How My Ex Became My Next

Chapter 144
Derick caught up with them at the elevator.
“Mr. Moore, we've fully prepared for this project at Universe Blade Group,
investing a significant amount of capital. If Glory Corporation chooses not to
cooperate with us now, it will be a fatal blow to us. I hope Mr. Moore can give us
another chance.”
Neither Jackson nor Gilda said anything.
As the elevator reached their floor, Derick ran out of reasons. “Mr. Moore, Ms.
Lynch! I still hope we can have a chance to cooperate. We are deeply sorry for
this unexpected event, but cooperation requires adjustments...”
The elevator doors opened.
Jackson and Gilda stepped inside.
“Mr. Lee! Please leave here.”
With those words, Derick’s heart sank, and he could only watch as the elevator
doors closed.
At that moment, Jensen and Lanny approached. “Mr. Lee!”
Startled, Derick faced Jensen. “Mr. Harrington, what is this about?”
Jensen spoke casually, “Today was an eye-opener. However, Mr. Lee, let's not
have such jokes in the future. We're all part of the same circle, and it wouldn't
sound good if word got out.”
Derick felt defeated.
“Mr. Harrington, is there really no room for negotiation?”
Jensen offered some advice, “Mr. Lee, knowing how to use people is one of the
most important abilities for leaders in our position. I don't think I need to teach
you that.”
Derick nodded repeatedly, understanding Jensen's implication.
After everyone else had left, Derick called Ann directly to his office.
“Mr. Lee, I... Before Ann could finish her sentence, she was slapped in the face,
leaving her bewildered.
She covered her face in disbelief, eyes welling up with tears, but she held back
from crying out.
“Ann, do you realize the extent of the damage your actions today have caused
the company?”
Ann lowered her gaze.
She didn’t expect the situation to escalate like this.

“Mr. Lee, I was wrong. I hope you can give me another chance, Ann said
sincerely, a far cry from her previous arrogance.
Derick was furious.
However, he also knew that Ann was usually not as thoughtless as she had been
today. He asked, “Do you have some kind of grudge against Ms. Lynch?”
Ann remained silent...
Derick slammed his hand on the desk. “In that case, starting today, hand over
your work and take an indefinite leave of absence.”
“Mr. Lee!” Ann pleaded anxiously, “This situation isn't as serious as it seems.
Please listen to my explanation!”
Derick could only feel a splitting headache and so he waved her away.
Ann felt indignant but was helpless to do anything else.

She quickly left and returned to her office, slamming the door shut behind her
with a bang.
Then, she made a phone call. “Uncle Donovan...”
Her voice was filled with tears.
Ann's heart was heavy with grievances.
