Post-Divorce Chaos My Ex-Husband’s Breakdown

Chapter 17



Kathleen said, “When we were in school, it was rumored that they were a couple. Now, they just so happen to be in the same company, and Matthew even gave her such an important position. I really don’t believe that Matthew doesn’t fancy Lucille.”

“If that’s the case, I might be the one that broke them up,” Nadia said softly. As expected, she managed to stop Kathleen from being angry.

That’s not the case,” Kathleen retorted directly. “No matter what kind of a relationship they were in in the past, when you met Matthew, you were both single and free to get married”

Nadia looked at Kathleen, who was speaking up for her, and felt somewhat happy in her heart.

“Don’t worry, Matthew is not like that,” Nadia said, “He agreed only because we are not right for each other. That’s all”

“Alright” Kathleen couldn’t say anything more. I’m sorry to have brought up what upsets you again.”

Nadia smiled and said, “It’s okay, I’m not that weak, and I was the one who dumped Matthew, wasn’t I

“You’re right. He’s the one who should be crying. He’ll regret it in the future for missing out on a girl so perfect like you,” Kathleen said with a smile. “It’s okay. I’ll take revenge on him for you. After getting Gloraxy, I’ll fly over to keep you and my goddaughter company.

Nadia smiled. “Sure I’ll be waiting for your good news,”

“No problem” Kathleen finally became serious again. “However, you really have to think about whether to keep the child or not. Despite what I said, you’re the mother of the child. You’re the one whose life would be affected, and you are the one who has to take responsibility for the child’s life in the future. You have to think about is carefully.

“The only thing I can tell you is that no matter what decision you make; I will always support you,” Kathleen added. “If you want to give birth to the baby, I will come over to keep you company. I am a certified nutritionist, so 1 should have no problem taking care of a pregnant woman and her baby. You don’t have to worry about my career. My company also has a branch company overseas. As long as I pass the assessment, I can apply for a transfer to the branch company abroad at any time. I only have to make another application later when I want to come back.”

Nadia nodded. “Okay.” NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Take your time to think about it. There’s still time to make a decision. Kathleen glanced at her watch and said. “You should go to bed now. I have to go to work

Nadia nodded, hung up the phone, and turned off the light. She wanted to go to bed, but then remembered the project that Kathleen had mentioned.

She didn’t talk much about work with Kathleen, but she had heard Kathleen complain about her work.

She remembered that Kathleen had been busy with the new shopping district in Eastlake District recently.

Nadia had been to the shopping district once. It was composed of shopping malls and office buildings. The first to seventh floors were a shopping mall. Like other shopping malls, it was also composed of a large supermarket, a shoe and clothing area, a children’s playground, a food court, a sportswear area, and an entertainment area. Kathleen’s company had almost completed recruiting partnering shops. The only problem left was about the floors above the shopping mall. The company planned to recruit a partnering hotel to occupy the floors above the mall. However, as the shopping district was positioned to be a highend shopping district, and the surrounding areas were also the central business area of the city, which belonged to the new development zone planned in Faydol, the company had high requirements for the stars and reputation of the hotel

Gloraxy Group was involved in a wide range of industries, including architecture, real–estate construction, resorts, hotels, entertainment, and more. However, Nadia thought that the only business that could be related to Kathleen was probably the hotel business of the group.

Cloraxy Hotel was a high–end commercial hotel for elites. It was a hotel brand that Matthew had built in person, and placed a heavier emphasis on quality over quantity. Shopping districts had been fighting to collaborate with the hotel for years. The positioning of the hotel was indeed in line with that of Kathleen’s shopping district

However, Kathleen’s shopping district also had a clear disadvantage. After all, it was still under construction. It was still unknown whether the company could successfully build the district in the end. It was a test of the decision–maker’s vision and decisiveness

The hotel project was related to the company’s brand and image, and it was a brand Matthew had built himself. From Nadia’s understanding of Matthew, he should be making the decision himself. The power to make the final decision on this project was still in his hands. However, Matthew was always busy with work. It was impossible for him to handle communications about the project himself from the beginning. Nadia guessed that the Marketing Department should still be responsible for the project.

The Marketing Department.

Nadia remembered seeing Lucille in Matthew’s office the day she went to see Matthew. The badge she was wearing seemed to belong to the Marketing Department

If the project had to go through Lucille…

Nadia thought for a moment and texted Kathleen. [Are you going to discuss inviting Gloraxy Hotel? If so, you may bump into Lucille. She has just joined the company at the beginning of the month and is still new to the company. She hasn’t gained a firm foothold in the company yet, so she will probably focus on some relatively safe projects to prove her ability at this stage. Your project takes too long to return and is too risky. I don’t think Lucille will dare to take the risk to approve it. It’s very likely that she will reject your company directly.]

Kathleen had just finished tidying up. After reading Nadia’s text, she called Nadia back immediately. “Is she also in the Marketing Department?”

If Lucille was responsible for handling the project, Kathleen guessed that she would probably reject her without even looking at her proposal, regardless of investment return and the risk involved in her project. After all, Kathleen had offended Lucille too much in her third year of high school.

At that time. Lucille was the goddess of the class with good grades and a pretty face. She was arrogant and looked down on everyone. Perhaps it was because she was born with a bad character and didn’t like to get too close to others. However, Kathleen was still young and hot–tempered at that time, so she couldn’t help but look down on Lucille and keep annoying her. Later, Nadia was transferred to the school. In addition to looking innocent and pretty, Nadia was also quiet and low–key, which was exactly what the boys liked. In addition, she looked younger than others, so everyone’s attention was slowly transferred from Lucille to Nadia. Kathleen also liked Nadia’s character. Coupled with the fact that Nadia was a low- key genius. Kathleen shamelessly pestered Nadia all the time. Soon, they became best friends. At that time, Kathleen didn’t know if it was because Lucille was jealous that Nadia had stolen the spotlight from her or because Kathleen had provoked her too much, Lucille looked down on Nadia 100, and was very cold towards her.

At that time, Nadia happened to be arranged to sit with Lucille. As a transfer student, Nadia didn’t know much about the rules of the new school, so it was inevitable for her to ask more questions. Lucille always looked indifferent, and would only glance at Nadia lazily and reply coldly after Nadia had asked several times. Kathleen was eager to protect Nadia and couldn’t bear to see Lucille treat Nadia like this, so she spoke out to Lucille even more frequently and never showed Lucille mercy. As a result, the conflict between the two became more intense, and they never spoke to each other again after graduation.

Kathleen didn’t expect that she would be punished for what she had done in high school by being at Lucille’s mercy now.
