Divorced The True Heiress Gets It All novel Chapter 530

Chapter 530

After ten minutes of fooling around, Owen finally started working, packing under Aria’s direction.

There weren’t many clothes to pack, so it was fairly simple.

Owen took her books off the shelves one by one.

Aria reminded him, “It’s just across the hall. No need to bring so many. I’ll be coming back anyway.”

Hearing that, Owen sped up instead, stuffing the rest of the books into a cardboard box. “Then you can read them at my place. I won’t disturb you.”

Aria didn’t know how to respond, so she just let him be.

Twenty minutes later, the moving was mostly done.

Aria headed to Pearl’s room and gently knocked on the door.

The scars on Pearl’s face faded a lot. She’d be fine as long as she continued using the medicine.

She said, “I’ll be staying at your brother-in-law’s place more often from now on. If you need me, just knock or call, okay?”

“Okay.” Pearl nodded obediently, her eyes sparkling.

She had made a bet with Lily about when Aria and Owen would start living together.

She guessed before the holiday, Lily guessed after.

There were three days left until the holiday, so she won.

Aria didn’t understand what Pearl was so happy about, nor did she overthink it. She turned to Ella. “Same goes for you. If you need anything, call me. Don’t be afraid to bother me.”

Ella noddeu. “Okay, don’t worry, Ms. Saxon. I’ll take good care of Pearl.”

Aria added, “You can use the study too. If you don’t find the books you want, tell me. I’ll get them for you.”

“Thank you, Ms. Saxon,” Ella replied.

When Aria returned to the place across the hall, Owen was already in the study, carefully arranging her books.

As soon as she dialed Johnny’s number, he picked up immediately.

“Thirty-two minutes…” Johnny’s deliberately drawn-out tone was full of mischief. “The guy you kept isn’t that great, huh? Want me to introduce someone younger?”

Before he finished speaking, the study door creaked fully open.

Owen stood in the doorway, sunlight pouring in behind him, casting a tall shadow on the floor.

He narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling dangerously on the phone in Aria’s hand.

He strode over and wrapped his long fingers around her wrist, lifting her hand so the phone was between them both.

Johnny continued on the line, “College boys okay? We have some new interns. One of them is really handsome, I could…” “No need for the trouble!” Owen’s voice was low and heavy, full of unmistakable possessiveness. “My sponsor is very satisfied

with me.”

“Aren’t you, Madelyn?” He directed the last sentence right at Aria.

Dead silence on the other end. Three seconds later, a violent cough exploded through the speaker. “Madelyn? He calls you Madelyn?”

Johnny knew Aria’s original name.

Hearing this, he instantly realized this man knew a lot about Aria. This was clearly not some casual sugar arrangement.

“Who are you?” Johnny asked directly.

Owen’s smooth, calm voice came through. “I’m her lover. Mr. Oconnor, if you would like to meet, I can come with Madelyn this afternoon. Would that be alright?”

Johnny replied, “Of course. You’re both welcome.”

He was very curious what kind of man had won over Aria.

Owen said, “Then thank you, Mr. Oconnor.”

Johnny replied, “No need.”

This time, Johnny wisely ended the call himself.

He immediately messaged Vanessa: [Did you know that girl is keeping a man?]

Vanessa: [Keeping a guy? What are you talking about? I had no idea!]

Johnny briefly filled her in. [So who the hell is that guy?]

Vanessa: [You must mean Owen. They’re dating like normal people. None of that sugar baby nonsense. Just typical couple banter.]

Johnny: [What! When did they start dating? Why didn’t anyone tell me?]

Vanessa: [Well, now you know, don’t you?]

Johnny: [Damn, you guys totally excluded me. You kept such a big thing from me. I’m lodging a formal protest.]

Vanessa didn’t reply again.

Johnny sulked for a while until his secretary knocked on the door.

“Come in,” Johnny said.

The secretary entered. “Mr. Oconnor, the interviews are finished.”

Johnny glanced up. “You needed to tell me this personally?”

The secretary handed him a resume. “This candidate is a bit special. We need your opinion.”

Johnny took it, then blurted in surprise, “Silvia? Why is she applying to the Stars Group?”

The secretary replied, “The interviewer asked. She said she wants to earn money through her own efforts and feels the Stars Group is the fairest company in Mandino City, so she applied here.”

Johnny smiled. “She’s got good taste.”

The secretary said, “She’s actually quite capable. Seems like she prepared a lot. But because of her background, no one felt comfortable making the call, so we’re bringing it to you.”

Silvia’s resume wasn’t impressive aside from her educational credentials, almost no internship experience.

But her design work was strong. She’d won many awards in school, and her submitted sketches were fresh and creative. The interviewers had debated, then decided to defer to Johnny.

He nodded thoughtfully. “Hold it for now. Aria’s coming this afternoon. I’ll ask her.”

The secretary nodded. “Understood.”

At 3 pm, Aria and Owen arrived at the Stars Group headquarters.

The two front desk girls widened their eyes in surprise when they saw them.

Owen had changed into a top in the same color palette as Aria’s. Though they weren’t holding hands, they were standing very close. It was hard not to assume something.
