Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 973

Men are extremely demanding when they work. Even at social engagements, Derek had never shown anyone a warm face. As the industry's most explosive dark horse, he could afford to be arrogant.

But now—

When he faced Chloe, there was a gentleness in his eyes. Even his voice was coaxing.

Infinitely patient.

The doting tenderness in him made Roxanne's eyes sting.

She had never seen Derek like this when she was with him.

And now she was witnessing firsthand how deeply he cherished his wife, Chloe. It wasn't an act for anyone's benefit. It came from the heart—a dynamic he and Chloe had clearly settled into long ago.

Roxanne's eyes quivered.

Her hands balled into fists.

Chloe looked into Derek's eyes. The way he looked at her hadn't changed in all these years.

He loved her. Anyone could see it.

Even now, with Roxanne standing right there, he made no effort to hide it—as if Roxanne had nothing to do with him at all, as if his wife was still his entire world.

And yet, this pretense of not knowing each other said more than words ever could.

They'd met in secret at a hotel just yesterday.

Today, they were strangers.

Chloe suddenly smiled. "But I still have a shoot with Miss Roxanne. I'm afraid I don't have time to go eat with you."

"Is that so." Only then did Derek glance at Roxanne. "If you're willing, could you adjust the schedule? My wife needs to eat before she can work."

Roxanne's spine went rigid.

Derek's tone toward her was polite on the surface, but it was a warning underneath.

She drew a sharp breath and didn't dare let any displeasure show. "Either way works for me."

"Thank you."

Derek didn't spare Roxanne another glance. He reached for Chloe's hand and frowned. "Why are you dressed so lightly? Your hands and feet are always cold, and you still refuse to wear more layers."

Chloe almost laughed.

In that moment, her eyes betrayed her and threatened to tear up.

But she held it in.

She pulled her hand away. "All right, I know. I have work to do. Don't bother me."

Derek frowned. Without another word, he took off his coat and draped it over Chloe. She stiffened but didn't push it away.
