My CEO Wife Panicked After Our Divorce (Audrey and Carter) novel Chapter 68

After a pause, Michael on the other end of the phone exclaimed,,se Then you should go bark and keep her compary. When you have time, I’ll come back with you I haven’t properly visited your morn yet. It’s really rude. Last time at home, something happened, I guess your mom must have been scared

Michael deliberately mentioned the incident when Chris injured f

“Alright then, I’ve got to go now.”

Jessica was eager to see Chris and really didn’t want to deal with Michael

But she was curious what could make Michael so happy.

The entertainment cooperation between the Wilder Group and the Hall Group hadn’t officially signed a contract yet, and Michael hadn’t found a suitable endorser.

Just as she entered the house, Jessica glanced at a message from Indya and instantly understood Michael’s excitement.

Michael’s parents‘ disappointment in him was clearly just a front.

Right after Michael talked to her about the cooperation, another top artist from the Hall family’s other entertainment company was transferred to Michael’s company.

It was clearly to back Michael up and to forcibly boost his status through the popularity of that artist.

Michael was very dissatisfied with only being able to endorse the Wilder Group’s low–end jewelry line but didn’t dare to reveal too much in front of her.

The implied meaning was that he wanted a higher price.

Indya: [The artist transferred to Michael’s company was Jason William, an A–list male artist whose recent films and TV dramas had been hits.]

His value was indeed exceptional, making him one of the hottest newcomers in the entertainment industry and the most valuable male artist of the Hall family.

Jessica handed the dessert box she carried to the butler and looked down to reply to the message.

“I’m back.”

Chris was still wearing the same outfit from earlier in the day, sleeves rolled up, apparently helping in the kitchen.

As usual, Jessica lowered her head to reply to messages and handed clothes to Chris.

This familiar action made Chris’s heart ache, but the next second Jessica leaned over and kissed him.

“What made you want to come home for dinner?”

Chris’s sadness instantly dissolved.

There was still a difference.

Jessica was no longer cold and distant. Compared to work, she seemed to care about him more.

“Mr. Hall said he wanted to come back with you to visit Linda. I thought it’s been a long time since I’ve been back, so I might as well come early to visit.” Chris’s eyes gleamed slyly.

It was the first time he openly mentioned Michael to her, also a way to challenge her.

He was testing her feelings.

Jessica responded with a hum, “He won’t be able to come.”

She pulled Chris inside.

My mom never liked him to begin with. So he won’t be coming for now.”

Only when they reached the sofa did she notice a cat lying there.

Jessica didn’t like such creatures much.
