Chapter 16 Secretary–Cum–Wife

Benjamin sat in a first–class seat on the plane. He took out the pair of rings that he had instructed his housekeeper to throw away earlier.

After some hesitation, he took out the bigger ring and put it on.

He had never worn it before. But it fit him perfectly, as if it had been tailored for him.

Over the last three years, he had refused to wear it, insisting that it wasn’t appropriate for

work.

Any other wife would have thrown a tantrum at that.

However, Grace hadn’t. She had been gentle and obedient, indulgent of his every whim.

He had never expected her to leave him so suddenly and determinedly. She hadn’t even taken her wedding ring with her.

Benjamin turned the ring around in his hand, frowning.

Gentle and obedient, or determined. What was she really like?

When the plane touched down at Darai, Benjamin headed to the offices of Donegan Enterprises. Once he reached, he went straight to the president’s office.

Timothy squinted at his computer, then picked up the proposal and checked it again.

Then, he put down the file and said earnestly, “Benjamin, I’ve checked. Hawkins Group is eligible to participate in the expo.”

Benjamin raised an eyebrow. So he was right–Amirate was the one barring them.
