###Chapter 12

708 Words
Evangeline pushed open the office door without hesitation, her pupils immediately contracting. The woman's coat, cosmetics, and handbag were all casually thrown on the sofa. Evangeline approached, biting her lower lip. A black thread was stuck in the gap of the sofa, as if it was showing off to her. And in the trash can, lay the hair bracelet she had given him to wear on his wrist for many years. That was the year when she personally braided a bracelet with her own hair and put it on his wrist, symbolizing that he was already taken. Evangeline bent down and picked up a hair bracelet from the trash can, her eyes stinging. It was as if she could see the Jackson from back then, who was green and shy when he confessed his love to her. "Evie, did you agree to be with me? I will wear this bracelet for a lifetime, you in my heart and the bracelet on my wrist!" Jackson joyfully spun her around in circles, their genuine laughter echoing in the sky above the campus. So, this is what he said, Is the man in the bracelet? Javon caught up and typed on his phone with trembling fingers, trying to explain. Unexpectedly, the more he tried to type faster, the more his fingers became messy and made mistakes. Javon slapped his forehead in frustration. "Look at me, once caught on the spot, even my assistant was so nervous that his hands were shaking." Evangeline pursed her lips bitterly, what a "caught in the act" moment! Javon typed into his phone for voice—to—text conversion. "Mrs. Daugherty, Mr. Daugherty was not what you saw, Mr. Daugherty just let Ms. Wagner rest in his office..." Rest, need to take off the black stockings? Evangeline didn't want to see Javon rack his brains to make excuses and cover up for Jackson. "Mr. Hampton, find someone to estimate my equity." Her shareholding accounts for at least ten percent, and the market valuation will not be less than three billion. Before the divorce, she wanted to cash out her equity, which could be considered as putting a period to her seven years of dedication. "Equity?" Surprise flashed across Javon's face. Anyone who knew that Evangeline was deaf would almost never avoid talking to her, and Javon was no exception. "Did Mrs. Daugherty really misunderstand Mr. Daugherty? They were about to get married, there must be no room for error at this critical moment." He hesitated and typed on his phone, deleting and retyping repeatedly. "Ah, how should I explain to Mrs. Daugherty? It makes no sense to calculate the equity now, the company's funds have been transferred massively, and the company's balance sheet is showing a loss of negative assets." Transfer of funds? Evangeline's scalp tingled, and the color drained from her lips. Jackson had actually transferred marital property in advance, and even her equity had turned into a pile of waste paper. So even if the divorce agreement required him to leave with nothing, she still couldn't get back what she deserved, and even ended up with a large amount of debt. A touch of bitterness and self—mockery appeared at the corner of Evangeline's lips. Once a man's heart changes, the methods used to deal with his wife can be so cruel and vicious! Just a few billion in assets, Evangeline was not unable to afford losing, but she also didn't want to feed this couple of scoundrels for nothing! Javon saw that Evangeline's face was very bad, so he quickly asked the secretaries to tidy up the CEO's office. "What are you guys still chattering about? Hurry up and make tea for Mrs. Daugherty, and quickly have Mrs. Daugherty sit on the sofa to rest." He hurriedly walked to the side and called Jackson to inform him. Anyway, Evangeline couldn't hear, Javon and Jackson called, not deliberately avoiding Evangeline. As soon as the phone was answered, Javon quickly reported, "Mr. Daugherty, Mrs. Daugherty suddenly came to the company for a surprise inspection, but your office is filled with Ms. Wagner's personal belongings. I'm afraid Mrs. Daugherty will misunderstand. Mr. Daugherty, you need to come back quickly and explain to Mrs. Daugherty..."
