We can’t go on like this anymore. In the previous life, she had a difficult childbirth due to her poor health, so she needs to take good care of her pregnancy.
Just bear with it a little longer, once she gives birth to the child, she will file for divorce.
Evelyn perked up and returned to her workstation.
Then Isabel walked over confidently and said, “Ms. Gomer, Mr. Wilson asked me to take charge of the project.”
Evelyn coldly placed the documents on the table, saying, “Everything is here, you won’t ask me again.”
Thank you, Ms. Gomez did a really thorough job,”
Isabel laughed even more brightly, while Evelyn took several deep breaths to suppress the stifling feeling in her chest.
From that day on, Evelyn began to consciously distance herself from Martin. They lived under the same root, but they never looked up or spoke more than ten sentences to each other every day.
Chapter 4
And so, a month passed coldly and Indifferently,
y after work, Jenny accompanied Evelyn to wait for the elevator and received a message, feeling somewhat surprised.
That day
“Evelyn, today the Star Group’s project signed a contract, they mentioned having a dinner.”
Evelyn’s heart sank, “Is that so?”
She took out her phone, and no one notified her.
She watched silently, expressionless, and then chuckled before putting it into her bag.
Jenny, seeing the situation, exclaimed in surprise, “Didn’t I call you?
ཛ ཧ ཧ ཇ འཌ ན ཥཾ ཏྲྰཾ
Sering Evelyn not saying a word, she immediately got so angry that her nose almost twisted, “I really can’t believe it, you’ve been busy all year, giving credit to others is one thing, but you can’t even have a meal…”
At this moment, there was a “ding” sound
The elevator opened
The place was filled with a crowd, with Martin and Isabel at the forefront.
Jenny’s voice echoed around, “can’t even have a meal, it’s really heartless!”
Everyone looked at each other in surprise.
The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
But it was Isabel who first spoke with a smile, “Ms. Gomez, oh no, you were pregnant, why did you get off work so late?”
Het genuine concern was evident in her expression, but the casual change of address unintentionally grated on Evelyn’s ears, causing her face to tim pale and her body to stagger.
Martin stepped forward, as if to help her.
Evelyn steadied herself and took a step back to avoid it, “Thank you for your concern, I won’t disturb your dinner, I’ll leave first.”
Alter saying that, he turned around and left.
Martin’s expression darkened as he watched Evelyn’s back, which was avoiding him like the plague.
In the evening, Martin came back and neither of them said a word.
The next day.
Evelyn was tidying up the documents when she heard a commotion coming from the entrance of the President’s Office.
She walked to the door in confusion and was surprised to see a crowd gathered around Martin and Isabel, arguing about something.
Walking up to Martin, Evelyn asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
Martin turned his head, about to speak, but was interrupted.
The leading woman shouted angrily, “Here comes another one, Mr. Wilson. Tell me, is she the one in charge, or is she?
While speaking, he pointed at Evelyn and Isabel
Martin suppressed his anger and turned his head towards Evelyn, saying, “It was her, but…”
The conversation was not finished when, in the next second, there was a “crack” sound.
A scorching slap was slapped on Evelyn’s face!
Chapter 5
Everyone was shocked
Evelyn covered her face, her mind went blank, and she only felt a burning sensation on her face.
“How could you be so irresponsible! You actually managed to misspell the name of our company. Do you know how much of a joke
document was released?”
Martin stepped forward and blocked Evelyn, reassuringly saying. “Ms. Howard, calm down, this matter will be explained to you…”
After much effort, these people were finally persuaded to leave.
Evelyn sat in the president’s office, silent.
After a while, Martin finally opened the door and wallord in
“Are you okay?”
Evelyn did not look up as footsteps approached her.
Aure became once the
The next moment, an ice pack appeared in front of her. She pursed her lips and took it, gently applying it to her face, feeling the burning sensation on her face lessen a bit
Evelyn took a deep breath and looked up, asking, “What exactly happened?”
Martin handed over the project proposal and pressed his forehead, saying, “Take a look yourself.”
After flipping through the project proposal, Evelyn’s face immediately darkened as she noticed that the name of the collaborating company had been misspelled by one letter.
Martin’s voice was cold, “This part was Jenny’s responsibility, and she made such a big mess of it, resulting in deductions in this quarter’s performance…
”
Without waiting for him to finish, Evelyn looked up from the report and urgently interrupted, “Who told you? Isabel?”
