Chapter 52
• When Kenneth returned to the company, he did not look too happy.
• Noticing it, Fabian asked, "Are you okay, Mr. Hamilton?"
•
Kenneth snapped grimly, "Of course!"
He definitely argued with Natasha.
·
After thinking about it for a while, Fabian asked carefully. "Mr. Hamilton, is Ms. Watson really your ex-wife?"
•
He had been yearning to ask that for a long while.
•
Kenneth fell silent for a moment before nodding.
•
•
•
•
Having received the answer, Fabian quickly rushed forward. "Mr. Hamilton, you're in the wrong now. With her beauty, charisma, and demeanor, how is she not up to your standards?" Kenneth was speechless.
"Yeah, you're very exceptional and powerful too, but Ms. Watson doesn't pale in comparison at all! She's like a goddess. Mr. Hamilton, aren't you letting a treasure like her go to waste?" Kenneth narrowed his eyes. "So what?"
Fabian was rambling. When he heard Kenneth gritting his teeth, he immediately changed his words. "In my opinion, you and Ms. Watson are a match made in heaven. "
Kenneth, who was on the brink of losing his temper, suddenly did not feel so angry after hearing that.
"Really?" he asked with a raised eyebrow, deliberate feigning nonchalance.
• "Of course!" Fabian nodded consecutively and complimented them, "If both of you are together, your child would be... even more exceptional than anyone else! I can't even imagine it!"
• When he said that, Kenneth could not help but think about the twins.
·
Regret filled him.
• If he had not gone overboard back then, perhaps, the two kids would have grown up.
•
If he had given both of them a chance back then, things might not have turned out like this.
• "Mr. Hamilton, if you were to ask me, I think that women aren't actually angry even if they act like it. They just want you to coax them." Fabian kept coming up with ideas. He was so good at flattering that Kenneth was no longer angry.
•
Returning to his senses, Kenneth started chatting with Fabian. "How should I coax her?"
• "You don't know how to?" asked Fabian in surprise. However, when he glanced at Kenneth's face, a revelation dawned upon him. He nodded and said, "Yeah, it's mostly girls coaxing you. They won't dare to lost their temper at you!"
•
That's why I say that Natasha's ungrateful!
•
Feeling excited, Fabian leaned forward on Kenneth's desk and beckoned him to come closer with his finger. "Mr. Hamilton, it's like this. If a woman dares to be angry with you, it means that she's not after your money. Someone like her is even more authentic. Well, I think that Ms. Watson is pretty authentic. She's not fussy or fake."
• Not only did Natasha dare to lose her temper at him, but she was also the one who requested for a divorce, even though he kind of forced her to. Furthermore, she did not ask for anything at all.
•
• "So? What should I do?"
·
After thinking about it seriously, Fabian suggested, "While it might seem challenging, it's not all that difficult. You just have to be earnest. For a woman like her, you need to move her with your sincerity." "Sincerity?"
• "If someone doesn't like money or power, it means that she likes you as a person! As long as you show your sincerity, it'll all work out perfectly!" assured Fabian.
• "How can I show my sincerity?" asked Kenneth..
• "That'll depend on you. For example, you can pay attention to what she likes to eat, watch, play, or care about. These tiny details can prove a man's sincerity the best!" explained Fabian.
• When Kenneth thought about it, he realized that he did not really know anything about Natasha.
·
Noticing Kenneth's confusion, Fabian asked, "Mr. Hamilton, there's no way you don't know that, right?" He stared at Kenneth in a mixture of speechlessness and exasperation.
•
When Kenneth saw that, the look in his eyes changed. "Yeah! So what if I don't?" As he spoke, he stared at his desk.
•
Realizing that he was so engrossed in the conversation that he had crossed some boundaries, Fabian smiled sheepishly and took a step back. "I was too excited. Too excited!"
• "I think that you're finding this job too easy and would like to transfer to another department," said Kenneth.
·
"No, Mr. Hamilton! I'll go and work right now!" Before Kenneth could say anything, Fabian spun around and left.
• When he opened the door, he bumped into Thea who was also entering.
•
"Ms. Jarman!" greeted Fabian.
• "Is Kenneth inside?" asked Thea.
•
He glanced at Kenneth and nodded. "Yeah..."
•
She walked in directly.
·
Watching her, Fabian lamented secretly. It's a troublesome thing to have so much luck in love too!
•
With that thought, he closed the door behind him and left while shaking his head exasperatedly.
•
•
The moment Thea saw Kenneth in the office, everything that she had been dying to say suddenly seemed overly deliberate. Kenneth broke the silence first. "Why did you come back?"
Thea walked over and sat down opposite him. "I'm worried about the company, so I came back to take a look."
• "Have fun. Don't think so much," replied Kenneth.
•
Staring at him, Thea opened her mouth a couple of times. However, she could not make herself ask about Natasha directly.
• After thinking about it, she asked, "Oh, right. Kenneth, do you know about Gaston from Prime Investment Corporation being arrested?"
• Kenneth was reviewing the documents. When he heard that, he nodded expressionlessly. "Yeah, I do."
• "What do you think happened? Why did he get arrested all of a sudden?" asked Thea tentatively as she shot a glance at him.
• "What goes around comes around eventually," said Kenneth as he looked up. "Perhaps, it's time."
• Thea fell silent for a few seconds. She could not get any useful information from his words.
·
Smiling, she replied, "Yeah. It's a matter of time before someone like Gaston gets arrested."
• Kenneth raised his eyebrows lazily, signaling his agreement.
• A gloomy feeling surfaced within Thea as she stared at him. She asked, "Oh, right. Why did Ms. Watson look for you? Her arm is injured too. She's fine, right?"
• "It's about some private matters," answered Kenneth casually before frowning. "Her injury should be fine."
•
•
It was impossible to discern whether Kenneth cared about Natasha just by looking at his expression. In fact, it seemed like he was clueless about her injury.
However, when Thea remembered how Kenneth looked at Natasha that day, she was convinced that he was deliberately concealing something.
•
"Kenneth, are you going to... remarry Ms. Watson?" asked Thea, unable to hold herself back.
•
This was a question she needed to be clear on. She urgently wanted to know the answer.
•
Remarry?
•
Kenneth was stunned when he heard that, for he had never thought about it before.
•
However, remembering how Natasha had repeatedly tried to draw clear boundaries with him, he said, "She probably hates my guts."
"What about you?" asked Thea. "After losing your children, don't you hate her too?"
Kenneth fell silent.
