Fall for You After Divorce novel (Brianna and Maxim) novel Chapter 6

Chapter 6

Briana opened the door, got out of the car, turned, and walked back. The black Maybach stopped in situ for a few seconds and finally went the other way.

Maxim was in the car. He looked at her figure which was getting smaller and smaller in the rearview mirror and was annoyed.

He didn’t get it. Why was Briana so stubborn this time? She had always been so obedient and gentle. He had already swallowed his pride and came to her, and yet she still wanted a divorce.

Yet he found that the priority was to go find Kiley now. He would find some time to talk to Briana.

Briana went back for about 100 meters when she got a call from Hector.

“Briana, where are you?”

Hearing the anxiety in Hector’s voice, Briana felt warm.

“I’m halfway up the mountain on my way back.”

“Where’s Mr. Yoder?”

There was no emotion in her eyes. She said calmly, “He’s gone.”

“It’s the middle of the night, and he just left you, a girl, halfway up the mountain? I’ll be right there! Give me five minutes!”

He hung up before giving her a chance to turn him down.

Briana put away her phone and stood in situ, waiting for Hector.

When Hector arrived, Briana was standing on the side of the road, kicking stones out of boredom.

Hearing the engine, she looked up and saw Hector’s car pull up in front of her.

He pushed the door open and got out. He was relieved to see that she was OK, and then he walked quickly to her side and opened the passenger door for her.

“Get in, Briana.”

Seeing him so considerate, Briana couldn’t help smiling and teased, “No wonder so many girls want to be your girlfriend. You are so gentlemanly.”

Hector smiled, “What about you? Do you think I’m boyfriend material?”

Seeing his casual expression, she knew he was joking, so she nodded and said, “Of course. If you are someone’s boyfriend, you will be the perfect guy.”

His eyes flashed with disappointment, but he smiled and said, “It’s a pity that the person I like doesn’t like me.”

Briana patted him on the shoulder and said, “What a coincidence. Same here.”

Hector could not help but smile and shake his head. He said, “You’re so bad at comforting. I feel sadder.”

“Enough jokes. Let’s hurry back. I’ll start working tomorrow.”

Hector raised his eyebrows. “Are you coming back to be my agent again?”

“I don’t think so. Besides, you have an agent already. Even if I do come back, I don’t get to have you as my artist.”

Hector smiled and said nothing more.

By the time they got back to the villa, the coffee was cold, and she wasn’t in the mood for coffee anymore. She said good night to Hector and went to her room.

The next morning, Briana got up, washed up, and went downstairs. Seeing that Melody had been waiting for her in the living room on the first floor, she hurried downstairs.

“Ms. Joyce, would you consider giving me another day off?”

Melody sneered, looking like a demoness who was about to eat Briana alive. She threw a stack of papers straight into Briana’s arms.

“You’ve taken three years off already. And you’re telling me that you want another day off? Finish these papers on the way to the office. We’ve got a big battle ahead of us today!”

Briana looked at the papers in her arms, feeling a bit speechless. Then she said, “Are you trying to wear me off on my first day of work?”

“You have no idea. In the three years you were away, those old bastards have been ruining MY Corporation. They kept shoving their relatives into the company, who cared nothing but money and never worked. If you don’t come back, the company will collapse sooner or later!”

Briana was rendered speechless.

On the way to work, Melody couldn’t help but gossip.

“By the way, when I went to see you this morning, I saw Hector, the trending best actor at your place. You just divorced Maxim, and you’re already keeping an actor?”

Briana turned her gaze from the papers to Melody and said seriously, “For one thing, Hector and I are just friends. For another, Maxim and I are still married, so he’s not my ex-husband for now.”

Melody’s eyes were filled with shock. “In other words, you’re already keeping an actor while being Maxim’s wife still? How juicy!”

Briana was speechless again. “Do you not understand my words? How did you manage to graduate?”

Melody raised her chin. “Of course, I do. I used to be first in my class.”
