Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 756

Chapter 756 Choose One

It was time to get off work again.

Whitney hesitated whether to head to the underground parking lot.

When I left this morning, Charles refused to join me. I don't think he'll pick me up after work, right? But if I don't go to the underground parking lot and he really did come to drive me home, he'll be mad when he doesn't see me. We only argued once yesterday, but the atmosphere between us is really suffocating. There are still eleven months until the end of the contract, and we'll likely meet each other every day. I can't keep avoiding him.

After some deliberation, Whitney decided to text him, asking him if he was coming, and then apologize to him.

Charles and I are only a married couple by contract, so I was wrong to overstep my boundary and ask about his past. More than that, I shouldn't have brought up the matters between him and Gwendolyn.

She tapped on the WhatsApp icon on her phone and immediately saw Charles' name at the top of the screen.

Just as she was ready to type her message, Lana suddenly came over from the side.

Whitney quickly turned off her phone so Lana wouldn't see anything.

“Tch, what's there to hide? Were you texting Isaac? Is it because you want him to pick you up after work? What car does he drive?”

Whitney was a little offended. “I don't know what car Isaac drives, and I don't have a relationship with him. But I doubt you'll believe me, so I won't repeat myself again in the future.”

Lana rolled her eyes and sashayed back to her desk.

Gripping her phone, Whitney became hesitant to text Charles again even though she had made up her mind earlier.

At that moment, her superior suddenly approached her. “Come to my office, Whitney. I have a task for you tomorrow.”

“Sure.” She put away her phone and followed her superior into the office.

Seeing that she was a fast learner, her superior provided her with something new to work on, allowing her to tackle them at her pace.

Their meeting lasted for twenty minutes.

By the time Whitney left the office, almost all her colleagues were gone. Only a few were still working overtime.

Whitney looked at the time before expeditiously packing her things and taking the elevator downstairs.

She looked around the underground parking lot and didn't spot Charles' luxury car.

It's been over ten minutes. If Charles had been here, he definitely would have called to reprimand me after getting anxious from waiting for me. But he didn't...

Standing in the parking lot, Whitney was at a loss for what to do.

Suddenly, she heard heavy footsteps coming from behind her. Thinking that it was Charles, she spun back in surprise, only to see that it was Isaac.

He smiled at her and explained, “Mr. Newton had something to do today and didn't come to the office all day. I'm guessing he has already returned to the Newton residence. I have a car. How about I send you back home, Mrs. Newton?”

Disappointment swirled in Whitney's eyes as she lowered her head.

“It's all right. I also have some things to do, so I may be returning to the Newton residence a bit later than usual. You be careful on your way back.”

Seeing that she genuinely wasn't planning to join him instead of just being polite, Isaac said, “All right, then. You be careful on your way back home as well, Mrs. Newton.”

Whitney nodded and returned to the elevator, planning to leave the building from the ground floor.
