Chapter 1234: He's going to come after her.

[PRESENT TIME]

Jonathan huffed and shook his head, clearing his mind of any thoughts of his murder. That death didn't bring him painful memories, but it did fill him with rage. The mere thought of it tempted him to do the same to his ex-wife.

But not now.

It was too soon for him to act. Taunting Finn about it was enough.

"It's been a while since I've had any satisfactory moments in this place," he mumbled, making a hundred copies of the documents Dean had asked him to do. The task was a no-brainer and boring; he knew Dean didn't need a hundred copies of these. It would just waste a few bundles of paper, but not that Jonathan cared.

Just like anything in the world, the long and boring wait for the copies to finish eventually ended. Now, Jonathan had to carry all of them back to his desk, sort them, and staple them. But as he walked back, carrying a mountain of papers, he stopped.

There, standing a few feet away from him, was Dean's personal assistant. The same secretary Jonathan had in the past.

'This woman...' Jonathan thought for a long time. '... betrayed me as well.'

After all, his assistant was knowledgeable about many things. It was why, even with Dean's temper, she had been able to keep her position for so long. In other words, this woman knew that Jonathan was coming home with Nina and a feast of poison. Yet she didn't warn him about it.

Jonathan couldn't help but wonder what else this woman hadn't told him, or what lies she had made him believe. That was why she was on his hit list.

"Studies say it only takes less than ten seconds for a man to fall in love." Suddenly, both Jonathan and Dean's assistant stiffened when they heard Zoren's voice from nearby. They slowly turned their heads and confirmed the person standing just a few steps from them was none other than Zoren Pierson.
