Chapter 87 – Divorced! Now What to Do?

Then, he glanced at the other people in the room. “ We’re all men here.“

All the men in the room remained silent. A chill enveloped her chest.

This group of men were all cowards!

No matter what, she had just secured a deal worth tens of millions of dollars for their company.

Now that the contract was signed, Director Wilson could not just change his mind on a whim.

But they were such cowards that they did not dare say a single word!

She gritted her teeth and sat down again beside him, pouring him a glass of wine. “I don’t think I need to go to the restroom now. Director Wilson, cheers to you.”

Director Wang snorted through his nostrils, “ Alright, after I finish this, will you go to a hotel with me?”

“Sure.”

Bethan smiled and agreed.

Now she could not just flip out and try to storm out, the corridor outside was filled with Director Wilson’s bodyguards, and the men inside the room were all a bunch of useless cowards, she could not rely on any of them.

But if they went to a hotel, then it was a different story.

She had a thousand and one ways to make him kneel and beg her for mercy.

Seeing her agree, Director Wilson let out a bellow of laughter again, “A beauty like you wouldn’t mind my age?”

“Of course not.“

Bethan smiled. “I like older men.“

With that, the door behind her was opened.

Everyone else in the room looked in surprise in the direction of the open door, but none of them dared to say a single word.

However, Bethan and Director Wilson were focused on tricking each other and did not notice the new development behind them at all.

Director Wilson smiled as he drank the wine Bethan handed to him. “Who is more handsome, me or your old lover?“

Bethan rolled her eyes in her mind, this old man was shameless indeed.

She laughed lightly and said, “Of course you’re better looking.“

Her eyes flashed and she thought of a way to scare off the old man.

“Even though I play around with a lot of men, none of them are worth a mention.“

With that, the air in the room turned terrifyingly cold.

But Bethan continued finishing her words as planned. “ Especially the one yesterday, sick and ugly…“

At the entrance, Lucas looked on as his boss’

expression turned darker and darker, finally, when Lucas said he was ‘sick’, he could not take it anymore, hurriedly opening his mouth to remind her of their presence.

“Cough, cough, cough, cough! “

Lucas knew as clear as day what happened last night.

Bethan said to the man last night… was she not saying Brettley was ugly and dirty and sick?

She was dreadfully bold indeed!

Bethan paused slightly when she heard Lucas’ voice. Almost instinctively, she looked in the direction of the voice And met his gaze, one that looked like he wanted to shred her body into a thousand little pieces.

Bethan remained silent. “ ..“ When did he arrive?

Seeing her freeze, Director Wilson frowned and looked in the same direction.

“Mr. Morrison! “

He stood up immediately, strong enough that the chair he was sitting on was knocked to the floor.

But Director Wilson seemed deaf to the noise, he looked at Brettley agitatedly. “I heard you would come to this bar tonight for a business meeting, and I thought I would take a look at you from a distance! I didn’t expect… didn’t expect you would come here! Are you here to see me?“

He was so excited, like a little girl who just met her idol.

Brettley glanced at him in disgust, a sneer on his lips. “I’m not worth a mention.“

With those words, everyone in the room fell silent.

Director Wilson seemed stuck in a confused daze for a few seconds, then thought that Brettley was unhappy because of his poor hospitality.

He hurriedly pulled the chair at the head of the table. “Mr. Morrison, why are you saying that? Who would dare say you’re not worth a mention?“

The cold and haughty man raised a long finger and pointed at Bethan. “Her.“

What crazy stunt was this?

She sucked in a deep breath and looked at Director Wilson, piling a smile on her lips. “Director Wilson, since you have an important guest, I won’t get in your way. Please, enjoy your food, I’ll be leaving now! “

With that, she held her handbag and prepared to make her escape.

Director Wilson glanced at her, even though he was reluctant to, he still nodded, allowing her to leave.

No matter how beautiful she was, she was just a woman, she was nothing compared to Brettley.

Brettley was as important as the sky in Banyan City.

Bethan heaved a sigh of relief, then walked past Brettley and out the door.

The moment she walked past him, his large hand closed around her wrist tightly.

”Where are you going? Why aren’t you continuing? I’m sick and ugly.”

His low voice was as cold as the chilly winter breeze. ”Ms. Bethan, please make yourself clear. What sickness do I have?”

The moment the words left his mouth, the entire room fell silent.

Everyone’s gazes flitted dumbly to Bethan and Brettley.

The meaning behind his words was obvious. Bethan just said the last man she slept with was ugly, dirty, and sick, and Brettley oh-so suddenly asked her what sickness he had…

Director Wilson took a step back in shock. “Mr. Morrison, you… You must be joking, right?“

Everyone in the entire Banyan City knew Brettley Morrison was a clean and upright man, loyal to his ex-wife Bethan Peterson.

When she was still alive, he never attended any drinking events where women were present because he was worried she would get the wrong ideas. After she passed away, he drank so much to the point his stomach bled. Plus, to protect her sister, he remained engaged with Cynthal for many years.

At the birthday party two days ago, he even announced that he got word Bethan Peterson was still alive, so he wanted to break off the engagement with Cynthal and look for Bethan Peterson.

The past few days, the entire internet had been discussing his deep-seated love and loyalty for his ex- wife, yet all of a sudden, this man would admit in front of so many people that he slept with this woman?

Was he sure he was not joking?

“I’m not joking.“ Brettley raised his lips in a faint smile and pulled Bethan into a hug. “I heard someone was trying to make a move on my woman just now?“

His woman.

The moment these two words left his mouth, the air in the entire room exploded.

Everyone looked as if they had just seen a ghost.

They wanted to discuss this piece of news with each other so badly, but they dared not to as they struggled to keep their urge at bay.

The various changes in Director Wilson’s expression were even more fun to watch as it shifted from anger, to confusion, then to horror.

A short moment later, he finally found his voice, “Mr. Morrison, that’s not what I meant… I was just…just cracking a joke with Ms. Bethan…“
