Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 193

He jumped up with a scream, fumbling for some napkins and frantically wiping the juice off his clothes.

“Autumn, are you insane? How dare you embarrass me in front of everyone! Believe it or not, I’ll tell Mr. Sharp tomorrow and have you thrown out!”

He never expected Autumn to lash out physically in front of so many people. It was utterly uncivilized.

At first, he hadn’t dared to be too arrogant in front of Keith, but after they’d said so much and Keith hadn’t stepped in to defend Autumn, his courage grew.

It made people wonder if Autumn had already fallen out of favor.

Moments ago, Keith had stood up for her, giving everyone a warning.

Yet now he just sat there like a block of wood, motionless, not even saying a word for her.

That only made Hector bolder.

With a cold snort, he went on mocking, “Autumn, I thought you just had a bad temper, but it turns out you’re downright uncouth.

“Instead of improving yourself, all you do is rely on men. Just look at the mess you’ve become.”

“If you’re not ashamed of yourself, I’m embarrassed for you. You…”

Before he could finish, another glass came flying straight at his forehead.

Hector clutched his head, stars bursting before his eyes, and squinted at the one who had thrown it.

Never in his wildest thoughts did he imagine it would be Keith, who hadn’t said a word until now.

Keith calmly wiped his hand. “If your mouth is filthy, wash it. Otherwise, every word that comes out is filth, and no one wants to hear it.”

“And taking pleasure in bullying someone who belongs to me—is that the best you can call sincerity?”

He deliberately emphasized the words “my woman.” Since they pretended not to understand, he’d make sure they heard it loud and clear.

Hearing Keith speak up for her, Autumn instinctively lifted her eyes to him, only to find his gaze already fixed on her. Their eyes met.

Looking into the depth of his dark eyes felt like staring into a bottomless whirlpool—too easy to fall into if she looked too long.

She quickly pulled her gaze away and lowered her head, pretending to focus on the food left in her hand.

But to Simon, it looked like the two were exchanging tender glances, right in front of everyone. Shameful.

At that moment, Julian finally spoke. “Mr. Sinclair, please don’t let trivial matters distract you. After all, cooperation is built on mutual profit, not on personal feelings and grudges. Don’t you agree?”
