Called Off the Wedding, Left Him Bankrupt novel Chapter 146

"Yeah, there's no way she'd just stand by and watch if something happened to VistaSphere Group. She cares too much about the company."

The employees murmured in agreement, casting nervous, fearful glances at Benedict.

With a sharp huff, Benedict spun around, fury radiating from him as he stormed back into his office. Moments later, the unmistakable sound of things being smashed echoed out from behind his door.
