Chapter 4
Pain sliced through Sylvie's chest. Did it matter? His previous words had just made her realize how desperate he was for the divorce. She feared he'd hate her and the baby for wanting to be an obstacle. Turning halfway, she looked at him. It's pointless. We're getting divorced, anyway. Her eyes mirrored the depth of her sadness. And it was more painful that Kage didn't seem to care. She opened the door and left.
Kage's rejection hurt like hell. She'd always known she meant nothing to him. But getting that one act that really proved it stung.
She didn't need his help - she concluded. In thirteen days when the divorce papers arrive, she was going to sign them and move on with her life. She'd take care of her baby alone. She was moody at the office and left for a meeting with Mr. Yuto when it was time, her secretary with her.
Mr. Yuto was an investor. And for weeks Sylvie has been preparing a contract with him. It was a contract that was extremely important and expected to boost their sales in a lot of ways.
She met with him and exchanged pleasantries in the small conference room And afterwards, Sylvie proceeded with the details of the meeting.
"I'm afraid we might have to take a break on the contract, Mrs. Hawkins, Mr. Yuto said to her surprise.
Sylvie's brows were furrowed as she looked up from the file and at him.
"Why, if
"Why, if I may ask?"
"The thing is, My team and I received some Intel that your company's currently battling some legal issues at the moment. First, there is one from a former director, charging you with negligence. Also.." Sylvie itched her nape as he went ahead to list the four legal cases that surrounded them.
How in God's name did he get a hold of such information!? was private!
She forced a smile when he finished talking
"Um.... Mr. Yuto, your concerns are valid. But I need you to know there's a misunderstanding. These legal cases are nothing serious. As a matter of fact, we've sorted two already and about rounding up the third and fourth. They're not going to be an issue, I promise you. Mr. Yuto leaned towards his partner beside him who whispered something to his ear.
"I appreciate your proposal, Mrs. Hawkins, but I think we'll need to get back to you," he told her.
Sylvie's hope was dwindling. God, no.
"Come on, Mr. Yuto. You shouldn't let this changes things."
He rose to his feet. "I'm afraid I have to leave now. Take care
Without considering her offer, he departed with his partners.
Sylvie cursed and thumped the table. God damnit! How could this happen!? Someone must've leaked the information to him. -Someone from the inside.
When she'd managed to gather herself, she left with her secretary. However, Sylvie met a very big shock when she got to the exterior and found Mr. Yuto shaking hands with Lana.
Her brain froze for some seconds as she struggled to comprehend the gesture.
