Running After my Secret Billionaire Ex-Wife by Yoonworks

Chapter 68 

“The Royale is a big deal, Ciara,” his father said, as soon as the Sullivans held a meeting to discuss the proposed project that Ciara would personally handle, knowing she is now sitting as the CEO of the company. 

“Haynes might be the second among us when it comes to sales now, and we are leading but the Royale were like the creators of billionaires. They were the ones who were behind the success of every big business nowadays as they have most of the West and Europe. It would be as easy as getting a trip around the world if you work with them because they would be exporting the transaction all over the world.” 

Ciara nodded. “I am taking it, father. I won’t waste this.” 

Serra smiled. “Oh, I thought you would give way since I heard the Haynes are after them too, specifically the love of your life.” Serra chuckled. 

Louis arched his brow. “Business is business, Ciara. Set aside your feelings.” 

Ciara glared at Serra for a while, then proceeded to make a serious expression as she looked at Louis. 

“I already scheduled a dinner with Mr. Johnson, which was handled by Gwen herself. I might be meeting up with him one of these days to talk about it, Ciara explained. 

“Good. Imagine for how many years the Royale wasn’t giving us some attention, and now that you were the one handling it, they’re suddenly interested. That  might be a maniac who’s obsessed with pretty girls.” 

*Shut up, Chance. Not all men are like you.” Serra cut him off. 

“What? I am just saying. It was so odd how they considered working with Ciara: Chance raised his brow. 

“Let’s give them the benefit of the doubt, Chance. This is a big opportunity not just for our business but for Ciara to explore more in the business industry. Who knows the legacy she would make on her own?” Mrs. Sullivan said. 

“How big are they?” Ciara asked 

All of their faces changed at Ciara’s mere questions as if she asked something that could cure cancer without her knowledge. 

“The Royale consisted of big ambassadors, mostly behind the tradings and real estate. To sum it up, there was this business they funded, which later on made a history of making the man the number one billionaire in the world after that business. That’s their effect, Ciara,” Louis explained. 

“Which means….they’re bigger than the bigger ones!” Ciara concluded 

“They’re the creators. Though they work secretly to avoid some of the businesses flocking right in front of them, mostly they do the offers, Chance explained further. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Though I am already considered a billionaire myself, these kinds of opportunities still weigh a lot, Ciara. If Mr. Johnson would like to work with you, I suggest you take it. That’s actually the secret behind success. We always take what’s offered to us and make the best out of it,” Mr. Sullivan uttered. 

Mrs. Sullivan smiled at her daughter. “I know you are still new in this industry, but you’ve already reached this far, and I’m so proud of you, my dear. Keep soaring high. I know you are doing this not just for yourself but also for Cara. We all root for 

you. 

Ciara smiled as her eyes turned a bit blurry, as she was so touched to hear it coming from her mother. When her family noticed it, they all smiled and started teasing her. 

“Oh, look. The baby is emotional, Chance teased. 

Ciara rolled her eyes and controlled the tears not to fall down as she wiped them off right away. 

“Aww… you have been a tough adult lately, and to see our Ciara being this vulnerable in front of us is really a very rare day.” Serra pointed out as she moved her swivel chair until it bumped against Ciara’s chair as she rested her head against Ciara’s shoulder and hugged her sideways. 

“Are you brokenhearted? That man has done something again.” Chance asked, lifting his brow while he looked at Ciara with full judgment. 

Chapter 

Ciara was so rare to show emotion to them that when she got brokenhearted by Callum and needed to move to Paris, they didn’t see her shed any tears, and they all thought it wasn’t really a big deal. 

But to see her now being emotional so suddenly, they were all thinking it might have something to do with her ongoing love 

life. 

“I thought you two were doing well since Callum looked determined to make it up to you. Even Cara already likes him. What did he do?” Mrs. Sullivan asked as the anger mingled in her words. 

“That asshole, really?” Louis shook his head. 

“No. This isn’t about him. I’m just happy for this that you are all supporting me,” she explained thoroughly. 

Her father smiled. “Why wouldn’t we, Ciara? We will always be there for you. We will always show our support for anything you do 

Ciara nodded as she was kind of emotional about having a conversation with them like she was doing something bad again, and she didn’t expect warm support instead of expressing that they were disappointed in her. 

“If you say 

say that you are going to marry him if he’s making you happy, we will approve it, Ciara, Mr. Sullivan continued. 

Chance rolled his eyes. “The only thing I like here is that he’s making Cara happy, He needs a lot of things to prove it. Say…completely drop that woman out of his life, and I’ll believe him if he prioritizes Ciara now over anyone else.” 

“He’s doing his best, Chance. Let’s cut him some slack,” Mrs. Sullivan said. 

“I am planning to say yes to him if he asks me again,” Ciara admitted this time, as she wanted it to come out of her mouth and they would hear it. 

Serra smiled and squeezed her. “Oh, I could already imagine you in a wedding dress. You would be the prettiest bride for sure.” 

“I’m sure she will be,” Mrs. Sullivan said happily. 

Mr. Sullivan looked at Chance and Louis as he only shrugged, giving them signs that they couldn’t do anything about it anymore since it was now Ciara who decided. 

After the meeting she had with them, Ciara went home until she saw Callum there, who was in the living room with Cara sitting on his lap while she was leaning against his chest as she showed Callum a paper. 

“This is me, you, and Mommy, she heard Cara explaining 

“You have a talent for drawing. You draw it beautifully,” Callum complimented and  Cara’s side of her head. 

When Callum noticed she was already there, including Cara, who immediately went out of Callum’s lap and ran to her, Callum stood as well and walked toward her. 

Ciara smiled at her daughter and crouched a bit to welcome her as she  her cheek. 

“I draw us, mommy! Look!” She showed the paper excitedly. 

“Wow, this is so cute. You should tell Lala to frame this.” 

“Alright!” Cara ran to where Lala was until Ciara was left with Callum 

She coaxed her to go to the patio as she told one of the housemaids to give them some drinks and a dessert she could munch. 

“I heard you were interested in the Royale.” She pointed it out as soon as they sat 

“Oh yes. I have been eyeing it for how many years now? Hopefully, they will answer my request. But maybe it was taking so long since I heard they don’t usually accept proposals. They were the ones who gave some proposals.” 

Ciara nodded. “Yup. That’s what I know too.” 

“Why?” Callum asked, a bit intrigued as he put his hands into his pocket and leaned against the seat. “Are you interested in them too?” 

“Uls, they actually proposed some projects to collaborate with me. Gwen has already assigned a dinner for the both of us to talk about it.” Ciara looked at Callum carefully, as if she were trying to find evidence that would mingle with his reaction.

Callum nodded. “It was you who got the offer. I would be happy to know if you accepted it. That’s a big opportunity, Ciara.” 

Ciara smiled. “My family wants me to pursue it too. I might sign the contract once I read it and work with them.” 

Callum smiled. “I knew you would do well in business. Look at you now.” 

Ciara chuckled a little. I’m still having doubts about myself, but I believe I might do it.” 

“No. You can do it. I could sense it in you. Pursue it. Don’t think about me. I’m really fine without getting an offer from them. Maybe it’s really for you.”
