Jilted Ex-wife Billionaire Heiress novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152 The DM Couple

Given the dire situation caused by Darya’s quest for vengeance, Micah had the chance to engage in a constructive conversation with her.

However, instead of trying to find a resolution, Micah had impulsively given away his shares to Darya.

Micah’s indifference to Morton’s anger only fuelled the fire within him.

‘I didn’t expect you to act so recklessly! I thought you were smarter than this!‘ Morton shouted.

Micah remained unfazed by his father’s outburst, his voice calm and detached. ‘We owe Darya a great deal. If she needs those shares, I’ll give them to her.‘

Morton’s chest heaved as the old man breathed heavily.

‘And besides, Starlight is in showbiz, which is not a market we are currently interested in expanding into,‘ Micah added. ‘Whether I keep those shares or not doesn’t make much of a difference.‘

Morton’s wrath eased somewhat upon hearing Micah’s words.

If Starlight didn’t contribute much to Zenith’s business plans, then perhaps relinquishing the shares wasn’t such a loss after all.

His features softened slightly as he said, ‘If that’s the case, then so be it.‘

He sat down and waved at his son to do the same. ‘But the McAllisters won’t easily make peace with us. If they continue to oppose us, both families will suffer losses.‘

Micah, anticipating his father’s next suggestion, looked at him with a knowing expression.

‘In terms of family background and talent, Darya is a perfect match for you,‘ Morton said. ‘Despite your divorce, she had genuine feelings for you in the past. She was even willing to conceal her true identity just to be with

you.‘

The old man tapped a finger on his desk, getting excited by his own idea.

‘If you treat her well, there’s a chance she might fall in love with you again. And when that time comes, all our problems will be easily resolved. With such a powerful alliance, the McAllisters and the Cavanaughs can grow together.‘

Micah’s expression grew increasingly grim at the idea of remarrying Darya.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to do it, but he didn’t want to do it for the reason his father was proposing.

A flicker of annoyance crossed his face.

Chapter 152 The DM Couple

It seemed that Morton was completely unaware of the current situation.

‘She will never agree to remarry, especially for the sake of a business alliance,‘ Micah said, his thoughts drifting to Darya’s cold and distant demeanour.

Darya went to great lengths to avoid him.

Why would she even consider the idea of remarrying?

‘Do you want to see her marry someone else?‘ Morton snorted with derision. ‘That wouldn’t benefit the Cavanaughs in any way.‘

To Morton, there was no man more deserving of the McAllister heiress than Micah.

The thought of her being with anyone else was laughable.

Since she had to get married eventually, as women tended to, why not work towards reuniting Micah and

Darya?

Despite Morton’s previous prejudice against Darya, her ties to the powerful McAllisters were enough for him to let go of his reservations and accept her again.

Micah’s frown deepened upon hearing the mention of Darya marrying someone else.

No, Darya couldn’t be with anyone else.

The mere sight of her standing beside another man was enough to make him uncomfortable, let alone the thought of her marrying someone else.

If Darya is unwilling, I can help you find another socialite’s daughter. Together, we can stand against the McAllisters.‘ Morton conceded when he realised his son wouldn’t budge.

Micah raised his head, a look of defiance gleaming in his eyes. ‘I don’t need a marriage alliance. From now on, please stop meddling in my private affairs, whether it’s about Darya or someone else. I have my own plans.‘

He had no interest in other women.

And the last thing he needed, as he was trying to win Darya back, was for his father to set him up with a string of blind dates.

Micah stood up abruptly and left the study, leaving Morton and his thoughts behind.

Felicia rushed over to Micah as soon as she spotted him, her voice filled with concern. ‘Micah, did Dad scold you? I told you that Darya is trouble. Don’t let her think she can walk all over the Cavanaughs!‘

Micah narrowed his eyes, studying his sister’s face intently. ‘Felicia, I warned you not to cause trouble, remember?‘

Felicia was taken aback, her words stumbling out. ‘W–What did I do?‘

‘Did you apologise to Darya?‘ Micah questioned, his gaze piercing.

Felicia’s eyes darted left and right, looking anywhere but at her brother.

‘Felicia, let me make this clear,‘ Micah said sternly. ‘If you dare provoke Darya again, I won’t be there to help you clean up the mess. And neither will Dad.‘
