After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Maria had been lost in thought for a while, and when she snapped back to the moment, the room had gone silent.

Puzzled, she glanced over at Sidney.

"Hm? Why did you stop talking?"

"I'm done," Sidney replied, his tone cool.

"Oh." Maria nodded, handing the tablet back to him. "Got it. You did great. Keep up the hard work."

She even flashed him a harmless smile, then casually stood up.

"I'm going to dry my hair. Feel free to see yourself out," she said, grabbing her hairdryer from the drawer and standing off to the side as she began drying her hair.

Her arm lifted, exposing the soft curve of her waist, while her long hair cascaded down, filling the air with a faint scent.

Sidney's fingers twitched, his gaze fixed on her back for a long moment.
