Chapter 74 Mentally Cheating 

#15 Bonus 

The first thing she saw was the back of a tall and slightly skinny man. He was standing in front of the French windows, and he seemed like he was watching the scenery below

He had a good figure, and although she could not see his face, she sensed that the chairman should be a young man

For a split moment, she inexplicably found the silhouette of the man familiar

If not for the expensive suit and bespoke shoes he was wearing, she would have thought that this man was Alex

ChairmanHeather carefully called out

Yes,Alex answered in a hoarse voice

I’m Heather Jennings. I’m here to thank you for standing up for me twice” 

Heather hesitated before continuing, I don’t know how to express my gratitude. If you’re alright with it, please let me buy you a meal”

A mocking smile crept on Alex’s face. It wa is if someone had brought a knife down on the softest parts of his heart

This was his beloved wife. She had never expressed her concern for him, but now, she was worried about a complete stranger

Ms. Jennings, you’re awfully concerned about. Aren’t you afraid that your husband will get angry?Alex mocked

Heather’s heart skipped a beat. She did not know why the man had said those words

Chairman, I’ll be divorcing him soon. Furthermore, he’s just a useless man. He won’t care about me,” Heather explained
