Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 342

When Everett came out of the elevator, Heriberto’s current chief secretary Wendy Huff immediately walked up with a smile.

Everett nodded, still looking all casual and unserious. He looked Wendy up and down and said, “Wendy, haven’t seen you in a few days, how did you get even prettier?”

Wendy smiled politely, “Mr. Alpinus, you really knew how to make people happy. Knowing you were coming, Mr. Alpinus, how could I not dress up a bit?”

“Tsk, you got a thing for me too?” Everett said casually as he walked to Heriberto’s office.

“Mr. Alpinus was just joking. I might have the thought but not the guts, after all, Mr. Alpinus, you were already taken.”

Wendy respectfully walked him to Heriberto’s office door, “Our president is in the office, please go in!”

Everett nodded and went straight into Heriberto’s office.

In the office, Heriberto was standing in front of the floor–to–ceiling window making a phone call.

The sky outside was almost completely dark, but it was lit up again by the city’s bright, dazzling lights, all shining.

He held his phone, listened carefully to the call, and glanced down with lowered eyes at the busy traffic downstairs.

Deep black eyes reflected the city’s dazzling lights, dark and hard to

Hearing footsteps behind him, he looked back and kept talking on the phone.

Everett didn’t bother him either, just walked straight to his desk, pulled out a chair and sat down, then took out his phone and played on it while waiting.

About ten minutes later, Heriberto finally finished his call and came over. He didn’t waste words and just said, “No time, ask someone else to drink.”

Everett was really worried lately, not much better than Heriberto two years ago.

So, lately he always came to find Heriberto to drink with him.

At the beginning, Heriberto, out of humanitarian concern for his brother, even went with him a few times.

But every time Everett got drunk, he went crazy, grabbed Heriberto. hugged and kissed him, and kept calling him wifey. He really couldn’t take it.

So, after a few times, when Everett came to him again, he turned him down without any hesitation.

Everett looked up from his phone at him, squinting a bit unhappily, “You didn’t even ask, how did you know I came to ink with you.”

Heriberto heard that and said, “Heh,” and then, “Not the best.”

He said that and sat down, took a folder, opened it, and started looking at the files inside.

Everett saw how he totally ignored him and let out a light “tsk” in

protest, “Come on, can you treat me like a person?”

“You’re not human, are you a ghost?” Heriberto replied quietly, not even looking up.

Everett ‘snorted and couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on him.

He crossed his long legs and leaned back in the chair, looking at Heriberto and asked, “Didn’t you tell me before that you suspected Iris didn’t have a miscarriage back then?”

Heriberto really didn’t mention Iris in front of others anymore, except Everett.

After all, they were both down–and–out and far from home now, so they really connected.

Heriberto listened, his eyes suddenly froze on the document, and even his breathing stopped.
