President’s Secret Obsession With Ex-wife

After sending that message, she knew Nick wouldn’t reply, so she used her work number to send him another message.

?Mr. Andrews, is the compensation money directly transferred to your account? Give me your card number.】​​

Just a minute ago, she borrowed money, and now she was using it to pay off debts. Victoria felt no guilt whatsoever.

When Nick saw this message, his brow furrowed. Where did she get so much money? Weren’t they still renting a house with her husband?

The damaged car could be covered by insurance, and initially, he asked Alexia to compensate just to make things difficult for her.

Now, with Victoria stepping forward to take responsibility, Nick never expected her to come up with eight million in cash.

Just as he was about to reply, Aidan called, asking him to join for drinks.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Nick casually grabbed his jacket and drove to the bar.

Victoria had come to the bar tonight to discuss borrowing money with Lena. Now that the matter was easily resolved, she started thinking about Nick’s house, as the construction team still hadn’t been finalized.

Lena mentioned she was going to accompany James Nate and left after taking a call.

Victoria didn’t plan to stay longer, but as she was about to leave, her shoulder was tapped.

“Poppy, what a coincidence.”

Hearing the voice, Victoria turned to see Lucas’ face.

Lucas was dressed in his usual playboy style.

“Heard you had a falling out with Martinez?”

Lucas chuckled and glanced around.

This area was a booth, and the atmosphere was a bit noisy.

“Come to the private room with me? Maybe we have something to talk about.”

Lucas’ eyes kept flashing with desire. He really wanted something to happen with Victoria, but considering she was Nick’s wife, he didn’t dare to make a move.

Victoria had already clarified things with him last time, and she assumed Lucas wouldn’t cross the line. So, she nodded.

Concerning the construction team issue, she did want to talk to Lucas.

However, upon entering the private room and seeing the people inside, she felt her scalp tingle.

She knew Lucas had ulterior motives; he loved to stir up trouble.

Inside, there was Nick, Aidan, and other sons and daughters.

“Poppy, play a couple of games with me. I can help you with the construction team issue.”

The Three-Beam Group was the largest decoration company in the country, mainly dealing with the handover of projects to construction units.

With Lucas offering to help, Victoria felt relieved. What harm could a couple of games do with so many people present?

So, she sat down with Lucas. However, as soon as her buttocks touched the sofa, she received a disdainful look from Chloe, who seemed almost ready to ascend to the heavens.

Chloe, unwilling to be outdone, forcefully took a seat beside Lucas and rudely pushed Victoria aside. With this push, Victoria ended up sitting next to Nick.

The private room was spacious, with Nick seated in the center, surrounded by other sons and daughters from their social circle. Victoria, now sitting next to Nick, found the distance between them to be quite close.

Due to Chloe’s deliberate retaliation, who continuously nudged her, the fabrics of Victoria and Nick’s clothes instantly clung tightly. Victoria could even feel the warmth of the skin beneath the fabric.

Catching a glimpse of Nick’s furrowed brows from being pushed, she turned her head to look at Lucas, hoping he would intervene.

Lucas, feeling disgruntled from being pushed aside, noticed Victoria’s gaze and raised an amused eyebrow, offering a wry smile.

Chloe, captivated by this smile, arrogantly snorted at Victoria, ceasing her intentional pushing.

Aidan, whose eyes widened the moment Victoria entered, smiled at everyone.

“We just played Truth or Dare. Want to continue?” He held an unopened bottle of red wine in his hand, placing it in the center of the table.

The sofa formed a U-shape, surrounding the table. Some people in the room started to encourage the game.

“Why not? Those of you with girlfriends, be careful. Lucas and Aidan don’t play ordinary games.”

Lucas was known for his open-mindedness, and Aidan, being a scriptwriter, excelled in creating topics between men and women. The atmosphere quickly became ambiguous.

Nick usually didn’t participate in such activities; he remained silent, observing like a spectator, leaning back in his chair.

But Aidan patted his shoulder and introduced him with a smile, “By the way, this is Poppy, Nick’s interior designer. It’s rare for us all to be together tonight.”

As soon as Aidan finished speaking, Chloe coldly snorted again. Aidan didn’t find it awkward. “Nick, join us. You’ve never participated before, it’s boring.”

Nick tossed his phone aside with a casual attitude, saying, “Sure, why not.”
