Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25

Ethan sounded a little apologetic. “I’m really sorry to bother you while you’re still resting.”

“It’s alright. I’ve rested enough. Go ahead.”

After listening to the issue, Autumn calmly helped him analyze the situation and even outlined several possible

solutions.

On the other end, Ethan suddenly saw the light and chuckled. “Autumn, I knew it. With you around, we can always count on getting things resolved.

“I can’t wait for you to come back. You’ll save us so much time–maybe we won’t have to keep working overtime.

“I’m looking forward to it too.”

By the time they hung up, it was already past four.

Without realizing it, they had talked about work for over an hour.

Autumn opened her laptop.

She hadn’t worked in three days, and her inbox was filled with unread emails.

She carefully read through each one, replying one by one, making comments and notes when needed.

Autumn approached her work with great seriousness.

Every email received her full attention, and she made adjustments wherever necessary.

By the time she finished replying, the sky outside was completely dark.

A glance at the clock showed it was already 7:30 p.m.

She closed her laptop, stretched, and got up with her cup, heading downstairs.

Zoe spotted her coming down and brought over a bowl of oatmeal. “Ma’am, since you didn’t have much appetite this afternoon, I made you another bowl of oatmeal. Eat it while it’s hot.”

Autumn thanked her, took the bowl, and sat at the dining table, slowly sipping.

Just then, the front door opened.

Julian was back.

Today, he wore a gray suit, his features clouded with fatigue.

When he saw Autumn at home, he didn’t react much.

Zoe hurried over to take his briefcase.

“Sir, Mrs. Carter just came home this morning. She didn’t have much appetite, so I made her some oatmeal.”

1/3

“Mm.” Julian responded without much interest.

Zoe returned to the kitchen and brought out the dishes.

Though the table was filled with delicious food, Autumn had no appetite.

She barely took a few bites before standing to clear the table.

Julian wore a dark expression.

When he crossed paths with Autumn at the doorway, he brushed past her without a word and headed straight to the dining table.

He didn’t spare her a single glance, and Autumn did the same.

The two of them might as well have been strangers.

Autumn picked up her bowl of oatmeal and walked toward the kitchen.

Zoe came over and, seeing the nearly untouched oatmeal in the bowl, asked with concern, “Ma’am, are you feeling unwell? You barely ate anything.”

Autumn shook her head. “I’m fine. It’s just been so hot lately. I don’t have much of an appetite.”

Zoe still looked uneasy. “Ma’am, you’ve been eating so little lately. Is your stomach acting up again? Do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup?”

“There’s no need. I’m not feeling sick anywhere, just haven’t had an appetite,” Autumn replied after a slight pause, then shook her head.
