Breaking Point of Divorce (Hugh and Bethan) novel Chapter 372

Chapter 372 Just Kidding

Gwen assumed that, given Hugh’s worsening health, he truly needed a good rest.

Half an hour later, Gwen and Alice emerged from Hugh’s

office.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Gwen blurted out, “Alice, did Hugh tell you how long his break will be?”

Alice gave her a polite nudge, “Please, Ms. Cavill, call me Ms.

Lawrence.”

With a quick scan of the passing colleagues, she made up an excuse about checking out Gwen’s office to dodge those nosy

looks.

Once inside, Alice took a quick peek around and couldn’t help but frown.

“Ms. Cavill, who usually tidies up this place?”

Gwen felt a twinge of embarrassment. “I prefer to keep things my way. I’ll sort it out later.”

After getting a feel of the environment, Alice began. “To be

Gwen’s face paled a bit at her words.

“I’m not sure what his exact plan is, but I signed a five-year contract with the Cavill Group to assist you.”

After Alice left, Gwen sat in the office, deep in thought.

Why on earth did Hugh go to such lengths to bring Alice back as her assistant and lock her in a five-year deal?

Could he have stomach cancer and be getting his affairs in

order?

The thought sent a shiver down her spine.

To shake off the nagging thoughts, she dove headfirst into

work.

At noon, Mason showed up with lunch for Gwen.

Stepping into the office, he found her passed out on the desk.

He set the food down, bent over gently, and carried her to the sofa.

The movement roused Gwen.

Mason pulled her closer, his voice laced with concern. “Your brother’s a real piece of work, pushing you this hard.”

As he grumbled, he looked down to find Gwen fast asleep in his arms again.

Looking at her with obvious tenderness, Mason stole a glance at the door, then leaned in and planted a soft kiss on her.

With a hint of jealousy, he murmured, “My little girl’s all grown up, but still a bit oblivious.”

He carefully laid her down, slipped off her high heels, and covered her with his coat.

Then, rolling up his sleeves, he started tidying up the chaotic office.

Once done, seeing Gwen still asleep, Mason quietly silenced her phone and went to find Hugh.

Hugh was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, lost in thought.

At a towering height, dressed in black dress pants and a white shirt, with a black armband on his arm, he radiated weariness and solitude.

young girl like Gwen into the ground.”

Hugh shot him a sideways look. “If you feel so bad for her, come and lend a hand.”

“You’ve got to be kidding. You think the heir of the Martin Group would work for the Cavill Group? No chance!” Mason scoffed.

Hugh retorted, “Your brother runs the Martin Group. There’s no room for you there. Join me, and I’ll give you a shot.”

Mason rolled his eyes. Then, turning serious, he said, “Gwen’s 24 already. You’re working her to the bone. What if she ends up alone?”

Hugh stared out at the New York skyline. “If you can’t marry her, stay out of it.”

Hugh’s words hit a sore spot for Mason, who immediately shot back, “Yeah, you got married, but you still couldn’t hold onto your girl, could you?

“If you’re so tough, stop vomiting blood, stop feeling the pain, and stop crying. Go on, make Bethan forgive you!”.

It was obvious that Hugh’s face started to change. Quickly

Damn it. He’d really stepped in it this time.

From now on, he’d have to choose his words more carefully around Hugh.

One wrong move, and this guy might just keel over.
