Chapter 66
Chapter 66 I no longer felt like a lovesick fool .
1 was clearly the sharp eyed hunter now A slight shock ran through me as I thought , Has Hayden been talking about me with him ? Probably just badmouthing me , I bet .
As you can see , Hayden and Lare about to get a divorce .
Ive got to make a living somehow , right ? Men cant be relied on in the end .
I gave a slight smile , my tone calm , but the words that followed were infly cold .
If it hadnt been for Yasir showing up , I might have forgotten that I could switch suppliers and make even more money .
Yasir opened his mouth , at a loss for words .
We sat in silence for a couple of minutes before he finally came up with a new offer .
Fifty fifty , Ill keep an eye on Hayden and Joanna .
How does that sound ? He still thought I cared about Hayden , trying to use him to get in my good graces I scoffed and shook my head , unimpressed .
Haydens not even worth two percent of the profits .
Yasir didnt understand me at all .
Now , Hayden wasnt even worth my time anymore .
Right now , he was less important to me than the soup in front Yasir froze , his jaw nearly hitting the floor , staring at me in shock .
Perhaps it was because of how crazy I had once loved Hayden , doing so many by irrational things that everyone now thought something was off with me I didnt know how long the dead silence lassed before Yasir spoke again .
Yonne , are you really getting a divorce ? Yasir asked , disbelief clear in his voice .
He had always heard rumors that Hayden was planning to divorce me for a new woman , but now it seemed like it was me who truly wanted out I raised my eyes to him coldly .
Does it amuse you ? Yasir couldnt help but feel a chill run through him .
Oh my .
Yvonnes a completely different person now .
No wonder Hayden was so down last night , drinking alone .
Even Im starting to think twice before messing with her , he wondered .
Yasir , who had been so sure of himself just moments ago , now felt a slight tremor in his resolve Sixty forty , Yasir muttered , his face paling slightly It seemed like Yar had made this concession after a lot of internal struggle , but it wasnt the deal 1 wanted .
Ill take seventy thirty , I said firmly , not willing to budge an inch Yasir rubbed his temples , looking like he was about to lose his mind .
He hadnt expected to be outmaneuvered by someone who had once been a lovesick fool .
Just then , Hayden returned from his call .
As soon as he walked into the living room , I turned to Yasir , reminding him .
There are plenty of people who want to work with me .
If youre not interested ..
Before I could finish my sentence , Yasir reluctantly spat our Deal Yasir had also noticed Hayden entering , knowing that our conversation was about to come to an abrupt end.
If we didnt lock this down now , any second longer could bring new complications .
This was too good of an opportunity for Yasir to let slip by 7:49 PM Chapter 66 Even with the seventy thirty split , Yasir still stood to profit .
1 smirked and took a small sip of my soup .
The soup , which had been bland just moms ago , now had a hint of sweetness Despite coming from the same pot , Yasirs soup tasted distinctly bitter .
When Hayden entered the dining room , he immediately sensed that something was off with the atmosphere .
Jamie hasnt withdrawn the lawsuit yet , Hayden said , his eyes on me .
Til meet him at noon and talk things through , I replied slowly .
Jamie wasnt about to give up so easily .
I had been the one who suggested he sue in the first place , and now it was up to me to make things right.
Hayden didnt press the matter further , and instead , it was Yasir who spoke up.
Yvonne , youre really something .
Youve even handled Nevins case ? Yasir knew a little about Nevin , but not much .
After hearing Haydens words , he seemed a bit shocked .
Not really wanting to continue the topic , I dismissed it with a casual remark .
I didnt really help much So what ? Youre indeed impressive , Yasir said , giving me a thumbs up When he saw I didnt respond , he thought for a moment and then turned to Hayden .
Yvonne is really amazing .
You two are just the perfect couple .
I was momentarily stunned .
The forced compliments were painfully oncious .
Yasir was clearly trying to flatter us , and his intentions couldnt have been more transparent .
I noticed Hayden paused in his soup drinking .
thought to myself .
He must be taken aback by Yasirs clumsy performance , so I thought to Why are you saying that ? Hayden shot Yasir a cold , sideways glance , his eyes icy .
Yasir took the hint and immediately shifted to trying to win me over .
Wonder , youre just too thin .
Have a muffin Yasir gestured toward the plate with muffins , his fi face plastered with a Law a fawning smile I felt uncomfortable , a chill creeping down my spine .
Hayden , sitting beside us , was watching the exchange with narrowed eyes , an unmistakable aura of menice hanging over him .
But Yasir seemed oblivious to it , contiming to insist that feat I thought back to Yasir in the past the rich , spoiled young man from Elysiumville , surrounded by women and never sparing me a glance .
Now , he was practically bending over backward to please me Sure enough , money really does make the world go round , I wondered .
After breakfast , I was about to leave for work when Hayden stopped me .
Youre not fully recovered .
Stay home and rest , he said .
His words were domineering , filled with an air of command .
If this had been before , I wouldve been overjoyed by his concern , but now , my mind was consumed with work .
Im fine , I said , already heading for the garden Yasir followed me , mumbling to Hayden , Yvonne really seems like a different person now .
Did you break her heart or something I didnt care how Hayden responded , and I didnt listen I waited in the car for a while , then Hayden finally joined me .
His face was stormy , and an icy coldness seemed to radiate from him .
Eb Check- Chapter 66 Wellgo work separately from now on .
I can drive myself , I said , breaking the silence , Hayden didnt reply , and the atmosphere in the car grew even colder .
The driver remained silent , acting like a robot as he drove .
Yasirs car followed us for a while , then turned off at a junction .
Soon after , I received a WhatsApp message from him .
[ Yvonne , when can we sign the contract ! Wait for my update ] I replied, then put my phone down and leaned back in the car , trying to rest I had slept for a long time after passing out last night , but I didnt feel completely rested .
Two months of sleepwalking had left me physically drained .
Just a line while later , I dozed off again I was not sure what I dreamed about , but when I woke up .
I felt a coolness on my face .
I reached up and touched it , realizing it was tears .
Did I cry again ? 1 thought , a little surprised .
Why are you crying ? Haydens voice suddenly cut through the quiet , causing me to stiffen 1 had forgotten we were still in the car .
The wind got in my eyes I said , casually pulling out a tissue and wiping my eyes , offering an excuse The driver must have heard us because he silently rolled up the window beside me .
Luckily , I always tracked the window open a little , whether or not the air conditioning was on , or else my excuse wouldve seemed pretty weak .
You .
Hayden was about to say something when suddenly his phone rang I unconsciously glanced at it out of the corner of my eye and saw that it was a call from jeanna .
