A Presumptuous Request
"Mr. Giblo, if you divorce Ms. Lierger, how will you divide your assets?"
"Yes, Mr. Giblo. Previously, there was a rumor saying you have transferred all your assets to Ms. Lierger. If you're going to get a divorce, will she be the new president of Giblo Group?"
"Mr. Giblo, are you not the biological father of the three kids?"
"Mr. Giblo, rumor has it that Mr. Lierger is making a comeback. Will that affect your relationship with Ms. Lierger?"
"Mr. Giblo, have you processed your divorce with Ms. Lierger?"
"Mr. Giblo, is the divorce related to Mr. Chroma?"
Boris frowned upon hearing the questions. They found out about the divorce this soon. Looks like I'll have to proceed with it. Newton is scheming enough to make me his puppet. I'm completely under his control.
He ignored the journalists and strode into the building.
When the journalists tried to give chase, they were stopped by the security guards.
After Boris entered the elevator, Mosa was about to inform him about his schedule when his phone rang. He picked it up and greeted, "Hello."
"I hired a secretary for you. He will arrive at Divine Corporation later. Make the necessary arrangements, " Newton commanded.
"Mm, got it."
Boris couldn't say no, for Newton was calling the shots. He would have to do everything Newton wanted, including sacrificing his own life.
He vowed to get rid of the man once the Giblo family's assets belonged to him.
"I'm paving the way for the divorce. When everything's done, you'll have to carry out the divorce proceedings, " Newton added. "All right. You can go back to work now."
With that, he cut the line.
Boris was annoyed. He assigned a bodyguard last night and a secretary today. All he wants is to keep an eye on me. I have no choice but to accept his arrangements.
"Mr. Giblo, are you really going to proceed with the divorce?" Mosa plucked up her courage to ask, "But you love each other. Why are you—"
Boris glared at her. "That topic is off limits."
Mosa lowered her head and fell silent. After returning to her office, she sent Carla a text to update the latter about the situation.
Back at Northridge, Carla jolted awake from a nightmare. She scrambled up to shower and change her clothes so she could leave to find Randy and Josh.
Rogan helped her and said in a comforting voice, "Ms. Lierger, calm down. Charles hasn't sent any news yet. Why don't you go back to sleep until he sends us an update?"
"I can't wait here and rely on Charles. I need to figure out something myself."
A while ago, Carla had dreamt about her kids being tortured. It felt like an iron shard piercing through her heart, so she couldn't wait any longer.
"But you…" Rogan was about to say something when Carla's phone rang. The latter immediately answered the call. "Hello, Mr. Domitos."
"Carla, are you seriously going to divorce Mr. Giblo?"
"Divorce?" Carla frowned. "What is going on?"
"There's a rumor saying you're going to get a divorce. Just watch the news, " Jamal told her. "The company's going through a massive personnel reassignment right now. Many new strangers are being planted inside the company. If this goes on, he'll end up taking control of Giblo Group. You need to figure out a solution soon."
"Got it. I'll go read the files now." Carla's frown deepened. "I'll figure out a solution before contacting you and Mr. Thompson."
"Someone must be spying on him, for he can't be contacted right now. I'm at a loss. Why don't you contact Mr. Lierger and ask for his help?"
As Jamal had run out of ideas, he made that presumptuous request.
