Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 265

That explanation aligned perfectly with Elara's behavioral logic.

"Hmph."

Julian scoffed coldly, tossing his phone onto the desk with disdain as he pulled a file toward him. "She thinks it's going to be that easy."

Since he was the one who initiated the divorce, did she really believe he hadn't prepared for the fallout?

The only reason he had been trying to negotiate so amicably was for the child's sake. He didn't want to inflict any more trauma on Melody, nor did he want to ruin the image of her perfect mother.

"Mr. Beckett."

His secretary knocked and entered the office. "I just received word. The CEO of Valiant Systems is currently in Kingsport."

Julian looked up from his stack of documents, his eyes narrowing. "Are you sure it's him?"

They had been aggressively pursuing a partnership with the French tech giant. At least half a dozen domestic firms were fighting tooth and nail for the bid. Ark Solutions had even sent a team to France in a desperate bid to contact the CEO directly, but they had hit a brick wall every time.

Julian had planned to fly to France himself next week. He never imagined the CEO would show up right in their backyard!

The secretary nodded. "Yes, I confirmed it with their team. Their CEO landed in Kingsport this afternoon."

Pausing for effect, he added, "And I heard that Sebastian Vance from Vance Dynamics is with him."

"Sebastian?"

Julian was genuinely taken aback. "Why would Sebastian be with Valiant Systems' CEO?"

Did Vance Dynamics even operate in that sector?

Maybe one of their subsidiaries was exploring a partnership, but would a project on that scale warrant Sebastian's personal involvement?

Whatever the reason, it didn't matter now.

Julian quickly signed off on the urgent files, handing them back to his secretary as he stood up. "Change Vivian's and my tickets. We're flying out tonight."

The secretary was surprised. "You're heading there tonight, sir?"

"Yes."
