Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

Knowing Dulcies character, Kourtney felt skeptical that Dulcie would engage in deceitful tactics to ascend the corporate ranks.

This observation led Kourtney to a singular conclusion-Kyson must harbor personal feelings for Dulcie.

Why else would he dismiss the former department head, relocate Kourtney from a branch office, and assign her to oversee Dulcies daily activities? Yet, positioning Dulcie in a logistics role, a department with limited growth and minimal CEO interaction, seemed contradictory if he favored her.

It dawned on Kourtney then-Kyson was shielding Dulcie.

Given the rampant rumors, any direct favoritism would only magnify scrutiny and potentially increase opposition against Dulcie, complicating her situation further.

Pondering the intricate dynamics, Kourtney shook her head and retreated to her office. Dulcie had just completed her rounds, delivering items to various departments, drenched in sweat from the days exertions.

She had been on the move all afternoon without even a moment to sip water.

Exhausted, she finally entered the elevator after delivering the last item, oblivious to her company.

Could you press the button for the 15th floor, please? Thanks, she asked, leaning wearily against the elevator wall.

Oblivious to her, the person behind her was Kyson.

He pressed the designated floor button and then subtly stepped in front of her, observing her tired state.

Dulcie, caught by his piercing gaze, suddenly opened her eyes wider and instinctively averted her gaze, unsettled.

Kyson, noticing her discomfort, broke the silence.

Am I really that intimidating? It wasnt new for Dulcie to seem cautious around him, whether at home or within the office confines.

Was he truly seen as intimidating? Dulcie chuckled nervously, her hands slightly clammy.

Mr.

Shaw, its not that youre scary.

I was just surprised to see you here, thats all. As the elevator dinged upon reaching the 15th floor, Dulcie hastened to exit, only to find Kyson stepping out after her.

She felt a wave of unease.

The existing rumors about her and Kurt were already burdensome.

The thought of speculations involving her and Kyson was too much to bear.

She quickened her pace along the hallway, eager to put some distance between them.

Her previous fatigue had now morphed into stark anxiety.noveldrama
