Divorce to Destiny: Reclaiming My CEO Husband

06 Memories?



06 Memories?

(Jayden)

It really is her. I saw her picture when my head of digital marketing brought this small firm to my attention. I see him kiss her and anger swells inside me and I get a flash of something. A pain in my head and Winona in a similar suit and me kissing her and wishing her luck for an interview.

Then the pain is gone and the only thing I feel now is annoyance. How unprofessional of them. Aren't they supposed to be business partners? I mean she has every right to move on but for some reason I can't shake the anger right now. 1

Her eyes are locked onto mine and her face reddens:- push open the door and stride in as if I couldn't care less. I have a very lucrative contract in my hand and it will get signed today.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

I place it on the desk. "It's all in there, you have twenty-four hours to sign. If you don't sign, there will never be another offer from our company."

I remember the last time I told her to sign papers, three years ago. Divorce papers.

She certainly isn't crying this time. She looks great, I mean, really great.

"24 hours is not long enough. I need to have my legal team look over this."

"You don't have a legal team. I've done my homework. I heard you're the best. I only hire the best and I wanted to come and see for myself. You've done well for yourself, Winona."

She glances at her business partner and he gives her a quizzical look. Clearly he has no clue I'm her ex." There's ten million dollars on the table. Life changing money. Sign it and I'll see you in my head office next week. You'll need to relocate of course."

"Now hang on a minute. You aren't barging in here telling me what to do with my life. This is my business and I'll conduct it wherever I please. My firm is here and here it will stay."

"Ten million, Winona, perhaps we'd better at least read the contract..." Her partner says. 1

"Phillip, I'm not sure I'm ready to relocate. I'm settled here."

"I'd like the opportunity to discuss it. This is my deal you said."

I pull the contract back off the table and he almost has a panic attack I think by the look of shock in his eyes. He wants this deal but he has no idea of our history. "Perhaps this firm isn't as professional as i thought. Clearly you two are struggling to get on the same page." Phillip steps forward. "Mr Brennan, I'd like the opportunity to pitch to you independently."

My, he is desperate. I can use this to my advantage. "No. This deal includes you both and relocation is needed. I have a couple of huge campaigns coming up and I can't do that with you in another city."

Winona is staring at me and I know she's very annoyed right now. "You know if you sign with another company I can bring them and your company down if I want to."

"Why would you do that?" Winona asks.

I shrug, "Just good business, eliminate the competition"

"I'm sure we can read through and give you a decision In 24 hours." Phillip says firmly. He clearly isn't going to let this go. I wonder how much influence he has over her?

I throw the contract back down on the desk. "You have twelve hours now." I walk out the door. I know I shouldn't force her hand like this but something inside me doesn't want to let it go.

Since the divorce. Everything has been going smoothly Ashlyn and I got engaged and we are preparing for the wedding. I haven't quite felt the urgency that Ashlyn has for the wedding day, but we love each other, so why rush?

She's been very patient but I know the day is getting closer and I want to make sure everything in my business is ready so I can spend extra time on a honeymoon without worry. I also need to help her with some major decisions like venues and catering. So, I'm working from my home office today.

She doesn't know I've seen Winona again, I'm not sure how she'll take it. But honestly it was quite accidental.

Last week, when I was vetting the firm's financial position, I noticed my digital marketing department was bleeding money. I told everyone in that department I'd be getting another firm to oversee what they were all doing. While they hadn't lost their jobs, this time, they have all been demoted.

Nobody takes my money and power for granted. You don't get to be a billion-dollar company by letting departments work inefficiently. I think this wedding has taken my attention too far away from my business dealings.

I made my personal assistant scour every digital marketing firm she could find in the country and give me a list of the best. I was looking for a diamond in a pile of rocks. It was a long shot, but unorthodox ways have worked for me before. Then I saw Winona's picture at the top of the list.
