His Ex-wife Is An Heiress (Amara and Tobias) novel Chapter 76

Two days of headache, one horrible nightmare and lots of blank spaced memory was all it took to keep Amara away from Alcohol. Permanently.

When Bethany had suggested they go drinking some time within the week, Amara did not hesitate to flat out reject the suggestion. For some ominous reason, she felt like this time around, if she got drunk and had another ridiculous blackout session, she’d end up doing something stupid, and that she wanted to avoid.

Walking through the doors of her company, the first thing that caught Amara’s attention were brown boxes lined up in the reception.

Was something happening today? She wanted to approach the receptionist or better yet, locate Duncan and question him until answers were provided, but before she could do either, the answer to her question literally walked out.

Jasper carried more boxes in his hand, visibly frowning as he did so.

Now Amara was more than curious and she approached the receptionist. “What’s going on?”

Lia, the receptionist who until now, had been watching Jasper carry his stuff out, looked up at Amara and gave her a smile.

“Oh, Miss Miller, Good morning. As for the matter concerning Mr. Reynolds, it seems like he’s been fired.”

“Fired?” Amara’s brows noticeably arched. She looked from Lia towards Jasper who had only just now noticed her.

He scowled. “Are you happy? Finally got what you wanted, didn’t you?” His voice was filled with so much venom that would have made Amara scared…if she had the heart of someone like sweet ol’ Lia behind the counter.

But that wasn’t the case.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Jasper, and I’m pretty sure this has nothing to do with me. Perhaps it has everything to do with that filthy attitude and running mouth of yours.”

Her words had the effect she had intended it to, and Jasper fumed.

“If anyone’s mouth here should be considered dirty then it should be yours. Don’t think we don’t all know where that mouth has been, what it has done, all in the bid to secure you this position…all in the bid to get me fired.”
