Divorce, Please: The Young Master Does Not Love Me
Chapter 613 - 609: Extraordinary SignificanceChapter 613: Chapter 609: Extraordinary Significance
After hanging up, Ian Shaw stared intently at the computer screen, watching the video feed.
When he saw Jasmine Warren finish rummaging around and seem to be holding something, Ian Shaw grabbed his phone and quickly snapped a few photos. A cold, sinister smile played on his lips.
He had deliberately reminded Jasmine Warren that no one wants to hurt a good friend. But clearly, Jasmine Warren didn’t truly consider Mika Summers a friend at all.
’The bonds of friendship between women really are fragile. All for the sake of so-called love, it comes to this.’
But at that moment, Ian Shaw seemed to forget that his own close friends, Cassian Jennings and Aiden Avery, had seen their relationship fall to pieces over a woman—Amelia Avery.
In truth, so-called friendship, whether between men or women, was always subject to change the moment personal interests were involved.
Human emotions are incredibly fragile; they can’t withstand trials, nor can they resist the world’s many temptations.
That’s why all relationships, be it friendship or love, must be handled with delicate care...
***
After last night’s phone call, Mika Summers and Tristan Grayson lost all interest in their honeymoon and flew back to Tridell overnight.
Before seven in the morning, they left home and headed to the office.
Since Mika Summers was pregnant, Tristan Grayson didn’t dare to drive too fast. As they neared the office, they stopped at a breakfast shop for a bowl of congee before walking the rest of the way hand in hand.
Though it was only a walk of two or three hundred meters, Mika felt time crawl by. ’So slow, so very slow.’ But the moment she and Tristan walked through the company’s main entrance, time suddenly felt like it was speeding up. ’So fast, so very fast.’ So fast she didn’t know how she was going to face Jasmine.
’Am I supposed to sternly demand why Jasmine went into my office? Why she rummaged through my things without permission?’
’She couldn’t bring herself to ask those questions. At the same time, she didn’t want their friendship to end just like this.’
She had already decided. ’After this, we’ll be even. From now on, we’ll be strangers.’
The employees arriving for work saw that President Summers, who had been away for many days, was back. They hurried forward one by one to greet her, but since Mika was too distracted and uneasy, Tristan Grayson simply nodded in response on her behalf.
Tristan Grayson wrapped an arm around her, lowered his head, and comforted her softly. "Don’t frown. Don’t be upset. Whatever you decide to do, I’ll support you."
"..." Mika’s eyes reddened as she looked up at him, her gaze brimming with emotion.
"Let’s go. Ian Shaw must be getting antsy." Tristan couldn’t help but find it amusing, thinking of Ian’s fiery, impatient personality.
’But this time, Ian is probably in for a disappointment.’ He knew his wife well. Even if Jasmine Warren was planning to do something to harm her, Mika would never retaliate before anything actually happened.
Tristan Grayson led her into the elevator, and they went straight to the top floor.
As they approached the president’s office, the assistants and secretaries in the outer office quickly rose to their feet, calling out in unison, "President Summers! President Grayson!"
Tristan Grayson stood expressionlessly by Mika’s side, waiting for her to speak.
Mika, however, merely glanced over the staff, her expression cold. She nodded. "Carry on with your work."
With that, she withdrew her gaze and entered the office with Tristan.
The office door had been closed for less than a minute when Ian Shaw pushed it open and walked in.
He didn’t stand on ceremony, making himself as comfortable as if he were in his own office. He walked straight past Tristan to Mika’s side, leaned over, and grabbed the mouse. After a few clicks, an image appeared on the screen—it was last night’s surveillance footage.
"Now you have to believe what I’ve been saying, right? Mika, look. The surveillance footage for this section is gone. You’d better think carefully about what that means." As he spoke, an enraged Ian Shaw jabbed a finger at the computer screen.
"I stayed here all night. It’s a good thing I remembered who this Jasmine Warren was, otherwise all our company’s data could have been stolen last night." To be honest, Ian felt a little guilty saying this. After all, he had personally investigated Jasmine Warren before and even met her a few times, yet he had somehow failed to recognize her. If he had, he would have taken notice of her from her very first day at the company.
Mika sat in her office chair, her face deathly pale. Ian, standing beside her, was completely oblivious and kept rattling on.
Tristan finally couldn’t take it anymore. He grabbed Ian’s arm and yanked him away. "That’s enough."
"What the hell, Tristan, what the f—" The word was barely out of his mouth when Ian saw Mika’s ashen face. He had the sense to shut up. But after a moment, he felt he still had to warn her. "Mika, I’m only saying this because you’re Tristan’s wife. To be merciful to your enemies is to be cruel to yourself. Especially given your position now—you’re Tristan Grayson’s wife and the largest shareholder of Sovereign. The fates of countless companies rest in your hands. Let’s not even talk about the other subsidiaries. Just look at LK, which is currently our fastest-growing asset. Maybe you think I have a personal stake in this since I’m in charge of LK, but let me tell you, Mika, LK is just a company Tristan and I started together when we were young. Yes, we poured our hearts into it, and it holds special meaning. But for me, one LK failing isn’t enough to bring me down. It would hurt for a while, sure, but it wouldn’t be the end of me. But it’s different for Tristan! LK’s significance to the Grayson Family is on another level." Ian Shaw could succeed in any field he chose, but Tristan had poured all his efforts into LK for all these years.
If LK were to fall, the Grayson Family would quickly fall with it.
Listening to Ian, Mika’s eyes reddened slightly. She nodded with a faint smile. "I know. Thank you." Of course she knew how significant LK was.
’It represented Mr. Grayson’s hopes for Tristan. She was well aware of how prestigious LK had once been in Tridell, and she certainly knew how famous Tristan had been.’
’Back then, whether you opened your phone or turned on the TV, the headlines were all about Tristan Grayson and LK Group.’
’Now, LK was finally on the verge of returning to its former glory. How could she bear to see all of Tristan’s hard work be destroyed again?’
Seeing that she had truly taken his words to heart, Ian left with a sense of relief.
After Ian left, Tristan smiled, feigning nonchalance. "Don’t listen to Ian’s nonsense. Do whatever you want."
