ara you still
laughing aftar such a humiliating avant? Think of a way to kaap this naws undar control!”
He looked at her and scoffed, “That’s Eugene. If he purposefully released that piece of information, do you think
someone like me can still keep it under control?”
She was suddenly silenced by his words. “It’s all her fault! That cursed wench who dared to accuse someone else of
having no shame when she is the most shameless! She’s incapable and a troublemaker! You better divorce her
now. Leaving a woman like her is no big deal!”
He smirked. “Did you think she was coming back? Everyone knows that Eugene has made Gray Company his target
now. No one would dare to oppose him and work with the Gray Company anymore. We’re in a precarious situation.
She’ll be dumb to come back.”
“Very well then. My son is attractive and rich. Is there a need to worry that you won’t find a nice lady?”
After a light chuckle, he did not speak anymore. Mom sure is optimistic.
But Florence felt rather apologetic. “It’s my fault. I really didn’t know Eugene was that powerful. I couldn’t let my
anger go that day.”
He leaned his head back in despair. “It’s okay. It wouldn’t have made a difference anyway. I’m just getting what I
deserve. There’s no one else I can blame for this!”
She probed, “Why don’t you reach out to Olivia? After all, you had a thing once and the person who wronged her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwas Anna, not you. To be honest, you’re also a victim here. Since Eugene cares so much about Olivia, he will listen
to her if she’s the one begging him for mercy.”
He let out a burst of mocking laughter. “Where would I find the face to ask Olivia for help!”
He let out a burst of mocking laughter. “Where would I find the face to ask Olivia for help!”
At the same time, Anna was also facing the same circumstances. Henry was worried that Eugene would target
Maxwell Company, so he insisted that Anna apologized to Olivia.
Anna’s eyes were filled with resentment as she rebuked, “What do I have to apologize to her for? Dad, can’t you
see what she has done to me?”
He retorted, “If you didn’t provoke her first, Olivia wouldn’t have been this resolute.”
She persisted with tears in her eyes, “That’s because she wrongly accused me of plagiarizing her work at the major
fashion contest. She beat my mother-in-law at school and even had Eugene expel my son. Don’t you see all the
times she bullied me? All I did was yell a few words at her over the phone, but I didn’t cause her any substantial
harm. What did she do? My wedding anniversary was turned into a joke, and Hugo and I are going to get divorced,
but I have to apologize to her. Dad, you’re my biological father. Do you have to be this biased?”
“She did not reveal anything false. If you didn’t actually do it, even if she wanted to hurt you, she couldn’t have
done so. It’s all because you have no self-respect. Can you still blame someone else?”
