30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 169

Some days ago, Cole had already heard that the Silverbrook New District project was being spearheaded by Holly, marking her first foray into the company’s initiatives.

The thought of Jason’s past entanglement with Holly, coupled with her remarkable comeback, naturally sent a shiver down Cole’s spine.

What exactly was the deal between Jason and her, and what was their status now? Cole tried not to care about that, but he disliked when personal emotions got entangled with professional matters. It was just like how, over the past few years, despite Estrella’s marriage to Jason, their respective families’ businesses had kept their emotions at bay, avoiding any overlap.

But with Jason knocking on his door, Cole found himself in a tight spot, and he simply looked at Jason, asking, “So, what are you getting at, Jason?”

After Cole’s prompt, Jason cut to the chase. “I’m hoping you could pass on this project to Innovative Solutions Inc..”

Though Jason didn’t mention Holly, Cole knew exactly what he meant. After a long stare at Jason, Cole finally spoke, “And what if I don’t want to give up on this project, Jason?”

At this moment, for Cole, it wasn’t the project that mattered most. It was Estrella-how his daughter would feel weighed heavily on his mind.

As Cole’s words settled, Jason didn’t beat around the bush, admitting, “Cole, the Silverbrook project is Holly’s first project after she got into the company.”

Hearing this, Cole fell silent. Jason knew he had to lend a hand to Holly in her first prost back, but had he considered Estrella’s feelings?
