My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 133

Laura immediately dialed the person’s telephone number, biting her nails tensely while waiting for the call to connect.

"Kelly! Oh, thank goodness you finally picked up," Laura was relieved to hear Kelly’s voice from the other end. "It’s me, Laura. Can you give this phone to Andreas?" she asked hastily.

After hearing Laura Kiels, Kelly wasn’t happy with how she called their boss’ first name. She knew they had a special relationship, but how could she casually call him that?

"Excuse me, Miss Laura, did you mean Mr. Corby?"

Laura didn’t bother answering Kelly’s question. Instead, she said, "Kelly, don’t ask. Just give him your phone! I need to talk to him now. This is very important..."

Kelly’s expression became even grimmer upon hearing Kelly’s bossy request.

"I’m sorry, Miss Laura, but you can not talk to Mr. Corby now. He is in the middle of a meeting," Kelly said.

Kelly was worried now. Her furious boss had been upstairs for almost an hour but had not returned. He didn’t even bring his cell phone, too angry to learn that the newly appointed CEO had tried to fire him from the company.

"Listen, Kelly... this is very important. If you don’t give this cell phone to Andreas, we will most likely face a big lawsuit," said Laura irritably. "Now, take this damn cell phone to Andreas. Now!"

"Miss Laura, even though I want to give this cell phone to him, I can’t..." Kelly said calmly, holding back her annoyance at hearing Laura curse.

"What do you mean? Why can’t he take my calls?" Laura stopped in her tracks and froze, annoyed by Kelly’s words.

Kelly sighed silently as her patience began to wear thin while talking to Laura Kiels. If only this woman were not their number one actress, she would hang up the phone.

"Right now, Mr. Corby is in a meeting with the new CEO of Quantum Capital, so, Miss Laura, I can’t disturb them just because you ask..." She said politely, even though inwardly, she was starting to curse her. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Argh!! Fine… Fine… But you have to tell him that S Jewelry might sue us if he doesn’t clean up the mess he made!" After ending the call with frustration, Laura slammed her phone onto the bed. Then, she storms to the bathroom, fuming. She decides to head into the office to meet with Andreas and discuss this matter.

Kelly was speechless. She looks at her cell phone screen, which has now turned dark.

"Why would SJ sue us?" She muttered while placing her cell phone on the desk and continuing to read some files on her laptop, ignoring Laura’s warning.

While at Bella’s office.

The tension in the room grew intense upon Jack’s arrival, and he joined in on the silly plot Bella and Leo had created and started.

He was immersed in his role as someone who would receive a verdict from Bella. Jack settles on the single sofa opposite Bella and Leo.

After Jack confirmed that his brother-in-law, Andreas, was looking at them, an evil smile appeared on Jack’s lips before he started to speak.

"Bella, please, I beg you to forget about this. I know that my family is causing problems for this company, but as a friend, can you just let this go? Please don’t send him to prison or sue him for anything..." Jack’s voice sounded sincere as he pleaded.

Hearing Jack’s pleading shocked Andreas. He turned his gaze away from Jack and toward the new CEO, Arabella Donovan.
