After Divorce, She Married a Billionaire

Be his girlfriend?

If I didn’t know Jackson ‘s carefree personality too well, based on the atmosphere just now, I would definitely blush at what he said.

A loving dinner, dim lights, a timely and sudden confession, and Jackson’s affectionate face.

Everything happened just right, but the only thing that didn’t fit in was the spatula in his hand.

The greasy surface of the shovel flickered in the crystal chandelier above my head, and I couldn’t help but want to laugh.

In front of me, Jackson shook the spatula in his hand and said solemnly again: “Hey! Candice ! You are distracted! I am confessing to you, okay!” He threw me a wink seriously, “How about being my girlfriend? You are about to get divorced anyway.”

Of course I would not fall for his trap. I took two steps forward, grabbed the spatula in his hand, pointed it at him and said, “Why, you want to help me raise the baby? I have another baby in my belly, do you want him to recognize you as the father?”

Jackson paused and thought seriously, “Yeah, you have an unborn baby… that would be a little awkward. I’m not ready to be a father yet.”

I saw him lost in deep thought, so I walked to the kitchen with a spatula in my hand. Suddenly, Jackson called out from behind me, “Hey! How about… you try it with me first? I really want to be with you. If possible, I can also help you raise the baby in your belly!”

Jackson said these words, he was laughing. In fact, I really couldn’t tell whether what he said was true or false. But the only thing I was clear about was that when he confessed to me, I felt ashamed. I thought that I was not qualified to accept the feelings of any single man.

Now I am broken and unworthy of being loved by others.

I stood still, looked back at Jackson , and said, “Stop messing around, I want to rest.”

At this moment, I unexpectedly discovered that Eugene was standing in the gap of the study door . When we looked at each other, he immediately turned around and avoided my sight.

I went back to the kitchen, put down the spatula, and went upstairs.

Jackson , who was wearing an apron, was the only one left in the hall. He made some exaggerated gestures towards me downstairs and said in a low but forceful voice, “Then I will start pursuing you now! Anyway, you haven’t given me a clear answer!”

I smiled and shook my head, and sincerely felt that carefree people are really happy.

The next day when I got up and went downstairs, I wrapped myself in a bathrobe and planned to go to the bathroom on the first floor to wash up. However, as soon as I walked into the hall, I saw Jackson and Kim standing in front of me .

Jackson wore a floral blue tank top and shorts, while Kim was topless and only wore a pair of Superman underwear.

The two persons, one big and one small, stood face to face, with unknown light radiating from each other’s eyes, and they looked very aggressive.

Three full minutes passed as the two of them just stood there facing each other without moving.

Eugene passed by me with a toothbrush in his mouth. I grabbed his arm and asked, “What are they doing? Playing statues?”

Eugene was still asleep. He opened his slightly puffy eyes, looked at the hall, then looked at me, and said, ” Kim learned that Jackson wanted to pursue you, and now he’s making a rebellion.”

“ah?”

Eugene pushed my hand away and sighed to himself, “I don’t know what Jackson sees in you.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

He left, and I took two steps closer to Kim , patted his little butt gently, and said, “Baby, you should wash your face!”

I reached out to hug him and take him away, but Kim pressed my arm hard, fixed her eyes on Jackson , and said, ” Candice is mine! You can’t take her away from me!”

Jackson looked down at Kim with disdain and said, “You look like a bean sprout, and you dare to yell at me! I think you have been led astray by your father. You have an inexplicable sense of superiority!”

I was amazed that Jackson could speak such words to a child so bluntly, and Kim , unable to win the argument, clenched her fists and started hitting the child.

That scene was so intense!

I was afraid that Jackson would go too far and hurt Kim again , so I stepped between the two of them and hugged Kim to protect him.

But who would have thought, when I hugged Kim , Kim put her arms around my neck and kissed me on the face, then she proudly declared her sovereignty to Jackson , “See! Candice mommy let me kiss her! What about you, will Candice mommy let you kiss her?”

I couldn’t help but burst out laughing and turned to look at Jackson . At this moment, he really had a face full of black lines, not to mention how embarrassed he was.

But the cheeky Jackson didn’t stay shy for long. After just a few seconds, he came to me and said pitifully, “Let me kiss you and make this little bean sprout angry!”

I turned my face away and warned him, “Stay away from me! Otherwise, I will beat you up with Kim !”

Jackson continued to attack me, “I’m just going to kiss you! I don’t want a little brat to ride on my head!”

