My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 405:

There had been whispers around the office that Kristopher, who had recently seemed almost human thanks to his improving relationship with Mrs. Norris, had reverted to his usual frosty demeanor. Naturally, tongues wagged, speculating about cracks in their marriage.

Oliver’s voice was calm, like a soothing balm. “Just keep an eye on the clock and make sure dinner isn’t delayed for Mr. and Mrs. Norris.”

“Trust me, their relationship is fine.”

The others, sent back to salvage their work, caught wind of this exchange. A wave of realization swept through them, and they quickly chimed in, voices full of forced cheer. “Thanks for the tip, Oliver. Please remind Mr. Norris to head home early and spend some time with Mrs. Norris. We’ll email the revisions to you directly. Take a look for us, would you? And tomorrow’s coffee is on us.”

With that, they scurried away, grateful to escape the blast radius.
