The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce

She had always been obedient and docile in their three years of hidden marriage, watching as he surrounded himself with women and was mired with endless scandals. On the day the subject of his unrequited love returned to the country, she quietly handed him a divorce agreement. “What, you have someone you like?” he asked coldly. She smiled nonchalantly. “Yes. You may not acknowledge me as your wife, but someone will acknowledge me as their lover.” Later, as the Thompson family acknowledged their connection, she became a rich daughter who was out of his reach. As men flocked around her, Michael Gallagher realized that in those three years, she had planted the seeds of love that had now grown into a towering tree, binding him for life.

Chapter 423 - She's Here

In the private room of the Tea House, soothing music flowed through the space like a trickling stream washing over the ears.

"Why hasn't he arrived yet?" Christopher Evans grew increasingly impatient as he waited.

Since several days ago, Scarlett Jackson had been arranging a meeting between him and Zachary Jenkins. From domestic places to abroad, then back to local places, every scheduled meeting had been disrupted by unforeseen circumstances.

Christopher Evans casted a suspicious glance at Scarlett, it could be coincidental for this to happen once or twice. However, the chances of it happening multiple times seemed strangely excessive.

Could Scarlett Jackson be playing him?

Seeing the impatience rising in Christopher Evans, Scarlett was both nervous and upset.

Every meeting ended in a mishap, this was also not something within her control...

"Mr. Evans, Mr. Jenkins assured that he will arrive. Maybe he was held up on his way here," she said.
