Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 758

I looked at Oliver apologetically and whispered, "I'm sorry, Mr. Oliver. Don't blame her. She was just insulted because of this moments ago. Of course she’s upset."

Oliver nodded with a heavy heart, still looking after the car that had sped away. "There’s no need to apologize. It's not your fault, it’s mine. Thank you for taking care of her."

I sighed. "You don’t need to thank me. After all, she got hurt because of me. I'm heading back to the company now."

Throughout our conversation, Oliver's eyes remained fixed forlornly on the road, even after the car had disappeared.

As Carol and I got into the car, she remarked, "Lauren really doesn’t care about anything, huh? No matter what he’s done, he’s still one of the big shots of Foswood. Anyone would respect him because of that, but look at how she spoke to him.”

I sighed softly. "What's done is done."

Carol sighed too. "You can tell that Oliver really cares about Lauren.”

"The more he cares about her, the more it hurts.”

When we returned to the company, an unexpected guest was waiting for me.

It was the popular movie star, Poppy. She stood up to greet me as soon as she saw me coming out of the elevator. "I didn't expect you to be so busy, Ms. Chloe. I've been waiting for you for quite a while."

Carol was surprised and muttered softly, "What's going on? Why is a famous celebrity here?”

I figured I should treat her as a guest, so I greeted her with a smile. "I’m sorry for the wait, Ms. Poppy. I was just out handling some business."

Then I turned around and looked at Carol meaningfully. "Bring us two cups of coffee, and reschedule my meeting to an hour later."

Carol immediately understood and went to prepare our coffee.

I invited Poppy into my office politely. "Please have a seat, Ms. Poppy."
