Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 302

Yuliana didn’t act melodramatically to refuse Christopher’s offer just because of her self-esteem. After all, she and

Rowan really needed a suitable place to live.

“Okay,” she replied softly. “Since there’s nothing else, I’ll stop disturbing you. I’m leaving now.”

Christopher didn’t look at her or speak.

Yuliana was silent for two seconds and left the study room.

Silence ensued in the study room.

It was a cloudy day with gray skies.

Christopher sat quietly for a while. He didn’t know if it was because of the medicine, but he actually felt a little

sleepy.

Since Kendrick’s accident, he hadn’t slept well for a day. It was not that he didn’t want to sleep, but he couldn’t

sleep at all. At most, he slept for four or five hours every night. He was tense during the day and didn’t feel sleepy

at all.

He closed his eyes and took a rest. Before he knew it, his consciousness blurred.

Christopher had a dream. In the dream, he returned to Maple Garden. At that time, he and Yuliana were not

married yet. Yuliana hated him quite a lot. She was cold and distant, and she never had a happy expression

whenever she saw him. It was really annoying.

But the more she acted that way, the more he couldn’t help but want to annoy her on purpose. At least, he was no

longer just a cloud of air that she could simply ignore. In the dream, Christopher was like a bystander. Watching him

and Yuliana quarreling and messing around back then, he actually wanted to immerse himself in it and didn’t want

to wake up.

After Yuliana left the study room, she went back to her room. She was going to sort out her luggage and dispose of

what she didn’t need. But when she walked around the room, she found that there was not much she could pack

except for Rowan’s items.

She used to live in Oceanview Apartment with Christopher and only occasionally went back to the Solace residence

for one night. After Kendrick had an accident, she discussed with Christopher about staying in the Solace residence

so that she could look after and spend time with Winnie as well. She didn’t bring too much luggage, and what she

needed was purchased separately.

Yuliana took her suitcase and packed her belongings first.

Hailey noticed Yuliana hadn’t gone downstairs for a long time, and Rowan began to cry again. Hence, Hailey carried

Rowan to look for Yuliana. Unexpectedly, when Hailey entered the door, she saw Yuliana coming in and out and

putting

clothes in the suitcase.

Hailey was stunned for a moment and asked, “Yuliana, are you moving out with Mr. Solace?”

After seeing his mother, Rowan babbled while stretching his body toward Yuliana, asking her to hold him.

Yuliana got up and took the child from Hailey’s hand, then gently stroked his back to comfort him. The little child

immediately calmed down.

Yuliana replied, “I’ll go back to stay at Oceanview Apartment with Roe.”

Hailey was stunned again and didn’t understand what Yuliana meant.

Yuliana didn’t explain too much. She added, “Hailey, please help me get two more cartons to hold the toys that Roe

likes.”

Hailey came back to her senses and answered, “Okay.” Then she went downstairs to get Yuliana the cartons.

But when Hailey went downstairs, she felt that something was wrong. After hesitating for a while, she called Joyce.

“Mrs. Solace, I’m Hailey.”

At this moment, Joyce was sitting in the office and staring at the man sitting on the couch. She asked Hailey,

“What’s the matter?”

Hailey said, “Yuliana wants to move back to Oceanview Apartment with Roe.”

Yuliana told Joyce that Christopher was going to divorce Yuliana. Hearing Hailey’s words, Joyce reacted like this. She

frowned and kept silent for a moment before saying, “Got it. I have something else to deal with. I’ll talk to Yuliana

later.”

Hearing what Joyce said, Hailey felt a little relieved.

Putting down the phone, Joyce leaned back against the chair and stared at the man opposite her for a few seconds.

Then, she asked coldly, “What are you doing here?”

The person sitting on the couch was none other than Oliver. Oliver smiled and looked at Joyce. He didn’t answer her

question immediately.

Just then, the office door was pushed open. Joyce’s assistant brought in the coffee. When the assistant put the

coffee in front of Oliver, she glanced at the man’s face. She thought he looked familiar as if she had seen him

somewhere.

“Thank you,” Oliver said to the assistant.

The assistant withdrew her thoughts. She smiled and turned around to leave the office.

When she left the office, she suddenly remembered that the reason she felt familiar was that the guest looked a bit

like Christopher, and his temperament was a bit like Kendrick’s.

Oliver picked up the cup and took a sip. The coffee was excellent. It was mild and mellow with some sweet

aftertaste. It could be seen that it was an excellent coffee that was carefully selected. However, he couldn’t help

but frown. “I remember you don’t like drinking coffee.”

Joyce didn’t want to deal with him and said perfunctorily, “I didn’t like it before, but it doesn’t mean I don’t like it

now. People’s preferences change.”

She withdrew her gaze from Oliver and looked down at the documents in front of her. At the top was a document

drafted by her subordinates regarding the materials needed to be procured. She needed to review and approve it.

Other than that, there were also some other miscellaneous documents.

However, she didn’t know whether it was because of Hailey’s phone call or because of Oliver. She couldn’t focus on

the purchase order in front of her at all.

A trace of irritation appeared between Joyce’s eyebrows. She looked up at Oliver again. Oliver had already put

down the cup and was leaning against the back of the sofa with his legs crossed. His gaze was also fixed on her.

“If there’s nothing else, please leave.” Joyce’s tone was a little unkind.

Oliver didn’t get angry. He even smiled and said slowly, “If there’s nothing, then I won’t come to Solace Corporation

to see you.”

Joyce paused and didn’t say anything, waiting for Oliver’s words.

Oliver paused and continued, “I came here to talk about business with you.”

Joyce didn’t answer immediately. She seemed to be contemplating his words. After a while, she said, “You should

know that I’m only in charge of Solace Corporation’s Administrative Department, and you shouldn’t talk to me

about business.”

Oliver raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “Although the top leader of Solace Corporation is your brother-in-

law, you are the one who is attending to the affairs behind the scenes, right? So why do I have to go around talking

to the new Acting Chairman? Isn’t it more direct and effective if I just discuss this with you?”

Joyce said with a half-smile, “You know quite a lot about Solace Corporation.” Then she asked seriously, “What do

you want to talk to me about?”

“I want to talk to you about investment,” Oliver said with a relaxed smile. “I heard that Solace Corporation is short

of money recently, so I plan to invest a sum of money to help Solace Corporation get through the difficulties.”

Joyce’s expression changed slightly. She looked at Oliver with deeper eyes.

Everyone was working for the sake of benefits, so there was no way that Oliver would do such strenuous and

unrewarding things.

Solace Corporation was in a situation where industry insiders know more or less

about it, even when they didn’t talk about it clearly.

It was impossible that Oliver would invest in Solace Corporation at this time. Besides, Solace Corporation had a

huge shortage of funds at present. If it was only a small amount of money, it wouldn’t be sufficient to solve the

current predicament. But looking at Oliver’s confident look, he must have known the situation of Solace Corporation

clearly and obviously prepared for it before coming over.

In the afternoon, while Rowan was asleep, Yuliana packed all her belongings. She had already dealt with the items

she didn’t need or had to be dealt with.

Only the items that needed to be used at night were still left outside.
