Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 423 A Peculiar Taste

Jonathan used to be the director of the company, yet he wasn't mature nor was he reliable. There wasn't really anyone who wished to befriend him.

In the past, this was something he didn't care much about. However, lately their indifference towards him was getting on his nerves. He knew other people's opinion mattered. Jonathan strove hard to think of a way to deal with it.

Without friends, it would prove to be extremely difficult to do the things he wanted to do. When this realization dawned upon him, Jonathan couldn't help but understand he had lived the past 30 years as a failure.

Thompson, on the other hand, arrived at the Shi Group. He found a parking spot and got off his car. Carefully, he surveyed the view of the building. A big group like the Shi Group was known by almost every citizen of the city.

When Jacob handed over his resignation, the story made its way to the news in an instant. It caused an uproar amongst the public.

After all, it wasn't some small news. The Shi Group was considered the strongest group in this city and anything having to do with it would have people's attention. It sent shock waves through the public. It was said that Jacob decided to step down voluntarily because of the scandal of his affair.

From all this, one could easily make out that reputation was vital to the Shi Group. This rumor pertaining to Jacob had been discussed by almost everyone. Lots of people considered it nothing but a fun topic to discuss. Very few people took it seriously.

With time, people's temporary curiosity died down. At this point, no one really cared enough to get to the bottom of the matter.

For the spectators, it was just another hot topic they could laugh about. To sum it up, no one genuinely cared.

Presently, Thompson's eyes scanned the tall building towering into the sky. A frown crept into his face. He was certain one person's departure hadn't harmed the company in any way.

The people of the Shi Group continued to work vigorously. Sunlight glinted off the windows of this tall building.

Thompson's polished shoes were also glinting under the spell of sun. He squinted his eyes and looked up. He noticed the clouds were quite thick and the sun was struggling to pass through it.

With a deep sigh, he stepped into the Shi Group. He remembered the events of the past with better clarity than Jonathan did.
