Became A Queen After divorce

Kate, who was a bit single-minded, thought that Cheyenne was complimenting her.

Her fair round face had two blushes on it, which complemented her big round eyes and made her look innocent and lovely.

“I actually did this for the first time,” she said shyly. “I just attended a training session for a charity yesterday.”

“Really? You did such a good job,” Cheyenne couldn’t bear to discourage her and turned to Reece, sitting across from him in a chair.

“How did you get hurt?” she asked.

Reece sighed with frustration and replied, “Well… I shot an action scene last night that required some martial arts moves. The stunt double happened to be absent, so I had to do it myself.”

“Who knew that my wrist dislocated after just a few moves? The director called for a break so I could wrap it up.”

“But then I accidentally fell down again and hit my hand on one of the prop swords. It’s made of wood but still managed to hurt me.”

“Dislocated your wrist?” Cheyenne lazily stretched out her own tender hand and asked Reece to show it to her.

He obediently stretched out his injured hand.

She looked at the mummy-like bandage around his hand with pursed lips before carefully unwrapping the gauze.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

It turned out that Reece’s so-called injury was just a cut on his index finger, about two centimeters long and with the skin turned over.

It could be easily stitched up.

Cheyenne’s eyes widened as she held his finger and applied some pressure.

“So this is your excuse for tricking me into buying you turkey?”

“Ah ah ah… Cheyenne… I’m sorry, please let go!”

It wasn’t that painful at first, but Reece really felt the pain when she squeezed it like that. He raised his hand in protest. “Cheyenne, it hurts.”

“Hmph!”

“Serves you right!” Kate gloated and made a face at him.

Then she complained to Cheyenne. “I told him it wasn’t serious and we didn’t need to bother you. But he said he wanted something to eat and we were too lazy to go out…”

Okay, Cheyenne got it now. These two foodies teamed up just to trick her. She placed the half turkey wrapped in oil paper on the table and took out a small white porcelain bottle from her bag.

This gourd-shaped bottle was custom-made for her to hold various types of medicinal powders.

Cheyenne handed the bottle to Reece. “Your wound has been treated, and this medicine will help you heal even faster. Apply it twice a day, morning and night, and don’t let it touch water during that time. I guarantee that within three days, you won’t even have a scar.”

Upon hearing this, Reece took the small gourd bottle like a treasure and kissed it fervently. “Thank you, Cheyenne! I knew you were the one who loves me most!”

Kate also wanted one for herself but Cheyenne had no choice but to give her one too.

However, they were actually beauty products that Cheyenne made herself. They could be eaten as candy on regular days as well. They were really just fun things to please girls.

After sitting with Reece in the hospital for a while and finishing off the turkey she brought him, Cheyenne left.

Meanwhile on another side of town, Kelvin walked into his company looking disheveled.

There was an important shareholder meeting scheduled for 10:30 AM this morning but Kelvin was nowhere to be seen.

The atmosphere in the large conference room was tense yet eerie; all shareholders dressed uniformly in black suits sat at their designated seats looking immaculate.

Some of them began whispering amongst themselves with expressions of annoyance etched onto their faces.

Kelvin had been running this company for years without ever being late or absent from work. He always stayed until everyone else had gone home too!

In many ways, he was considered an exemplary workaholic at his company.

Even on his wedding day, he was still working overtime at the office. After finishing work at noon, he took some time to go to church in his groom attire before returning to work after a two-hour break. That evening, he flew directly overseas. The next day, everyone thought he would stay there for a few more days. However, he showed up at the office at 8 o’clock in the morning, looking sharp and ready for work.

When they saw Mr. Foley sitting in his leather chair in the office with his neat outfit on, everyone was shocked and speechless as if they had seen a ghost, because he didn’t look like a newlywed husband in any ways.

But today, Mr. Foley was late for once.

The meeting was scheduled for 10:30 AM, but there was no sign of him when it was almost 11 AM.

Chris anxiously stood by the door watching the closed elevator doors from time to time while occasionally glancing down at his watch.

He thought that after dropping Miss Berry off at the villa earlier, Mr. Foley would take a taxi straight to their company’s headquarters but when Chris arrived there himself, Mr. Foley wasn’t there yet!

Chris retraced his steps back towards where they parted ways earlier but still couldn’t find any trace of Kelvin anywhere! He considered calling him but then remembered that it was always him who carried Kelvin’s phone with him!

“Is Mr. Foley worried about Miss Berry and went back to the villa?” Chris made a phone call to inquire about who was at the villa, and the servant answered that only Miss Berry was there. Mr. Foley had not returned since he left in the morning.

“Mr. Richards, what is Mr. Foley busy with? Should we continue with this meeting?” One of the shareholders couldn’t wait any longer and asked.

“Yes, we’ve been waiting for almost an hour! Shouldn’t we temporarily cancel today’s meeting? I have other things to attend to,” another shareholder chimed in.

“It’s rare for Mr. Foley to be late today!” Some people suggested canceling the meeting while others wanted Kelvin to explain his absence from today’s meeting…

The scene became chaotic like a marketplace as voices grew louder.

Chris had worked for Kelvin for many years and finally learned some of his authority. He scanned around coldly before saying, “Please calm down, shareholders. There must be a reason why Mr. Foley is late.”

“What reason? As a company CEO, he doesn’t even know how to manage time?” A middle-aged man named Cody Berry spoke up; he was one of the company’s largest shareholders at about forty years old.

Cody was also one of the people who initially opposed Kelvin’s appointment as CEO, citing that Kelvin’s major in college was not in business management but rather in computer science. A young man under 20 with no formal professional background and born with a silver spoon, he simply couldn’t handle hardship. But ultimately, Kelvin proved Cody wrong with his abilities.

Back then, the Foley Group was facing bankruptcy crisis and it was this young man whom Kelvin looked down upon that saved the day. He easily recovered the losses and continued to expand the company to where it is today.

But Cody thought that Kelvin’s success was just pure luck. He believed that it was due to an unexpected assistance from an international mysterious hacker named “Mr. X”, who helped save their system together.

What’s even more miraculous is that “Mr. X” didn’t ask for any payment and disappeared without a trace.
