Goodbye, Mr. Ex-Husband, I Won't Come Back novel Chapter 138

Logan

“Sir, please, sign these documents so I can send them to our lawyers for further progress.” My secretory placed a stack of files in front of me.

“Do you need them today?” I asked.

“Yes, Sir. The court will open on Monday then. Don’t worry, I have personally reviewed them. You don’t need to read them all again.” He said.

“You know I don’t sign any paper before reading them. You can submit them on Monday because it’s impossible to finish all these papers today.” I said.

“Okay, Sir.” He nodded.

“You may leave now.” I dismissed him and he disappeared in the next moment.

But he came back five minutes later as I ignored the intercom.

“Sir, Mr. Felix and a lady are here to see you. shall I send them inside?” He asked in a hesitated tone.

He had started working for me less than six months ago.

I sighed and leaned back on his chair.

Felix must have come with his wife. If he was alone, I would have stopped him but I couldn’t do it to Amanda.

“Okay, send them inside.” I said and closed the file that I just opened to review.

A minute later, the door opened again and Felix walked in. But to my surprise, it wasn’t Amanda but Ashley with her. I had met her a week ago in the party.

“Good afternoon, boss.” Felix bowed dramatically.

“I am sorry, Mr. Wilferd if I intruded your privacy. Felix asked me to tag along.” Ashley greeted me.

“It’s fine, Ms. Steller. My cousin has a habit to invade people’s privacy when they are at work.” I mocked my cousin who looked totally unbothered by my remark.

“Please, make yourself comfortable.” I offered her politely.

“Logan, we come here to discuss business with you.” He said.

I looked between them.

“What kind of business?” I asked.

He sighed and leaned forward, “Ashley is the managing director of her father’s company and we have learned that you are about to sign a deal with him, is it true?”

“I understand but I need time to think about it because the papers are already sent to my legal team for discussion.” I said.

“It’s fine, Mr. Wilferd. I can wait for your answer but please, consider my request.” A smile stretched on her lips.

“May I speak now?” Felix looked between us.

“Now what?” I gave him an annoyed look.

“Amanda wants us to go on a trip to Vienna and she wants you to come with us.” He said with a grin,

“Felix, you know it’s useless to even mention it in front of me. I don’t go on vacations. I will personally apologize to Amanda but my answer is still a no.” I flatly refused.

Meanwhile, Ashley was only listening.

“No one can win against her and it’s her birthday next week. She wants everyone to celebrate it in the country where she was born and raised by her grandmother, right, Ashley?” He shared a look with his sister-in-law.

“Yes, Amanda and our eighty years old grandmother shares the same birthday and we want to make it memorable for her.” Ashley spoke this time.

But before I could come up with another excuse, Felix said something which forced me to think.

“Maybe your fate might bring your lost love in front of you. Sometimes we find people where we don’t expect them to be.”
