Chapter 614
So it suited him just fine that he couldn’t survive in the entertainment industry, as it would force him to go back and
take over the Baldwin Group.
Keith sighed and slowly said, “Even though you’ve already terminated your contract with the company, you can
always come to me if anything happens in the future.”
Hector nodded, “Thank you, Keith.”
“I left the plane ticket for you on the table. I still have work to do, so I won’t be able to see you off.”
“Mm-hmm.”
After Keith left, only Hector was left in the villa.
He drained his coffee, washed the cup in the kitchen, then turned to glance at the villa, its decor identical to that of
Briana’s home. Picking up his plane ticket and luggage, he turned and left.
One day, they would meet again.
Briana saw the news of Hector announcing his retirement from acting, her eyes filled with shock, and immediately
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsent him a message.
“Hector, was your departure from the entertainment industry related to Maxim?”
It took a while for them to respond over there.
“No, you should know, my biological father was the president of the
Baldwin Group in Haseton. He was not in good health and asked me to go back to take over the Baldwin Group.
That’s why I announced my retirement from acting.”
Briana pursed her lips, recalling the time she spent with Hector. She knew that Hector harbored a deep hatred for
his estranged father. Every time his father was mentioned, Hector would lose control of his emotions. She had
always thought that Hector would never reconcile with his father, let alone have anything to do with him. Yet, to her
surprise, he was now choosing to give up his acting career and return to Haseton to take over the family business.
After a moment of silence, she sent a line of text.
Then I wish you a smooth journey!
Closing the chat interface between the two, Briana received a call from Melody.
“Briana, all the hot searches and entries about you on the internet are gone. Was it Hector who did it?”
“It probably wasn’t, I guess it was Maxim.”
Only he could manage to suppress the news so quickly.
“Didn’t expect he finally did something decent!”
Sensing the dissatisfaction in Melody’s tone, Briana lowered her gaze, deciding to tell her about her divorce with
Maxim.
“Melody, I’ve already divorced him. You don’t need to call him a scumbag anymore. Actually, when I think about it,
we both share the responsibility for where we are today.”
If both sides had been willing to give each other some trust, they probably wouldn’t have come to this point.
“Holy shit! Really?! He was so obsessed with you before, and he agreed to divorce so easily?! I can’t believe it!”
Briana couldn’t help but laugh, “Really, the divorce certificate is in my hands right now. If you don’t believe me, do
you want me to take a picture for you?”
After receiving the photo, Melody still found it hard to believe, and it took her several minutes to convince herself to
accept the fact.
“Since you guys are already divorced, we must go out and celebrate tonight!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Alright, what would you like to eat? It’s on me.”
The moment she received the divorce certificate, Briana was somewhat sad, but more relieved. She and Maxim
were wrong from the
beginning, and now it could be considered as setting things right.
“I heard that Southfield Retreat recently got a lot of king crabs, let’s go eat crabs!”
“Alright, I’m going to take a nap first. I drank too much last night. See you in the evening.”
After hanging up the phone, Briana lay in bed, but she just couldn’t fall asleep.
Thoughts of Thomas coming to Bridenville echoed in her mind, then thoughts of her final divorce from Maxim. Her
mind was a mess, she didn’t know how to calm down.
I had barely fallen asleep when the alarm clock rang.
Briana glanced at the time, reluctantly got up to shower and change clothes after lying down for a while, and then
went out after putting on some light makeup.
Just as she arrived at the entrance of Southfield Retreat, Melody ran out from inside and immediately hugged
Briana.
“Briana, congratulations on becoming single again, I’ll introduce you to some young talents in a few days!”
“Forget it, I had no interest in dating at that time.”
