Billionaire's Unforgettable Ex-Wife-Chapter 843 - 525: Flaunting Wealth

Robert Weston looked a bit awkward for a moment, then the woman stood up and said, "I’m ready, let’s go."

"Oh, okay," Robert Weston glanced at Ivy Miller once more before turning around. The woman linked her arm with his and asked while walking, "Honey, what are we having for lunch today?"

Robert Weston replied with a slightly drifting voice, "You decide."

"Then let’s have Sichuan food, it’s been ages since we’ve had something spicy."

Ivy Miller continued walking forward, but she didn’t head straight out; instead, she went to the bathroom first.

There was no special reason other than not wanting to bump into Robert Weston in front of the elevator again.

Because it wasn’t necessary.

She felt rather grateful that the man hadn’t greeted her earlier, otherwise, it would have been awkward.

While Ivy Miller was hiding in the bathroom, she received a call from Henry Sullivan.

Henry Sullivan asked her if she was still adjusting to the company.

She boastfully replied, "Relax, I’m a charming woman; I’ll fit in anywhere."

"Don’t be too cocky and drop the ball, be careful of those who might have bad intentions towards you.

Don’t end up taking a hidden loss like last time; I dislike seeing you bullied."

Ivy Miller nodded, feeling warm inside, and said with a smile, "I know, don’t worry, I’ll be fine, and I won’t let myself be wronged."

"Alright, are you off work now? Time to have a meal, right?"

Ivy Miller raised her wrist and glanced at it; five minutes had passed: "I’m just about to head to eat, but I haven’t decided on what yet. Uncle, have you eaten?"

"Not yet, I just got home. Today, little Ivy was very well-behaved, with three nannies looking after her, making it easier for them."

"That’s good; the only thing I worry about when I’m at work is our little Ivy.

I always fear she might not adapt well. But if she’s doing well, I can be at ease; Uncle, please go dine, and I’ll get ready to head downstairs."

"Wait a minute, there’s something I want to discuss.

I’m thinking of purchasing a villa in the suburbs; this would make it convenient for both of us."

Ivy Miller thought for a moment: "Is it necessary? It’s already convenient for me with a driver arranged by Dad, sparing both early morning and late night commutes.

Why bother buying another villa, which would mean more running around for both of us, tiring and giving us less time with our little Ivy."

Henry Sullivan pondered, "Let’s consider it an investment. The renovation will take time anyway, and we can decide later.

Plus, Hunter just developed a property over there; we can choose a location we like this Sunday and finalize it."

Ivy Miller did not object further, and after hanging up the phone, she sighed, thinking that having money is quite nice.

The idea of buying a villa, wanting one just by swiping a card and entering a password.

People often say being wealthy is capricious, which is indeed the truth.

As she turned and exited the bathroom, a female colleague walked out from another stall.

Uncle? Buying a villa? This woman was personally sent by the CEO.

Could she be the CEO’s... The female colleague shivered, feeling somewhat terrified.

Ivy Miller went to eat at the downstairs cafeteria, which still resembled its former self.

She finished getting her food and walked to a corner seat with her tray.

Soon, a silhouette sat down across from her; Ivy Miller looked up in surprise, "Manager Tan, is it really you?"

"Ivy, it really is you; I thought I was mistaken when I saw you getting food."

"It’s me; I didn’t expect to encounter you here."

"I have to eat too, and the department isn’t too busy lately, so meal times are more relaxed."

Ivy Miller ate while saying, "Thanks so much for your help back when I was in the Translation Department; I know you took care of me a lot."

"Oh, no need to say that; I didn’t really do much to help.

After you left, I investigated a bit within the department, and everyone said Team Leader Liu was indeed quite harsh towards you.

Although she got her comeuppance in the end, being fired by the CEO, which at least helped you vent your frustrations.

What happened is all in the past; let’s be broad-minded and not dwell on it."

Ivy Miller nodded while eating, thinking she wasn’t really holding a grudge; she’s not a petty person.

"Do you still have contact with Team Leader Liu? I hope she’s been well; I do think her expertise was quite impressive.

Back then... I was too young, and couldn’t control my temper; thinking back, I had my faults too."

Manager Tan shook his head: "Oh, don’t mention it, Team Leader Liu is rather pitiful.

When she left the company, her affair with Manager Phil was exposed.

Because of this, Manager Phil faced disciplinary action.

The news got to Manager Phil’s spouse, who I heard later gathered relatives to confront her violently.

Team Leader Liu ate her losses in silence, unable to resist; after all, her actions weren’t honorable.

I saw her once afterwards, she wasn’t spirited anymore, saying Manager Phil left her, and his wife reclaimed the property he had given her.

She thought after striving for so many years, even if leaving Phil Grant, she would have a place to settle down. But unexpectedly, she ended up in such dire straits." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Listening to Manager Tan’s account of Team Leader Liu’s predicament, Ivy Miller truly felt bad for the woman.

"Where is she working now?"

"She tried applying to several companies, but none allowed her to start at the top again, so she’s been idle.

Sometimes, she does some online tutoring for English; other times, she does some freelance translation work.

It really is a pity, as she genuinely had talent in her profession."

Ivy Miller remained silent, putting down her chopsticks, having finished eating.

"Ivy, have you finished eating?"

"Yes, Manager Tan, take your time eating, I have something to tend to, so I’ll head back first."

"Ivy, are you feeling down because I talked too much about Team Leader Liu?"

"No, no, Manager Tan, don’t misunderstand me; I’m genuinely sorry about Team Leader Liu’s situation.

I’ll think about if I can help by talking to someone."

Manager Tan smiled in surprise, "Really?"

Ivy Miller knew Manager Tan always liked Team Leader Liu; well, it’s understandable since everyone appreciates capable colleagues.

"Yes, though I can’t promise success, please don’t have too high expectations of me."

"Any chance is better than no chance; Ivy, thank you."

"You’re welcome, Manager Tan, I’ll be going now."

"Alright."

Ivy Miller placed her tray by the sink and left.

Before she could return to the office, her phone rang, and she glanced at the screen to see it was Robert Weston.

She shook her head, put the phone back in her pocket, and ignored it.

However, after the call ended, a message arrived. This time it was a text.

Ivy Miller opened it, the content was concise: "I’m at the stairway behind you, let’s talk."
