Chapter 0134 I didn't go straight to Nicholas, but instead called Yasmine to meet me. By the twe arrived at Nicholas' office, it was already late afternoon.

As we pushed open the office door, the first thing that cinto view was him reclining in his executive chair 1 his eyes closed, resting.

He was bathed in the soft orange glow of the setting sun, and his white shirt made him look unusually gentle. His chin was slightly raised, and his once sharp profile was now softened.

The dark brown hickey on his long, sturdy neck was particularly noticeable against the sunset's light, clearly showing the effort I had put in last night.

It was a rare, serene image of a handsman, but Yasmine was not accustomed to such sights. As soon as she entered, she stumbled and kicked the corner of the coffee table in front of the sofa.

Nicholas opened his eyes, immediately alert. His gaze hardened with a sharp intensity when he saw a stranger, but it softened once he recognized me.

It was as if the tumultuous thoughts in his mind had gradually settled, and he began to regain his composure and calm.

Frowning, he looked at Yasmine in displeasure with the kind of innate pressure that even I could feel from beside her.

in less than an hour, Yasmine had becthe new owner of Jay Caldwell & Co. She was holding the documents but didn't seem very pleased.

So, I quickly pulled her hand and guided her out of the office The pen rolled off the table and fell to the ground, causing Nicholas to huff in annoyance.

"What's with the huffing? Did he forget how to spe Did they leave him behind during the human purification process or something? Yasmine muttered irritably.

I could tell he was angry now. I wanted to turn around and offer scomfort, but Yasmine, in a burst of energy, pulledout the door.

She shoved the contract into my hands and said, "Ari, I don't want this anymore. Even if you don't can tolerate this, I can't. Cwithand divorce him.
