The Divorce That Brought Us Back novel Chapter 100

As soon as the words left her mouth, a bizarre expression flickered across Parker's face.

"You came looking for me because of Lola, right?"

Cassidy observed his shifting expression. "Don't worry, I won't touch her, and I won't interfere with you."

"I will approve your maximum performance bonus every month, just like always. And if you feel your salary is too low, I'll put your name on the recommendation list during the next company-wide review."

"Do you have any other questions?"

Every single word out of Cassidy's mouth was exactly what Parker had always wanted to hear.

Her tone was gentle, even, and perfectly paced.

It should have been incredibly reassuring.

But Parker wasn't used to it.

He wasn't used to it at all.

A chill ran down his spine, and goosebumps erupted on his arms.

Without saying a word, Parker gave Cassidy one long, intense look, then turned and stormed out of the office without looking back.

As he left, he slammed the door behind him, letting out a deafening *bang*.

Cassidy didn't even blink. She simply looked back at Aidan and said calmly, "Let's continue."

On Friday.

Bridget took Cassidy to a high-profile networking gala.

Maloney was also in attendance.

Which was a testament to the prestige of the event.

Bridget spent the evening introducing Cassidy to an array of heavy-hitting connections.

For two straight hours, they didn't stop moving.

Throughout it all, Bridget spoke just as much as Cassidy, yet showed zero signs of fatigue.

Cassidy didn't dare complain about being tired.

But she could definitely feel a drop in her stamina since getting pregnant.

She'd noticed it the last time she hugged Jasmine, feeling slightly out of breath.

In the past, she could have carried Jasmine in her arms while piggybacking Nora at the same time.

Finally, Bridget went off to a private lounge for a chat with a friend, leaving Cassidy to mingle in the main hall on her own.

At last, a chance to breathe.

Cassidy found a quiet corner to rest.

But she wasn't slacking off.

Her eyes scanned the room, mentally reviewing every single person Bridget had introduced her to and mapping out their interconnected webs of influence.
