Chapter 18
When Catherine called me, I had just finished an international video conference. I did not know what she was talking about.
I could tell from the phone that she was indeed very angry. She scolded me loudly, her tone resentful and dissatisfied. Hearing her scold me, I actually felt a bit happy. After all, it had been many years since someone dared to talk to me like this. James, you are hopeless, I shook my head and thought.
Then I got a call from my assistant telling me there was an urgent document I needed to go over. I thought I’d be able to explain it to Catherine in a few minutes, but she wouldn’t open the door and told me to piss off. 1 humbly begged her several times to let her open the door, but she refused. She even said that the kids didn’t need me and that she would call the police. I wanted to explain it to her, but it seemed that she didn’t need it at all, so I drove back to work in a huff
My assistant was standing at my door, startled by the sudden appearance of my car. “I’m sorry,” he said. “I have an urgent document for you to sign, so
I’m here.”
“Come in.” I knew he wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t urgent.
1 took him to the study and calmed down after reading the document carefully.
After signing my name and handing the document to the assistant, I suddenly thought of Catherine. Maybe I should investigate why she was angry first. So, after hesitating for three seconds, I said to my assistant, “Find out what Catherine did this afternoon”
“Your ex–wife?” He looked at me, and I nodded. “Yes. It is what you think.”
“Alright. I’ll get to it now. Please wait a moment.” He carried the document and left the study. Half an hour later, he first sent me some photos and a video and then called me. He said, “As I just sent you, Catherine dated a man named Felix in the afternoon, during which a woman appeared and scolded Catherine and her lads in front of others. The details are clear in the video. The woman’s name is Amy. Sweet dreams and good night.”
“OK.” I hung up the phone and looked at the photos and video sent by my assistant. It was Amy indeed. I only slept with her once, and she was nothing more than a friend with benefits. How dare she call my kids bastards?

Thinking of this, I quickly dialed Amy’s number. Just as I was about to speak, she beat me to it and said, “Honey, why are you calling me so late? Do you

After a long silence, Any sered, “What is it? Did that bitch complain to you? I knew it. She wanted to use those bastards to keep you beside her. See? She is about to get what she wants. James, you are going to be stuck with her again, just like before.”

“Enough” I hang up the plane and had her number blacklisted, regretting that I had ever been in contact with such a woman,

When I arrived at her door, I found that there were a lot of cars parked there. I walked to the door in confusion and pressed the doorbell. This time, I was fully prepared. As soon as she opened the door, I would immediately say what I wanted to say. It didn’t matter if she was willing to listen or not.

At this time, the door opened. I looked up
I didn’t even look at him carefully. Tasked, “Who are you?
He asked me back, “You must be James, right?”
His question made me take a hard look at him. The scene from the video about the café in the afternoon suddenly flashed across my mind. I realized that he was the man who dared Catherine, Felix!
I clenched my fists to calm myself down and pushed him away expressionlessly. “I am James. Felix, please don’t be at other people’s place like some fly. It’s annoying.”
“Lerwise.” He actually dared to speak to me like that.
I thought, what a rude man!
Why did Catherine date this guy? It’s unbelievable,