“Jenny could not have made such a basic mistake. I had checked this part before handing it over to Isabel, and there were no errors.”
Martin glanced at her and said lightly, “She was your friend, don’t favor her.”
Evelyn chuckled, “Who is favoring whom after all? You let Isabel come in and confront me.
Martin said in a low voice, “Evelyn, enough is enough. Business is business, and personal is personal.”
Evelyn clenched her hand and stood up abruptly, staring intensely into Martin’s eyes. “Martin, be honest with yourself, were you really keeping your
personal and professional lives separate? Isabel is just trying to shift the blame, can’t you see that?”
Martin began to grow impudent, “I know what kind of person Isabel is, she wouldn’t do something like this.”
In an instant, Evelyn felt as if her heart had been pierced.
Pain engulfed her entire body, gradually invading like a burning fire, leaving her with nowhere to escape
She tightly clenched her hand, her nails sinking into the flesh, the pain making her alert.
A voice squeezed out from the throat, “Did you believe her no matter what she did?”
Martin looked at her suddenly reddened eyes and inexplicably felt annoyed.
After a long while, he pressed his brow and lowered his voice, “This is just a small matter, you don’t need to argue about it.”
Evelyn couldn’t help but chuckle when she saw the man in front of her, who was unconsciously defending Isabel
There was more bitterness that couldn’t be dispelled in the laughter.
Small matter?
Her face was still in pain, the slap marks Isabel received were still clearly visible on her face, couldn’t he see them? Evelyn felt her whole body enveloped in weakness.
She was tired and didn’t want to argue with him about another woman anymore.
Finally, Evelyn gave Martin a deep look and slammed the door without any nostalgia. Chapter 5
Just as I stepped out, I bumped into Isabel.
She smiled for a moment, unaffected at all, and warmly greeted, “Ms. Gomez
But Evelyn had already seen the meanness beneath her smile and ignored her cold departure.
Evening
Martin finished his work and didn’t get home until 11 o’clock.
As soon as the door was opened, Evelyn was seen sitting at the dining table, and to my surprise, the table was filled with his favorite dishes. He was startled, “What is this?”
“Back already? Please have a seat,” Evelyn said calmly.
Martin took big steps forward and, with the help of the light, discovered something different.
Evelyn painted her delicate makeup and wore brand new clothes, a scene that be only remembered happening on their wedding night…
Martin hesitated and furrowed his brow as he sat down, “What are you doing?”
Evelyn said, “Let’s eat”
Martin, however, did not pick up his fork, “I have already eaten…”
Halfway through the conversation, Evelyn interrupted abruptly, “No, you had to eat.”
Martin’s heart sank inexplicably, and he looked at her with deep and profound eyes. Evelyn smiled and a surge of unknown emotions and relief welled up in her eyes. “Martin, after we finished this farewell dinner, let’s get divorced.”
Chapter 6
As soon as the words fell, the room fell into silence.
Martin frowned for a moment, feeling a bit annoyed, and pressed his brow, “Don’t joke with me.
Joke?
Evelyn gazed at the handsome man in front of her for a long time, her heart filled w
bitterness.
She had been his secretary for five years and was familiar with his every move
She remembered the despair of that drunken night, as well as the sincerity of his proposal and the smile on their child’s face when they were born in a past life.
Every little thing made her believe that their marriage
ge was al
a little bit of love.
Until Isabel’s appearance,
all her fantasies were shattered…..
Evelyn’s eyes turned red, and an inexplicable sadness engulfed her entire body. A surge of unwillingness washed over her as she suddenly asked.
“Martin, do you know that I liked you?”
Martin was stunned.
He stared straight into Evelyn’s red eyes, and after a while, he averted his gaze and said lightly, “Il 1 had known about this, I wouldn’t have married you.”
My heart felt as if it had been forcefully hollowed out, and the intense pain spread.
Getting the expected answer, Evelyn could no longer hold her composure and a tear welled up in her eyes.
The woman’s despair, with tears in her eyes,
was so intense that it almost drowned her.
Martin hesitated for a moment. The unfamiliar affection made him want to avoid it
“I had something else to do, you rest well.”
Saying that, he stood up and was about to leave.
Seeing that he wanted to leave, Evelyn took a step forward and grabbed him, stubbornly wanting an answer.
“You told me, when you proposed to me, you really didn’t have the slightest liking for me?”
Martin lowered his gaze and cruelly pulled away, ignoring her tightly clenched hand.
“You were still pregnant, so think carefully about the divorce.”
