Divorce Clock Ticking (Kenneth and Angela) novel Chapter 76

Jennifer said, "Mom, it's okay. You already broke ties with Angela at the press conference. Angela must still be furious. Let me handle this."

When Jennifer mentioned this, Karen was instantly enraged. "You're right! From now on, I'll no longer recognize her as my daughter!"

At nine o'clock in the evening, Angela and Kenneth returned to the villa.

She took off the necklace and handed it to Kenneth. "Thank you for tonight."

Kenneth's expression suddenly turned cold as he looked at her. "Keep it. You've already worn this necklace. I can't give it to anyone else now."

Angela thought about it and said, "How much is it? I'll pay you."

"Do you really need to be so distant with me?!"

Sensing Kenneth's anger, Angela pressed her lips. "Mr. Sinclair, if I don't do this, our relationship will blur."

Angela felt that since they were destined to part ways soon, she didn't want to get entangled with him anymore.

She spoke indifferently. "I'm very tired, and I'm going back to my room. You should rest early too, Mr. Sinclair."

Back in her bedroom, Angela searched for the price of the necklace. Kenneth had bought it at an auction, so she quickly found the price.

When she saw the price, Angela immediately wanted to take back what she said earlier.

It was worth 200 million dollars!

She was shocked that such a small stone was worth so much money!

Because of it, Angela had insomnia that night. She had a headache all night and couldn't figure out how to come up with 200 million dollars.

She would never have worn the necklace if she had known Kenneth had bought it for such a high price!

The next morning, Angela walked out of her bedroom with dark circles under her eyes.

Then, they ate breakfast in silence and left for work separately.

Just arriving at the company, Angela saw the reception area filled with flowers, with people buzzing around.

"Wow, who sent these to his girlfriend? So extravagant, I'm so jealous!"

"Is there even space for so many flowers? I think this guy is just showing off!"

"It's none of your business. If you were rich, you could do the same!"

Angela glanced at them and was about to take the elevator when she saw Brenda hurrying towards the reception.

Brenda said, "Throw all these flowers away. From now on, if anyone sends me flowers, just toss them out!"

Angela was surprised that these flowers were from Brenda's admirer.

After giving instructions, Brenda turned, saw Angela, and quickly walked towards her.

Brenda said, "Angie, let's go up together."

Brenda pulled Angela into the elevator reserved for the company's management. Once the doors closed, Angela said teasingly, "Which admirer sent you these flowers?"

Brenda's face darkened, and she said irritably, "Henry, that nutcase? He called me last night, drunk. He apologized to me, planning to make it up to me. I thought he was just talking nonsense, but this morning he sent a truckload of flowers. He's simply out of his mind!"

Angela frowned, "Is he trying to pursue you again?"

"Who knows, but I'll never get back with him. I'm done with jerks!"

Seeing Brenda's determined look, Angela smiled, "He must've been hurt by Debra recently."

Brenda scoffed, "I don't want to get involved in their mess. I believe once he calms down, he'll stop acting crazy."

As they spoke, the elevator reached the top floor. They parted ways at the elevator and returned to their respective offices.

No sooner had Angela sat down in her chair than she received a call from Barbara.

Barbara said, "Ms. Lewis, I've been in Lithoria for a week. Why haven't you contacted me?"

"Barbara, you're so busy. How could I disturb you."

Barbara scoffed, "As long as you ask, I'll make time no matter how busy I am. I've been waiting for you to make a move on me!"

Angela was at a loss for words.

Angela thought if people knew the aloof movie star Barbara was actually like this, they wouldn't like her anymore.
