Chapter 2006
Misha's speech angered Gordan. 'It was Vivian who suggested divorce, and now she's sending alawyer over to negotiate with me. What is she plotting at?'novelbin
"I can only talk about my requests with Vivian. Even though I'm in a hurry to divorce, I'll not sign thisagreement. Pass my word. If Vivian doesn't take the initiative to talk to me, we'll just drag this onforever. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry," Gordan said and hung up the call.
He was not afraid that Vivian would regret it and refuse to divorce him.
Currently, the divorce papers that had been signed were in his hand. If the worst situation were tooccur, which was Vivian regretting it, he would just sign the papers and submit them.
He would sell the villa after the divorce and transfer half the money to Vivian's account. That way, hewould not owe her anything.
Gordan had it all planned out, and he really was not in a hurry. He believed that Vivian would show uponce Misha passed on his words.
His mood changed, and he got up to go to the door. He pushed the door opened and bumped into themaid who was standing outside the door.
"Sir." The maid did not expect him to suddenly come out. She lowered her head to hide her anxiousexpression.
"Were you eavesdropping?" Gordan squinted his eyes and looked at the maid. She was someoneVivian sent over.
In other words, she was a spy sent by Ray to be by his side. For all these years, that maid had reportedtons of things to Ray.
"No, sir. I was just standing here, wondering when would you come out so that I can order the kitchento get dinner ready," the maid denied it.
"You don't have to explain. You've been getting so much information from me throughout all theseyears and have reported tons to Ray. You should know that I'm about to divorce Vivian now.Regardless of how this villa is going to be settled, Vivian will not want it. So, you may leave," Gordansaid as he hated being under surveillance.
He had no choice in the past as Ray would always want to arrange people here so that he could besure Vivian was not harmed. It was to ensure her safety.
Vivian now wanted to divorce him, so naturally, these people would have to leave. After all, once thedivorce papers were signed, he would not be related to Ray.
Those people would not have the right to keep an eye on him.
"Are you firing me, sir?" The maid was surprised. After all, two days had passed. Gordon had nevermeant such words in the past. However, he was not hinting that he was about to fire her.
"I'm not the one who hired you. Now, go back to your boss and be his slave. Aren't you supposed to befollowing your master?" Gordan knew she had eavesdropped and was not mad. After all, the days ofhim being under surveillance and being controlled would soon be over.
"Sir, Ms. Vivian had previously said that she wants me to stay back to take care of your day-to-day," themaid said. The man, who was still in rage half an hour ago, had suddenly changed his expression. Itwas quite scary.
"I said I don't need you." Gordan got impatient. Both his eyes and tone were scary. "You've betrayedme so many times. Do you think I'm clueless about it? Are you sure you want to continue to stay here?Right now, I'm not related to your boss. It'll be as easy as squashing an ant to defeat you."
The maid was terrified that she fumbled. She took two steps back as she was afraid she might get intotrouble. "I-I'll take my leave for now, sir."
"Bring along those people and get lost." Gordan placed both his hands in his pockets and firedeveryone in the villa.
"Yes." The maid dared not defy him and immediately went downstairs.
That man was not influential, but he was much scarier than most of the underworld organizations.
Previously, she had the guts to eavesdrop and keep an eye on Gordan because Vivian was stillaround. Besides, it was a task assigned to her by Ray.
Currently, Vivian was no longer in the villa. No one was going to placate Gordan's fury when he wasmad. No one could help the maids out.
Leaving the place was the right choice.
Gordan looked at the maid who was making her escape. She brought along the chef, the gardener, andthe driver. He smirked.
'Vivian suggested a divorce yet Ray still wants to keep an eye on me? What a joke!'
After an hour, everyone who left arrived at Ray's villa.
After listening to the maid's report, Ray frowned. Gordan did not immediately fire them, and he had notsubmitted the divorce papers either. After hearing from Misha, he was suspecting whether or notGordan was reluctant to be separated from Vivian. Perhaps he had not taken any action all this whilebecause of his pride.
However, Ray came to know that it was not because Gordan missed Vivian but because he wasunhappy with the contents of the divorce agreement.
'He's still not satisfied when Vivian has left the entire villa to him?'
Ray looked at the maid and asked, "What else did he say?"
"Nothing. He asked us to leave," said the maid. Ray had asked her to eavesdrop on Gordan but shefailed. The soundproofing of the bedroom was too good. If he did not speak loudly, no one could hearfrom the outside.
"I got it," Ray said. The maid was shocked to see Vivian coming downstairs.
"Why are you here?"
"Ms. Vivian, I was chased out by Mr. Norton. Not just me, but the other maids and chef of the villa havebeen based out as well," said the maid. All the maids in the villa were sent by Ray.
"Why did he do that?" Vivian looked at Ray. All these maids were cautious and had always servedGordan well. She wondered why he would suddenly chase everyone out.
"Don't bother about him. Since you guys have been chased out, you all should head over to the butlerto handle registration procedures. He'll arrange jobs for you guys," Ray said. Initially, their salaries weregiven to them by deducting the money from Vivian's bonus. Hence, it would be the same if they werehanded over to the butler.
Besides, their house was so huge. The addition of a few more maids would not seem like there weretoo many people.
"Thanks, sir." The maid let out a breath of relief when she heard Ray was still willing to keep them.
Vivian saw the maids backing off and started to feel sad when she thought of Gordan being left alone inthe villa
He was a proud man who would not enter the kitchen. He would not pick up any cleaning tools to doany cleaning either. 'Now that the maids have been chased out, what will happen to him?'
"Are you thinking about him?" Ray was able to figure out what was on her mind by just looking at her.
"It's impossible that I'm not thinking about him." Vivian smiled bitterly. Even though she had decided toleave Gordan, she still loved him.
For the time being, she was unable to let go of the feelings.
"He chose this, so don't be sad. It's not worth it." Ray took out a cigar but did not light it. He just toyedwith it in his hand. Then, he looked at Vivian. "I got Misha to call him. He hasn't signed the divorcepapers."
Vivian felt her heart skip a beat. She could not help but fantasize. 'He chased all the maids out too. Ishe reluctant?'
"Do you want to know the reason behind it?" Ray said, puzzled when he realized she did not ask forthe reason in the first instant.
"Whether or not I want to know about it, the result is still the same, isn't it? Anyway, it won't be like whatI think it is." Vivian knew the reason deep down in her heart.
