The CEO’s Lovely Wife - Chapter 223

“Nevermind. I’ll dispose of that woman for you. She has some guts to bully my woman.” Lexus chuckled darkly at this. His cold and eerie laugh instantly made Assistant Yu who was standing not far from Lexus quiver in fear.

‘Bully? Me?’ October raised her brow at this. Then suddenly, she remembered what happened that time when she went to Lexus’ company.

“Oh. That woman.” She finally said with understanding. She felt happy about the fact that her husband was upset about it and wanted to avenge on her behalf. Though, she was curious of how he would “dispose” this woman.

“What will you do to her?”

“What to you want me to do to her?” His doting voice sounded sweetly in October’s ear making it warm and ticklish.

“Director, here’s your lemonade.” Yun Xixi cheerfully entered the office with a lemonade in hand. Her smile was wide from ear to ear with a touch of innocence and sunny.

As she neared, she finally noticed that October was not looking at her and was talking to someone on the phone. Her curiosity piqued when she noticed the soft glow on October’s face as she talked to the person on the phone. She inched closer in an attempt to hear a little bit and in doing so, her heart hammered loudly in her c.h.e.s.t in nervousness and eagerness.

October already knew that Yun Xixi was there and acted quite sneakily from her peripheral view. However, she did not bother with exposing Yun Xixi.

“Just hand her over to the officials in your company and deal with her accordingly.” October nonchalantly said. She really does not care much about that woman anymore.

For her, everyone has their own pride and thinking. It’s just how you control that and make decisions in a situation and choose the best option accordingly. But that time, that Lan girl just went overboard.

“You have to re-evaluate your employees. Retrain them thoroughly. It was already good that it was only just me that she acted like that but it would be a different story if she offended clients, big and small. That will affect the image of your company and on to you too.”

“Yes, wifey. I will do just that.” Lexus nodded his head, satisfied with how level-headed his wife was. In fact, he was already doing that.

But wasn’t his wife too level-headed and too calm? And that talk about how to deal with that woman, it was too normal.

He was not satisfied with doing just that. She was just too kind for her own good that it makes him frustrated for her.

Offending his wife was the same as offending him! How can he tolerate that?! There was no way he could let it end like that. Bully his wife? Then he’ll make her pay a million times for what she did.

“Thank you, Xixi.” October said to her sneaky little secretary who literally stretched her neck closer to hers. She got the lemonade and took a small sip from the glass to quench her dry throat.

“Then, I’ll pick you up after work.” Lexus said after making dark plans with a grim look and cold hard smile.

October decided to take another sip of her lemonade.

“Actually, just listening to your voice right now is making me turn on.”

*cough* *cough* *cough*

October choked on her lemonade, making her eyes red and teary.

“Why are you saying this all of a sudden?!” October was so infuriated that her voice went high out of embarrassment. In no time, her face turned crimson red.

Assistant Yu, who was there with his boss the whole time, felt so ashamed of his own boss’ perverted tendecies.

‘What is this? How come I did not know that boss was such a shameless person as to not even bat an eye or show any hint of embarrassment with what he just said?’

Lexus only chuckled at this. “Wifey, do you trust your hubby?”

October furrowed her brows in confusion, her face still red. Still, if there was something she trusts aside from her grandpa, that would be Lexus.

“…yes?” She replied reluctantly, not exactly certain as to where this conversation was going.

“Okay.” Lexus smiled. “I’ll see you later.”

The call ended with October still baffled as to what had just happened. She had just let Lexus ridden her in a roller coaster ride of emotions. Although it was not pleasant, she also did not like it at all.

Yun Xixi quietly stood on the side as she took quick peeks on her boss’ face but could not look straight at it longer than a second. This was because she had just heard something she should not have.

At this, she remembered what CEO Song had just said a while ago. It rang in her ear a couple of times like a ghost taunting her. She wished that she did not eavesdrop on her boss. She wished she did not hear that. If that male god gave her a warning, she could have distanced herself and not listen to their conversation at all.

But regrets are already late. There’s no regret that comes in first.

“How much did you hear?” October asked Yun Xixi, her eyes focused on the fidgeting body of her secretary.

“Ah?” Yun Xixi snapped her head up only to smash eyes with October’s sharp ones. She fell into a quick daze before realizing what her boss had just asked her. Her eyes instantly looked away as she supressed her uneasiness but to no avail.

“I–I…” Yun Xixi was so ashamed of herself that her face just turned deep red and docked her head.

Without even Yun Xixi’s statement, October already what the answer was just judging by how fl.u.s.tered she was and how she could not have eyes contant with her.

The strong urge of wanting to slap Lexus emerged in October. But then, she was also at fault. She already knew that Yun Xixi was eavesdropping and yet she did not stop her secretary and instead indulged her in whatever she wanted to do.

She deeply regretted it now.

“Nevermind.” October felt so exhausted again. “You can go now, Xixi.”

Yun Xixi bowed her head and literally run for her escape with her cheeks burning red. At this while, October followed Yun Xixi’ escaping back before sighing in helplessness.

When it comes to unpredictableness, Lexus was the number one at that tendency. Even October herself does not know what’s in Lexus’ mind. That’s just how deep he was.

“Director…” Yun Xixi’s little head popped inside the office, much to October’s surprise.

October calmed herself down and adjusted in her sit until she was comfortable before saying, “Xixi, come in.”

Yun Xixi was still fl.u.s.tered but that did not stop her from delivering what she had to do. Taking a deep breath, she opened her mouth.

“I’m not sure if I should say this, but the Park family’s stock price in the market is getting lower and lower. It was also said that someone had been being manipulating the stock price of the Park family and that someone’s been buying it.”

October was given a start. Her eyes then widened in shock. There was no need to think hard of who the culprit was because she already knew about who was behind all of this. But she did not expect that her little remark during the weekend will make Lexus really make his move.
