How My Ex Became My Next

“Anyway, I will always regard you as my family although you divorced Jensen,” Emily said while someone knocked on the door.

Gilda set

the bowl and wiped her mouth with a tissue before saying, “Come in.”

Dillan entered carrying a pile of documents. Upon noticing the outsider, he reverted to his usual serious demeanor and said, “Ms. Lynch, this is the document for you to review.”

It was rare for Gilda to see him so serious. She nodded slightly and said, “Place it on my desk.”

“Yes, Ms. Lynch.”

When Emily recognized Dillan, she was shocked with her mouth wide open. “Dillan, what are you doing here?”

Being addressed, Dillan raised his eyes and looked at Emily. He certainly knew Emily, having been Jensen’s close friend for many years.

Dillan even knew a secret about Emily.

Dillan replied with a vague smile, “I work for Glory Corporation!”

Now, Emily became even more shocked to learn that the successor of Miller Corporation was willing to work for Glory Corporation.

Emily wanted to ask more questions, but Dillan didn’t give her the chance. He looked straight at Gilda and said, “Ms. Lynch, if there is nothing else, I will leave now.”

Gilda nodded. “Okay.”

Emily felt a jolt after he left. She vaguely sensed that Dillan was not as friendly to her as before.

“Emily, what else can I do for you?” Gilda asked, bringing Emily back to her senses, and Emily remarked, “Nothing. Have you finished your soup? I’ll wash the bowl.”

“No, thanks. I’ll do it myself.”

Emily was left alone in the large office after Gilda left.

Emily got up and approached Gilda’s desk to look at the document Dillan had just brought over. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

When Gilda returned, Emily had already sat back on the couch.

Emily hurriedly got up and grabbed the box. “Gilda; I’ve taken up a lot of your time. I should get going now. I’ll come to see you another day.”

After saying that, Emily was about to leave.

Gilda didn’t invite her to stay any longer. She called the secretary and said, “Help me walk her out!”

Emily refused immediately, “No need, Gilda. I’ll walk out by myself.”

“Well then, have a good day.”

After leaving Glory Corporation, Emily took out her phone and made a call excitedly. “Guess what I have for you!”

“Is it a trade secret?” a sluggish male voice asked from the other end of the line.

The man guessed it right.

Emily had done this kind of thing more than twice.

Emily said complacently, “You’ve been working on the Llandre project, right?”

The man was taken aback. “Llandre project? We’re considering giving up. Dillan from Glory Corporation is such a

badass. We have no chance to win.”

Emily chuckled and asked confidently. “If I tell you that I got the bidding price of Glory Corporation, do we have a better chance to secure this project?”