As he said that, Jackson came closer with a pout. I was so disgusted by him that I was about to scream, but suddenly, Eugene appeared behind us. He slapped Jackson on the side of his face and pushed him to the carpet, “Go take a rest!”

Eugene gave the order, Jackson got up angrily. He tried to grab Kim through me and threatened, “Little bean sprout! Wait until I come back to tickle you tonight!”

Eugene and I went out in the morning, he took me directly to the main entrance of the company. I was afraid of being criticized if I was seen, so I covered my head with my windbreaker and ran all the way to the company gate.

I thought that if I ran into the building first, no one would question why I was in the same car with Eugene .

However, before I ran into the hall, someone grabbed my arm violently.

I was startled and took off my windbreaker. I found out that the person was the security guard at the door…

The security guard was also stunned for a moment. “You… what are you doing sneaking around like that? Which department are you from? Are you from our company?”

I was choked by him and couldn’t speak for a moment. I could only smile foolishly and explain that I was a new employee.

At this time, Eugene walked slowly behind me, pulled the back of my collar, and coldly carried me into the hall.

The security guard looked at me in confusion for a long while, his expression was both conflicted and dumbfounded.

After reaching the fifteenth floor and getting off the elevator, Eugene walked towards the printing room. I followed him and saw him stop at the door of the printing room.

I slammed the brakes and nearly hit him.

I thought that after what happened last night, there would be staff to clean up the door of the printing room. But now , things don’t seem to be what I imagined.

There was broken glass all over the floor, A4 printing paper everywhere, and blood faintly visible on the paper.

I swallowed and said behind Eugene , “Well… maybe the staff forgot to clean it up. I’ll come and clean it up later.”

Eugene didn’t move, and behind us, many employees stood up to watch.

Everyone had just started work, and the printing room was so close to the corridor entrance that it was too conspicuous.

I turned around and was about to go to the bathroom to get a broom, but Eugene turned back and ordered, “No need to clean.”

I stood behind him dejectedly and asked, “Why…”

He didn’t answer me, but looked down at his watch leisurely. Just like that, about three minutes passed, and a familiar voice came from the other end of the elevator.

” Mr. Johnson ! You called me!”

Not far away, Jacqueline was walking towards us swayingly, with a standard coquettish smile on her face and her voice was panting and echoing.

Jacqueline stood in front of Eugene and said in a sticky voice, ” Mr. Johnson , why did you come to see me so early in the morning?”

Eugene looked Jacqueline up and down and reminded her, “Didn’t the secretary convey my words?”

Jacqueline deliberately moved closer to Eugene . “Remind me, your secretary told me to wear sportswear instead of a skirt.” She winked at Eugene seductively . “What’s wrong , Mr. Johnson ? Are you afraid that I’ll be cold?”

Eugene didn’t say anything, but he snorted in disdain. He glanced at the printing room in front of him and said, “Clean this up.”

“…”

I think I heard it right. Eugene actually asked Jacqueline to clean the public printing room.

Behind him, the employees were all surprised and began to talk with their mouths covered. The sound gradually engulfed the entire fifteenth floor.

Eugene probably thought it was too noisy, so he turned his head back deliberately. In an instant, the sound behind him disappeared.

Jacqueline looked at Eugene dumbfounded and said, ” Mr. Johnson … it seems that I don’t need to do the office cleaning…”

Eugene turned his head and stared at Jacqueline sharply , reminding her, “If I remember correctly, you were not wearing this outfit last night.” He leaned closer to Jacqueline ‘s ear, “but the red one.”

Suddenly, Jacqueline ‘s face turned pale with shock. She took a step back, looked at Eugene nervously , and then looked at me nervously.

Seeing this, I think I should guess that the person who deliberately locked the door of the printing room and cut off the power supply of the group last night was Jacqueline .

Jacqueline was in a trance for a long time. Suddenly, she said with a stiff laugh, “Ah… I’m trying to lose weight recently, so I should exercise properly. I’ll clean the printing room. I’ll clean it…” She turned around and said to the onlookers, “If you need any help, just tell me! Haha… haha…”

The awkward atmosphere around us became more and more intense. Eugene instructed the secretary at the front desk to prepare cleaning tools for Jacqueline , and then he left without looking back.

At this time, the staff around me left one after another. After they completely left, I walked up to Jacqueline , looked at her and asked, “Did you do that thing last night?”

Jacqueline lowered her voice and said to me with a ferocious face, “Sure, Candice , now you are taking advantage of Eugene ? How did you manage to get him to speak for you?” She looked at me maliciously, “You slept with him?” She smiled, “No way, Mr. Johnson ‘s taste is so unique?”
