Trash Husband, I'm the Top novel Chapter 157

Half an hour later.

The CEO’s office, once spotless and orderly, now looked like the aftermath of a barroom brawl.

Daniel and Louis lay sprawled on the floor, both sporting fresh bruises across their handsome faces.

Louis was the first to struggle to his feet. He straightened his rumpled shirt, then glanced down at Daniel.

“Daniel, I know I was harsh, but if you want to spend your life with Aurora, you need to change your attitude. The way you see things—it has to change, too.”

“She needs respect from the man she loves, not more pain.”

“As for Payne, the decision’s yours. If you go through with it, I’ll owe you. If not, I won’t force your hand.”

With that, he turned and strode out.

The assistants outside immediately lowered their heads, pretending to work. The commotion from inside had been impossible to ignore, even if they wanted to.

Through the half-open door, they caught a glimpse of their normally untouchable boss lying flat on his back on the floor…

“Do you all want to lose your jobs?” Will muttered, glaring at them as he closed the door behind him.

Daniel continued to stare at the ceiling, Louis’s words echoing in his mind.

You don’t know how to love someone the right way.

You always have to force things.

But what does “right” even mean when it comes to love?

He didn’t care about right or wrong. He only knew he wasn’t about to give up.

After lying there for another ten minutes, Daniel finally got up and told Will to call someone in to clean up the mess. He grabbed his car keys and left.

Will hurried after him, speaking quietly, “Today, Ms. Quinn’s meeting was arranged by Ms. Cooper. The guy she met—he’s a thug.”

The whole point had been to humiliate Aurora.

Originally, the plan was for the thug to pose as a wealthy businessman and try to seduce Aurora, but Jordan changed his mind at the last minute. Monica had to scramble, so the thug ended up going in as himself.

By now, Will had no idea what Daniel was thinking. He tried, “So, how should we handle this?”

“Handle it?” Daniel’s laugh was cold. “Will, are you bored? Meddling in things that have nothing to do with you? Maybe you want a new job?”

Will immediately apologized, “I’m sorry, sir.”

After that, neither of them brought up Aurora again.
