A marriage deal with billionaire stone (Ivy and Silas)

hapter 109: The Courthouse.

Silas locked his phone and placed it on the table, his heart breaking with the realization that fvy wasn't going to reply to his messages. She was still angry, and he couldn't even blame her, she had every reason to be

He picked his bottle of vodka and poured into the glass, feeling tired from a restless night. He had slept in one of his quest rooms, away from Ivy's touch, and with that, and thinking about Thomas, he couldn't sleep well

Thinking about it now, it was really dumb of him to bring Kim home. He could have taken her to a hotel and still provided the same constant support as compensation for her injuries.

"Too late now," he murmured, taking another sip.

There was a knock on his door and he looked up. "Come in"

Mrs Harris entered with a smile. "Good morning Mr Stone. The new candidate is outside."

"Okay," he said flatly, pouring more vodka in his glass.

"Should I ask him to come in now?" Mrs Harris asked.

"Sure."

"Your meeting with Metro Stores has been shifted to next week. The CFO said he tried to reach out to you yesterday, but you weren't available."

"I left my phone here," he said, gesturing to his desk.

His actions from yesterday were still haunting him. The fact that out of fear and haste he had forgotten his phone behind, thereby leaving Ivy's messages

unanswered made the whole situation with Kim more serious than it should have been.

"Alright sir, should I text him for a reschedule or next week is fine?" Mrs Harris asked.

"Next week is fine, just acknowledge the meeting," he told her. "And bring in the new guy."

"Yes sir," Mrs Harris said, before leaving the office.

Shortly after, a man walked in. He was dressed in a blue shirt and black trousers and held a brown envelope. Silas put his bottle and glass away and smiled.

"Please have a seat," he said, gesturing for him to sit opposite his desk.

"Thank you sir," the man said and sat down.

Silas leaned forward. "Introduce yourself."
