The Transactional Marriage That Imploded novel Chapter 90

Bianca was deeply moved. "Thank you!"

Milo sighed. "After such a heroic rescue, you didn't even throw yourself into my arms to confess your undying gratitude. You really are made of stone. Tell me you aren't still in love with Mathis, right?"

Bianca rolled her eyes. "Only an absolute idiot would love him."

Milo laughed. "You're pretty brutal when you insult yourself. Don't sign that garbage agreement with Mathis. He isn't worth sacrificing the rest of your life for. I have never seen a man with so little class. He's treating you like public enemy number one."

Bianca's expression darkened. "He'd never agree to it anyway. He just wants to make my life miserable."

Milo shrugged. "Who cares about him? He can find other women, and you can find me. I'm just as good as he is, and I'm loyal. If I were with you and I ever cheated, you could curse me to be broke for the rest of my life."

That single sentence managed to make Bianca laugh. "You're definitely interesting, but I'm not divorced yet, so don't get too close to me. Mathis is far from generous. Even though he doesn't care about me, he cares about his male ego."

Mentioning this made Milo grit his teeth in frustration. "If he were literally anyone else with a bit less status, I would beat him into next week until he begged you for a divorce. But him... I can't touch him."

Bianca smiled softly. "It's okay, I appreciate the thought. It's too late for me to invite you up for a drink tonight, but I'll treat you to dinner on Saturday."

Milo beamed. "No problem, it's a date." He tapped his phone in the air. "If you need anything, remember to call me. I'm on standby 24/7."

"Will do!"

The signing ceremony between Stellaride Computing and Fiyato was quite grand. They held a press conference at a five-star hotel and invited a massive media presence.

Fiyato was a publicly traded company, and this was clearly a move to boost their stock prices.

With Bianca acting as Stellaride's representative and Milo representing Fiyato, the two of them looked incredibly striking standing side by side.

No one actually cared about the technology; they were all just chasing the visual hype.

Bianca had been busy with work and hadn't had a second to check her phone.

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Xanthe squealed. "The Wildwin ship! It's blowing up everywhere. Go look online."

Bianca opened the app on her computer and saw they had already surged to the number one spot on the entertainment trending list.

That psycho Mathis was definitely going to see this, and she had no idea how he'd retaliate.

His threat from last night hadn't been empty words. Bianca hastily hung up and called Milo.

"Milo, did you buy the trending spot?"
