Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 568 A Quick Apology To Appease Inez

Kieran followed Inez out of the conference room and back to the CEO’s office.

Sensing her foul mood, he refrained from speaking throughout the entire journey.

After entering the office, Inez walked over to her chair, sat down, and turned to Kieran.

She lectured, “Mr. Kieran, it’s a basic requirement to put your phone on silent mode when you’re in a meeting. You-

Before she could finish, Kieran extended his left palm toward her and apologized, “I’m sorry, it was my mistake. There won’t be a next time. If you’re angry, you can punish me with a ruler like last time.”

Inez paused, unable to continue reprimanding him because his sincere attitude rendered her lecture useless.

As she stared at Kieran behaving obediently, her anger dissipated.

“Where did you learn to admit to your mistake right away? It’s so unlike your stubborn self from before.” “Being stubborn doesn’t get you anywhere. If a man has low emotional intelligence, he will be destined to be lonely because he won’t find a wife,” Kieran replied seriously.

Inez stifled a laugh.

During their time together, the more she spent time with him, the more she found him pleasing.

Sometimes she thought he was adorably silly, and other times she admired his earnest pursuit of her.

In truth, she was moved by his persistence in pursuing her for several months. After all, he was Kieran Harris, the second son of Salinsburgh’s wealthiest family and a man known for his aloofness and

arrogance.

As she pondered, Kieran remained obediently standing before her with his left hand extended toward her, ready to receive any punishment.

If he hadn’t admitted his mistake and resorted to stubbornly defending himself, perhaps she would have chosen the simplest and most brutal way to educate her disobedient secretary out of frustration.

However, his upright attitude made it impossible for her to punish him.

At the thought of that, she gently tapped his palm with her hand.

“Considering it’s your first mistake, I’ll deduct a week of your salary. Any objections?”

It was only a week’s salary deductions.
