After Divorce, She Married a Billionaire

Eugene left, I stood downstairs of the company and stared blankly for a while. It was almost noon time. I was not hungry, but I felt empty inside.

I went back to the fifteenth floor and as soon as I got off the elevator, I received a text message from the bank on my phone.

It shows that someone transferred 10, 000 yuan from my bank card through Alipay.

I was stunned for a moment. I clearly didn’t make any purchases, but why was there this reminder of deduction?

The only person who knows my password is me…

Yes! And Dean!

I was about to call him in a hurry, but at this moment, another message popped up on my phone, reminding me again that someone had transferred another 10, 000 yuan from my account.

I hurriedly called Dean and he answered the call quickly.

As soon as the call went through, I yelled at him, “Why are you transferring money from my account?”

He answered calmly, “You told me that it would cost 50, 000 yuan to go to the police station to redeem someone.”

I was speechless and said, “Why did you use my money? Dean, you are such a scoundrel!”

He didn’t yell at me, but just explained as a matter of course, “You caused this incident, so you should get the money.”

I sprayed him with a mouthful of salty soda, “Get out! The people in the new house were brought by your mother, and all the troubles were caused by your relatives. What qualifications do you have to take my money! Besides, you already have more than three million in house payment, why are you still thinking about my money!”

Dean took a deep breath and said half-heartedly, “I used most of the money for the house to buy a car, and I invested the rest.”

I sneered, “Invest? What you mean by investment is buying a diamond ring for Jacqueline ? Dean , how can you be so shameless! You used my house payment to buy a diamond ring for that mistress !”

I thought that after saying such things, he would at least feel guilty, but the fact is, I overestimated him.

Dean said as a matter of course: “Because of us, Jacqueline suffered a lot! Buying her a ring is just to appease her! Don’t try to find fault with it. It’s just a ring. Does buying her a ring mean that I’m marrying her?”

“…”

This is probably the most speechless and far-fetched explanation I have ever heard.

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is something wrong with my values or Dean ‘s brain. How could he even say such words!

I was really powerless to deal with him, so I forced myself to use my last bit of patience and warned him, “You must return the money you transferred from my account to me immediately! If you don’t, I will sue you in court!” I took a deep breath and said, ” Dean , you have always disagreed with the divorce, right? Well, if you don’t, I will sue you! I will ruin your reputation!”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

After saying that, I hung up the phone without mercy. After hanging up, I hurriedly changed my Alipay password, including my online banking password.

I was really defeated by Dean ‘s bad behavior. Other people have to guard against fire, theft and friends , but for me, it’s about guarding against fire, theft and husband!

The lost money could not be recovered, so I could only sulk and feel bad about the 20, 000 yuan that was taken away. I told Nancy about it , and Nancy comforted me that she would return the 20, 000 yuan to me when Dean came up with 50, 000 yuan.

Anyway, I won’t let Dean take advantage of me.

Back in Eugene’s office, I was the only one in the huge room. I ordered dessert and takeout, planning to work overtime here all night.

There was a thick stack of French contracts at hand. I translated and proofread them bit by bit. Gradually, the sky darkened.

I looked back at the floor-to-ceiling window behind me. A dazzling orange-red light was sandwiched between the sky and the ground. The light seemed to be flickering and covering my vision.

It was very quiet around me, so quiet that I couldn’t hear anything. I could only smell the minty scent in my nose, which was Eugene ‘s unique fragrance.

I sighed and gulped down a can of coffee. It seemed that I hadn’t drunk coffee since graduation. The last time I drank coffee was the night before the final exam in my senior year.

I vaguely remember that day, Nancy , Lingnan, Dean and I stayed up late in the coffee shop we often go to. Nancy was playing games on her phone, and the three of us were working hard on our homework. That day was the last time we gathered in the coffee shop, and it was also the last time Nancy confessed to Lingnan.

But Ling Nan still rejected her, for no reason.

According to Nancy , she felt very uncomfortable drinking the coffee that day. It was very bitter and astringent.

And the cup in my hand is also very bitter.

After the sun had completely set, I turned on the lights in the office. At this time, the female secretary walked into the room carrying a shopping bag. She put the bag in front of me and said gently, ” Miss Jones , Mr. Johnson just called and asked if you were still there. I told Mr. Johnson that you would have to work overtime tonight, so he asked me to order a meal for you. Mr. Johnson asked me to tell you not to work too hard. If you can’t finish it, just leave it for tomorrow.”

I took the shopping bag, smiled and nodded, “Thank you, I’ll leave when I’m done.”

The secretary left the office, and I opened the shopping bag and looked at the snacks inside. They were all very nutritious, including pumpkin porridge in a plastic bowl, a fresh vegetable salad, and a small portion of medium-rare steak.

It’s really weird. He clearly told me during the day that he would never do anything to me, implying that I should keep my distance. But now, he asked his secretary to buy these meals for me.

I really don’t understand what’s going on in Eugene ‘s mind.

The aroma of food spread to every corner of the room. I was indeed tired and hungry, so I pushed aside the documents on the table and prepared to eat.

But at this moment, a text message suddenly came on the phone, and the sender was actually Eugene .

I clicked on it, and it sounded like he was giving an order, “Remind you, don’t eat in my office, don’t stay in my office for too long, and don’t dirty anything in my room!”

At the end of the text message, he used three exclamation marks to show that he was serious and angry.

I looked around the room, but I didn’t see any cameras or anything like that. How did he know that I was eating in his office…

Never mind. He can’t see it anyway.

After finishing those meals, I worked at my desk for three hours straight before I finally finished sorting out the contracts.

All of them have been translated into Chinese and prepared as electronic documents.

I copied the document into a USB drive, took the USB drive and walked out of the office. It wouldn’t have mattered if I didn’t come out. When I opened the office door, I was instantly scared out of my wits!

Now , there was no one in the office hall, the lights were not on, it was pitch black and deadly silent.

I walked forward feeling the wall, trembling with fear all the way, until I finally found the light switch in the hall.

With a “click”, the switch turned on, and the light in front of my eyes returned to normal. I stood against the wall for a while, relaxing and breathing in and out of my chest.

Actually, I am quite afraid of the dark. It’s not that I’m afraid of the entire day, but I’m afraid of being alone in an empty house in the creepy darkness where there is no sound at all.

There was no one on the entire fifteenth floor, and now it was exactly ten o’clock in the evening.

I walked to the public printing room and started the machine. A rumbling sound suddenly rang in my ears. Fortunately, there was some sound, which made me less scared.

The translated text was coming out of the printer page after page, and it seemed that it was almost completed, but suddenly, the printing room and the entire hall outside were once again plunged into darkness.

The printer stopped moving and everything in front of me was pitch black.

There must be a power outage, there must be a power outage!

In a panic, I rushed to the door, but the moment I pushed it, I found that… the door was locked.
