His Ex-wife Is An Heiress (Amara and Tobias) novel Chapter 37

Jasper swallowed nervously, feeling as small as an ant as Amara stared down at him.

“Go on,” She urged, folding her hand across her chest and looking expectant. “I’m listening.”

“I…” He began, but the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat.

What happened to the man that was confidently speaking a few seconds ago? He questioned himself, wanting to open his mouth and speak the truth. And what exactly was the truth? The fact that he, amongst all the executives deserved the position of branch manager more than Amara ever did.

He had been with the company longer, knew more people, and had a wider network of contacts and influence. He had even made more investment and worked his ass off more than anyone.

How was a newcomer like Amara qualified for the role? She wasn’t. She had not experienced the hardships he had. Hadn’t faced the struggles he had, nor did she have the determination, the commitment, the skills and experience he had.

So why the hell did she get the role he has always wanted? Simply because she sold her body? Disgusting!

Jasper silence dragged on for longer than anyone liked. Amara tilted her head to the side, sizing up the person who called himself a man.

“Well, aren’t you going to say anything? Have you lost the motivation to spout lies now that you’ve seen me?” She asked, her tone was sweet and a bit mocking, which had Jasper’s teeth clenching and his fists balling up.

“You,” He hissed. “Who said anything about spouting lies? I was simply telling this Youngblood the truth.”

“The truth? What exactly is the truth?”

“You’re proposal to meet with Madam Sinclair was declined and soon, the president would realize your incompetence and kick you out, then he’d come and meet me, who’s well acquainted with Madam Sinclair and ask me to step up and fix this mess, which I would, because Madam Sinclair and I go way back. We have so much in common that wrapping up a deal like this would be a piece of cake.”
