My CEO Wife Panicked After Our Divorce (Audrey and Carter) novel Chapter 309

Chapter 309

Indya sighed, placing her hand over her eyes to block out all light.

She said, “Let me think about it.”

Previously, Anthony had met with Indya.

At first, Indya refused to see him, but for some reason, after whatever Anthony said, the two of them ended up sitting in the cafe downstairs from the company for an entire afternoon.

Before that meeting, Indya’s attitude toward Blake had been fairly good.

She had even seemed willing to accept Blake’s pursuit.

But after that meeting, Indya began to distance herself from him.

All of this was what Shannon had said.

She was worried and had wanted to ask what Anthony had told her, but Jessica stopped her.

Indya’s own matters were hers to resolve–she didn’t need anyone else’s help.

“You all should get some rest first.‘

They were staying in a suite, as were Blake and Indya, who lived next door.

“Do you think those two…” Chris asked after watching Indya leave and shut the door.

“Do you think there’s some kind of problem?”

Jessica nodded.

She could tell that Indya did like Blake.

Someone as good–looking as Blake–unless one was blind–feeling an attraction was only natural.

But if she clearly felt that attraction, and someone like him said he wanted to pursue her, Indya should at least give him a chance.

Things had been fine before.

It must have been something Anthony said.

“Forget it, don’t overthink. After flying all day you’re tired. Come here, I’ll give you a massage,” Chris said when he noticed Jessica rubbing her temples again.

He patted his leg, inviting her to lie down.

The spacious room carried the hotel’s signature fragrance.

They leaned against each other.

The atmosphere grew more and more heated.

When a waiter came pushing a cart with dinner, Chris only rasped out a hoarse, “Leave it at the door.”

Shannon and the kids from the team stayed on a lower floor.

The next morning, she took them to the venue, while the others slept in.

When Jessica opened her eyes, she immediately felt the warmth beside her.

Chris was still half–asleep, disturbed only by messages on his phone.

It seemed to be Francesca reporting on the hospital’s situation.

After all, he was still the chairman–he couldn’t just ignore everything.

Most matters were relayed to Chris by Francesca.

That included updates on the Hall family.

“After Frederick finished Luke’s diagnosis, he was to be transferred to the police hospital. Mrs. Zorro begged Thomas to provide money to smooth things over, but he refused. Now the two families are about to quarrel.”

Hearing such explosive news first thing in the morning jolted Jessica wide awake.

But she didn’t get up.
