Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

I looked at Eleanor and smiled as I said to Aidan, "Then please take care of each other. I'm busy and can't always come here, so I'll leave Eleanor to you all. We old friends must get along well." "Hey. Don't say that. She not only focuses on your own sales but also brings us a lot of business. It's mutually beneficial, so we all can't just watch her being bullied.

"That woman is simply a troublemaker. With our joint effort this time, we'll drive her out. You can rest assured," Aidan said enthusiastically, showing that Eleanor had a good reputation in the market.

"In that case, I'll be relieved. I have other matters to attend to, so you guys continue your discussion." With that, I pushed Eleanor lightly. "Don't send me off, and just get back to work." Eleanor smiled at me and Carol as we left, then turned back to attend to her duties.

As I stepped out of the store, I couldn't help but think that perhaps Eleanor would manage this largest building materials market in Torado in the future.

With some nurturing, she would be a valuable asset. Then Ryan would have a good assistant.

Back in the car, Carol looked at me with concern and said, "I'm not sure if this matter will be resolved."

"Don't worry, with Aidan's joint effort, it'll be much easier to handle. If Andrea continues to be stubborn, then don't blame me for being tough." I said, recalling my father's teachings.

He had told me, "In the business world, one must be steady, ruthless, and never show weakness."

Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered what I had asked Grayson to do, and I wondered how things were going on his end with Fred.

"Any updates on Hugo recently?" I asked Carol casually.

"They've already started construction. The first batch of products does not seem bad," Carol responded cheerfully.

"Has Grayson come back in the past few days?"

Carol immediately said, "He hasn't returned for a long time. Ever since you visited Bourdamun, he hasn't returned."

"Why didn't you call and ask?" I asked her. This silly girl was truly infatuated with Grayson.

Carol blushed and said shyly, "He's busy. I can't bother him all the time."

Grayson was indeed busy, and sometimes it wasn't convenient for him to answer the phone. I figured it was also part of his discipline, and he must have informed Carabin advance.

At the Design Division, we didn't find Hana, as she was out.

I took Joyce with me to visit the new house, and indeed, Ryan's dad and the others were there.

They were delighted to see me, pulling me around to tour every corner of the new house.

Joyce seemed very satisfied, and her interaction with her future mother-in-law seemed quite harmonious. Seeing them so happy together, I felt truly relieved. After the tour, everything seemed perfect. The house was already fully furnished, thanks to their arrangements in the past few days.

Seeing the new house, Carol looked

envious as she followed behind me. "Chloe, no wonder Ryan comes to work every day without fail. It seems you can delegate all your work 1 him, and he delegated all his

life-related matters to his

Sve

you're such a strong back!

Ryan!"

Mike, for

The old couple smiled happily. "It's all thanks to you, Chloe, for arranging everything so well. A house is a big deal, so we can rest assured."

"Chloe, you favor Ryan so much." Carol quickly chimed in..

"When you get married, I'll also give you a house. It just depends on when you'll get married," I said to Carol.

She blushed instantly. "Please don't tease me. How about giving me something else first?"

Joyce laughed. "Seriously, this is the first time I've seen someone give a house as a gift. Chloe, you're so generous."

"This isn't a gift from me, but a

reward for Ryan's outstanding

contributions to the company. It also

shows that your man has absolute

value and deserves such a reward

from me."

I cleverly dispelled Joyce's concerns, not wanting her to develop any reservations toward me in the future because of these matters.

Sure enough, my words brought joy to Joyce, and her face lit up with pride.
