I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 1120

Chapter 1120: Unfinished Business Between Him and Me

After listening to Allan, Zane fell silent for a few seconds. "How does Evan feel about this matter?"

"He doesn't know yet," Allan answered, taking a drag from his cigarette. His tone was slightly heavy. "Those people are after me."

As Zane heard Allan's words, he turned to look at him. "Is it related to him?"

Both of them knew exactly who he was referring to.

In Allan's circle, the people who would target him were none other than Nealon's people.

Allan absentmindedly ruffled his slightly disheveled hair, speaking softly, "It's somewhat related, but this matter isn't entirely because of him. You don't need to think too much about it; I'll handle it."

Zane didn't press further and said straightforwardly, "If you need anything, just find Albi. He'll help you arrange it."

"You're not going to ask for more details?" Allan turned to look at Zane, speaking in a hushed tone.

Zane raised an eyebrow, meeting Allan's gaze. "What do you want me to ask in detail? Would you tell me if I did?"

Allan took the cigarette from his lips, playing with it between his fingers. His voice revealed no extra emotion. "I just don't want to involve people around me, especially you guys."

Hearing Allan's words, a crease formed on Zane's brow. "Is there unfinished business between you and him?"

Allan chuckled lightly. "Finished? You really don't understand our line of work. Wrapping things up isn't so easy."

"How then?" Zane asked, looking at Allan.

Allan shook his head gently. "It's better for you guys not to know the specifics."

After saying that, Allan stood up. "It's getting late. I'll take Reed back."

Zane tilted his head slightly, looking at Allan. "You're not staying for dinner? Reed promised Yanis they'd have dinner here. Are you going back by yourself?"

Upon hearing Zane's words, Allan stood still for a moment before sitting back down. "Considering your sincere invitation to have dinner at your house, I'll reluctantly accept."

Zane gave Allan a brief look and then stood up, tossing the cigarette he had been holding between his fingers to Allan. "Get this area sorted before dinner."

Allan sighed lightly, stood up, and placed the two almost ruined cigarettes in his hand aside. "You're really... not likable."

As Zane was rearranging the pots, he replied, "You're not the first person to say that."

Allan paused and looked at Zane, his voice carrying a touch of curiosity. "There are others?"

Zane replied, "Ivan, Iris."

Allan chuckled. "That means you're really not likable. I'm curious why Yanis likes you so much."

Zane didn't respond to Allan's remark, finishing arranging the pots, then started giving Allan clear instructions on what to do.

Allan didn't protest, and Zane's directions were promptly executed.

The two of them worked in the backyard until evening, finally getting it all organized.

Looking at the neatly arranged rows of flowers, Allan felt a sense of accomplishment. "When we change houses, let's find one with a backyard. We can plant flowers that Reed likes. I seem to have a knack for it."

Zane cast a disdainful look at Allan. "You certainly have a knack for arranging."

"What's wrong? I can't take care of these plants?" Allan glanced at Zane sideways. "Let me tell you, don't underestimate me."
