Playing Cute In Front Of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 55 

Aidan looked at the rear of Katherine's car as it went inside while he remained motionless as he stood and watched the villa's gate closing slowly.

His gaze shifted to the expensive piano on the truck, and he felt lost because he didn't know what to do next.

He thought of the possibility that this might happen, but he still felt helpless.

Aidan’s phone suddenly rang and took him out of his reverie.

This day was a total disaster.

Mrs.Sawyer also returned the piano.

Therefore, Zack might not win the shares from Lux International, and he would surely be in a foul mood later.

When Aidan hung up the phone, the worker beside him saw it and asked what they would do.

‘‘What should we do? “ he asked himself.

What else could they do? Katherine refused to accept it.

He couldn't force her to take it too.

He was just Zack's secretary, the man she divorced several months ago.

"Bring the piano back to the villa for the time being,’ he told the worker.

After saying that, Aidan turned around and drove his car to Q City.

In less than twenty minutes, he stopped the car at the parking lot of their office building.

Then, Aidan walked straight from the basement's first floor to the floor of Zack's office.

When he exited the elevator, he ran into Zack, who had just come out from a meeting.

Zack seemed to be in a good mood.

When he saw Aidan, he directly asked, "What did she say?"

Aidan immediately knew the "she" Zack was referring to.

It was Katherine.

He looked at him and prepared himself for a scolding.

Then, he nervously said, "Miss Wilson said she refused to accept it, Mr.Colburn."

When Aidan delivered the news, Zack's facial expression became cold.

Aidan repeated what he said for confirmation.

"Yes, she strongly refused the piano, Mr.Colburn.I'm sorry."

Zack recalled that Katherine also directly refused his offer yesterday when he asked her.

He felt like he took the initiative to be just humiliated by her again.

With that thought, Zack's face dimmed.

He shot Aidan a cold look and walked towards his office.

Before Zack completely walked away, Aidan said, "I have another news, Mr.Colburn’’

Aidan could tell that Zack's mood shifted to a bad one.

He knew this was not the right timing to deliver the news about the Lux International company, but he had to do it eventually later. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

He also knew that he would be dead if Zack knew it.

So, it was better to do it now.

"Just tell it!" Zack yelled.

Zack stopped walking and looked back at him coldly.

His eyes looked deadly.

Aidan felt nervous because of Zack's glare, so he looked down.

He could not dare to look straight into his eyes.

"The secretary of the Lux International's president just called me.Mrs.Sawyer didn't accept the piano, Mr.Colburn,’ he anxiously muttered.

"What's going on?" Zack coldly asked.

Aidan felt he was about to have a headache.

"I don't know yet..."

He paused for a second and continued.

"But based on the secretary's words, Mrs.Sawyer must have already given her shares to someone else.’’ So, in the end, Zack's efforts ended up in vain.

Zack's face darkened.

He was close to winning over Florence shares, but he failed.

He felt that he was tricked.

Someone might have outsmarted him.

However, business partners should have mutual trust for a business to work.

If they could not get the deal because it was non-negotiable, then he could not blame Florence for this.

However, Zack had a gut feeling that this matter was not a simple issue.

So, he instructed Aidan.

"Find out who Mrs.Sawyer had given her shares, now!"

"Okay, Mr.Colburn.I will do it immediately “ Aidan quickly replied.

Feeling grateful that he now had an excuse to avoid Zack, Aidan left immediately.

However, the task that Zack had given was too challenging.

Florence was secretive, and she only turned Zack's offer down at the last minute.

They thought that the deal would be theirs, it turned out it wasn't.

When Aidan found out that Mrs.Sawyer had given the shares of Lux International to Future Technology, it was already too late.

Two hours later, the company's official website had already changed the chairman's company list.

"Future Technology?" Zack asked.

A few days had passed, and Zack's anger towards what happened had subsided.

However, when he heard a word related or specific to Future Technology, he would always frown.

He remembered that Future Technology once tricked Sean.

Now, Ms.Summer of the same company outsmarted him too.

Zack had no interest in the person who managed Future Technology, but now, he was so eager to know the person behind it.

He couldn't help but ask Aidan.

"Who is this Ms.Summer of Future Technology? Do you have any about her identity?"

Aidan shook his head and said, "Only a few in the industry know her, Mr.Colburn"

Zack scoffed and shouted, "Then, find out who she is!"

"Okay, Mr.Colburn ‘’ Aidan replied with a nod.

As Zack's secretary, Aidan could not say no against his orders, even though the task would be impossible.
